Inhibition of the mutagenicity of 2-nitrofluorene, 3-nitrofluoranthene and 1-nitropyrene by flavonoids, coumarins, quinones and other phenolic compou…
1997
When 56 flavonoids, 32 coumarins, five naphthoquinones, 12 anthraquinones and five structurally-related compounds were tested for their antimutagenic potencies with respect to mutagenicities induced by 2-nitrofluorene (2-NF), 3-nitrofluoranthene (3-NFA) and 1-nitropyrene (1-NP) in Salmonella typhimurium TA98 distinct structure-activity relationships were detected. First, the tetracyclic nitroarenes 3-NFA and 1-NP were in general more effectively antagonized by potent antimutagenic flavonoids and coumarins than the tricyclic 2-NF, while there were only minor differences with quinones. Secondly, antimutagenicity of natural compounds of plant origin correlated with the aglyconic nature 10 of a…
Regioselective substitution of 6,7-dichloroquinoline-5,8-dione: synthesis and X-ray crystal structure of 4a,10,11-triazabenzo[3,2-a]fluorene-5,6-dion…
2003
6,7-Dichloroquinoline-5,8-dione (1) was reacted with a number of 2-aminopyridine derivatives. Of the several possible products of this reaction, 4a,10,11-triazabenzo[3,2-a]fluorene-5,6-dione (6), produced by condensation and rearrangement, was obtained as the major product, and its structure was subsequently unambigously determined by X-ray crystallographic study. Ortho-quinones were produced via nucleophilic substitution at position C7, which was unexpected, considering that para-quinones were produced via C6 substitution in the reaction between compound 1 and ethyl acetoacetate in our previous work. Such unexpected nucleophilic substitution at C7 provides an effective, yet simple route, t…
Synthesis and photophysical properties of hyperbranhced polyfluorenes containing 2,4,6-tris(tiophen-2-yl)-1,3,5-triazine as the core
2011
A series of new hyperbranched polymers containing a 2,4,6-tris(thiophen-2-yl)-1,3,5-triazine core unit and polyfluorene chain arms have been synthesized via Suzuki coupling, and characterized by NMR, IR and GPC. All the polymers exhibit good thermal stability with a high decomposition temperature. By changing the 2,4,6-tris(thiophen-2-yl)-1,3,5-triazine/fluorene ratio the UV-vis absorption and emission spectra can be partially tuned. It has been found that the polymers containing a low ratio of 2,4,6-tris(thiophen-2-yl)-1,3,5-triazine units (P1-P3) have an absorption maximum around 385 nm, localized in the polyfluorene chain, and a shoulder around 425 nm ascribable to a charge transfer stat…
Modular Approach to 9-Monosubstituted Fluorene Derivatives Using Mo(V) Reagents.
2016
Oxidative coupling using molybdenum(V) reagents provides fast access to highly functionalized 9-monosubstituted fluorenes. This synthetic approach is highly modular, is high yielding, and tolerates a variety of labile moieties, e.g. amides or iodo groups. The established protocol leads to promising precursors for pharmacologically important analogues of melatonin.
Geometrical and conformational preferences of the 9‐fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl‐amino moiety
2004
Structural parameters, originating from x-ray crystallographic data, have been compiled for 13 derivatives of amino acids, peptides and related compounds, which contain a total of 14 Fmoc-NH- moieties. For these moieties, molecular geometries and conformations--described by the omegao, theta1, theta2 and theta3' torsion angles--were analysed and compared with the corresponding parameters for the Z-NH- and Boc-NH-moieties (290 and 553, respectively). To gain a deeper insight into the conformational features of the Fmoc-NH- moiety, ab initio free molecule calculations were performed for fully relaxed minima. Also the potential energy surface as a function of the torsion angles (theta3', theta…
