In this paper, a straightforward and valid three-component Michael/cyclization reaction of (E)-1-methyl-3-(arylidene)piperidin-4-ones, 2-(sulfonyl)acetonitriles, and aromatic aldehydes was explored for the preparation of potentially biologically active 3-(sulfonyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridines under mild reaction conditions. More diverse 3-(sulfonyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine derivatives were constructed in satisfactory yields (up to 97%). The chemical structure of newly synthesized 3-(sulfonyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridines were identified with ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, and mass spectrometry analysis. The recommendable method features a simple and direct workup, easy access to initial materials, high atom utilization efficiency, high final product yields, and a wide range of substrate adaptability.

Bio-supported of Cu nanoparticles on the surface of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles mediated by Hibiscus sabdariffa extract: Evaluation of its catalytic activity for synthesis of pyrano[3,2-c]chromenes and study of its anti-colon cancer properties

In this work, we have described the biogenic synthesized copper nanoparticles being supported over plant phytochemicals modified magnetic Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles. Hibiscus sabdariffa extract was used as a green reducing agent and an excellent stabilizer of the synthesized NPs. The biomolecules are adorned as a protective shell over the core ferrite NPs. Physicochemical characterization of the as-synthesized Cu-Hibiscus@Fe₃O₄ nanocomposite was carried out through Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), electron microscopy (SEM and TEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), elemental mapping (WDX), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). The as-synthesized bio-nanomaterial was used as an excellent heterogeneous and magnetically retrievable catalyst in the three-component condensation of 4-hydroxycoumarin, malononitrile and various aldehydes in refluxing aqueous media. A broad range of aromatic aldehydes underwent the reaction to produce diverse pyrano[3,2-c]chromene derivatives in very good yields irrespective of the nature of bearing functional groups or their respective geometrical positions. Due to superparamagentic character, the material was easily magnetically decanted out and recycled for 8 successive times with preservation of its catalytic activity. After the chemical applications we also explored the material biologically in the resistance of human colon cancer and thereby studied the cytotoxicity over two standard cell lines, HT-29 and Caco-2. The conventional MTT assay was carried out over them which revealed an increase in % cell viability dose dependantly. In addition, DPPH radical scavenging test was performed for studying anti-oxidant activity, using BHT as the positive control. The IC50 values observed in the two cell lines were 490.12 μg/ml and 412.23 μg/ml respectively. The results validate the administration of Cu-Hibiscus@Fe₃O₄ as a competent colon protective drug in the clinical trial studies over human.

活性炭负载硫化锡纳米颗粒作为高效可重复使用Lewis酸催化剂催化三组分一锅法合成4H-吡喃[2,3-c]吡唑衍生物(英文)

Tin sulfide nanoparticles(SnS -NPs) were prepared in aqueous solution at room temperature on the surface of activated carbon(AC) and were investigated using field-emission scanning electron mi-croscopy(FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), X-ray diffraction, reflective ultravio-let-visible spectrophotometry, and spectrofluorimetry. Calculations based on the SEM and TEM images showed that the sizes of the SnS -NPs immobilized on the AC were 30–70 nm. The prepared nanocomposite was used as a heterogeneous Lewis acid catalyst for the three-components one-pot synthesis of 4H-pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole derivatives in ethanol at 80 ℃. The reactions were efficiently performed in the presence of the prepared catalyst in short reaction times, and gave the desired products in high yields. This catalyst can be easily recovered by simple filtration and recycled up to eight consecutive times without significant loss of its efficiency.     

DNA Intercalating Near-Infrared Luminescent Lanthanide Complexes Containing Dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine (dppz) Ligands: Synthesis,Crystal Structures,Stability, Luminescence Properties and CT-DNA Interaction

In order to create near-infrared (NIR) luminescent lanthanide complexes suitable for DNA-interaction, novel lanthanide dppz complexes with general formula [Ln(NO₃)₃(dppz)₂] (Ln = Nd³⁺, Er³⁺ and Yb³⁺; dppz = dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine) were synthesized, characterized and their luminescence properties were investigated. In addition, analogous compounds with other lanthanide ions (Ln = Ce³⁺, Pr³⁺, Sm³⁺, Eu³⁺, Tb³⁺, Dy³⁺, Ho³⁺, Tm³⁺, Lu³⁺) were prepared. All complexes were characterized by IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of the complexes (Ln = La³⁺, Ce³⁺, Pr³⁺, Nd³⁺, Eu³⁺, Er³⁺, Yb³⁺, Lu³⁺) showed that the lanthanide’s first coordination sphere can be described as a bicapped dodecahedron, made up of two bidentate dppz ligands and three bidentate-coordinating nitrate anions. Efficient energy transfer was observed from the dppz ligand to the lanthanide ion (Nd³⁺, Er³⁺ and Yb³⁺), while relatively high luminescence lifetimes were detected for these complexes. In their excitation spectra, the maximum of the strong broad band is located at around 385 nm and this wavelength was further used for excitation of the chosen complexes. In their emission spectra, the following characteristic NIR emission peaks were observed: for a) Nd³⁺: ⁴F_3/2 → ⁴I_9/2 (870.8 nm), ⁴F_3/2 → ⁴I_11/2 (1052.7 nm) and ⁴F_3/2 → ⁴I_13/2 (1334.5 nm); b) Er³⁺: ⁴I_13/2 → ⁴I_15/2 (1529.0 nm) c) Yb³⁺: ²F_5/2 → ²F_7/2 (977.6 nm). While its low triplet energy level is ideally suited for efficient sensitization of Nd³⁺ and Er³⁺, the dppz ligand is considered not favorable as a sensitizer for most of the visible emitting lanthanide ions, due to its low-lying triplet level, which is too low for the accepting levels of most visible emitting lanthanides. Furthermore, the DNA intercalation ability of the [Nd(NO₃)₃(dppz)₂] complex with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was confirmed using fluorescence spectroscopy.

The novel nanocatalyst was characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT‐IR), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE‐SEM), and thermal analysis (TGA‐DTG). The nanoparticles covered by (3‐oxo‐[1,2,4]triazolidin‐1‐yl)bis (butane‐1‐sulfonic acid) showed enhanced catalytic performance in the preparation of spiro[indeno[1,2‐b]quinoxaline derivatives in excellent yields. Moreover, this method showed several advantages such as mild conditions, high yields, easy work‐up, and being environmentally friendly. The catalyst can be easily separated from the reaction mixture by an external magnet, recycled, and reused several times without a noticeable decrease in catalytic activity.
