We prove that a class of weighted semilinear reaction diffusion equations o
n R-N generates gradient-like semiflows on the Banach space of bounded unif
ormly continuous functions on R-N. If N = 1 we show convergence to a single
equilibrium. The key for getting the result is to show the exponential dec
ay of the stationary solutions, which is obtained by means of a decay estim
ate of the kernel of the underlying semigroup.
