The synthesis is reported here of two novel series of inhibitors of human NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase-1 (NQO1), an enzyme overexpressed in several types of tumor cell. The first series comprises substituted symmetric dicoumarol analogues; the second series contains hybrid compounds

2-(methoxymethoxymethyl)aryllead triacetates, obtained in situ from the corresponding arylboronic acids, reacted with 4-hydroxycoumarins, leading to 3-(2-methoxymethoxymethyl)aryl-4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives in good to high yields. These compounds underwent a cascade sequence of reactions, deprotection-halogenation-annulation, to afford polyoxygenated tetracyclic 6H,11H-[2]benzopyrano-[4,3-c] [1]benzopyran-11-ones in good yields.

Since the discovery of warfarin-sensitive vitamin K 2,3-epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1), 26 human VKORC1 (hVKORC1) missense mutations have been associated with oral anticoagulant resistance (OACR). Assessment of warfarin resistance using the "classical" dithiothreitol-driven vitamin K 2,3-epoxide reductase (VKOR)

Coumarin forms in melilotoside (trans-ortho-coumaric acid glucoside)-containing plant species upon cell damage. In moldy melilotoside-containing plant material, trans-ortho-coumaric acid is converted by fungi to 4-hydroxycoumarin, two molecules of which spontaneously combine with formaldehyde to give dicoumarol. Dicoumarol causes internal bleeding

We report on the synthesis of 4-hydroxycoumarin dimers 1-15 bearing an aryl substituent on the central linker and fused benzopyranocoumarin derivatives 16-20 and on their in vitro broad anti-DNA and RNA virus activity evaluations. The chemical identities and structure of
