Chronic diseases, notably cancer, pose a significant global threat to human life. Oncologists and medical professionals addressing malignancies confront challenges such as toxicity and multidrug resistance. To tackle these issues, the focus has shifted toward the employment of multifunctional colloidal gold nanoparticles.

Additionally, the improved non-catalytic synthesis of 7-azacoumarin-3-carboxylic acid is reported, which features water as the reaction medium and provides a convenient alternative to the known methods. The anticancer activity of the most potent 7-aza-coumarine-3-carboxamides against the HuTu 80 cell line is equal to that of reference Doxorubicin, while the selectivity towards the normal cell line is 9-14 fold higher.
