As an important branch of heterocyclic compounds, coumarin and its derivatives with diverse potential biological activities have attracted wide attention and have been applied in medical-related fields. In this article, three cyclotriphosphazene derivatives bearing 4-methyl-7-hydroxycoumarin moieties with the numbers of 2, 4, and 6 were synthesized and characterized and their antitumor activities were investigated. All the new compounds were found to display antitumor activity in vitro against breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and 4T1 cells) with the IC50 values in the range of 108.72-188.44 μM and 75.93-154.91 μM, respectively. In contrast, the coumarin monomer displayed the values of 4140 μM and 1640 μM (IC50). Our results suggested that the antitumor activity was significantly enhanced when coumarin was introduced onto the surface of cyclotriphosphazenes, thereby providing potent candidate molecules for pharmaceutical applications.

Eighteen new fluorogenic analogues of organophosphorus nerve agents were synthesised and characterised. They included analogues of tabun, sarin, cyclosarin, soman, VX, and Russian VX, with the 7-oxy-4-methylcoumarin or 7-oxy-4-(trifluoromethyl)coumarin leaving group. These analogues inhibited acetylcholinesterase (AChE) effectively in vitro and therefore have potential as tools for the identification of novel organophosphatases in biological systems. Analogues of VX and Russian VX with the 7-amino-4-methylcoumarin group, although poor AChE inhibitors, may have utility for screening enzyme libraries for phosphoramidases capable of cleaving P-N bonds.
