Furan is a cyclic flammable liquid compound C4H4O that is obtained from wood oils of pines or made synthetically and is used especially in organic synthesis. Furan is aromatic because a pair of lone pair electrons of the oxygen atom in its molecule forms a large π bond in the plane of the conjugated orbital, making a total of 6 electrons in the plane of the conjugated plane, conforming to the 4n+2 structure. Aromaticity makes furan have the property of easy substitution and difficult addition. The other lone pair of electrons in oxygen stretches out. The oxygen atom itself conforms to sp2 hybridization. Due to the presence of the aromatic ring, the chemical behavior of furan is not very similar to that of other unsaturated heterocycles. The oxygen in the aromatic ring has an electron-donating effect, so the electrophilic substitution reactivity of furan is stronger than that of benzene.

Thiophene is a five-membered heterocyclic compound containing a sulfur heteroatom with the molecular formula C4H4S. Thiophene is aromatic and is very similar to benzene; electrophilic substitution reaction is easier than benzene, and it is mainly substituted at the 2-position. Thiophene ring system has certain stability to oxidant.
Coumarin occurs naturally in a variety of plants, such as lentils, sweet sawdust, vanilla grass, and sweet grass. Coumarin has a simple structure, benzopyrone, associated with different reaction centers. Coumarins are further subdivided into different classes: simple coumarins, pyranocoumarins, furanocoumarins, dicoumarins and isocoumarins. Coumarin derivatives are an important class of natural plant metabolites with various biological activities. They can also be synthesized artificially, and various synthetic coumarin derivatives (azoles, sulfonyls, furans, pyrazoles, etc.) have shown good anticancer, antitumor and antiproliferative activities. Coumarin derivatives are not only effective anticancer agents, but also possess minimum side effects. Based on different substitution patterns, these potential active substances show a great ability to modulate potential anticancer activities.
