A general approach to synthesis of monosubstituted functional derivatives of 1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane (ortho-carborane) is proposed. Reactions of the triethylammonium salt of 1-mercapto-ortho-carborane (Et(3)NH)[1-S-1,2-C(2)B(10)H(11)] with ethyl omega-bromoalkyl carboxylates and omega-bromoalkylnitriles in ethanol result in the corresponding carboranyl esters and nitriles that in turn can be converted to carborane-based carboxylic acids 1-HOOC(CH(2))(n)S-closo-1,2-C(2)B(10)H(11) (n = 1-4). Mild deboronation of the closo-carborane cage with CsF in ethanol gives caesium salts of the corresponding nido-carboranes Cs[7-HOOC(CH(2))(n)S-nido-7,8-C(2)B(9)H(11)]. This approach is suitable for synthesis of compounds to be used in boron neutron capture therapy and radionuclide diagnostics of cancer.

The favorable redox properties of ferrocene have led to the extensive development of ferrocene-based systems for several electrochemical applications but have scarcely been explored for electrochromism. Here, we report the synthesis and electrochromic properties of novel π-conjugated ferrocene-dicyanovinylene systems (- and -). Monosubstituted (-) and disubstituted (-) compounds have been developed via Knoevenagel condensation of methyl-dicyanovinyl ferrocenes ( or ) with various aromatic aldehydes.

Cyanostilbene (CS)-related conjugated groups can be considered as dual functional groups of AIEgen and mesogen to construct photoluminescent liquid crystals, and it is essential to study the relationship between their molecular structures and compound properties systematically. In this paper, we designed and synthesized linear and bent-shaped CS derivatives containing ester- and amide-connecting groups and different substituted numbers of alkoxy tails. Their phase behaviors and photophysical properties were investigated in depth.

High ionic conductivity poly(ionic liquid)s (PILs) are of growing interest for their thermal and electrochemical stability, processability, and potential in safe, flexible all-solid-state electrochemical devices. While various approaches to enhance the ionic conductivity are reported, the influence of cation substituents is rarely addressed. Moreover, some of the asymmetric anions recently developed for high-conductivity ionic liquids were never tested in PILs.

Inhibitors of tubulin polymerization represent a promising therapeutic approach for the treatment of solid tumors. Molecules that bind to the colchicine site are of interest as they can function with a dual mechanism of action as both potent antiproliferative agents and tumor-selective vascular disrupting agents (VDAs). One such example is a 2-aryl-3-aroyl-indole molecule (OXi8006) from our laboratory that demonstrates potent inhibition of tubulin polymerization and strong antiproliferative activity (cytotoxicity) against a variety of human cancer cell lines.

The synthesis of 2-pyridinemethanamido borohydride complexes of yttrium and neodymium was achieved through the deprotonation of the protio-ligand 2-pyridinemethanamine CHRN-C(CH)R-NH(2,6-PrCH), denoted as PyAH (with PyAH1: R = R = H; PyAH2: R = CH, R = H; PyAH3: R = C(CH)N-(2,6-PrCH), R = CH), in the presence of trisborohydride RE(BH)(THF) (RE = Y and Nd) as a precursor and a base. The isolation of various molecular structures, nine of which were structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, was achieved and revealed to depend not only on (i) the nature of the 2-pyridinemethanamido ligand and (ii) the rare-earth element but also on (iii) the reaction conditions, notably the type of base used. These include seven mono-substituted species, eventually also comprising the cation derived from the base reagent, such as [(PyA1)Y(BH)][Mg(THF)] (1Y), [(PyA1)Nd(BH)Mg(PyA1)](THF) (1Nd), (PyA1)Nd(BH)(THF) (1'Nd), [(PyA1)Nd(THF)(BH)(μ-BH)] (1''Nd), [(PyA2)Nd(BH)][Mg(THF)] (3Nd), (PyA2)Nd(BH)(THF) (3'Nd) and (PyA3)Nd(BH) (4Nd), as well as two bis-substituted complexes (PyA1)Y(BH) (2Y) and (PyA1)Nd(BH) (2Nd).
