Pyropheophorbide-a methyl ester (PPa-OMe) has been modified by attaching electron-donor and -acceptor groups to alter its linear and nonlinear optical properties. Regioselective bromination of the terminal vinyl position and Suzuki coupling were used to attach a 4-(N,N-diethylaminophenyl) electron-donor group. The electron-acceptor dicyanomethylene was attached at the cyclic ketone position through a Knoevenagel condensation. Four different derivatives of PPa-OMe, containing either electron-donor or electron-acceptor groups, or both, were converted to hydrophilic bis-TEG amides to generate a series of amphiphilic dyes. The absorption and emission properties of all the dyes were compared to a previously reported push-pull type porphyrin-based dye and a commercial push-pull styryl dye, FM4-64. Electrochemical measurements reveal that the electron donor group causes a greater decrease in HOMO-LUMO gap than the electron-acceptor. TD-DFT calculations on optimized geometries (DFT) of all four dyes show that the HOMO is mostly localized on the donor, 4-(N,N-diethylaminophenyl), while the LUMO is distributed around the chlorin ring and the electron-acceptor. Hyper-Rayleigh scattering experiments show that the first-order hyperpolarizabilities of the dyes increase on attaching either electron-donor or -acceptor groups, having the highest value when both the donor and acceptor groups are attached. Two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) and second harmonic generation (SHG) images of the bis-TEG amide attached dyes in lipid monolayer-coated droplets of water-in-oil reveal that the TPEF and SHG involve transition dipole moments in different orientations.

A π-extended bis-porphyrin bridged via a diketopyrrolopyrrole unit was prepared in 5 steps. This fully conjugated π-system displays strongly distorted linear absorption, while its two-photon absorption cross-section reaches 2500-3000 GM at 940 nm. LC-like behaviour, easy orientation and low viscosity are, according to XRD, POM and DSC measurements, due to formation of plastic rather than a liquid crystal.

The invention concerns pharmaceutically useful peptide derivatives of the formula (I), P-AA I -AA 2 -AA 3 -AA 4 -AA 5 -AA 6 -AA 7 -AA 8 -Q, in which P, AA 1, AA 2, AA 3 , AA 4, AA 5, AA 6, AA 7, AA 8, and Q have the various meanings defined herein and their pharmaceutically accentable salts, and pharmaceutical compositions containing them. The novel peptide derivatives are of value in treating MHC class II dependent T-cell mediated autoimmune or inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis. The invention further concerns processes for the manufacture of the novel peptide derivatives and the use of the compounds in medical treatment.

Monodisperse new surfactant molecules with a two-chain polyoxyethylene (EO) hydrophilic head and a perfluoroalkyl hydrophobic moiety linked together through an amide bond are synthesized by methods allowing large-scale production. Surface tension measurements (γ ~ 20 mN·m-1) show slow organization of the surfactant film at the water/air interface for longer fluorocarbon tail. Values of critical micellar concentrations and comparisons with monosubstituted amide surfactants are consistent with a high hydrophilicity of the amide function, a small influence of branching over hydrophilicity, and a hydrophobicity of each CF2 unit equivalent to 1.7 methylenes (in the analogous hydrogenated surfactants).
