In the present work, we are reporting the isolation. characterisation and bioactvity of inophyllums, xanthones and other compounds found in the fruits of Callophyllum inophyllum. In-vitro assays demonstrated that the crude extract at concentration of 50 μg/ml inhibited 77% and 88% cyclooxygenase and lipooxygenase activities, respectively, indicating its potential as anti-inflamatory agent. Phytochemical studies was also conducted on the fruits. Inophyllum A, inophyllum C, inophyllum E, calophylloide, calophynic acid, 11,12-anhydroinophyllum A, 1,7-dihydroxy-6-methoxyxanthone, potocatechuic acid, gallic acid, n-nonacosane, β-sitosterol and sitosterol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside were isolated and idetified. On the HPLC chromatogram, at least 18 compounds can be detected.     

Reversible Photochemical Modifications in Dicarbene‐Derived Metallacycles with Coumarin Pendants

Molecular rectangles were obtained from two bis(NHC) ligands, each featuring two terminal coumarin groups and two Ag⁺, Au⁺, or Cu⁺ ions. Upon UV irradiation (λ=365 nm), the dinuclear complexes undergo photochemical modification through a [2+2] cycloaddition reaction of two adjacent coumarin moieties to give a macrocyclic tetra(NHC) ligand. The photodimerization of the coumarin pendants proceeds stereoselectively to give the syn‐head‐head isomers in all cases. Subsequent irradiation at λ=254 nm initiates a photocleavage reaction with reconstitution of the initial dinuclear complexes with coumarin pendants.

Novel Coumarin-based Fluorescent Probe for Selective Detection of Bisulfite Anion in Water

Coumarins and its analogues have been widely used as chromophore in design of fluorescent probe, while less coumarin‐based fluorescent probe was reported for detection of anion in water. In this article, coumarin‐based fluorescent probes with salicylaldehyde functionality as recognition unit have been developed for selective detection of bisulfite anions in water. Four novel fluorescent probes were synthesized from 4‐haloresorcinol in three steps. The chemoprobe exhibited selective response to bisulfite over other anions. Moreover, the detection mechanism was studied. Upon bisulfite added, the fluorescent intensity of the probes was enhanced highly due to the nucleophilic addition reaction of formyl group with bisulfite anion.

Fragmentation pathways of protonated coumarin by ESI‐QE‐Orbitrap‐MS/MS coupled with DFT calculations

Coumarin is one of the basic structures of naturally oxygen heterocyclic compound, which was investigated in this paper for its gas‐phase fragmentation behaviors using electrospray quadrupole extractive orbitrap mass spectrometry in the positive mode. The possible fragmentation pathways were proposed based on electrospray ionization (ESI)‐ mass spectrometry (MS)/MS data and theory calculation. The elimination of two CO and CO₂ was observed for protonated coumarin, which was followed by the formation of a stabilized seven‐, six‐, and five‐membered ring carbocation by loss of C2H2. The possible protonation sites occurred at Oxygen 11 atom of coumarin were the main fragmentation pathways. The relative abundance of characteristic fragment ions and the energy‐resolved breakdown curves were used to confirm the cleavage mechanism of protonated coumarin. The methodology and results of present work would contribute to the chemical structure identification of other coumarins.     

Creation of 3,4-bis-triazolocoumarin-sugar conjugates via flourogenic dual click chemistry and their quenching specificity with silver(I) in aqueous media

Fluorogenic click chemistry has recently emerged as an ingenious and powerful tool toward numerous biochemical purposes. We describe herein the use of dual click chemistry toward the fluorescence restoration of a fluorogenic coumarin on epimeric dipropargyl sugar scaffolds and their practical utility in selective metal ion detection. The dual click reactions were smoothly proceeded under microwave irradiation between silylated 3,4-di-O-propynyl gluco- or galactoside and 3-azidocoumarin, forming fluorescently reactivated bis-triazolocoumarins on sugar templates. Subsequent desilylation resulted in the OH-glycosides with desired water solubility. The following photochemical study disclosed that their fluorescence could be uniquely quenched by silver(I) in aqueous media with very minor responses to the addition of other metal ions. This research would presumably prompt the efficient creation of water soluble and potentially low toxic chemosensors via the fluorogenic dual click chemistry in using the universally existent sugars as the central scaffold.
