Determination of aqueous stability and degradation products of series of coumarin dimers
The stability in aqueous solution of five classes of coumarin dimers ( I– V, compounds 1– 29) was studied by HPLC–MS/MS at various pH values. The relationship between chemical structure and stability is discussed. It was found that dimeric compounds with strong electron withdrawing groups (EWGs) on...

Summary: | The stability in aqueous solution of five classes of coumarin dimers (
I–
V, compounds
1–
29) was studied by HPLC–MS/MS at various pH values. The relationship between chemical structure and stability is discussed. It was found that dimeric compounds with strong electron withdrawing groups (EWGs) on the α-carbon to the bridging C-atom are stable at all pH values, whereas other derivatives undergo retro-Michael addition at rates which are also affected by the substituents on the aromatic rings. In some cases formation of stable isomers or oxidation products was observed. In order to evaluate their developability and potential for progression to
in vivo studies, representative compounds were tested in an
in vitro microsomal stability assay. |
