Furochromone derivatives are important synthetic targets which showed a myriad of interesting biological activities. Ammi visnaga (Umbelliferae) is the most famous source of these derivatives, which has been used in folk medicine for millennia targeting different ailments. Since the isolation of furochromone derivatives, different synthetic methodologies were developed for their preparation. Despite the recent interesting findings on this class of compounds, the chemical literatures lack a comprehensive summary on the synthetic methodologies and biological activities of furochromone derivatives. This review highlights recent advances in furochromones chemistry by discussing different synthetic procedures developed for the preparation of naturally occurring derivatives as well as other unique derivatives which showed promising biological activities. It also sheds light on the most common reactions of furochromone …
