The full photoreduction of 1-nitro-2-R-9,10-anthraquinone (R = H: N1, methyl: N2) was studied in benzene, acetonitrile and acetonitrile-water mixtures in the presence of 2-propanol and triethylamine (TEA). The major photoproduct is the fluorescing 1-amino-2-R-AQ (A1, A2). The quantum yield of full reduction increases with the donor concentration, approaching ΦNH2 = 0.1. The intermediates involved are assigned on the basis of spectral and kinetic characteristics. The short-lived triplet state (≤20 ns) of N2 can be intercepted by 2-propanol or TEA, thereby forming the spectroscopically hidden donor radicals and the nitroAQ radicals which absorb at 400 and 540 nm; the latter band is due to the radical anion. The triplet state of N1 was not observed at room temperature, but the radical properties and decay in the nitrosoAQ are similar for N1 and N2. For donors in lower concentrations ΦNH2 is strongly increased in the presence of benzophenone, acetophenone or acetone, approaching 0.22. The results under direct and sensitized conditions are compared and major dependences and the effects of mixtures of acetonitrile with water are outlined.

The emodin anthraquinone derivatives are generally used in traditional Chinese medicine due to their various pharmacological activities. In the present study, a series of emodin anthraquinone derivatives have been designed and synthesized, among which 1,3-dihydroxy-6,8-dimethoxyanthracene-9,10-dione is a natural compound that has been synthesized for the very first time, and 1,3-dimethoxy-5,8-dimethylanthracene-9,10-dione is a compound that has never been reported earlier. Interestingly, while total seven of these compounds showed neuraminidase inhibitory activity in influenza virus with inhibition rate more than 50 %, specific four compounds exhibited significant inhibition of tumor cell proliferation. The further results demonstrate that 1,3-dimethoxy-5,8-dimethylanthracene-9,10-dione showed the best anticancer activity among all the synthesized compounds by inducing highest apoptosis rate to HCT116 cancer cells and arresting their G0/G1 cell cycle phase, through elevation of intracellular level of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Moreover, the binding of 1,3-dimethoxy-5,8-dimethylanthracene-9,10-dione with BSA protein has thoroughly been investigated. Altogether, this study suggests the neuraminidase inhibitory activity and antitumor potential of the new emodin anthraquinone derivatives.
