The synthesis of a series of N-(methylene-4-oxo coumarinyl) carbamates by the condensation of various carbamates with 4-hydroxy coumarins in the presence of triethylorthoformate was undertaken to obtain the the title compounds in 50-55% yields. Preliminary data shows that only few molecules are active against B. subtilis, S. aureus, E. coli and P. aeruginosa at minium inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of 100, 300, 500 micrograms/ml compared to streptomycin (CAS 57-92-1) and kanamycin (CAS 59-01-8). The alkyl groups present in the benzenoid part and the higher amino acid residues like 3a, 3c, 5a and 5b were found to be more active in the title compounds (i.e. 2d and 2e).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.
