Lymphomas (cancers of the lymphatic system) account for 12% of malignant diseases worldwide. Burkitt’s lymphoma (BL) is a rare form of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in which the cancer starts in the immune B-cells. We report the synthesis and preliminary studies on the antiproliferative activity of a library of 9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethanoanthracene based compounds structurally related to the antidepressant drug maprotiline against BL cell lines MUTU-1 and DG- 75. Structural modifications were achieved by Diels-Alder reaction of the core 9-(2- nitrovinyl)anthracene with number of dienophiles including maleic anhydride, maleimides, acrylonitrile and benzyne. The antiproliferative activity of these compounds was evaluated in BL cell lines EBV? MUTU-1 and EBV+ DG-75 (chemoresistant). The most potent compounds 13j, 15, 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d and 19a displayed IC50 values in the range 0.17–0.38 μM against the BL cell line EBV? MUTU-1 and IC50 values in the range 0.45–0.78 μM against the chemoresistant BL cell line EBV+ DG- 75. Compounds 15, 16b and 16c demonstrated potent ROS dependent apoptotic effects on the BL cell lines which were superior to the control drug taxol and showed minimal cytotoxicity to peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The results suggest that this class of compounds merits further investigation as antiproliferative agents for BL.

A very low amount of organic dye (Alizarin red S) sensitized TiO2 and it was successfully used to catalyze cascade C(sp3)-H to C(sp2)-H bond formation/cyclization reactions under visible light irradiation. The modified TiO2 photocatalyst efficiently, for the first time, advanced [4+2] cyclization of N,N-dimethylanilines and maleimides to the corresponding tetrahydroquinolines in air atmosphere. The reaction proceeds through α-amino radicals without additional oxidant at ambient temperature to afford products in good to excellent yields.
Improvement of thermal properties of poly(vinyl chloride) using chemical blending assisted ultrasonic technique

The thermal stabilization of poly(vinyl chloride) through blending techniques has been studied. Poly(vinyl chloride) was blended with modified polymer (cellulose acetate-diallyl amine) in different compositions to improve the thermal stability of poly(vinyl chloride). The thermal stability and morphology of the blend films were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and thermogravimetry. The results revealed that the presence of modified cellulose acetate improved the thermal stability of poly(vinyl chloride). This was attributed to the thermal stable diallylamine moieties among the cellulose acetate chains. The addition of traces of maleimide derivatives to poly(vinyl chloride) prior to the blend process led to an extra thermal stability of the blend film as shown from the values of the initial decomposition temperature (To) measured by thermogravimetry.
