Abstract

A number of 3-(3-pyridyl) coumarins with and without 4-methyl substituent have been prepared following Oglialoro and modified Perkin reactions. These compounds have been tested against fish and bacteria. Of all the compounds tested, 7-bromo-4-methyl-3-(3-pyridyl) coumarin exhibited maximum activity. A few have also shown bacteriostatic activity.
