Exploring 6‐Hydroxy‐3‐Aryl/Heteroarylcoumarins as Promising Candidates Against Trypanosoma cruzi
New therapies are urgently needed for Chagas disease, and screening of 6‐hydroxy‐3‐aryl/heteroarylcoumarin derivatives identified highly selective compounds with potent activity against T. cruzi. In particular, derivative 1f showed submicromolar trypomastigote potency, dual‐stage activity, and inhibition of amastigote‐to‐trypomastigote differentiation,
