RESUMO
The new Schiff bases bearing anthracene unit were synthesized from 2-aminoanthracene and various aldehydes such as: benzaldehyde, 4-(diphenylamino)benzaldehyde, 9-phenanthrenecarboxaldehyde, 9-anthracenecarboxaldehyde, and biphenyl-4-carboxaldehyde, 2-naphthaldehyde. Resulted azomethines were characterized by IR, NMR (1H and 13C), elemental analysis and UV-vis spectroscopy. The imine consists of anthracene and biphenyl moieties exhibited liquid crystal properties and their nematic phase showed Schlieren texture. The photoluminescence measurements carried out in solution and in solid state as blend with PMMA revealed the ability of the imines to emission of the blue light with quantum yield efficiency in the range of 2.18-6.03% in blend. Based on the electrochemical experiment they showed value of energy gap (Eg) in the range of 2.5-2.7eV. Additionally, density functional theory (DFT) was applied for calculations of both electronic structure and spectroscopic properties of synthesized Schiff bases. Moreover, the results obtained from preliminary tests of application of the azomethines in organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices confirmed their electron acceptor character.
RESUMO
In this study we identified three novel hydrochloride salts of cathinones 2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)-1-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)pentan-1-one (1a) (TH-PVP), 2-(methylamino)-1-(2-methylphenyl)-1-propanone (1b) (2-MMC) and 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)propan-1-one (1c) (4-CMC). Their properties have been examined through combinations of GC-MS, IR, NMR, electronic absorption spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction method. NMR solution spectra showed readily diagnostic H-1 and C-13 signals from methyl, N-methyl and carbonyl groups. Additionally the use of thionation and amination reactions for identification of selected cathinones was presented.

Four symmetrical N-acylsubstituted dihydrazones containing bithiophene core were synthesized from condensation of 2,2'-bithiophene-5,5'-dicarboxyaldehyde with benzoic, isonicotinoyl, 2-thiophenic and 2-furoic hydrazide. The obtained compounds were characterized through the data from (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), infrared spectroscopy (IR), elemental analysis, UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, photoluminescence (PL), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) measurements. Additionally, the electronic properties including orbital energies and resulting energy gaps were calculated by density functional theory (DFT). Their thermal behavior was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). They were thermal sable up to 320°C. The prepared N-acylsubstituted dihydrazones emitted light with λ(em) in the range of 499-530 nm in solution, whereas, in solid state as blend with PMMA blue emission was observed. They undergo quasi-reversible and irreversible electrochemical reduction and oxidation processes, respectively. Additionally, the selected compounds were tested preliminary as component of active layer in organic photovoltaic cells. The highest value of power conversion efficiency, equal to 1.68% under simulated 100 mW/cm(2) AM 1.5G irradiation was found for device with the architecture ITO/PEDOT:PSS/P3HT:PCBM:FBTH (1:2:2)/Al.
RESUMO
In photodynamic therapy (PDT), a noninvasive anticancer treatment, visible light, is used as a magic bullet selectively destroying cancer cells by a photosensitizer that is nontoxic in the dark. Protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) is a natural photosensitizer synthesized in the cell, which is also a chelating agent that if bonded to Fe(2+) forms heme, a central component of hemoglobin. Therefore, xenobiotic iron chelators can disturb iron homeostasis, increasing the accumulation of PpIX, obstructing the last step of heme biosynthesis, and enhancing PDT efficiency. However, the attempts to use this promising idea have not proved to be hugely successful. Herein, we revisited this issue by analyzing the application of iron chelators highly toxic in the dark, which should have higher Fe(2+) affinity than the nontoxic chelators used so far. We have designed and prepared thiosemicarbazones (TSC) with the highest dark cellular cytotoxicity among TSCs ever reported. We demonstrate that compound 2 exerts powerful PDT enhancement when used in combination with 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA), a precursor of PpIX.
RESUMO
Synthetic, spectroscopy and mechanistic aspects of preparation of selected hydroxyquinolines and their analogues or derivatives contained methoxy, fluoro, chloro, carboxylic, carbodithioic and phosphinate or dioxaphosphinane groups were elaborated. The multinuclear NMR and five single crystal X-ray characteristics of the series of quinolines have been determined. The molecular orbitals of the selected hydroxyquinolines have been calculated by density functional theory. The X-ray and NMR studies of 8-[(5,5-dimethyl-2-oxido-1,3,2-dioxaphosphinan-2-yl)oxy]-5,7-dibromo-2-methylquinoline and 8-[(5,5-dimethyl-2-oxido-1,3,2-dioxaphosphinan-2-yl)oxy]-5-fluoro-2-methylquinoline indicate the appearance of anomeric effect.

Two series of azines and their azomethine analogues were prepared via condensation reaction of benzaldehyde, 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde, 4-pyridinecarboxaldehyde, 2-thiophenecarboxaldehyde, and 4-(diphenylamino)benzaldehyde with hydrazine monohydrate and 1,4-phenylenediamine, respectively. The structures of given compounds were characterized by FTIR, (1)H NMR, and (13)C NMR spectroscopy as well as elemental analysis. Optical, electrochemical, and thermal properties of all compounds were investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), UV-vis spectroscopy, stationary and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy, and cycling voltammetry (CV). Additionally, the electronic properties, that is, orbital energies and resulting energy gap were calculated theoretically by density functional theory (DFT). Influence of chemical structure of the compounds on their properties was analyzed.
