The synthesis of a calix[4]arene derivative immobilised in 1,3- alternate conformation by alkylation at the lower rim and bearing four catechoylamide units at the upper rim was achieved. The chelating coordination sites were by construction oriented, in a

Functional organic dyes play a key role in many fields, namely in biotechnology and medical diagnosis. Herein, we report two novel 2,3-and 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl substituted rosamines (3 and 4, respectively) that were successfully synthesized through a microwave-assisted protocol. The best reaction yields were obtained for rosamine 4, which also showed the most interesting photophysical properties, specially toward biogenic amines (BAs). Several amines including n-and t-butylamine, cadaverine, and putrescine cause spectral changes of 4, in UV–Vis and fluorescence spectra, which are indicative of their potential application as an effective tool to detect amines in acetonitrile solutions. In the gas phase, the probe response is more expressive for spermine and putrescine. Additionally, we found that methanolic solutions of rosamine 4 and n-butylamine undergo a pink to yellow color change over time, which has been attributed to the formation of a new compound. The latter was isolated and identified as 5 (9?aminopyronin), whose solutions exhibit a remarkable increase in fluorescence intensity together with a shift toward more energetic wavelengths. Other 9-aminopyronins 6a, 6b, 7a, and 7b were obtained from methanolic solutions of 4 with putrescine and cadaverine, demonstrating the potential of this new xanthene entity to react with primary amines.

A series of novel 2-substituted quinoline-4-carboxylic acids was synthesized by Doebner reaction starting from freely available protocatechuic aldehyde and vanillin precursors. Human dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (hDHODH) was recognised as a clear molecular target for these heterocycles. All compounds were also tested for their antiproliferative potential against three cancer cells (MCF-7, A549, A375) and one normal cell line (HaCaT) to evaluate the selective cytotoxicity. Quinoline derivatives 3f and 3g were identified as potent hDHODH inhibitors while 3k and 3l demonstrated high cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 and A375 cells and good selectivity. In addition, the logD7.4 values obtained by the experimental method were found to be in the range from ?1.15 to 1.69. The chemical structures of all compounds were confirmed by IR, NMR and elemental analysis. The compounds pharmacology on the molecular level was revealed by means of molecular docking, highlighting the structural differences that distinguish highly active from medium and low active hDHODH inhibitors.
