description: Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) is recently declared pandemic (WHO) caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The virus was named Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), (Coronavirus Disease 2019). Currently, there is no specific drug for the therapy of COVID-19. So, there is a need to develop or find out the new drug from the existing to cure the COVID-19. Identification of a potent inhibitor of Methyltransferase, Endoribonuclease, Phosphatase and Main Protease enzymes of SARS CoV-2 by coumarin derivatives using <i>insilico</i> approach. The <i>in silico</i> studies were performed on maestro 12.0 software (Schrodinger LLC 2019, USA). Two thousand seven hundred fifty-five biologically active coumarin derivative was docked with above receptor proteins of SARS CoV-2. The molecular dynamic simulation of the top one ligand of respected proteins was performed. Top five ligands of each protein were taken for study. Coumarin derivatives actively interact with taken receptors and showed good docking results for Methyltransferase, Endoribonuclease, Phosphatase and Main Protease and top five compounds of each have docking score from –9.00 to –7.97, –8.42 to –6.80, –8.63 to –7.48 and –7.30 to –6.01 kcal/mol, respectively. The docked compounds were showed RMSD and binding stability of simulated ligands are show the potency of ligands against the SARS CoV-2. Our study provides information on drugs that may be a potent inhibitor of COVID-19 infection. Drug repurposing of the available drugs would be great help in the treatment of COVID-19 infection. The combination therapy of the finding may improve inhibitory activity. Communicated by Ramaswamy H.
