Abstract:
Coumarin is classified as one of the interesting therapeutic starting research points and studies to obtain remarkable compounds with high efficacy. So, during this research, new functionalized coumarin derivatives bearing 2-iminochromene moiety were synthesized. At first, cyanoacetohydrazone of 3-acetyl coumarin was prepared and used as starating material. The target 2-iminochromene derivatives were synthesized through the ring closure of cyanoacetohydrazone derivative with 4-hydroxysalicylaldehyde, 5-aryldiazosalicylaldehydes, 2-hydroxy-naphthaldehyde and 7-hydroxy-chromone-6-carboxaldehyde derivative. All of the newly synthesized coumarin derivatives were obtained in excellent yields, So, the new synthesized coumarin derivatives will participate to enrichment the chemical libraries.
