Synthesis and antibacterial activity of analogs of 5-arylidene-3-(4-methylcoumarin-7-yloxyacetylamino)-2-thioxo-1,3-thiazoli-din-4-one.

In an effort to develop new antimicrobial agents, 3-(4-methylcoumarin-7-yloxyacetylamino)-2-thioxo-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one (4) was synthesized by reaction of thiocarbonylbisthioglycolic acid with ethyl (4-methyl-2-oxo-2H-chromen-7-yloxy)aceto- hydrazide (3), which was prepared in turn from 7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin (1).
