- Porphyrin containing lipophilic amide groups as a photosensitizer for dye-sensitized solar cells
-
In this study, synthesis and investigation of a novel zinc-porphyrin derivative bearing C24-containing amide groups for potential use in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are presented. According to absorption spectra and electrochemical data, the target porphyrin has appropriate highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy levels. The device studies revealed that the DSSCs based on the target porphyrin exhibited higher light harvesting efficiency in the Q-band region and an increased photocurrent, compared to the DSSCs based on a benchmark derivative bearing no alkyl amide groups on the meso-phenyl substituents. The optimum DSSC based on the target porphyrin gave a short-circuit photocurrent density (Jsc), an open-circuit voltage (Voc) and a fill factor (FF) of 5.6 mA cm-2, 0.7 V and 0.78, respectively, with an overall power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 3.1%.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel aliphatic amido-quaternary ammonium salts for anticancer chemotherapy: Part i
-
We synthesized novel aliphatic amido-quaternary ammonium salts in an effort to discover anticancer agents that increase Ras homolog gene family, member B, (RhoB) levels. These compounds exert anti-proliferative activities against several human cancer cell types. Seventeen compounds, varying in aliphatic carbon chain length and N-substituents, were synthesized and their biological activities were evaluated. Of these 17 compounds, compound 3i emerged as the most promising anticancer compound by promoting apoptosis through the RhoB mediated pathway. Potent biological activities observed for these novel aliphatic amido-quaternary ammonium salt analogues support their potential as anticancer, chemotherapeutic agents.

- A WAX ESTER FROM PIPER CLARKII
-
A novel type of wax ester has been isolated from a petrol extract of stems and leaves of Piper clarkii and its structure established as 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propyl tetracosanoate.The structure was verified by synthesis.The oxygenated cyclohexane (+)-crotepoxide and β-sitosterol were also isolated. Key words: Piper clarkii; Piperaceae; wax ester; 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propyl tetracosanoate; (+)-crotepoxide.
