The present research work deals with the synthesis, characterization and to evaluate the synthesized compound for antidepressant activity of a series of coumarin derivatives. Basic coumarin is prepared by Perkin reaction, which further reacted with aryl thiourea by cyclization reaction leads to produce 3-(2-(phenylaminothiazol-4-yl)-2H-chromen-2-one. Totally twelve compounds, were synthesized b...

The ground state (μg) and excited state (μe) dipole moments of two coumarin derivatives namely diethyl 2acetamido-2-((3-oxo-3H-benzo[f]chromen-1-yl)methyl)malonate (2DAM) and ethyl2-((7-methyl-2-oxo-2H-chromen-4yl)methyl)-3-oxobutanoate(2EMCO) were estimated in various solvents. The dipole moments were estimated from Lippert, Bakhshiev and Kawaski-Chamma-Viallet equations by using the variation...

zogenes are differentiated cells capable of the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. Hairy roots also have a high rate of proliferation. They are therefore expected to become widely used culture systems for the production of useful secondary metabolites and for studies on the production of biologically active compounds and transformation of organic substrates. We reported the production of a ...

After administration of the coumarin anticoagulant racemic warfarin to normal humans, seven fluorescent compounds were chromatographically separated from extracts of their urine. Four of these were identified using mass spectrometry, thin-layer chromatography, and ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy. One metabolic pathway, reduction of the acetonyl side chain of warfarin, resulted in the format...

Coumarins are natural plant products that have been the subject of extensive phytochemical and pharmacological research studies in the past few decades. The core structure of coumarins is derived from the respective cinnamates via ortho-hydroxylation of the aromatic ring, trans/cis isomerization, and lactonization. Various substitution patterns of coumarins have been reported, whereas the biosy...

The synthesis and cation-binding properties of a series of Calixarene derivatives possessing alkyl chain groups, ester groups and crown ether rings have been investigated. The syntheses of Calix[4]arene crown ethers and Calix[6]arene derivatives possessing alkyl chain, ester group and crown ether ring have been described. In order to evaluate their monovalent cation binding abilities, solvent e...

In the fresh tissues of Prunus mahaleb L., three classes of phenolics were characterised: phenolic acid derivatives (main compound being o-coumaric acid glucoside), quercetin glycosides, and anthocyanins (cyanidin 3,5-diglucoside, cyanidin 3-sambubioside, cyanidin 3-xylosyl-rutinoside and cyanidin 3-rutinoside). Coumarin was also identified. The kernels showed a high content of coumarin (0.87 m...

A series of 2-amino pyridine-3-carbinitrile derivatives incorporated coumarin moiety has developed via multicomponent condensation of 3-acetyl-2H-chromen-2-one, arylaldehydes, malononitrile and ammonium acetate utilizing Brønsted acidic ionic liquid, (4-sulfobutyl)tris(4-sulfophenyl)phosphonium hydrogen sulfate as catalyst under solvent-free conditions. Good yields, short reaction times, straig...

The Pechmann condensation has been used as a simple and efficient method for the preparation of coumarin derivatives, which phenols and ethyl acetoacetate were reacted in the presence of AlCl3 supported on nano silica as an efficient catalyst at 110 oC under solvent free condition to form products with good to excellent yield (55 -90%), which are identified by spectroscopic method ( FT-IR, NMR)...
