A transition-metal-free fast track to flavones and 3-arylcoumarins

A highly regioselective and transition-metal free one-pot arylation of chromenones with arylboronic acids has been achieved employing K2S2O8. The procedure consists of a sequence of some reactions including an arylation/decarboxylation cascade and proceeds well in aqueous media to afford biologically interesting flavones and 3-arylcoumarins. This method exhibited excellent selectivity and functional group tolerance under mild conditions. The reaction also showed perfect efficacy for the preparation of styryl coumarins.

Facile one-pot synthetic access to libraries of diversely substituted 3-aryl (Alkyl)-coumarins using ionic liquid (IL) or conventional base/solvent, and an IL-mediated approach to novel coumarin-bearing diaryl-ethynes

The in-situ formed carbonylimidazole derivatives of Ar(alkyl)-CH2COOH react at r.t. with substituted salicylaldehydes in [BMIM][PF6] or [BMIM][BF4] as solvent, and [PAIM][NTf2] as basic-IL, to produce libraries of 3-aryl(alkyl)coumarins. Whereas these reactions can also be performed with similar efficiency in THF by employing DBU, the IL approach offers easier work-up and recycling of the IL solvent. An IL-mediated approach to the synthesis of novel coumarin-bearing diaryl-ethynes by the Sonogshira reaction is also reported, and the potential for recycling/reuse of the IL solvent is shown.

Ph3P/I2-Mediated Synthesis of 3-Aryl-Substituted and 3,4-Disubstituted Coumarins

Ph3P/I2-Et3N-mediated one-pot two-step esterification-cyclization toward 3-aryl coumarins and 3-aryl-4-methylcoumarins is reported. The reaction of a variety of aryl acetic acids containing steric or reactive group with 2-

Ultrasound-Assisted Solvent-Free Parallel Synthesis of 3-Arylcoumarins Using N-Acylbenzotriazoles

An ultrasound-assisted one-pot acylation/cyclization reaction between N-acylbenzotriazoles and 2-hydroxybenzaldehydes has been developed for the synthesis of substituted 3-arylcoumarins. Using ultrasound not only allows rapid and clean conversion but also simplifies experimental setup and parallel workup leading to rapid generation of 3-arylcoumarin libraries under mild, solvent-free, and chromatography-free conditions.

Regioselective α-arylation of coumarins and 2-pyridones with phenylhydrazines under transition-metal-free conditions

A facile regioselective metal-free direct α-arylation of coumarins and 2-pyridones is achieved by the reaction of coumarins and 2-pyridones with phenylhydrazine in good yields. The reaction proceeds at room temperature under mild conditions using inexpensive reagents and without the need for step intensive activating groups. The methodology is operationally simple, practically viable and also allows the coupling of similar nitrogen heterocycle aza-coumarins without prerequisite N-protection.

MAO Inhibitory Activity of 2-Arylbenzofurans versus 3-Arylcoumarins: Synthesis, invitro Study, and Docking Calculations

Monoamine oxidase (MAO) is an important drug target for the treatment of neurological disorders. Several 3-arylcoumarin derivatives were previously described as interesting selective MAO-B inhibitors. Preserving the trans-stilbene structure, a series of 2-arylbenzofuran and corresponding 3-arylcoumarin derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of both MAO isoforms, MAO-A and MAO-B. In general, both types of derivatives were found to be selective MAO-B inhibitors, with IC50 values in the nano- to micromolar range. 5-Nitro-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)benzofuran (8) is the most active compound of the benzofuran series, presenting MAO-B selectivity and reversible inhibition (IC50=140nM). 3-(4′-Methoxyphenyl)-6-nitrocoumarin (15), with the same substitution pattern as that of compound 8, was found to be the most active MAO-B inhibitor of the coumarin series (IC50=3nM). However, 3-phenylcoumarin 14 showed activity in the same range (IC50=6nM), is reversible, and also severalfold more selective than compound 15. Docking experiments for the most active compounds into the MAO-B and MAO-A binding pockets highlighted different interactions between the derivative classes (2-arylbenzofurans and 3-arylcoumarins), and provided new information about the enzyme-inhibitor interaction and the potential therapeutic application of these scaffolds.

Efficient and general synthesis of 3-aryl coumarins using cyanuric chloride 1

An efficient and general protocol for a rapid synthesis of different substituted 3-aryl coumarins is reported. A series of different substituted phenyl acetic acids have been successfully reacted with different substituted 2-hydroxy benzaldehydes in the presence of cyanuric chloride (2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine) and N-methyl morpholine to afford 3-aryl coumarins in good to excellent yields.

Synthesis and vasorelaxant and platelet antiaggregatory activities of a new series of 6-Halo-3-phenylcoumarins

A series of 6-halo-3-hydroxyphenylcoumarins (resveratrol-coumarins hybrid derivatives) was synthesized in good yields by a Perkin reaction followed by hydrolysis. The new compounds were evaluated for their vasorelaxant activity in intact rat aorta rings pre-contracted with phenylephrine (PE), as well as for their inhibitory effects on platelet aggregation induced by thrombin in washed human platelets. These compounds concentration-dependently relaxed vascular smooth muscle and some of them showed a platelet antiaggregatory activity that was up to thirty times higher than that shown by trans-resveratrol and some other previously synthesized derivatives.

Synthesis of Coumarins by Nucleophilic Denitrocyclization Reaction

2-propanedioic acids(2a-c) were denitrocyclized to coumarins (3a-c) by heating in quinoline in the presence of copper powder. 2-(4-Methoxiphenyl)-3-(2-nitrophenyl)-(Z)-2-propenoic acids (6a,b,d,e) were also similarly denitrocycli
