New synthesis,x‐ray structural determination,conformational analysis and anomeric effect study of 3,7‐di (3‐nitrophenyl)‐1,5‐dioxa‐3,7‐diazacyclooctane

3,7‐Di(3‐nitrophenyl)‐1,5‐dioxa‐3,7‐diazacyclooctane was prepared from 3‐nitroaniline and formaldehyde in acetonitrile.

Osteoblast Adhesion and Proliferation on Poly(3‐octylthiophene) Thin Films

In this study we assessed the suitability of semiconducting P3OT thin films (30 nm) to sustain attachment, spreading, and proliferation of MC3T3‐E1 osteoblasts. Cell area correlated with surface wettability: area was larger on the more hydrophilic surface (TCPS) and lower on the more hydrophobic surface (P3OT). Cells were rounder, characterized by higher circularity values, on TCPS and Si compared to P3OT. P3OT proliferation rate at 24 h fell twofold after 48 h, then recovered at 72 h to a value significantly higher than that on TCPS. Presoaking experiments showed no evidence of cytotoxic effects or leachants from P3OT. Overall, we conclude that P3OT is a viable substrate for osteoblast attachment and proliferation.

The synthesis of symmetrical (2‐indolyl)ethynes and reduced congeners via palladium‐catalyzed couplings of 2‐bromoindole precursors

Starting from a series of 2‐bromo‐1‐methylindole precursors ( 1b‐e ) activated in the 3‐position with aldehyde, ester, or amide functionality, two approaches have been developed toward the synthesis of 2,2′‐bis(indolyl)ethynes and reduced congeners via palladium(0)‐ or palladium(II)‐catalyzed couplings. The first approach utilized Sonogashira coupling of (trimethylsilyl)acetylene to introduce the two‐carbon linker followed by desilylation and further coupling with starting 2‐bromoindole. A second shorter and more efficient route engaged the starting 2‐bromoindole in a double Stille coupling with bis(tributylstannyl) acetylene or (E)‐1,2‐bis(tributylstannyl)ethylene to provide desired homodimers in one step. Subsequent transformations of dimeric intermediates led to target acids 7a‐c and derived amides 8a‐c and 9 . When tested against a panel of tyrosine kinases, each target compound was found to be inactive.
