A series of aminobenzoic acid crystals with stacking-induced emission properties has been achieved and the packing structures of the hydrogen-bonded acid dimers provided an explanation for the emission characteristics of the crystals.

Stationary absorption, fluorescence excitation and fluorescence spectra for 9(10H)-acridinone, 9(10-methyl)-acridinone, 2-methyl-9(10-methyl)-acridinone, 2-nitro-9(10-methyl)-acridinone, 9(10-ethyl)-acridinone and 9(10-phenyl)-acridinone dissolved in 1,4-dioxane, methyl alcohol or acetonitrile, as well as the available spectral characteristics reported by others were compared with those predicted theoretically at the semi-empirical PM3/CI (including the solvent effect within the COSMO model) or PM3/S levels of theory, in order to interpret spectral features of the compounds, i.e. the energies and probabilities of S0 → Sn, S0 → T1, T1 → T2, S1 → S0, T1 → S0 and S1 → T1 transitions. Calculations at the PM3 and PM3/CI levels of theory enabled the structural changes accompanying S0 → S1, S1 → T1 and T1 → S0 transitions to be investigated; they yielded, moreover, basic physicochemical characteristics of the molecules in the ground and excited electronic states. Theoretically predicted dipole moments and charge distributions in the S0, S1 and T1 states provided further insight into the nature of electronic transitions in 9-acridinones. The predicted characteristics correlate quite well with the available experimental ones, thus providing confirmation of the utility of theory in predicting the features of electronically excited molecules and interpreting the electronic transitions occurring in them.

In continuation of our efforts to develop new drugs with antibacterial properties we have synthesized and evaluated new 1,2,3-triazole derivatives from acridone. The synthetic approach was started by the preparation of acridone skeleton through the Ullman condensation of 2-bromobenzoic acid and aniline derivatives. Subsequently, acridone nucleus was functionalized with propargyl bromide. Then, a click reaction of the latter compound and aromatic azides led to the formation of the title compounds in good yields. The synthesized compounds were screened for their in vitro antibacterial activity against one gram-positive bacteria S. aureus and three gram-negative bacteria P. putida, K. pneumoniae and E. coli. Among the synthesized compounds, 2-methyl-10-((1-(o-tolyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl)acridone (4e) had the most potent inhibitory activity against S. aureus with MIC = 10.1 μg/mL. Then, in silico docking studies were used in order to understand the binding interactions and mode of action of these compounds.

COX-2 and STAT3 are two key culprits in the glioma microenvironment. Herein, to inhibit COX-2 and block STAT3 signaling, we disclosed 27 N-anthraniloyl tryptamine compounds based on the combination of melatonin derivatives and N-substituted anthranilic acid derivatives. Among them, NP16 showed the best antiproliferative activity and moderate COX-2 inhibition. Of note, NP16 decreased the level of p-JAK2 and p-STAT3, and blocked the nuclear translocation of STAT3 in GBM cell lines. Moreover, NP16 downregulated the MMP-9 expression of BV2 cells in a co-culture system of BV2 and C6 glioma cells, abrogated the proliferative/invasive/migratory abilities of GBM cells, induced apoptosis by ROS and the Bcl-2-regulated apoptotic pathway, and induced obvious G2/M arrest in glioma cells in vitro. Furthermore, NP16 displayed favorable pharmacokinetic profiles covering long half-life (11.43 ± 0.43 h) and high blood-brain barrier permeability. Finally, NP16 effectively inhibited tumor growth, promoted the survival rate, increased the expression of E-cadherin and reduced overproduction of PGE2, MMP-9, VEGF-A and the level of p-STAT3 in tumor tissue, and improved the anxiety-like behavior in C6 glioma model. All these evidences demonstrated N-anthraniloyl tryptamine derivatives as multifunctional anti-glioma agents with high potency could drain the swamp to beat glioma.
