The six novel 4-methylcoumarins bearing different functionalities such as amino, hydroxy, N-acetyl, acetoxy and nitro have been synthesized and confirmed on the basis of their spectral data (1H-, 13C-NMR, UV, IR and EI mass). They were examined for the first time for their effect on NADPH dependent liver microsomal lipid peroxidation in vitro, and the results were compared with other model 4-methylcoumarin derivatives to establish the structure-activity relationship. Our studies demonstrated that amino group is an effective substitute for the hydroxyl group for antioxidant property and produced a dramatic inhibition of lipid peroxidation. Ortho dihydroxy and ortho hydroxy-amino coumarins were found to possess highest antioxidant and radical scavenging activities.

Myeloid cell leukemia-1 (Mcl-1) is a validated and attractive target for cancer therapy. Over-expression of Mcl-1 in many cancers allows cancer cells to evade apoptosis and contributes to their resistance to current chemotherapeutics. In this study, more than thirty coumarin derivatives with different substituents were designed and synthesized, and their Mcl-1 inhibitory activities evaluated using a fluorescence polarization-based binding assay. The results showed that the catechol group was a key constituent for Mcl-1 inhibitory activity of the coumarins, and methylation of the catechol group led to decreased inhibitory activity. The introduction of a hydrophobic electron-withdrawing group at the C-4 position of 6,7-dihydroxycoumarin, enhanced Mcl-1 inhibitory capacity, and a hydrophilic group in this position was unbeneficial to the inhibitory potency. In addition, the introduction of a nitrogen-containing group to the C-5 or C-8 position, which allowed an intramolecular hydrogen bond, was also unfavorable for Mcl-1 inhibition. Among all coumarins tested, 4-trifluoromethyl-6,7-dihydroxycoumarin (Cpd 4) displayed the most potent inhibitory activity towards Mcl-1 (Ki = 0.21 ± 0.02 μM, IC50 = 1.21 ± 0.56 μM, respectively), for which the beneficial effect on taxol resistance was also validated in A549 cells. A strong interaction between Cpd 4 and Mcl-1 in docking simulations further supported the observed potent Mcl-1 inhibition ability of Cpd 4. 3D-QSAR analysis of all tested coumarin derivatives further provides new insights into the relationships linking the inhibitory effects on Mcl-1 and the steric-electrostatic properties of coumarins. These findings could be of great value for medicinal chemists for the design and development of more potent Mcl-1 inhibitors for biomedical applications.
