Efficient total synthesis of 5-methoxypsoralen

A rapid and efficient synthesis of 5-methoxypsoralen, furocoumarin commonly used in dermatology for the treatment by PUVA therapy of skin diseases, is described using cheap and easily available starting materials. An alternative method to synthesize 7-(2-oxoethoxy)coumarin, the key step to generate the furan ring, is suggested. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.

Palladium(II)-catalyzed efficient synthesis of wedelolactone and evaluation as potential tyrosinase inhibitor

Tyrosinase is an enzyme widely distributed in nature, which has multiple functions, especially in the melanin biosynthesis pathway. Despite the few clinically available tyrosinase inhibitors for whitening, a great demand remains for novel compounds with low side effects in terms of potential carcinogenicity and improved clinical efficacy. A natural product, wedelolactone (WEL), with a polyhydroxyl moiety, attracted our attention as a potential tyrosinase inhibitor. Before we studied the biological activity of the natural product, a synthetic methodological research was firstly carried to obtain enough raw material. WEL could be obtained efficiently through palladium-catalyzed boronation/coupling reactions and 2,3-dicyano-5,6-dichlorobenzoquinone (DDQ)-involved oxidative deprotection/annulation reactions. Immediately after, the natural product was proven to be an efficient tyrosinase inhibitor. In conclusion, we developed a mild and efficient approach for the preparation of WEL, and the natural product was disclosed to have anti-tyrosinase activity, which could be widely used in multiple fields.

Natural and synthetic 2,2-dimethylpyranocoumarins with antibacterial activity

A new efficient synthetic approach to the natural coumarins 5-hydroxyseselin (5), 5-methoxyseselin (3), and (±) cis-grandmarin (9) is described as well as the synthesis of some new derivatives in the 5-methoxyseselin series (10-15). The natural coumarins 7-hydroxyalloxanthyletin (6), alloxanthoxyletin (8), and dipetalolactone (7) have also been obtained as secondary products. The type of fusion of the pyrano ring in all cases has been established by 2D NMR spectroscopy. The compounds have been studied for their in vitro antibacterial activity, which has been compared with that of some previously synthesized seselin derivatives. The most active compounds were 3, 7, 8, 11, and 14. Some structure-activity relationships are discussed.
