Background: Despite the availability of a variety of antibacterial agents, re-emergence of pathogenic bacteria is still a serious medical concern. So, identification of new, safer, and selective antibacterial agents is the key interest in the medicinal chemistry research. Method: To explore the antimicrobial activity of coumarin-3-carboxamides for a range of bacterial and fungal strains, twenty eight derivatives were synthesized by the reaction of coumarin-3-carboxylic acid with a variety of aniline derivatives in the presence of 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI). All compounds were structurally characterized by different spectroscopic techniques EI-MS, HREI-MS, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and evaluated for antimicrobial activities (antibacterial and antifungal). Results: A number of compounds showed good to weak antibacterial activity against various strains of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Amongst them, compound 28 displayed noticeable inhibition against five strains of Gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis, Corynebacterium xerosis, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus faecalis, and MRSA) and four strains of Gram-negative bacteria (Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter aerogene, and Shigella dysenteria). However, none of the compounds showed antifungal activity against tested fungi. MIC values were determined for most of the active compounds 2, 15, and 28 against particular bacterial cultures. In silico studies were performed on the most active compound 28 in order to specify and verify the target for antibacterial activity of synthetic coumarin-3-carboxamide derivatives. The cytotoxicity of these compounds on mammalian cells is unknown yet but we are planning to carry out research on the cytotoxic aspect of these compounds in future. Conclusion: The newly identified compounds may serve as lead molecules for the future research regarding the identification of new antibacterial agents.

A series of coumarin-3-carboxamides/hydrazides have been designed and synthesized, all the target compounds were evaluated in vitro for their antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea, Alternaria solani, Gibberella zeae, Rhizoctorzia solani, Cucumber anthrax and Alternaria leaf spot, some of the designed compounds 4a-4g exhibited potential activity in the primary assays, this highlighted by the compounds 4a, 4d, 4e and 4f, EC50 values of which against Rhizoctorzia solani were as low as 1.80 μg/mL, 2.50 μg/mL, 2.25 μg/mL and 2.10 μg/mL, respectively, exhibiting more effective control with that of the positive control than Boscalid. Furthermore, compounds 4a and 4e represented equivalent antifungal activity with Boscalid against Botrytis cinerea.

Adenosine receptor (AR) subtypes are involved in several physiological and pharmacological processes. Ligands that are able to selectively modulate one receptor subtype can delay or slow down the progression of diverse diseases. In this context, our research group focused its investigation into the discovery and development of novel, potent and selective AR ligands based on coumarin scaffold. Therefore, a series of 3-phenylcarboxamidocoumarins were synthesized and their affinity for the human AR subtypes was screened by radioligand binding assays for A1, A2A and A3 receptors and for A2B by adenylyl cyclase assay. Compound 26 was found to be the most remarkable, with a hA1/hA3 and hA2A/hA3 selectivity of 42, for the A3 AR (Ki?=?2.4?μm). Receptor-driven molecular modelling studies have provided valuable information on the binding/selectivity data of compound 26 and for the following optimization process. Moreover, compound 26 presents drug-like properties according to the general guidelines linked to the concept.

New methodology has been developed for the Lewis acid catalyzed synthesis of malonamides. First, the scandium(III)-catalyzed addition of diverse nucleophiles (e.g., indoles, N,N-dimethyl-m-anisidine, 2-ethylpyrrole, and 2-methylallylsilane) to coumarin-3-carboxylates has been developed to afford chromanone-3-carboxylates in high yields as a single diastereomer. Upon investigating a subsequent lanthanum(III)-catalyzed amidation reaction, a new multicomponent reaction was designed by bringing together coumarin-3-carboxylates with indoles and amines to afford indolylmalonamides, which were identified to exhibit fluorescent properties. The photophysical properties for selected compounds have been analyzed, including quantum yield, molar absorptivity, and Stokes shift. Synthetic studies of several reaction byproducts involved in the network of reaction equilibria for the three-component reaction provide mechanistic insight for the development of this methodology.

A large series of 3-carboxamido-7-substituted coumarins have been synthesized and tested in vitro for their human monoamine oxidase A and B (hMAO-A and hMAO-B) inhibitory activity. Taking into account all the relevant structural information on MAOs reported in the literature, we made some changes in the coumarin nucleus and examined with particular attention the effect on activity and selectivity of substituting at position 3 with N-aryl or N-alkyl carboxamide and at position 7 with a benzyloxy or a 4'-F-benzyloxy group. Some of the assayed compounds proved to be potent, selective inhibitors of hMAO-B with IC50 values in the micromolar range. To better understand the enzyme-inhibitor interaction and to explain the selectivity of the most active compounds toward hMAOs, molecular modeling studies were carried out on new, high resolution, hMAO-A and hMAO-B crystallographic structures. ?2009 American Chemical Society.
