Accepted 13 January, 2012 Based on the fundamentals of organic chemistry, the approach leads to the corresponding amides in good yields which were the reaction of esters with primary amines. In our laboratory, there was no reaction when we tried to react methyl 2-(2-oxo-2H-chromen-7-yloxy)acetate with 2-(2-aminophenyl) benzothiazole). Although the spectral data was so enough for validation of the structure of the product but in the thin layer chromatography (TLC) test, there still appear two spots for the reactant (no reaction); so only X-ray single crystallography will solve this problem and identify the structure of this shiny light brown crystal. Co-crystal structure was synthesized in methanolic solution from methyl 2-(2- oxo-2H-chromen-7-yloxy)acetate and 2-(2-aminophenyl)benzothiazole). Single X-ray crystallography was studied and it was found that there was no hydrogen bonding between the molecules, moreover, the co-crystal is very stable. Key words: 2-(2-aminophenyl)benzothiazole), co-crystal, coumarins, methanol, single-crystal X-ray. INTRODUCTION During the last twenty years, the study of the biological development of coumarins as potential drugs. So far, activities of coumarin derivatives has been the aim of some coumarins, for example, warfarin, acenocoumarol, many researchers (Shih et al., 2007; Li et al., 2007; Nofal armillarisin A, hymecromone and carbochromen have et al., 2002; Al-Amiery et al., 2011; Kadhum et al., 2011a, been approved for therapeutic purposes in clinic. More 2011b). Although most of the existing natural coumarins importantly, an increasing number of coumarin have been isolated from higher plants, some of them compounds have displayed great potency in the treat- have been discovered in microorganisms, for example, ment of various types of diseases (Shi and Zhou, 2011). aminocoumarin antibiotics: novobiocin, coumermycin A1 Structure activity relationships of coumarin derivatives and chlorobiocin (produced by the actinomycete have revealed that the presence of substituted amino Streptomyces niveus) (Završniket al., 2011). Synthetic derivatives is an essential feature of their coumarin derivatives have been obtained by chemical pharmacological action. Based on these findings, we try modification of the coumarin ring. Coumarins and their to describe the synthesis of some compounds featuring derivatives have attracted considerable attention due to different heterocyclic rings fused onto the coumarin their extensively biological activities such as antibacterial, moiety with the aim of obtaining more potent pharmaco- antifungal, antiviral, anti-tubercular, anti-malarial, logically active compounds, but no reaction has been anticoagulant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antioxidant done. The structures of methyl 2-(3-chloro-4-methyl-2- properties and so on. Numerous efforts including the oxo-2H-chromen-7-yloxy)acetate and 2-(2-aminophenyl) separation and purification of naturally occurring benzothiazole) are shown in Figure 1. coumarins from a variety of plants as well as artificial synthesis of coumarin compounds with novel structures and properties have been focusing on the research and EXPERIMENTAL The chemicals used during synthesis were supplied by Sigma- Aldrich.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION From the crystal structure (Figure 3), it was found that there were two molecules in the crystal structure, first one The interest in co-crystals driven largely by new was methyl 2-(3-chloro-4-methyl-2-oxo-2H-chromen-7- opportunities in the design and construction of solid-state yloxy)acetate and the second 2-(2-aminophenyl) materials (Jones, 1997) has also brought about an benzothiazole). The crystal structure co-crystal is shown equally strong interest to discover new and efficient in Figure 3. The crystal data and experimental details are methods of co-crystal synthesis. Specifically, in addition shown in Table 1. The bond lengths and bond angles of to the traditional means of constructing co-crystals by co- co-crystal are shown in Table 2. Anisotropic displacement crystallization from solution, several research groups parameters and isotropic displacement parameters are have described the construction of two component or listed in Tables 4 and 5. The single crystal of co-crystal binary co-crystals by grinding together the two co-crystal suitable for X-ray diffraction analyses was obtained from components (Etter et al., 1993). It is too difficult to methanol solutions and the structure was examined by a synthesize co-crystal. Many researches try to build a co- single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.
