An atom efficient, green protocol for the synthesis of fifteen 2-amino-6-methyl-4-aryl-8-[(E)-arylmethylidene]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine-3-carbonitriles in quantitative yields from the reaction of 1-methyl-3,5-bis[(E)-arylmethylidene]-tetrahydro-4(1H)-pyridinones with malononitrile in presence of solid sodium ethoxide under solvent-free condition is described. The compounds were tested for their in vitro activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB), multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), and Mycobacterium smegmatis using agar dilution method. 2-Amino-4-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]-8-(E)-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylidene-6-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-pyrano[3,2-c]-pyridine-3-carbonitrile was found to be the most potent compound (MIC: 0.43microM) against MTB and MDR-TB, being 100 times more active than standard, isoniazid against MDR-TB.

A series of colorful binuclear Schiff bases derived from the different diamine bridges including 1,2- ethylenediamine (bis-Et-SA, bis-Et-4-NEt, bis-Et-5-NO, bis-Et-Naph), 1,2-phenylenediamine (bis-Ph-SA, bis-Ph-4-NEt, bis-Ph-5-NO, bis-Ph-Naph), dicyano-1,2-ethenediamine (bis-CN-SA, bis-CN-4-NEt, bis-CN-5-NO, bis-CN-Naph) have been designed and prepared. The optical properties of these binuclear Schiff base ligands were fully determined by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence emission spectroscopy, and time-dependent-density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. The inclusion of D-A systems and/or π-extended systems in these binuclear Schiff base ligands not only enables adjustable RGB light absorption and emission spectra (300~700 nm) but also yields high fluorescence quantum efficiencies of up to 0.

Oxazoles are important five-membered heterocycles that contain both nitrogen and oxygen atoms. Due to their wide range of biological activities, many oxazoles demonstrate potential for extensive application in various fields, including medicinal chemistry. Trifluoromethyl carbinol, an important pharmacophore, contains both trifluoromethyl and hydroxyl groups and is common in molecules with important biological activities.

Thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials with high photoluminescence quantum yields and a fast reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) are of the highest interest for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In the past decade, triaryl boranes with multiple resonance effect (MR) have captured significant attention. The efficiency of MR-TADF emitters strongly depends on small singlet-triplet energy gaps (ΔE), but also on large reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) rate constants (k).

Developing highly efficient and cost-competitive electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), which can be applied to hydrogen production by water splitting, is of great significance in the future of the zero-carbon economy. Here, by means of first-principles calculations, we have scrutinized the HER catalytic capacity of single-atom catalysts (SACs) by embedding transition-metal atoms in the C and Mo vacancies of a tetragonal MoC slab, where the transition-metal atoms refer to Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni and Cu. All the MoC-based SACs exhibit excellent electrical conductivity, which is favorable to charge transfer during HER.

Single-atom catalysts (SACs), known for their high atomic utilization efficiency, are highly attractive for electrochemical CO conversion. Nevertheless, it is struggling to use a single active site to overcome the linear scaling relationship among intermediates. Herein, an isolated diatomic Ni-Mn dual-sites catalyst was anchored on nitrogenated carbon, which exhibits remarkable electrocatalytic performance towards CO reduction.
