Chromone compounds belong to a class of organic compounds closely related to benzopyrones. They are distinguished by their chromone moiety, featuring a benzopyrone ring system with a C-2 ketone group. The interaction of chromones with various molecular targets has been elucidated. These compounds have been found to modulate the activity of enzymes including c-Jun N-terminal kinase, cyclooxygenase-2, and lipoxygenase. Additionally, chromones have demonstrated the ability to modulate the activity of ion channels, such as the voltage-gated calcium channel and voltage-gated potassium channel.
