Abstract
This work reveals the synthesis of chalcones which are derived from 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid, through its keto derivative. First of all by means of Jones oxidation the hydroxyl group of glycyrrhetinic acid at position 3 oxidized to keto group. Then α, β-unsaturated ketones (enones) are produced when this keto group is treated with different benzaldehyde through Claisen Schmidt reaction. We also prepared potassium and sodium salts of all these compounds. By mean of thin layer chromatography reactions are monitored and by means of chromatographic techniques reaction products are purified. By using spectroscopic techniques like MS, 1HNMR and IR 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid derivatives are characterized. By the presence of all the possible peaks 1HNMR spectra confirms the products formation. The Claisen Schmidt synthesis has been done successfully this is shown by the existence of aromatic proton. Their fragmentation pattern and mass spectra of all the compounds discussed in detail with schemes. Almost same fragmentation pattern is shown by all the compounds. Fragments had shown by all the compounds at m/z 262, 55, 135 and 303 along with other fragments. Formation of potassium and sodium salts of compound 3, its keto derivative and of chalcones confirmed by the IR of salts.

Introduction
Licorice (Leguminosae, Glycyrrhizaglabra) is a naturally occurring perennial plant and cultivated in Asia (especially the central and Europe (the Mediterranean) and South-Western parts. It was used in Indian cultures, and ancient Assyrian, Chinese, Egyptian and appreciated by ancient Greeks and Romans. It also, used as a medicine for diseases in the respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, genitalurinary systems, as well as for eye, skin and other diseases. It was used in Arabic medicine, and, from the Middle Ages onwards, in Germany, Italy, Spain and England. The root of this plant (Radix Glycyrrhizae (Liquirtiae), has a sweet flavor, now is generally used for the treatment purpose of gastric ulcer disease and upper respiratory tract diseases. It also used as a flavoring agent and sweetening in the tobacco, food industries and pharmacy. The active ingredient of Licorice is the glycyrrhizin, triterpenoidsaponin, mixture of potassium, calcium and magnesium salts of GA (Glycyrrhizic acid) [1].
GA consist of 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid an aglycone, GE(glycyrrhetinic acid) also exists in two form 18β (cis) and 18α (Trans) stereoisomers [2]. The chemical structure of the glycyrrhetinic acid (GE) molecule has great potentials for variations leading to derivatives [3]. For the generation of new drugs many structural conversions have been planned, involving alkylation, esterification, and reduction reaction [3- 5]. GA or glycyrrhetinic acid but in some cases, both are used in many in vivo and in vitro studies, antibacterial antiulcer antiviral neuroprotective activities, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, hepatoprotective, antileishmanial and also used as cell-protective and chemo preventive effects [6,7]. Blood coagulation factor Xa inhibited by anticoagulant activity that is shown by glycyrrhetinic acid and its analogues, also have properties against adult worms of Brugiamalayi and microfilariae [8,9]. Glycyrrhetinic acid and its analogues are also recognized, as inhibitors of adipogenic differentiation via the phosphorylation of protein kinase B/Akt, and as stimulators of lipolysis through hormone-sensitive lipase/ HSL activation, due to their antiobesity activity [10]. Now a day, they are marketed on the basis of promising pharmacological activity of this active constituent of Glycyrrhizaglabra L. It involve e.g. preparations of glycyrrhizin for patients with liver disease [1,11].
Licorice root extracts have been discovered by men in early times due to their antiviral properties. Fiore et al have been reviewed antiviral effects of Glycyrrhizaglabra L. the derivatives of glycyrrhetinicasiatic acid, oleanolic acid have exposed their activity against Human enterovirus 71 (EV71). Western blot and reverse transcription (RT)-PCR analyzed the inhibitory effects of this derivative on EV71 replication. The influenza A virus infection have been revealed by the interesting antiviral activity of these compounds which are in vitro. Simultaneously treating them with different concentrations of glycyrrhetinic acid derivatives and by infecting MDCK cells with influenza A H3N2 virus the antiviral activity of the glycyrrhetinic acid derivatives was determined. Against several DNA viruses these analogues have also exhibited high activity. Against Hepatitis C virus (HCV), Van Rossum et al and Kumada et al. reported the potential of glycyrrhetinic acid while against Hepatitis B virus (HBV) Wang et al. offered the biological evaluation, structure-activity relationships and synthesis of glycyrrhetinic acid derivatives [12].
In current years, against resistant microorganisms and antibiotic susceptible the phytochemicals and antimicrobial activity of plant extracts have been estimated. Antimicrobial properties was recognized by glycyrrhetinic acid [13].
By using the agar diffusion method Licorice root extracts have demonstrated the significance of gram-negative bacteria (Pseudomonasaeruginosa, Escherichia coli) and anti-bacterial activities against gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis) [14]. The synthesis of RNA and DNA, proteins without membrane distraction was inhibited by glycyrrhetinic acid [15]. Peptic ulcers are also treated by Licorice and glycyrrhizin. Against clarithromycinresistant strains glycyrrhetinic acid exhibited effectiveness. In an additional study against 32 hospital strains of Actinobacillus and 55 hospital strains of S. aureus, evaluation of glycyrrhetinic acid activity was performed [16]. Also MIC of streptomycin, isoniazid, rifampicin and 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid or its derivative, against drug‐resistant Mycobacterium bovis have been significantly decreased by the the synergistic effect of 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid [17].
Anti-parasitic properties of selectivity and amazing efficacy revealed by phenolicsalkaloids and terpenes derived from natural plantproducts. Against certain parasites e.g. diterpenes (cryptotanshinone), simple monoterpenes (espintanol), iridoids (amarogentin), sesquiterpenes (artemisinin), and limonoids (nimbolide) terepenes, have been demonstrated their activity. In order to increase effectiveness of the resistant anti-malarial drugs by using GE with anti-malarials are supported against drug resistant strains [18].
Materials and Methods
Various compounds construction by oxidation of compound 3 at carbon-3 position followed by its conjugation with various compounds like dehydrozingeron [19]. Amino-alkyl derivatives of glycyrrhetinic acid exhibits excessive cytotoxicity and synthesized derivatives i.e., ester and ethers have extensive variety of biological activities [20]. Similarly, amino acids derivatives showed increased cytotoxicity against several human cancer cells and current work is the modification of compound 3 to form chalcones and its potassium and sodium salts [21].
Synthesis of Chalcone Derivatives of compound 3
Jones oxidation leads to keto derivative which through Clasien Schmidt synthesis with different benzaldehyde to produce chalcones (14-21) as shown in figure. IR, HNMR spectroscopy and MS spectrometry helps in determining the structure of all compounds and mass to charge ratio value of each fragment is discussed in detail.

IR Spectroscopy
By means of IR spectroscopy the different functional groups present on compounds can be easily determined. With respect to IR the most important functionality is the Carboxylic (-COOH) group and the characteristic functional groups are α, β-unsaturated carbonyl (-C=C-C=O) group, and secondary hydroxyl (-OH group).
The carboxyl groups (-COOH) of these molecules are produced from the carbonyl (CO) and hydroxyl (OH) groups having different infrared (IR) spectral signals. In carboxylic acids and their salts, the OH stretching bands appear at 3700 cm-1 to 1700 cm-1. The absorption is not zero even at the lower-limit region, but it is weak.
The OH stretching absorption goes below 1700 cm-1 while weak absorptions on top of these bands in the 2900 cm-1 region as the CH stretching bands and combination bands are below 2800 cm-1. At 3100- 2800 cm-1 the aliphatic CH stretch bands are located [22-24].
The average carbonyl double bond (C=O) position for the acid species is 1723 ± 12 cm-1. At 1257 ± 20 cm-1 the average single carboxyl bond (C-O) position is situated.
The high position of (C-O) band indicates that for all these species R-C(=O)-OH group is not ionized. Salts produced are ionized groups (R-C=OO-) and between the two O atoms the negative charge resonates.
At 3441 cm-1 the secondary hydroxyl (-OH) and carboxylic group appears, while the aliphatic CH shows the signal at 2943 cm-1 which is adjacent to the 12-position of carbonyl group. In literature it is found that aliphatic CH comes below 3000 cm-1 while the sp2-CH comes above 3000 cm-1 but this carbonyl has sp2-CH at11-position. Signals at 1685 cm-1 and 1454 cm-1 is the characteristic signal of carbonyl group (-C=O). We have two carbonyl groups, one is carboxylic group and other isα, β-unsaturated carbonyl group.α, β-unsaturated carbonyl (-C=O) group appears at lower stretching frequency While the stretching frequency of carboxylic group appear at 1195 cm-1.
C-OH hydroxyl group appears at 1010 cm-1. The Hydroxyl (OH) group in potassium salt (22) appears at 3306 cm-1, in compound 3 it was appeared at 3441 cm-1 while aliphatic CH shows signal at 2931 cm-1. For compound (3) low frequency of 1628 cm-1 shows the formation of salt at 1685cm-1 carbonyl signal of carboxylic acid appeared. Now at 1408 cm-1 carbonyl group of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl appears which was previously at 1454 cm-1. As compared to its starting material the frequency is lowered in the salt. The disappearance of signal for (C-O) of C-OH hydroxyl group in glycyrrhetinic acid at 1195 cm-1 confirms the salt formation. Signal of (C-O) glycyrrhetinic acid appeared at 1010 cm-1 but now they are appeared at 991 cm-1.

Conclusion
We have completed modification for the synthesis of chalcones and potassium and sodium salts from 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid at C-29. Keto group is produced from hydroxyl group at 3-position with the help of Jones oxidation. Chalcones are produced through Claisen Schmidh reaction of different benzaldehydes with this 3-keto-18β-glycyrrhetinic acid. With the help of IR, 1HNMR and MS characterization of 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid derivatives was determined. Claisen Schmidt synthesis has been completed successfully this is indicated by the presence of aromatic protons. Aromatic protons are confirmed by the presence of peak in very downfield region. Formation of sodium and potassium salts of compound 3, its chalcones and keto derivative are confirmed by the IR data of its salts. Same pattern of fragmentation shown by almost all the compounds along with other fragments m/z 262,55,303 and 135 shown by all the compounds.
