- 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydroisoquinoline/2H-chromen-2-one conjugates as nanomolar P-glycoprotein inhibitors: Molecular determinants for affinity and selectivity over multidrug resistance associated protein 1
-
A series of coniugates bearing a 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline motif linked to substituted 7-hydroxy-2H-chromen-2-ones was synthesized and assayed through calcein-AM test in Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells overexpressing P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and closely related multidrug resistance associated protein 1 (MRP1) to probe the interference with efflux mechanisms mediated by P-gp and MRP1, respectively. A number of substituents at C3 and C4 of coumarin nucleus along with differently sized and shaped spacers was enrolled to investigate the effects of focused structural modifications over affinity and selectivity. Linker length and flexibility played a key role in enhancing P-gp affinity as proved by the most potent P-gp modulator (3h, IC50 = 70 nM). A phenyl ring within the spacer (3k, 3l, 3o) and bulkier groups (Br in 3r, Ph in 3u) at coumarin C3 led to derivatives showing nanomolar activity (160 nM 50 350). Molecular docking calculations carried out on a human MDR1 homology model structure contributed to gain insights into the ligands’ binding modes. Some compounds (3d, 3h, 3l, 3r, 3t, 3u) reversed MDR thereby restoring doxorubicin cytotoxicity when co-administered with the drug into MDCK-MDR1 cells.

- Chlorophyll-catalyzed photochemical regioselective coumarin C-H arylation with diazonium salts
-
This communication describes the development of a mild method for the cross-coupling of the C3-position of coumarin with an array of diazonium salts mediated by chlorophyll as a biocatalyst via visible light catalysis. A natural pigment such as chlorophyll is used as a green photosensitizer and environmentally benign catalyst. This general and easy procedure provides a transition-metal-free alternative for the formation of 3-aryl coumarin derivatives at room temperature with good to excellent yields. This journal is

- Discovery and structure-activity relationship of coumarin derivatives as TNF-α inhibitors
-
The discovery and structure-activity relationship of a novel series of coumarin-based TNF-α inhibitors is described. Starting from the initial lead 1a, various derivatives were prepared surrounding the coumarin core structure to optimize the in vitro inhibitory activity of TNF-α production by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (hPBMC), stimulated by bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Selected compounds also demonstrated in vivo inhibition of TNF-α production in rats.

- Anti-AIDS agents. 42. Synthesis and anti-HIV activity of disubstituted (3′R,4′R)-3′,4′-di-O-(S)-camphanoyl-(+)-cis- khellactone analogues
-
A series of disubstituted 3′,4′-di-O-(S)-camphanoyl-(+)-cis-khellactone (DCK) analogues (1-10) were synthesized and evaluated for inhibition of HIV-1 replication in H9 lymphocytes. 5-Methoxy-4-methyl DCK (8) was the most promising compound with an EC50 value of 7.21 × 10-6 μM and a therapeutic index of >2.08 × 10,7 which were much better than those of lead compound DCK in the same assay. Another six disubstituted DCK analogues (1-5 and 7) were more potent than AZT but less active than DCK. Conformational analysis suggested that resonance of the coumarin system is an essential structural feature for potent anti-HIV activity. Steric compression of C(4) and C(5) substituents of the coumarin moiety can reduce the overall planarity and thus resonance of the coumarin nucleus, resulting in a decrease or lack of anti-HIV activity.
