Bent-core liquid crystalline cyanostilbenes: Fluorescence switching and thermochromism

Fluorescent bent-core molecules, bearing one or two cyanostilbene units in the lateral structure and different positions of the cyano group (α- or β-isomers), are described with the aim of modulating the molecular packing and fluorescence properties. These compounds give rise to a variety of crystal polymorphs and bent-core liquid crystalline phases (SmCP, Colr and B6), offering the unique chance to study the fluorescence properties of the cyanostilbene structure in different phases. Experimental and computational studies elucidate geometrical and electronic properties of these bent-core structures but especially the fluorescence properties (spectral positions, quantum yields and decay curves), in a detailed comparison between diluted solutions, in dichloromethane (DCM) or poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA), and condensed phases. Quantum yields as high as 70% have been obtained in some diluted solutions (PMMA) and condensed phases. Remarkably, the quantum yield values depend on the position of the cyano group, being higher for β- than for the α-isomers due to the higher radiative rates and lower non-radiative rates of the former. The photophysical characterization in the condensed phase focuses on RT studies with solid samples and different processing, and show that, upon aggregation, interactions between the cyanostilbene groups result in changes of the emission spectra and dynamics compared to the diluted systems in DCM and PMMA, giving rise to H-aggregations of varying strength. Furthermore, the compounds exhibit thermochromism, showing a green-yellow fluorescence in the pristine crystalline phase that changes to blue on heating to the liquid crystal phase. This journal is

Expanded hexapyrrolohexaazacoronenes. Near-infrared absorbing chromophores with interrupted peripheral conjugation

A family of azacoronenes containing up to two saturated bridges at the periphery was synthesized from substituted hexapyrrolylbenzenes using a two-step condensation-aromatization procedure. The introduction of peripheral bridges provides access to nonplanar, sterically crowded systems that display complex reactivity patterns, involving stereospecific aromatization of bridges and nucleophile additions. Despite the interrupted conjugation on the periphery, the new azacoronenes have easily accessible higher oxidation levels, and a quadruply charged species was chemically generated by reaction with SbCl5. These oxidized species show extensive π-electron conjugation and are efficient UV-vis-NIR absorbers, active up to ca. 2400 nm. Interruption of peripheral conjugation is shown to induce a tendency toward biradicaloid electron configurations in doubly oxidized species.

Design, synthesis and antiproliferative activity of tripentones: A new series of antitubulin agents

Structure-activity relationship studies of a new series of tripentones (thieno[2,3-b]pyrrolizin-8-ones), led us to prepare several derivatives with antiproliferative activities. The most promising 3-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)thieno[2,3-b]pyrrolizin-8-one 20 (leukemia L1210, IC50 = 15 nM) was shown to be a potent inhibitor of tubulin polymerization.

Design of Inhibitors from the Three-Dimensional Structure of Alcohol Dehydrogenase. Chemical Synthesis and Enzymatic Properties

Inhibitors of liver alcohol dehydrogenase were designed from the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme.The ligand to the catalytic zinc ion is an amide group or, better, a formamide group.With the latter function, a hydrogen bond between the NH group and the hydroxyl group of Ser-48 may be formed.The hydrophobic substrate binding site brings structural restraints. α-ω bifunctional molecules show good inhibitory properties possibly due to the interactions with polar residues at the entrance of the substrate binding site.
