Abstract :

Furan is a heterocyclic organic compound consisting of a five-membered aromatic ring with four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. The class of compounds containing such rings is also referred to as furans. Furan is a colorless, flammable, highly volatile liquid with a boiling point 31.3°C close to room temperature. Furan derivative is an imperative class of heterocyclic compound that has important biological properties. Furan is rapidly and extensively absorbed from the intestine and the lung. It can pass through biological membranes, and enter various organs. Compounds comprising the furan or tetrahydrofuran ring are biologically active and are existent in a number of pharmaceutical products. comprehensive review on Furan and it’s biological activity has unveiled the versatile nature of furan compounds, these molecules exhibit a wide range of biological activities, including anti-malarial, anti-bacterial, anti- cancer, anti-convulsant, anti- oxidant activities. The importance of furan derivatives plays a major role in drug devolpment and therapeutic interventions and it holds premises for the development of novel treatments and medicines, benefitting both scientific advancements and human health.
