PHYTOCHEMICAL STUDY OF COUMARINS IN THE AERIAL PARTS OF PRANGOS FEDTSCHENKOI (REGEL ET SCHMALH.) KOROV

Аннотация

Coumarin compounds are derivatives of cis-ortho-hydroxycinnamic acids. They are known for their biological activities, particularly their anticoagulant effects, while furocoumarins act as photosensitizers, i.e., they increase skin sensitivity to UV radiation (applied in the treatment of vitiligo). From this perspective, the search for coumarin-containing plants, isolation of their bioactive compounds, identification of their chemical structures, and study of their pharmacological activity are highly relevant.
