Synthesis and Characterisation of Coumarin Analogues Using Palladium Catalyst and their Free Radical Scavenging Activity

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Coumarins are naturally and synthetically derived compounds containing oxygen. In this work, coumarin analogues were synthesised by Suzuki cross-coupling reaction using boronic acid in the presence of a palladium catalyst with a base. The synthesised compounds were screened for free radical scavenging activity by the DPPH method. The synthesised compound Ethyl 6-(4-fluorophenyl)-8-formyl-2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate showed a better inhibition percentage than ethyl 6-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-8-formyl-2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate. The compound Ethyl 6-(4-fluorophenyl)-8-formyl-2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate showed 80% inhibition while Ethyl 6-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-8-formyl-2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate showed 75% inhibition.
