This review provides a concise yet comprehensive overview of conventional and emerging strategies for chalcone synthesis. Classical Claisen–Schmidt condensation remains the cornerstone approach, relying on acid- or base-catalyzed aldol condensation of aromatic aldehydes with ketones.

In parallel, modern methodologies including photo-redox catalysis, biocatalytic transformations, and metal or metal-free nanoparticle catalysis offer innovative routes for constructing structurally diverse chalcone derivatives with reduced ecological impact.

This study evaluates the antibacterial efficacy of FZCM NPs against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. The magnetic NPs was identified by various techniques such as FE-SEM, EDS, HR-TEM, DRS, XRD, VSM, ICP, Zeta potential, and XPS analysis. Based on the morphology analysis, the average crystalline size of FZCM was about 10 nm. Also, the presence of Fe, Zr, Cu, and Mo elements in the structure of FZCM NP was identified by EDS, ICP, and XPS analysis. According to the obtained result from DRS analysis, the bandgap energy value of FZCM was equal to 1.7 eV. The antibacterial activity of FZCM was assessed against Gram-positive (<i>S.

Also, inhibition zone diameter (mm), minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) concentrations tests were investigated. The inhibition zone diameters for <i>S. aureus</i>, <i>B. subtilis</i>, and <i>E. coli</i> were measured as 16 mm, 35 mm, and 32 mm, respectively, demonstrating strong antibacterial effects. Additionally, MIC and MBC values confirmed the antibacterial performance of FZCM, with particularly high efficacy against bacteria.
