The compounds were characterized by mass, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectroscopies. Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction studies were also carried out for 6c , 6d and 6e . Compounds 6c and 6d are isomorphous, with the 1,3,4‐oxadiazoline ring having an envelope conformation, where the disubstituted C atom is the flap. The packing is determined by C—H…O, C—H…π and I…π interactions. For 6e , the 1,3,4‐oxadiazoline ring is almost planar. In the packing, Cl…π interactions are observed, while the I atom is not involved in short interactions. Compounds 6d , 6e , 6f and 6h show good inhibiting abilities on the human cancer cell lines KB and Hep‐G2, with IC₅₀ values of 0.9–4.5 µM.

Structure and electrospray mass spectrometry studies on dithiacyclooctan-3-ol-containing palladium (II) complex of trans -[Pd(dtco-3-OH)_2](ClO_4)_2·2DMSO

The structure of trans-[Pd(dtco-3-OH)2] (ClO4)2·2DMSO, in which dtco-3-OH is dithiacyclooctan-3-ol and DMSO is dimethyl sulfoxide, was determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis. The crystal data: space group pi, a = 0.7077(2) nm, b = 1.0788(1) nm, c = 1.1111(1) nm, α=67.710(8)°, β = 73. 59(2)°, γ = 85. 39(2)°,R1 = 0 . 0368 and Rw = 0.0998. The palladium (II) is coordinated by four sulfur atoms with a regular square planar configuration. The Pd-S distances are 0.2314(1) and 0.2317(1) nm, respectively. Both dtco-3-OH ligands are in the boat-chair configuration and two hydroxyl groups are on the opposite sites of the PdS4 coordination plane and are towards Pd(II). The Pd-O distance is 0. 285 nm, indicating a weak interaction between them. A typical hydrogen bond between the hydroxyl group of dtco-3-OH ligand and DMSO was observed in the crystal structure. An aqueous solution prepared with the crystals of the complex was used for the investigation of electrospray mass spectrometry ( ESMS ). Besid

Optimization and Validation of a Fast Liquid Gradient for Determination of Prominent Flavan‐3‐ols and Flavonols in Fresh Vegetables

A fast high‐performance liquid chromatography method was used for analysis of prominent flavan‐3‐ols and flavonols in vegetables. Gradient elution with phosphoric acid‐acetonitrile mixtures and phosphoric acid‐methanol mixtures allowed fast and complete separation of the studied phenolic compounds within analysis times less than 10 min. The development of two elution gradients using methanol and acetonitrile as modifiers proved to be an excellent approach for the verification of the real polyphenolic composition in vegetables samples because the two optimized methods allowed the separation of the same number of compounds in the same elution order. Diode‐array detection was employed for the provisional identification of phenolic compounds that were not available as standards. We preferred methanol as a modifier because it was less toxic and cheaper than acetonitrile. Detection limits ranged between 0.12 and 0.59 μg mL^–1. High recoveries of phenolics from fresh vegetables were measured in all studied cases, independent of the phenolic structure, matrix, and vegetable in question. High levels of procyanidins between 150 and 450 mg kg^–1 were found in all studied vegetables. Quantification of quercetin and kaempferol glycosides was only possible in marrow and onion, respectively.     

Novel asymmetric 3,5‐bis(arylidene)piperidin‐4‐one derivatives: synthesis,crystal structures and cytotoxicity

3,5‐Bis(arylidene)piperidin‐4‐one derivatives (BAPs) display good antitumour activity because of their double α,β‐unsaturated ketone structural characteristics. Reported BAPs have generally been symmetric and asymmetric BAPs have been little documented. Three asymmetric BAPs, namely (5E)‐3‐(4‐tert‐butylbenzylidene)‐5‐(4‐fluorobenzylidene)‐1‐methylpiperidin‐4‐one, C₂₄H₂₆FNO, ( 5 ), (5E)‐3‐(4‐tert‐butylbenzylidene)‐5‐(3,5‐dimethoxybenzylidene)‐1‐methylpiperidin‐4‐one, C₂₆H₃₁NO₃, ( 6 ), and (5E)‐3‐{3‐[(E)‐(2,3‐dihydroxybenzylidene)amino]benzylidene}‐5‐(2‐fluorobenzylidene)‐1‐methylpiperidin‐4‐one, C₂₇H₂₃FN₂O₃, ( 12 ), were generated by Claisen–Schmidt condensation. They are characterized by NMR and FT–IR spectroscopies, and elemental analysis. Single‐crystal structure analysis reveals that the two arylidene rings on both sides of the BAP structures adopt an E stereochemistry of the olefinic double bonds and the compounds are E,E isomers. Molecules of ( 5 ) and ( 12 ) generate one‐dimensional chains through intermolecular hydrogen bonds, while compound ( 6 ) generates a two‐dimensional network through hydrogen bonds. Preliminary cytotoxicities toward human liver hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (HepG2), human acute mononuclear granulocyte leukaemia (THP‐1) and human normal hepatical cell line (LO2) were evaluated.     

DNA/BSA‐binding property and in vitro anticancer activity of a new dicopper(II) complex with N‐(2‐hydroxy‐5‐nitrophenyl)‐N′‐[3‐(diethylamino)propyl]oxamide as bridging ligand: Synthesis and crystal structure

A new oxamido‐bridged dicopper(II) complex formulated as [Cu₂(ndpox)(bpy)(CH₃OH)₂]‐ (ClO₄), where H₃ndpox is N‐(2‐hydroxy‐5‐nitrophenyl)‐N′‐[3‐(diethylamino)propyl]oxamide; and bpy represents 2,2′‐bipyridine, was synthesized and structurally characterized using X‐ray single‐crystal diffraction and other methods. In the molecule, the endo‐ and the exo‐copper(II) ions bridged by the cis ‐ndpox³⁻ ligand are in {N₃O₂} and {N₂O₃} square‐ pyramidal environments, respectively. There is a three‐dimensional hydrogen bonding network dominated by O‐H···O and C‐H···O interactions in the crystal. The reactivity toward DNA/protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) revealed that the complex could interact with herring sperm DNA (HS‐DNA) through the intercalation mode, and effectively quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA via a static process. Cytotoxicity studies suggest that the complex displays selective cancer cell antiproliferative activity. The present investigation confirmed that the combined effects of both electron‐withdrawing and hydrophobic groups on the bridging ligand in the dicopper(II) complex systems can increase DNA/BSA‐binding ability and in vitro anticancer activity.

The reaction of 5‐(1‐pyrrolyl)‐4‐methyl‐2‐phenylthieno[2, 3‐d]pyrimidine carbohydrazide 5 with CS₂ in the presence of pyridine afforded the 6‐(2, 3‐dihydro‐2‐mercapto‐1, 3, 4‐oxadiazol‐5‐yl)‐4‐methyl‐5‐(1‐pyrrolyl)‐2‐phenylthieno[2, 3‐d]pyrimidine 6 , which reacted with methyl iodide in the presence of sodium methoxide to yield the 6‐(2‐methylthio‐1, 3, 4‐oxadiazol‐5‐yl)‐4‐methyl‐5‐(1‐pyrrolyl)‐2‐phenyl‐thieno[2, 3‐d]pyrimidine 7. The 6‐(2‐substituted‐1, 3, 4‐oxadiazol‐5‐yl)‐2‐phenylthieno[2, 3‐d]pyrimidine derivatives 9, 11 and 13 were obtained by the condensation of 6‐(2‐methylthio‐1, 3, 4‐oxadiazol‐5‐yl)‐2‐phenylthieno[2, 3‐d]pyrimidine 7 with appropriate secondary amines. The structure of the new compounds was substantiated from their IR, UV‐vis spectroscopy, ¹H NMR, mass spectra, elemental analysis and X‐ray crystal analysis.     

One—dimesional Infinite Chain Organotin Compounds： Synthesis and structural Characterization of Triphenyltin Thiazole—2—carboxylate and Triphenyltin 3—Pyridinylcarboxylate

Triphenyitin thiazole-2-carboxylate(1) and triphenyltin 3-pyridinylcar boxylate(2) were synthesized by the reaction of sodium thiazole-2-carboxylate or sodium 3-pyridinylcarboxylate with the triphenyltin chloride and their crystal structures were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.In the structure of 1, the tin atom is five-coordinated in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal structure.Due to the presence of a close intermolecular Sn…S interaction distance of 0.3666nm,the structre can be described as a weakly-bridged on-dimensional chain compound.In the structure of 2,the tin atom is five-coordinated with bridging 3-pyridinylcarboxylate ligands N atom and resulting structure is one-dimensional chain compound.     

An EPR study of the radical addition to 3‐nitropentan‐2‐one as an archetype of α‐carbonylnitroalkanes

Carbon, silicon, germanium, tin and lead‐centered radicals were reacted with 3‐nitropentan‐2‐one and 3‐nitropentan‐2‐ol inside the cavity of an electron paramagnetic resonance spectrometer. In all cases, selective addition to the nitrogroup was observed with detection of the corresponding oxynitroxide radicals. In the case of the carbonyl substrate, alkyl acyl nitroxides were also detected because of α‐photocleavage. The oxynitroxides decayed with a first order kinetics via fragmentation of the carbon–nitrogen bond (denitration). Unexpectedly, the activation parameters were fairly similar to those previously reported for the corresponding tert‐butyl oxynitroxides and almost independent from the presence of a carbonyl or a hydroxyl group on the carbon adjacent to the one bearing the nitrogroup.
