In the present communication, we report the synthesis, pharmacological evaluation, theoretical evaluation of absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion properties and structure–activity relationship study of a selected series of 3-arylcoumarins (compounds 1–9). Adenosine receptors (ARs) binding activity and selectivity of the synthesized compounds 1–9 were evaluated in this study. Different substituents were introduced in both benzene rings of the evaluated scaffold, at positions 6 and 3′ or 4′ of the moiety. The lack of data on the 3-arylcoumarin scaffold encouraged us to explore the ARs' binding activity of a selected series of derivatives.
A new series of coumarins (compounds 1–9) were synthesized and evaluated by radioligand binding studies towards ARs.
Analysing the experimental data, it can be observed that neither the simple 3-arylcoumarin nor the 4′-nitro derivatives presented detectable binding affinity for the evaluated receptors, although most of the other substituted derivatives have good binding affinity profiles, especially against the hA1/hA3 or only hA3 AR.
The most remarkable derivative is compound 2, presenting the best affinity for hA3 AR (Ki = 2680 nM) and significant selectivity for this subtype.
