Synthesis, spectral analysis, and antibacterial activity of new coumarin derivatives are described in this paper. Twelve new coumarin derivatives were synthesized in moderate to good yields by the react with 4‐methyl‐6‐(prop‐2‐ynyloxy)‐2H‐chromen‐2‐one ( 3a – c ) and ethyl azide ( 4a – l ) and done by the click reaction to obtained 6‐[(l‐ethyl‐lH‐l,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl)methoxy]‐4‐methyl‐2H‐chromen‐2‐ones ( 5a – l ). The structures of all the newly synthesized molecules were assigned by elemental analysis and spectral data. The synthesized compounds were screened for their antibacterial activities strains using Cup plate method.     

A convenient one‐pot synthesis of new 3‐(4‐aryl‐5‐oxo‐5,6,7,8‐tetrahydro‐4H‐chromen‐2‐yl)‐2H‐chromen‐2‐ones

Anhydrous zinc bromide catalysed reactions of arylidine‐3‐acetyl coumarins ( 1a‐c ) and 5,6‐benzoanalogs of arylidine 3‐acetyl coumarins ( 4a,4b ) with 1,3‐cyclohexanedione gives ‐(4‐aryl‐5‐oxo‐5,6,7,8‐tetrahydro‐4H‐chromen‐2yl)‐2H‐chromen‐2‐ones ( 3a, 3c ) and 5,6‐benzoanalogs of 3‐(4‐aryl‐5‐oxo‐5,6,7,8‐tetrahydro‐4H‐chromen‐2yl)‐2H‐chromen‐2‐one ( 5a,5b ). Under similar conditions arylidine‐3‐acetylcoumarins ( 1a, 1b,1d, 1e, 1f ) and 5,6‐benzoanalog of arylidine 3‐acetyl coumarin ( 4b ) react with 5,5‐dimethyl‐1,3‐cyclohexanedione (dimedone) yielding 3‐(4‐aryl‐7,7‐dimethyl‐5‐oxo‐5,6,7,8‐tetrahydro‐4H‐chromen‐2‐yl)‐2H‐chromen‐2‐ones ( 3d‐3h ) and the 5,6‐benzoanalog of 3.(4‐aryl‐7,7‐dimethyl‐5‐oxo‐5,6,7,8‐tetrahydro‐4H‐chromen‐2‐yl)‐2H‐chromen‐2‐one ( 5c ).     

Synthesis and Characterization of New Thebaine Derivatives as Potential Opioid Agonists and Antagonists: 2‐[N‐(1H‐Tetrazol‐5‐yl)‐6,14‐endo‐etheno‐6,7,8,14‐tetrahydrothebaine‐7α‐yl]‐5‐phenyl‐1,3,4‐oxadiazoles

In this study, we report the synthesis a series of novel 2‐[N‐(1H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl)‐6,14‐endo‐etheno‐6,7,8,14‐tetrahydrothebaine‐7α‐yl]‐5‐phenyl‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole derivatives ( 7a – e ) which have potential opioid antagonist and agonist. The substitution reaction of 6,14‐endo‐ethenotetrahydrothebaine‐7α‐carbohydrazide with corresponding benzoyl chlorides gave diacylhydrazine compounds 4a – e in good yields. The treatment of compounds 4a – e with POCl₃ caused the conversion of side‐chain of compounds 5a – e into 1,3,4‐oxadiazole ring at C(7) position; thus, compounds 5a – e were obtained. Subsequently, cyanamides ( 6a – e ) were prepared from compounds 5a – e and then compounds 7a – e were synthesized by the azidation of 6a – e with NaN₃. The structures of the compounds were established on the basis of their IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C APT, 2D‐NMR (COSY, NOESY, HMQC, HMBC) and high‐resolution mass spectral data.     

One‐Pot Syntheses of 2‐(2‐Sulfanyl‐4H‐3,1‐benzothiazin‐4‐yl)acetic Acid Derivatives via Reactions of 3‐(2‐Isothiocyanatophenyl)prop‐2‐enoic Acid Derivatives with Thiols or Sodium Sulfide

Two efficient methods for the preparation of 2‐(2‐sulfanyl‐4H‐3,1‐benzothiazin‐4‐yl)acetic acid derivatives 3 under mild conditions have been developed. The first method is based on the reaction of 3‐(2‐isothiocyanatophenyl)prop‐2‐enoates 1a – 1c with thiols in the presence of Et₃N in THF at room temperature, leading to the corresponding dithiocarbamate intermediates 2 , which underwent spontaneous cyclization at the same temperature by an attack of the S‐atom at the prop‐2‐enoyl moiety in a 1,4‐addition manner (Michael addition) to give 2‐(2‐sulfanyl‐4H‐3,1‐benzothiazin‐4‐yl)acetates in one pot. The second method involves treatment of 3‐(2‐isothiocyanatophenyl)prop‐2‐enoic acid derivatives 1b – 1d with Na₂S leading to the formation of 2‐(2‐sodiosulfanyl‐4H‐3,1‐benzothiazin‐4‐yl)acetic acid intermediates 5 by a similar addition/cyclization sequence, which are then allowed to react with alkyl or aryl halides to afford derivatives 3 . 2‐(2‐Thioxo‐4H‐3,1‐benzothiazin‐4‐yl)acetic acid derivatives 6 can be obtained by omitting the addition of halides.

A number of coumarino[6,7‐d]oxazoles (nitrogen analogs of psoralens) have been synthesized from (7‐hydroxy‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐4‐yl) acetic acid ethyl ester 1 . The synthetic route began with the nitration of 1 with nitric acid in acetic acid to give (6‐nitro‐7‐hydroxy‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐4‐yl) acetic acid ethyl ester 2 ; (3,6‐dinitro‐7‐hydroxy‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐4‐yl) acetic acid ethyl ester 3 and (3,6,8‐trinitro‐7‐hydroxy‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐4‐yl) acetic acid ethyl ester 4 . The reduction of 2 was accomplished with tin(II) chloride, tin, and concentrated hydrochloric acid in ethanol giving (6‐amino‐7‐hydroxy‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐4‐yl) acetic acid ethyl ester 5 . After the condensation of aminocoumarin 5 with aromatic aldehyde in glacial acetic acid medium, followed the dehydrocyclization to coumarino[6,7‐d]oxazoles 7a‐k . The intermediate Schiff's bases 6a‐k have been obtained from 5 with aromatic aldehyde in ethanol. Antibacterial and antifungal activities of the compounds have been evaluated.

Design and Synthesis of Antimicrobial Active (E)‐(3‐(Substituted‐styryl)‐7H‐furo[2,3‐f]chromen‐2‐yl)(phenyl)methanone Derivatives and Their In Silico Molecular Docking Studies

Nine new (E)‐(3‐(substituted‐styryl)‐7H‐furo[2,3‐f]chromen‐2‐yl)(phenyl)methanone derivatives, 7 ( a – i ), with an efficient microwave‐assisted synthetic method was achieved by reacting with (E)‐3‐(aryl)‐1‐(5‐hydroxy‐2H‐chromen‐6‐yl)prop‐2‐en‐1‐ones and 2‐bromo‐1‐(4‐bromophenyl)ethanone. The microwave irradiation method was found to be best with high yields and with shorter reaction times compared with the conventional method. All the new products structural assignments were confirmed by spectral data like FTIR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ESI MS, and analytical data. Moreover, these newly synthesized compounds were tested in vitro for their antimicrobial activity against various bacterial and fungal strains. Some of these new chromen derivatives like 7b , 7c , and 7d exhibits good antibacterial and antifungal activities. Furthermore, these biological evolution results were a good correlation with molecular docking studies performed based on their computational DFT minimized structures exhibited high binding energies.     

Polymorphism of 3‐(5‐phenyl‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐yl)‐ and 3‐[5‐(pyridin‐4‐yl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐yl]‐2H‐chromen‐2‐ones

This study of 3‐(5‐phenyl‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐yl)‐2H‐chromen‐2‐one, C₁₇H₁₀N₂O₃, 1 , and 3‐[5‐(pyridin‐4‐yl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐yl]‐2H‐chromen‐2‐one, C₁₆H₉N₃O₃, 2 , was performed on the assumption of the potential anticancer activity of the compounds. Three polymorphic structures for 1 and two polymorphic structures for 2 have been studied thoroughly. The strongest intermolecular interaction is stacking of the `head‐to‐head' type in all the studied crystals. The polymorphic structures of 1 differ with respect to the intermolecular interactions between stacked columns. Two of the polymorphs have a columnar or double columnar type of crystal organization, while the third polymorphic structure can be classified as columnar‐layered. The difference between the two structures of 2 is less pronounced. Both crystals can be considered as having very similar arrangements of neighbouring columns. The formation of polymorphic modifications is caused by a subtle balance of very weak intermolecular interactions and packing differences can be identified only using an analysis based on a study of the pairwise interaction energies.

3‐Acyl‐4‐hydroxy‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen derivatives 1a‐d were condensed with (7‐hydroxy‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐4‐yl)‐acetic acid hydrazide 2 , (4‐methyl‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐7‐yloxy)‐acetic acid hydrazide 3 , and (7‐hydrazinocarbonylmethoxy‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐4‐yl)‐acetic acid hydrazide 4 , to give corresponding 3‐alkyl‐1‐[2‐(7‐hydroxy‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromeno‐4‐yl)‐acetyl]‐1H‐chromeno[4,3‐c]pyrazole‐4‐one 5a‐d , 3‐alkyl‐1‐[2‐(4‐methyl‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromeno‐7‐yloxy)‐acetyl]‐1H‐chromeno[4,3‐c]pyrazole‐4‐one 6a‐d , and 1‐{4‐[(3‐alkyl‐1H‐chromeno[4,3‐c]pyrazole‐4‐one‐1‐yl)‐carbonylmethyl]‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐7‐yloxy‐acetyl}‐3‐alkyl‐1H‐chromeno[4,3‐c]pyrazole‐4‐one 7a‐d.

Phenothiazine on reaction with Cl(CH₂)₃Br at room temperature gave 10‐(3‐chloropropyl)‐10H‐phenothiazine ( 1 ), and the latter reacted with urea to yield 1‐[3‐(10H‐phenothiazin‐10‐yl)propyl]urea ( 2 ). Further reaction of 2 with several substituted aromatic aldehydes led to N‐(arylmethylidene)‐N′‐[3‐(phenothiazin‐10‐yl)propyl]ureas 3a – 3m , which, on treatment with ClCH₂COCl in the presence of Et₃N, furnished the desired racemic trans‐2‐oxoazetidin‐1‐carboxamide derivatives 4a – 4m .
