ABSTRACT
A green and efficient protocol has been developed and a series of coumarin based pyrano[3,2-c]chromene derivatives (2) have been synthesized using multi-component reaction (MCR) approach. Unexpected 3-coumarinyl-3-pyrazolylpropanoic acids (3) and C4-C4 chromenes (5) have been isolated instead of expected product 4 by the reaction of compound (2) in formic acid at 90 °C for about 4-5 h and at 130 °C for about 8-10 h respectively. Further, C4-C4chromenes (5) formation was confirmed by intramolecular cyclization of compounds (3). These compounds were screened for their biological activities and most of them exhibited promising antibacterial activity. The anti-inflammatory assay was evaluated against HRBC membrane stabilization method and the compounds exhibit excellent anti-inflammatory activity. Molecular docking study has been performed for all the synthesized compounds with Klebsiella pneumoni aeacetolactate synthase and results obtained are quite promising.

A variety of new coumarin derivatives containing C-4 bridged 2,6-dicyanoanilines (4a-4d) were synthesized via multicomponent one pot approach. These novel sensors were characterized by spectral analysis and a series of pH sensing fluorescence studies were performed, the results indicating that the sensors are highly selective and more effective at various pH. The fluorescence colour changes at different pH could be directly detected by naked eyes.
ABSTRACT
Electronic absorption and emission spectra of 3-acetyl coumarin, 3-(bromoacetyl) coumarin and 3-(di bromoacetyl) coumarin have been recorded at room temperature in thirteen solvents with different polarities. Both ground and excited state dipole moments have been calculated for both locally excited and charge transfer transitions by using the solvatochromic method. Excited state dipole moments of all the three compounds are higher than their ground state values. DFT calculations have been profound to estimate their ground and excited state dipole moments. The estimated change in dipole moment by the application of microscopic solvent polarity parameter and bulk solvent polarity methods are in close agreement. Concentration dependent dual fluorescence has been observed in the emission spectra of all the three compounds. Graphical Abstract Dual fluorescence of 3-acetyl coumarin (I) in different solvents.
ABSTRACT
A series of beta-carbolines with other heterocycles linked by phenyl ring has been designed and synthesized. The key intermediates 3 and 5 were synthesized by condensing tryptamine and teraldehyde via Pictet- Spengler method. All the newly synthesized compounds were tested for their anticancer activity against sixty human cell lines at NCI. The five dose results of compounds 3 and 7a showed enhancement of anticancer activity (GI50 values range from 1.00 to 7.10 µM) against all the cell lines in comparison with some of earlier molecules. In addition to this protein binding and CT-DNA intercalation studies showed molecules are highly potential. The molecular docking studies, which support the multiple mode of interaction with DNA, moreover the synthesized compounds 3 and 7a are more potential and possess drug -like nature.

Bacterial infections are increasingly difficult to combat as bacteria evolve resistance to antibiotic drugs and have severely compromised the arsenal of antibiotic drugs. On the other hand matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play a fundamental role in inflammation and extracellular matrix degradation in physiological and pathological conditions. In search of potent antibiotic, taking coumarin and dihydropyrimidinone as lead compound, a green, eco-friendly and efficient protocol has been developed and synthesized the dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one/thione derivatives of coumarin 3/4 from substituted 4-formylcoumarins 2 and ethylacetoacetate using urea/thiourea in the presence of catalytic amount of ceric ammonium nitrate is reported. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial activity against four bacterial strains by broth dilution method. The tested compounds have exhibited promising in vitro potency with low MIC values against the drug susceptive S. aureus strain with low MIC values ranging from 0.2 to 6.25µg/mL. The in vivo anti-inflammatory potency of 3a-e and 4a-e by gelatin zymography is comparable to that of tetracycline. Molecular docking study performed for all the synthesized compounds with S. aureus DNA gyrase and results obtained were quite promising.

The title compound, C21H14N2O2, was prepared by Pictet-Spengler cyclization of tryptamine and 4-formyl coumarin. In the mol-ecule, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the coumarin and ß-carboline ring systems is 63.8â (2)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via N-Hâ¯N hydrogen bonds, forming chains along the b-axis direction. Within the chains, there are a number of offset π-π inter-actions present [shortest inter-centroid distance = 3.457â (2)â Å].
ABSTRACT
A green, eco-friendly and efficient protocol has been developed and synthesized a series of coumarin based pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole derivatives (3) by multi-component reaction (MCR). Unexpected 3-coumarinyl-3-pyrazolylpropanoic acids (4) have been isolated by the reaction of compound (3) in acidic conditions. Further, intramolecular cyclization of compounds (4) leads to C4C4 chromons (9) and these compounds were screened for their biological activities using array of techniques. Most of the compounds exhibited promising antibacterial activity, in particular Gram-positive bacteria. The anti-inflammatory assay was evaluated against protein denaturation as well as HRBC membrane stabilization methods and compounds exhibit excellent anti-inflammatory activity in both methods. Molecular docking study has been performed for all the synthesized compounds with S. aureus dihydropteroate synthetase (DHPS) and results obtained are quite promising.
