Molecular engineering and synthesis of novel metal-free organic sensitizers with D-π-A-π-A architecture for DSSC applications: The effect of the anchoring group

Herein, we report the design and synthesis of two metal-free organic sensitizers (MR-5 & MR-6) with a D-π-A-π-A architecture based on a trimethoxy benzene donor core carrying two different withdrawing/anchoring groups including cyanoacetic acid and rhodan

An efficient approach for the synthesis of novel methyl sulfones in acetic acid medium and evaluation of antimicrobial activity

A series of nine methyl sulphones (3a-3i) starting from the aldehydes (1a-1i) were synthesized in two consecutive steps. In the first step, preparation of allyl alcohols (2a-2i) from their corresponding aldehydes by the reaction of sodium borohydride in methanol at room temperature is reported. Finally, methyl sulphones are synthesized by condensing sodium methyl sulfinates with allyl alcohols in the presence of BF3.Et2O in acetic acid medium at room temperature for about 2-3 h. The reaction conditions are simple, yields are high (85%-95%), and the products were obtained with good purity. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by their 1H, 13C NMR, and mass spectral analysis. All the title compounds were screened for antimicrobial activity. Among the compounds tested, the compound 3f has inhibited both Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria effectively and compound 3i has shown potent antifungal activity. These promising components may help to develop more potent drugs in the near future for the treatment of bacterial and fungal infections.

A Tripeptide Approach to the Solid-Phase Synthesis of Peptide Thioacids and N-Glycopeptides

A general and robust method for the incorporation of aspartates with a thioacid side chain into peptides has been developed. Pseudoproline tripeptides served as building blocks for the efficient fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) solid-phase synthesis of t
