The synthesis of several coumarin Mannich bases is described. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectral and elemental analysis. Their lipophilicity was determined experimentally by RPTLC method. All compounds were evaluated for their antiinflammatory and antioxidant activity and for their ability to inhibit in vitro lipoxygenase. The derivatives were found to present antioxidant

Indole-3-carbinol is a natural product which has been shown to reduce the incidence of spontaneous and carcinogen-induced mammary tumours in animals, Eighteen unsymmetrical methylene derivatives of indoles were prepared by reaction of Mannich bases of 7-hydroxycoumarins with substituted indoles in acetic or propionic anhydride. The synthesised molecules were tested in vitro against the MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines by MTT and cell count assays. Results from 16 tested compounds showed that 60% of them exerted some effects against the MDA-MB-231 compared to about 30% towards the MCF7. Among all, the 3-(7'-acetoxy-4-methylcoumarin-8'-yl)methyl-2-methylindole resulted the most effective in both cell lines, compared to indole-3-carbinol, In conclusion, these preliminary results report that some of these compounds might be promising potential antiproliferative agents.

Some Mannich bases of 7-hydroxycoumarin (2) and their simple derivatives (3 and 4) were prepared and tested against viruses containing single-stranded, positive-sense RNA genomes (ssRNA(+)). This study was directed toward Flaviviridae and, in particular, HCV surrogate viruses (BVDV, YFV). The 7-hydroxy derivatives 2 were generally devoid of activity, but when position 7 was propylated, the resulting 7-propyloxy derivatives 3 were in some cases endowed with an interesting activity against BVDV. The formation of 7-benzoyl derivatives 4 gave compounds generally lacking in activity against Flaviviridae, whereas the appearance of activity against RSV has been observed. Also some unsymmetrical methylene derivatives 5-7 (namely coumarins bridged to chromones or indoles) were found moderately active in antiviral tests. Derivatives 3 were submitted to a molecular modeling study using DNA polymerase of HCV as a target. The good correlation between calculated molecular modeling IC50 and experimental EC50 indicates that DNA polymerase is potentially involved in the inhibition of surrogate HCV viruses.

Inhibition of neutrophil O2− production by unsymmetrical methylene derivatives of benzopyrans: their use as potential antiinflammatory agents
Some unsymmetrical derivatives of benzopyrans 9 were synthesized and tested to verify their PKC inhibitory activity. For this purpose, the Mannich bases of 7-hydroxycoumarins 6 were treated with 2-(dialkylamino)benzopyran-4-ones or 3-(dialkylamino)naphtho[2,1-b]pyran-1-ones 8 in the presence of acetic or propionic anhydride, yielding compounds 9.
