Regioselective Chlorination and Suzuki–Miyaura Cross-Coupling of 4-Alkoxycoumarins, 4-Alkoxy-2-pyrones, and Related Heterocycles
Prendergast, Aisling M.,McGlacken, Gerard P.
, p. 4827 - 4835 (2017/09/07)
Chlorination of the coumarin framework was achieved by using trichloroisocyanuric acid, which has several advantages over N-chlorosuccinimide, particularly with respect to cost-effectiveness and toxicity. The Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling of the chlorinat
Coumestan inhibits radical-induced oxidation of DNA: Is hydroxyl a necessary functional group?
Xi, Gao-Lei,Liu, Zai-Qun
, p. 5636 - 5642 (2014/07/07)
Coumestan is a natural tetracycle with a C - C bond shared by a coumarin moiety and a benzofuran moiety. In addition to the function of the hydroxyl group on the antioxidant activity of coumestan, it is worth exploring the influence of the oxygen-abundant

Coumestan is a natural tetracycle with a C=C bond shared by a coumarin moiety and a benzofuran moiety. In addition to the function of the hydroxyl group on the antioxidant activity of coumestan, it is worth exploring the influence of the oxygen-abundant s
Microwave-assisted efficient synthesis of 2-hydroxydeoxybenzoins from the alkali degradation of readily prepared 3-aryl-4-.hydroxycoumarins in water

This paper describes an operationally simple, green and efficient approach for the synthesis of 2-hydroxydeoxybenzoins bearing diverse substituents from the microwave-assisted alkali degradation of 3-aryl- 4-hydroxycoumarins in water. The latter compounds
Hydroxycoumarins as selective MAO-B inhibitors
Serra, Silvia,Ferino, Giulio,Matos, Maria Jo?o,Vázquez-Rodríguez, Saleta,Delogu, Giovanna,Vi?a, Dolores,Cadoni, Enzo,Santana, Lourdes,Uriarte, Eugenio
experimental part, p. 258 - 261 (2012/03/11)
A series of 3-aryl-4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives was synthesized with the aim to find out the structural features for the MAO inhibitory activity and selectivity. Methoxy and/or chloro substituents were introduced in the 3-phenyl ring, whereas the positio
Antitrypanosomal and antioxidant properties of 4-hydroxycoumarins derivatives
Perez-Cruz, Fernanda,Serra, Silvia,Delogu, Giovanna,Lapier, Michel,Maya, Juan Diego,Olea-Azar, Claudio,Santana, Lourdes,Uriarte, Eugenio
experimental part, p. 5569 - 5573 (2012/09/25)
In the present communication we prepared a series of six 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives, isosters of quercetin, recognized as an antioxidant natural compound, with the aim of evaluating the antitrypanosomal activity against Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite

Coumarins are a large family of natural and synthetic compounds exerting different pharmacological effects, including cytotoxic, anti-inflammatory or antimicrobial. In the present communication we report the synthesis of a series of 12 diversely substituted 4-oxycoumarin derivatives including methoxy substituted 4-hydroxycoumarins, methyl, methoxy or unsubstituted 3-aryl-4-hydroxycoumarins and 4-benzyloxycoumarins and their anti-proliferative effects on breast adenocarcinoma cells (MCF-7), human promyelocytic leukemia cells (HL-60), human histiocytic lymphoma cells (U937) and mouse neuroblastoma cells (Neuro2a). The most potent bioactive molecule was the 4-hydroxy-5,7- dimethoxycoumarin (compound 1) which showed similar potency (IC50 0.2-2 μM) in all cancer cell lines tested. This non-natural product reveals a simple bioactive scaffold which may be exploited in further studies.
Facile metal-free synthesis of 3-aryl-4-substituted coumarins from o-hydroxy carbonyl compounds
Taksande, Kiran,Borse,Lokhande, Pradeep
experimental part, p. 2284 - 2290 (2010/09/17)
The intramolecular cyclization of the esters of salicylaldehyde, O-hydroxyacetophenones, methyl salicylate, and 2'-hydroxy chalcones by potassium hydroxide in pyridine leads to a short and convenient synthesis of 3,4-disubstituted coumarins. Twenty 3-phenyl coumarins were synthesized in 80-90% yields. No other by-product, such as 2-benzylchromone or-diketones, was observed the reactions. The mild reaction condition involves the removal of more acidic benzylic proton, which leads to a relatively cheap, nontoxic, metal-free method for the synthesis of 3-aryl-4-substituted coumarins.

A different route to 3-aryl-4-hydroxycoumarins
Rodríguez, Sergio A.,Baumgartner, Maria T.
experimental part, p. 5322 - 5324 (2010/11/05)
We herein report the simple and direct arylation of 4-hydroxycoumarins by photoinduced reaction with aryl halides (iodobenzene, iodonaphthalene, 4-iodoanisole, 2-iodoanisole). Good yields of 3,4-disubstituted coumarins were obtained in these reactions (>60%). Extension of the procedure to the reaction with o-dihalobenzenes leads to the synthesis of ring closure products which bear a tetracyclic aromatic-condensed ring system, although in lower overall yields (≈45%).
Synthesis of coumarins, 4-hydroxycoumarins, and 4-hydroxyquinolinones by tellurium-triggered cyclizations
Dittmer, Donald C.,Li, Qun,Avilov, Dimitry V.
, p. 4682 - 4686 (2007/10/03)
Coumarins, 4-hydroxycoumarins, and 4-hydroxyquinolin-2(1H)-ones can be conveniently prepared by treatment of α-halocarboxylic acid esters of salicylaldehyde, o-hydroxyacetophenone, methyl salicylate, and methyl N-methyl- or N-phenylanthranilates with sodium or lithium telluride. Phenylketene formation competes with cyclization of the α-chlorophenylacetate ester of methyl salicylate as demonstrated by a trapping experiment with benzylamine. Elemental tellurium may be recovered and reused.
