Fused chromones are attracting increasing attention as novel therapeutic agents due to their wide distribution in nature, effective bioactivities and low toxicity. 6-Carbonyl-7-hydroxychromones proved to be versatile synthons for the synthesis of linear hetarenochromones by annulation of heterocycle to the chromone core. The present review is focused on the syntheses of furo[3,2- g]chromones, pyrano[3,2-g]chromones and some of their N-containing analogues, namely chromeno[6,7-d]isoxazoles, pyrano[3’,2’:6,7]chromeno[4,3-b]pyridine-5,11-diones and pyrano[3’,2’:6,7]chromeno[4,3-c]pyridine-5,11-diones based on the 7-hydroxy-6-formylchromones or 7-hydroxy-6-acetylchromones and shows the current state of research to date. The methods for the synthesis of the starting 7-hydroxy-6-formylchromones and 7-hydroxy-6-acetylchromones have been also mentioned. The biological activity of naturally occurring and modified synthetic linear hetarenochromones has been also represented. ________________________________________________________________________________ Introduction by furochromone and pyranochromone Chromone derivatives represent an derivatives.

Khellin works by relaxing the smooth muscle of the ureter. It was, however, a chance observation in 1945 by G V Anrep, a pupil of both Pavlov and Starling, that led to the development from khellin of modern drugs for asthma and heart disease. Anrep was Professor of Pharmacology in Cairo and his technician who had severe angina got renal colic and treated himself with khella. When the man returned to work Anrep perceptively noticed that he no longer had angina and this stimulated him to investigate the effect of khellin on the heart. Using the heart-lung preparation Anrep measured the coronary blood flow in dogs and showed that khellin was an effective and selective coronary vasodilator. Then he did a clinical trial in patients with angina which gave favourable results. His seminal paper reporting these findings was published in the British Heart Journal (1946;8:171-7.) This stimulated research elsewhere; and in Belgium the work of R Charlier and J Broek- huysen, who prepared hundreds of compounds with emphasis on the benzofurane portion of khellin, led in 1961 to the synthesis of amiodarone. The name is derived from am, to indicate the presence of an amine function; iod, for the iodine moiety; and arone from ben- ziodarone, an earlier drug in the ketonic ben- zofurane group. F Bossert, working for the Bayer company, decided to use khellin as the starting point for his endeavour to find a coronary vasodilator http://heart.bmj.com/ that worked intravenously as well as orally.

ABSTRACT The present review represents a board description for the methods used in the synthesis of chromones and some of its derivatives. The rigid bicyclic chromone fragment has been classified as a privileged structure in drug discovery, due to its use in a wide variety of pharmacologically active compounds; few examples as therapeutic agents chromones are used as scaffolds for the development of bioactive compounds, the application in medicinal chemistry, such as preparation of fluorescence probes, due to photochemical properties of chromones have been also mentioned. This review is limited to the work done during the last ten years. Keywords: Chromone, Synthesis, Reactions, Biological Activity, Applications, Drugs. GENERAL INTRODUCTION Chromone chemistry has been widely explored and extensively reviewed over the past few years.

  • Alcoholic & Phenolic Glycosides
    Alcoholic & phenolic glycosides 1- Salicin: Salicin is classified as: 1- Alcoholic glycoside, as it contains free primary alcoholic group. 2- A phenolic glycoside, as its aglycone is phenolic in nature. CH2OH Gl O Salicin Properties of salicin 1- Salicin is obtained from different species of Salix, the principle commercial source is Salix fragilis. Salix images 2-Salicin is used for many years as a remedy in the treatment of fever and rheumatism.It is now used as an analgesic-antipyretic in case of periodic fever. It is better tolerated in the stomach than sodium salicylate, asprin and other antipyretics and anti-inflammatory agents, which have largely displaced in medical practice. 1 3. Salicin is hydrolyzed by the enzyme emulsin into saligenin (Salicyl alcohol) and glucose. 4.Acid hydrolysis of salicin gives glucose and a phenolic ether called saliretin which is a condensation product of two molecules of saligenin. CH2OH Gl O Acid Enzyme CH2OH CH2OH O + Glucose HO + Glucose Saligenin CH2OH Saliretin 5. Oxidation of saligenin gives salicylic acid and this accounts for the medicinal value of salicin. 2. Arbutin 1- Arbutin is a phenolic glycoside that occurs in bearberry leaves Arectostaphyllos uva ursi. 2- When hydrolysed with acids or with emulsin it yields glucose and hydroquinone. 2 3- It is used as diuretic and also has bactericidal action. This activity is due to the hydroquinone given by hydrolysis. Uva ursi leaf contains also methylarbutin (the methyl ether of arbutin), that also contributes to the diuretic and urinary antiseptic action of the leave.

  • Time-Resolved Spectroscopic Studies of Psoralens
    TIME-RESOLVED SPECTROSCOPIC STUDIES OF PSORALENS, KHELLIN, VISNAGIN AND LUMICHROME AND DERIVATIVES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Hannan Fersi, M.S. ***** The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Matthew S. Platz, Advisor Professor Terry L. Gustafson _________________________________ Professor Anne B. McCoy Advisor Graduate Program in Chemistry Professor Stephen A. Sebo ABSTRACT Psoralens, coumarins and flavins are biologically active photosensitizers, which have been used in pathogen inactivation of blood products, cancer treatment and skin diseases. Laser flash photolysis (LFP) with UV-visible and infrared detection and Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations were used to directly observe and identify the triplet states of psoralens, coumarins and lumichromes, and their intermediate derivatives, and to understand their chemical reactivity. The triplet-excited states of the parent psoralen as well as 8-methoxypsoralen, 5-methoxypsoralen and trimethylpsoralen were directly observed in acetonitrile using UV-visible or time-resolved infrared (TRIR) spectroscopy. TRIR spectra of trimethylpsoralen radical ions were also obtained. These experimental observations were supported by computational studies. The vibrational spectra of triplet visnagin and khellin, and their radical cations and anions were obtained upon 266 nm LFP in acetonitrile. Visnagin and khellin triplet excited states react with chloranil to form their radical cations and the chloranil radical anion. The radical cation of khellin and visnagin both present a vibrational band at 1136 cm-1. The excited states of khellin, visnagin and chloranil are all involved in the light induced electron transfer reaction.
