Smokefoot: Support. And its strange a lot of Wikipedia chemical articles first talk about the compound and afterwards the group. But probably because of the forced "singular title".

Smokefoot The current article seems to conflate coumarin the chemical species with both warfarin and the coumarin family of compounds. I'm not sure whether that is deliberately done to confuse, but it certainly does. It would be very good to have two separate articles. It seems that the term 'coumarins' may refer generally to all derivatives, or more specifically to pharma/rodenticides which are apparently not all
4-hydroxycoumarins. From the style guide,
Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Chemistry/Compound classes, it seems that
Coumarin compound would be a reasonable title, or something similar.

Support: Per Latrissium's suggestion
Coumarin compound or other title with >1 words. Differentiation by only 1 letter would be confusing.
