Abstract
Pyridocoumarins are a class of synthetic and naturally occurring organic compounds with interesting biological activities. This review focuses on the synthetic strategies for the synthesis of pyridocoumarins and presents the biological properties of those compounds. The synthesis involves the formation of the pyridine ring, at first, from a coumarin derivative, such as aminocoumarins, hydroxycoumarins, or other coumarins. The formation of a pyranone moiety follows from an existing pyridine or piperidine or phenol derivative. For the above syntheses, [4 + 2] cycloaddition reactions, multi-component reactions (MCR), as well as metal-catalyzed reactions, are useful. Pyridocoumarins present anti-cancer, anti-HIV, antimalarial, analgesic, antidiabetic, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activities.
