Pyrimidine-fused compounds are of great interest for the discovery of potent bioactive agents. This study describes the synthesis of novel pyranopyrimidines 3a-f and pyranotriazolopyrimidines 4a-d derivatives via the cyclocondensation reaction of α-functionalized iminoether 2, which was obtained from 2-amino-3-cyanopyrane 1, with a series of primary aromatic amines and hydrazides, respectively. Structures of all synthesized compounds were established on the basis of spectroscopic methods including H NMR, C NMR and ES-HRMS.

Objectives: This work describes the synthesis, the bioactivity and the structure-activity relationship of new derivatives from a natural coumarin.

Methods: (-)-Deltoin 1 and the corresponding isoxazolines and aziridines were characterized by spectroscopic means. The cytotoxic (HTC-116, IGROV-1 and OVCAR-3 cancer cell lines) and 5-lipoxygenase activity of (-)-deltoin 1 and its structural analogues have been evaluated.

A series of new 1,2,3-triazole linked coumarinopyrazole conjugates 4a-e and 5a-e have been synthesized via the Copper(I)-catalysed Alkyne-Azide Cycloaddition (CuAAC). Going through the reaction of compound 2 with the 3-propargyl bromide gave a mixture of propargylated regioisomers 3 + 3' used as a dipolarophile to access to triazoles 4a-e and 5a-e. The structures of the prepared cycloadducts were determined by H, C and 2D-NMR techniques and by HRMS analysis.
