()-2-(4-ethoxybenzylidene)-3,4-dihydro--naphthalen-1-one single crystal: Synthesis, growth, crystal structure, spectral characterization, biological evaluation and binding interactions with SARS-CoV-2 main protease.

A new α-Tetralone based chalcone compound, (2E)-2-(4-ethoxybenzylidene)-3,4-dihydro-2H-naphthalen-1-one () has been synthesized by Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction of α-Tetralone () with 4-Ethoxybenzaldehyde () in basic medium. Then it was allowed to grow through slow evaporation solution growth technique. The molecular structure of grown has been systematically characterized by SCXRD, FT-IR, H NMR and C NMR spectroscopic studies.

Protein-ligand binding interactions of imidazolium salts with SARS CoV-2.

The disease called severe acute respiratory syndrome () is a lifestyle intimidating viral contamination affected by a positive, single stranded novel RNA virus () from the enveloped coronaviruse family. The COVID-2019 virus has affected many people, scattering promptly, and researchers are attempting to find out medicines for its effectual cure in all over the globe. Chloroquine () and its derivatives, an older drug used for the cure of malaria, is exposed to encompass a perceptible feasibility and commendable well-being in opposition to SARS CoV-2 associated pneumonia clinical trials conducted in China.
