1,1'-Carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) Mediated Facile Synthesis, Structural Characterization, Antimicrobial Activity, and in-silico Studies of Coumarin- 3-carboxamide Derivatives

Background: Despite the availability of a variety of antibacterial agents, re-emergence of pathogenic bacteria is still a serious medical concern. So, identification of new, safer, and selective antibacterial agents is the key interest in the medicinal chemistry research. Method: To explore the antimicrobial activity of coumarin-3-carboxamides for a range of bacterial and fungal strains, twenty eight derivatives were synthesized by the reaction...
