The reactions were carried out on microwave irradiation in good yield with short time and easy work-up. The structures of all the compounds have been confirmed on the basis of their analytical, IR, ^1H NMR, and mass spectral data.展开更多

This conversion can be achieved by ammoniation or etherification of the 6-pyridinium intermediate(3) which can be readily produced under mild reaction conditions. The chemistry and characterization of these compounds are presented, A plausible mechanism of the reaction is proposed.展开更多

The positive samples were confirmed by GC-MS. Methanol was used to extract 6-methyl coumarin from cosmetics. The chromatographic conditions of the two methods were optimized and the samples were determined. The recovery, precision, correlation coefficient, detection limit and quantitative limit of the two methods were compared. The results showed that the linear relationship between the two methods was good. The percentage recovery of standard addition by HPLC-DAD was 92.20%~102.80%, by RSD was 0.77%~2.00%;the detection limit was 0.05 mg/kg, the quantitative limit was 0.17 mg/kg. The percentage recovery of standard addition by GC-FID was 97.30%~103.28%, by RSD was 0.47%~4.87%;the detection limit was 1.3 mg/kg, the quantitative limit was 5.0 mg/kg. The detection limit by HPLC-DAD was lower and more sensitive than that by GC-FID , which also shows that HPLC-DAD has more advantages for the detection of low content samples.展开更多

Methods: Umbelliferone, umbelliferone 6-carboxylic acid, scopoletin, isoscopoletin, 7-methoxy coumarin, scoparone, scopolin, and esculetin have been previously isolated; however 2'-isopropyl psoralene was isolated from Angelica decursiva for the first time to evaluate their inhibitory effects against acetylcholinesterase(ACh E), butyrylcholinesterase(BCh E), and β-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1(BACE1) enzyme activity. We scrutinized the potentials of coumarins as cholinesterase and BACE1 inhibitors via enzyme kinetics and molecular docking simulation. Results: Among the test compounds, umbelliferone 6-carboxylic acid, esculetin and daphnetin exhibited potent inhibitory activity against ACh E, BCh E and BACE1. Both esculetin and daphnetin have a catechol group and exhibit significant anti-AD activity against ACh E and BCh E. In contrast, presence of a sugar moiety and methoxylation markedly reduced the anti-AD activity of the coumarins investigated in this study. With respect to BACE1 inhibition, umbelliferone 6-carboxylic acid, esculetin and daphnetin contained carboxyl or catechol groups, which significantly contributed to their antiAD activities. To further investigate these results, we generated a 3D structure of BACE1 using Autodock 4.2 and simulated binding of umbelliferone 6-carboxylic acid, esculetin and daphnetin. Docking simulations showed that different residues of BACE1 interacted with hydroxyl and carboxylic groups, and the binding energies of umbelliferone 6-carboxylic acid, esculetin and daphnetin were negative(-4.58,-6.25 and-6.37 kcal/mol respectively). Conclusions: Taken together, our results suggest that umbelliferone 6-carboxylic acid, esculetin and daphnetin have anti-AD effects by inhibiting ACh E, BCh E and BACE1, which might be useful against AD.展开更多
