RESUMO
An efficient formylation of pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline derivatives has been reached by the use of TBHP (tBuOOH) and Et3N as the mediator. In this strategy, CHO and CDO can be readily incorporated into heteroarenes by the utilization of CHCl3 and CDCl3 as the carbonyl sources. Interestingly, a solvent-controlled chemoselectivity was observed. The use of PhCl as a solvent resulted in dearomatization and peroxidation of pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines, delivering functionalized peroxides in 53-64% yields.
RESUMO
The abuse of tetracycline can lead to its residue in animal derived foods, posing many potential hazards to human health. Therefore, rapid and accurate detection of tetracycline is an important means to ensure food safety. Nitrogen doped and phosphorus doped silicon quantum dots (N-SiQDs, P-SiQDs) with remarkable optical stability were fabricated via a one-pot hydrothermal procedure in this study. Upon the excitation at 346 nm, N-SiQDs and P-SiQDs emitted fluorescence at 431 nm and 505 nm, respectively. Two SiQDs had the potential to serve as a probe for detecting low concentrations of tetracycline (TC), employing a mechanism of the static quenching effect. The calibration curves of N-SiQDs and P-SiQDs were linear within the range of 0-0.8 µM and 0-0.4 µM, the limits of detection were low as 5.35 × 10-4 µmol/L and 6.90 × 10-3 µmol/L, respectively. This method could be used successfully to detect TC in honey samples. Moreover, the remarkable antibacterial efficacy of two SiQDs could be attributed to the generation of a large number of intracellular reactive oxygen species. The SEM images showed that the structure of bacterial cell was disrupted and the surface became irregular when treated with both SiQDs. These properties enabled potential usage of SiQDs as excellent antibacterial material for different biomedical applications.

The incidence of infections caused by drug-resistant bacteria has been one of the most serious health threats in the past and is substantially increasing in an alarming rate. Therefore, the development of new antimicrobial agents to combat bacterial resistance effectively is urgent. This study focused on the design and synthesis of 40 novel tetrahydrobenzothiophene amide/sulfonamide derivatives and their antibacterial activities were evaluated. Compounds 2p, 6p, and 6 s exhibited significant inhibitory effects on the growth of bacteria. To assess their safety, the cytotoxicity of the compounds was assessed using human normal liver cells, revealing that compound 6p has lower cytotoxicity. A mouse wound healing experiment demonstrated that compound 6p effectively improved wound infection induced by trauma and accelerated the healing process. Compound 6p holds promise as a potential therapeutic agent for combating bacterial infections.
