Access to New Endoperoxide Derivatives by Electrochemical Oxidation of Substituted 3‐Azabicyclo[4.1.0]hept‐4‐enes

A series of substituted 3‐azabicyclo[4.1.0]hept‐4‐ene derivatives were prepared and analysed by cyclic voltammetry. Preparative aerobic electrochemical oxidation reactions were then carried out. Three original endoperoxides were isolated, characterised and subjected to antimalarial and cytotoxicity activity assays.     

Triphenylphosphine-m-sulfonate/carbon tetrabromide as an easily recoverable catalyst system for the efficient synthesis of xanthene and xanthenone derivatives under solvent-free conditions

A solid complex,readily prepared from commercially available sodium triphenylphosphine-m-sulfonate（TPPMS） and carbon tetrabromide,can be used as an easily recoverable and reusable catalyst system for one-pot condensation of 2-naphthol with aldehydes to construct 14-aryl（alkyl）-14H-dibenzo[a j]-xanthene derivatives and one-pot condensation of 2-naphthol with aldehydes and cyclic 1 3-dicarbonyl compounds to construct 12-aryl（alkyl）-8 9 10 12-tetrahydrobenzo[a]xanthen-11-one derivatives.

Assembly-enhanced triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion in the aggregation formed by Schiff-base Pt(Ⅱ) complex grafting-permethyl-β-CD and 9,10-diphenylanthracence dimer

Water-soluble triplet sensitizer with permethyl-β-cyclodextrin(PMCD) grafting on a Schiff-base Pt(Ⅱ)complex(Pt-2),in which PMCD unit serves as a host for binding the acceptors and the Schiff-base Pt(Ⅱ)complex serves as a triplet sensitizer,was synthesized to investigate the effect of supramolecular complexation and assembly on the triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion emission in water.9,10-Diphenylanthracence(DPA) carboxylate(A-1) and its dimer(A-2) in which two DPA carboxylate were covalently linked with an alkyl chain were synthesized as triplet acceptors which also play a role of guest molecules for PMCD.A-1 and A-2 showed high affinity with PMCD,and A-2 can readily aggregate in water and form micron sized assemblies due to the hydrophobic effect and π-π stacking of anthracene core in A-2.The efficiency of TTA-UC was demonstrated to be enhanced by a synergistic effect of host-guest complexation of Pt-2 with A-2 and the self-aggregation of the acceptor A-2,which facilitated the energy transfer and energy fusion among donor and acceptor.
