We studied the photoproducts of 1-(n-phenanthryl)-2-(m-phenanthryl)ethenes (nEm; n, m = 1, 3 and 9) for understanding photocyclization patterns based on NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structures of the photoproducts were analyzed by X-ray crystallography, and the photophysical features of the photocyclized molecules were investigated based on emission and transient absorption measurements. Phenanthrene derivatives substituted at the 1- and 3-positions were prepared for synthesizing nEm by photocyclization of stilbene derivatives. We obtained four types of primary photoproducts (n@m) from the corresponding nEm. Two of them were found to have racemic molecular structures in the single crystal determined by X-ray crystallography. Besides the primary photoproducts, two types of secondary photoproducts (n@mPP) were isolated. Fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes of the obtained photoproducts were determined in solution whereas the definite fluorescence quantum yields were obtained in the powder. Observation of the triplet-triplet absorption spectra in solution by laser photolysis techniques showed that intersystem crossing to the triplet state competes with the fluorescence process.

An extension of the Pomeranz-Fritsch procedure has been evaluated as a route to some polycyclic azaarenes. Aromatic aldehydes were treated with the dimethyl and diethyl acetals of 2-aminoethanal, the resulting imines reduced to amines which were tosylated and the resulting sulfonamides treated under a range of acidic conditions. The two naphthaldehydes led to benzo[f]isoquinoline and benzo[h]isoquinoline in overall yields of 13% and 36%. Phenanthrene-9- carbaldehyde and phenanthrene-3-carbaldehyde gave dibenzo[f,h]isoquinoline and naphtho[2,1-g]isoquinoline, respectively, as the major tetracyclic products. No pentacyclic product was obtained from a similar sequence starting from pyrene-1-carbaldehyde. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.

Intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation of 1-(hydroxymethyl)helicenes 1-R and 15-Me leads to 10,11-methano-bridged dibenzophenanthrenes 2-R and 16-Me, respectively.These molecules are shaped like the back of a turtle as shown by X-ray crystal structure analysis.Their nonplanarity, however, is not rigid, as revealed by the temperature dependence of their (1)H-NMR spectra.With inversion barriers of about 62.4 and 67.1 kJ mol1- 2-H and 2-Me are surprisingly flexible.A remarkable diastereoselectivity is observed in the addition of methyl- and phenylmagnesium bromide to 1-formylhelicenes 14-Me leading to secondary alcohols 15a,b-Me, which cyclize to bridged hydrocarbons 16a,b-Me, in which the substituents R = Me, Ph are in the thermodynamically less favorable endo-position.Upon heating, endo-16a,b-Me isomerize to exo-16a,b-Me irreversibly.

2-[(arylmethyl)amino]-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol DNA intercalators. An examination of the effects of aromatic ring variation on antitumor activity and DNA binding

The effects of variation of aromatic ring size, shape, and side-chain position on antitumor activity and DNA binding in a series of carbocyclic 2-[(arylmethyl)amino]-2-methyl-1,3-propanediols (AMAPs) were examined. In general, the interaction of AMAPs wit
