Abstract

A novel series of 4-senecioyloxymethyl-6,7-dimethoxycoumarin, isolated from Crinum latifolium, was prepared by reacting 4-bromomethyl or 4-bromomethyl-6,7- dimethoxycoumarin with various carboxylic acids and examined for their anti-angiogenic activities in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Among them, 4e, 4f, 4g and 4i with noncyclic moiety exhibited potent anti-angiogenic activity. However, compounds with cyclic moiety such as phenyl, pyridinyl, thiophenyl and furanyl group did not exhibit any anti-angiogenic activity. Also, compounds 4f and 4g which exhibited strong anti-angiogenic activity in a dose-dependent manner showed antitumor activity.
