Coumarin is a heterocyclic moiety containing benzo pyran ring structure. It is widely distributed in the plant kingdom as a glycoside. Many compounds of medicinal and pharmaceutical importance possess coumarin ring structure. Drugs with coumarin structure can be synthesized by many well-known synthetic reactions. Coumarin derivatives were found to be antibacterial, anticoagulant, antiinflammatory, anti-HIV, anti-cancer and antioxidant. As part of the search for new and effective antibacterial agents, eight novel derivatives of coumarins were synthesized by Mannich reaction. All the compounds were evaluated for antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli using ciprofloxacin as standard and DMSO as solvent. Three of the synthesized derivatives exhibited good antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The work must be extended so as to develop coumarin derivatives into highly effective antibacterial agents.

Chalcone derivatives were synthesized by reaction of some benzaldehyde derivatives with acetophenone, then the products obtained were allowed to react withurea, thiourea and hydroxylamine, to give the heterocyclic derivatives of oxazine, thiazine and isoxazole, respectively.In this study, a series of chalcones and substituted pyrazole compounds were synthesized according to green chemistry methods of conventional and microwave irradiation by using substituted acetophenone, substituted benzaldehyde, hydrazine hydrate and PEG-400. The synthesized compounds were characterized by UV-Visible, FT-IR and 1H NMR spectral techniques. The purity of the synthesized compounds were monitored by TLC and tested for their antibacterial activity by Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) method against two different microorganisms Staphylococcus auras (MTCC3381), and Escherichia coli (MTCC739).

The synthesis and antibacterial activity of two new highly truncated derivatives of the natural product abyssomicin C are reported. This work outlines the limits of structural truncation of the natural product and consequently provides insights for further structure–activity relationship studies towards novel antibiotics targeting 4-amino-4-deoxychorismate (ADC) synthase. Specifically, it is demonstrated that the synthetically challenging bicyclic motif is essential for activity towards methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
