ABSTRACT
A series of 3-acetyl-8-methoxycoumarin appended thiosemicarbazones (1-4) was prepared from the reaction of 3-acetyl-8-methoxycoumarin with 4(N)-substituted thiosemicarbazides in a view of ascertaining their biological properties with the change of N-terminal substitution in the thiosemicarbazide moiety. Comprehensive characterization was brought about by various spectral and analytical methods. The molecular structures of all the compounds were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Binding studies with Calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) and proteins such as Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) and Human Serum Albumin (HSA) indicated an intercalative mode of binding with DNA and static quenching mechanism with proteins. The compounds cleaved plasmid DNA (pBR322) and acted well as free radical scavengers. A good spectrum of antimicrobial activity was observed against four bacterial and five fungal pathogens. The compounds exhibited profound antiproliferative activity on MCF-7 (human breast cancer) and A549 (human lung carcinoma) cell lines. Assay on human normal keratinocyte cell line HaCaT showed that the compounds were non-toxic to normal cells.
