In this paper, a series of novel phenylenediamine-fluoroboron pyrrole fluorescent derivatives were prepared which have distinct responsiveness under different hydrogen ion concentration (pH) conditions. It is noticed that the products showed excellent fluorescence properties in different solvents, especially in tetrahydrofuran and dichloromethane, with the most prominent fluorescence intensity, while the fluorescence in methanol, acetonitrile, and dimethyl sulfoxide was weaker. Responsiveness under different hydrogen ion concentration conditions in aqueous solutions were also observed, where the fluorescence intensity is quenching when the pH is 4.

The development of biological fluorescent probes is of great significance to the field of cancer bio-imaging. However, most current probes within the bulky hydrophobic group have limited application in aqueous medium and restricted imaging under physiological conditions. Herein, we proposed two efficient molecules to study their physical properties and imaging work, and the absorption and fluorescence intensity were collected with varying ions attending in aqueous medium.

Fluorescent probes with outstanding physical and biological properties are superior for functional fluorescent dyes design. However, few studies pay attention to the stability of specific groups in fluorescent probes. The aldehyde group in the fluorescent probe is highly active but unstable under certain conditions.

The structural modification of quinolone derivatives has been a hot spot in recent years, especially the modification of the N-1 position, which is the part that this article focuses on. In this paper, series of synthesized quinoline quaternary ammonium salts with odd and even carbon number alkyl groups in N-1 position were used to explain the influence of the alkyl side chain on activity. With respect to all the recently synthesized twenty products, the biological activity results exhibited significant antitumor and antibacterial activity with obvious differences in the target alkyliodine substituted compounds and the antibacterial activities apparently had the prominent odd-carbon number predominance.

A novel of quarternary amine around a quinolinium iodide combined with even number alkyl chain were prepared in a several step in moderate yield starting from malonic ester and benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-amine. All of the active structure compounds were identified by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), such as H NMR, C NMR, infrared radiation (IR), high resolution mass spectrometry (HR-MS) and Carlo Erba Instruments CHNS-O EA1108 spectra analysis. With regard to the anticancer properties, the in vitro cytotoxicity against three human cancer cell lines (A-549, Hela and SGC-7901) were evaluated.

A series of novel N≡C-CH-B-F system BODIPY were designed and synthesized by introducing aldehyde and acetonitrile units which gave positive influence to spectroscopic and chemical properties of BODIPY derivatives. The effects of glycine (Gly) on the target products were studied via ultraviolet and visible spectrophotometry (UV-Vis) and photoluminescence (PL) under different conditions of the presence and absence of cations (K, Ca, Zn). It was showed that glycine has an intense quenching effect on the compounds in both the presence and absence of ions with a dramatic color change from notable red to light orange owing to the addition of Gly.

A series of novel quinoline and quinolinium iodide derivatives were designed and synthesized to discover potential anticancer and antibacterial agents. With regard to anticancer properties, in vitro cytotoxicities against three human cancer cell lines (A-549, HeLa and SGC-7901) were evaluated. The antibacterial properties against two strains, Escherichia coli (ATCC 29213) and Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 8739), along with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values were evaluated.

This study examined the characteristics of small molecular structure nano-graphene in a dynamic hierarchical self-assembly and found that graphene is rearranged under its own pressure during dynamic aggregation and water ripples are formed by the d-spacing. The composition and structure were studied using a range of material characterization techniques. No covalent bonds were observed between molecules, and the self-assembled driving force was the only intermolecular interaction: Van der Waals' force in the intra-layer and π-π interactions between layers.

(Z,Z')-1,1'-(4-ortho-Caboranyldimethyl)-bis(2-methoxyphenylethan-1-oxime) intermediate 3 was synthesized by a three-step reaction with a final treatment with base to give a new series of ortho-carboranyl biphenyloxime derivatives (4-8). Compounds 7 and 8 showed high solubility and the in vitro study results revealed high levels of accumulation in HeLa cells with higher cytotoxicity and boron uptake compared to L-boronphenylalanine.
