Synthesis of potentially photoactivatable coumarin derivatives via a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition

JOURNAL OF HETEROCYCLIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 5 2008
Elodie-Denise Chenot
A copper (1)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction was used to prepare a series of mono and disubstituted 1,2,3-triazolyl-coumarins using a 1,3-cycloaddition ("Click Chemistry"). Starting coumarins were synthesized using classical or modified Pechmann's reaction. The propargyl group was introduced as either propargylether or as a propargylamide. Azides were prepared in a three steps procedure. Cycloaddition products, containing a coumarin and a photoactivatable moiety, were obtained in good yields. [source]


Analysis of the interaction of substituted coumarins with the DPPH free radical by means of multivariate statistics

JOURNAL OF PHARMACY AND PHARMACOLOGY: AN INTERNATI ONAL JOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCE, Issue 9 2004
Demetris Vrakas
The interaction of some substituted coumarin derivatives with the stable 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical was analysed by means of multivariate statistics using a variety of molecular descriptors. The compounds contain a conjugated double bond system, which was considered to be an essential structural characteristic for the free-radical scavenging activity. Partial least-square analysis led to an adequate two-component model based on bulk descriptors and the electronic properties concerning atoms involved or next to the double-bond system. [source]

Abstract Numerous plant-derived compounds have been evaluated for inhibitory effects against HIV replication, and some coumarins have been found to inhibit different stages in the HIV replication cycle. This review article describes recent progress in the discovery, structure modification, and structure,activity relationship studies of potent anti-HIV coumarin derivatives. A dicamphanoyl-khellactone (DCK) analog, which was discovered and developed in our laboratory, and calanolide A are currently in preclinical studies and clinical trials, respectively. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In-vitro antimicrobial, thermal and spectral studies of mixed ligand Cu(II) heterochelates of clioquinol and coumarin derivatives

APPLIED ORGANOMETALLIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 4 2010
G. J. Kharadi
Abstract The mixed-ligand heterochelates of Cu(II) with 5-chloro-7-iodo-8-hydroxyquinoline (clioquinol) and various uninegative bidentate ligands were prepared. The structure of mixed-ligand heterochelates was investigated using spectral, physicochemical, elemental analysis and thermal studies. The FAB-mass spectrum of [Cu(A2)(CQ)(H2O)2].2H2O has been carried out. Magnetic moment and reflectance spectral studies reveal that an octahedral geometry has been assigned to all the prepared heterochelates. The kinetic parameters such as order of reaction (n), the energy of activation (Ea), the pre-exponential factor (A), the activation entropy (,S#), the activation enthalpy (,H#) and the free energy of activation (,G#) have been reported. The ligands, metal salts, heterochelates, control and standard drug were tested for their in-vitro antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia marcescens and Bacillus substilis. The metal complexes exhibit good activity against bacterial strains compared with parental compounds, and moderate compared with the standard drug (clioquinol).

Synthesis and Pharmacological Investigations of Some 4-Hydroxycoumarin Derivatives

ARCHIV DER PHARMAZIE, Issue 2 2003
Ilia Manolov
Abstract The synthesis of ten coumarin derivatives of 4-hydroxycoumarin and various unsaturated ketones and aldehydes is described. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, 1H-NMR, and mass-spectral data. Acute toxicity studies of the compounds were performed on mice by oral and intraperitoneal administration. A comparative pharmacological study of the in vivo anticoagulant effects of the derivatives with respect to warfarin, showed that the compounds have anticoagulant activity. Compounds 4-hydroxy-3-[1-phenyl-2-(4,-chlorobenzoyl)ethyl]-2H -1-benzopyran-2-one 2b, 4-hydroxy-3-[1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-oxobutyl]-2H -1-benzopyran-2-one 3a, and 3, 3,- p -bromobenzylidene-bis-(4-hydroxy-2H -1-benzopyran-2-one) 4b showed slight acute toxicity and a greater anticoagulant effect than warfarin.

A Note on Variance Estimation of the Aalen,Johansen Estimator of the Cumulative Incidence Function in Competing Risks, with a View towards Left-Truncated Data

BIOMETRICAL JOURNAL, Issue 1 2010
Arthur Allignol
Abstract The Aalen,Johansen estimator is the standard nonparametric estimator of the cumulative incidence function in competing risks. Estimating its variance in small samples has attracted some interest recently, together with a critique of the usual martingale-based estimators. We show that the preferred estimator equals a Greenwood-type estimator that has been derived as a recursion formula using counting processes and martingales in a more general multistate framework. We also extend previous simulation studies on estimating the variance of the Aalen,Johansen estimator in small samples to left-truncated observation schemes, which may conveniently be handled within the counting processes framework. This investigation is motivated by a real data example on spontaneous abortion in pregnancies exposed to coumarin derivatives, where both competing risks and left-truncation have recently been shown to be crucial methodological issues (Meister and Schaefer (2008), Reproductive Toxicology26, 31,35). Multistate-type software and data are available online to perform the analyses. The Greenwood-type estimator is recommended for use in practice. [source]


Lipophilicity Plays a Major Role in Modulating the Inhibition of Monoamine Oxidase B by 7-Substituted Coumarins

CHEMISTRY & BIODIVERSITY, Issue 2 2006
Angelo Carotti
Abstract A series of coumarin derivatives (1,22), bearing at the 7-position ether, ketone, ester, carbamate, or amide functions of varying size and lipophilicity, were synthesized and investigated for their in vitro monoamine oxidase-A and -B (MAO-A and -B) inhibitory activities. Most of the compounds acted preferentially as MAO-B inhibitors, with IC50 values in the micromolar to low-nanomolar range. A structure,activity-relationship (SAR) study highlighted lipophilicity as an important property modulating the MAO-B inhibition potency of 7-substituted coumarins, as shown by a linear correlation (n=20, r2=0.72) between pIC50 and calculated log P values. The stability of ester-containing coumarin derivatives in rat plasma provided information on factors that either favor (lipophilicity) or decrease (steric hindrance) esterase-catalyzed hydrolysis. Two compounds (14 and 22) were selected to investigate how lipophilicity and enzymatic stability may affect in vivo MAO activities, as assayed ex vivo in rat. The most-potent and -selective MAO-B inhibitor 22 (=7-[(3,4-difluorobenzyl)oxy]-3,4-dimethyl-1-benzopyran-2(2H)-one) within the examined series significantly inhibited (>60%) ex vivo rat-liver and striatal MAO-B activities 1,h after intraperitoneal administration of high doses (100 and 300,,mol kg,1), revealing its ability to cross the blood,brain barrier. At the same doses, liver and striatum MAO-A was less inhibited in vivo, somehow reflecting MAO-B selectivity, as assessed in vitro. In contrast, the metabolically less stable derivative 14, bearing an isopropyl ester in the lateral chain, had a weak effect on hepatic MAO-B activity in vivo, and none on striatal MAO-B, but, surprisingly, displayed inhibitory effects on MAO-A in both peripheral and brain tissues.

CHINESE JOURNAL OF CHEMISTRY, Issue 4 2000
El-Deen Ibrahim Mohey
Abstract 2-Hydrazino-4-hydroxy-5H -[1]-benzopyrano-[4,3-d]-pyrimidin-5-one (3) was prepared via condensation of 2 with hydrazine hydrate. Treatment of 3 with methylene chloride, ethyl chloroformate, ethyl chloroacetate and benzaldehyde yielded the corresponding 2 - ( substituted ) hydrazino - 4 -hydro-xy-5H -[1]-benzopyrano-[4,3-d]-pyrimidin-5-one (4, 5, 6, and 10), followed by cyclization of 4, 5 and 6 with dimethyl formamide and fused sodium acetate under reflux, while compound 10 was cyclized with bromine and sodium acetate in acetic acid. Compound 3 reacted with ,-(toloyl) acrylic acid, ethyl ,-cyano- p -methoxycinnamate, diethyl malonate and acetyl chloride affording the corresponding 2-(substituted) hydrazino-4-hydroxy-5H -[1]-benzopyrano-[4,3-d]-pyrimidin-5-one (12, 13, 14, 15 and 16).
