Investigation of the interaction between acridine orange and bovine serum albumin

The results from the measurement of the fluorescence spectrum showing the binding characteristics of acridine orange (AO) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) are reported. It was found that the equilibrium constant k=4848.64 l mol⁻¹, and the number of binding sites n=0.82. Based on the mechanism of the Forster energy transference, the transfer efficiency of energy and distance between the acceptor AO and BSA were found. The interaction between AO and BSA have been verified as consistent with the static quenching procedure and the quenching mechanism is related to the energy transfer.     

New efficient organocatalytic oxidation of benzylic compounds by molecular oxygen under mild conditions

Efficient aerobic oxidation of benzylic compounds has been achieved under no irradiation using a new organocatalytic system in the presence of acridine yellow and N-hydroxyphthalimide with assistance of a catalytic amount of molecular bromine. Various substrates, especially alkylaromatics, were effectively oxygenated to the corresponding carbonyl compounds with molecular oxygen as oxidant under mild conditions. For instance, indan was oxidized with 92% conversion and 79% selectivity for 1-indanone under 0.3 MPa of O₂ at 75 °C.

Base mediated synthesis of α-aminated aroyl/acetylnaphthalenes through [4+2] annulations

We have developed a base promoted simple, efficient and alternative approach for the synthesis of 4-amino-3-aroyl//heteroaroyl/acetyl-2-methylsulfanyl-naphthalene-1-carbonitriles by reaction of easily accessible 3,3-bis(methylthio)-1-aryl/heteroaryl/acetylprop-2-en-1-one and 2-cyanomethyl-benzonitrile. Reaction of 1-(2-halo/methoxy-phenyl)-3,3-bis(methylthio)prop-2-en-1-one and 2-cyanomethyl-benzonitrile under basic conditions also afforded 6-(methylthio)-7-oxo-7,12-dihydrobenzo[c]acridine-5-carbonitrile along with usual product. Structure of the synthesized product has been confirmed by single X-ray crystallography.     

Highly sensitive inhibitory kinetics fluorescence method for determination of arsenic

A new and highly sensitive inhibitory kinetic fluorescence method for the determination of arsenic (III) has been established based on its inhibitory effect on the oxidation reaction of Acridine red (ADR) by KBrO₃ in sulphuric acid medium. The reaction has been followed by measuring the enhancement of fluorescence at 550?nm. It relies on the linear relationship where the change in the fluorescence (ΔF) versus added As(III) amounts in the range of 0–0.450?µg?mL^?1 is plotted, under the optimum conditions. The sensitivity of the proposed method, i.e. the limit of detection, is 2.1?×?10^?2?ng?mL^?1. The method is featured with good accuracy and reproducibility for arsenic (III) determination. This method was successfully applied for the quantitative determination of arsenic (III) in food products samples, and the relative standard deviations and the recoveries were in ranges of 2.31–2.83% and 90.0–107.2%, respectively. A review of recently published catalytic or inhibiting kinetic methods for the determination of arsenic (III) has also been presented for comparison. The mechanism of reaction was studied.     

Intramolecular Aza‐Diels‐Alder Cyclization of a Dimerized Citral with Anilines Catalyzed by InCl3

A series of aza‐polycyles containing octahydroacridine core were prepared via an intramolecular aza‐Diels‐Alder reaction of a dimerized citral with various aromatic amines. This reaction is efficiently catalyzed by InCl₃ at ambient temperature to afford the corresponding cyclized products in moderate to good yields.     

Chemical Oxidative Degradation of Acridine Orange Dye in Aqueous Solution by Fenton's Reagent

Degradation of acridine orange (AO) in aqueous solution by Fenton's reagent (Fe²⁺ and H₂O₂) was investigated. The effects of different reaction parameters such as initial AO concentration, pH value of solution, ferrous concentration, hydrogen peroxide concentration, and the presence of chloride ion on the oxidative degradation of AO were investigated. Under optimum conditions, 2 mM H₂O₂, 0.4 mM Fe²⁺ and pH 3.0, the initial 0.2 mM AO solution was reduced by 95.8% within 10 min. The primary intermediates of the degradation reaction of AO were identified. The analytical results indicated that the N‐de‐methylation degradation of AO dye took place in a stepwise manner to yield mono‐, di‐, tri‐, and tetra‐N‐de‐methylated AO species generated during the Fenton process. The probable degradation pathways were proposed and discussed.
