Abstract:In this report, we designed and synthesized ten N-(R-phenyl)-3-carboxamide-coumarin derivatives (2a-2j), exploring the coumarin nucleus, and an R-phenyl group as a structural scaffold and a peptide bond as a linker between them. The structure-activity relationships were investigated with different R-substituents (H, Br, NO2, Cl) in ortho, meta, or para positions from the phenyl group. Coumarins were obtained in good yields (72-95%), and in vitro screening against Canavalia ensiformis urease showed potential in… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
