Synthesis and Anticancer Activity of Some New Derivatives of Coumarin and Quinolinyl Mercaptotriazoles

Abstract

Pechmann condensation of ethylacetoacetate with derivatives of phenol by heating in absence of solvent and with montmorillonite clays K-10 afforded coumarin derivatives (1a-e) in good yields which on reaction with thiosemicarbazide in anhydrous pyridine yielded coumarin-quinolinyl mercaptotriazole (2a-e). The latter compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial and anticancer activities. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, ¹HNMR and mass spectra.
