We report herein a feasible study concerning the design, synthesis, structure and in vitro antimycobacterial and anticancer activity of two new classes (containing four and five fused rings) of indolizine with phenanthroline skeleton. The preparation is straight and efficient, involving a Huisgen [3+2] dipolar cycloaddition of cycloimmonium ylides to alkynes or alkenes dipolarophiles. The cycloaddition reactions are highly stereo- or regioselective, according with the dipolarophiles nature. The structure of the new compounds was assigned unambiguously, X-ray analysis including. The primary antimycobacterial screening reveals that one of the thirteen tested compounds had a good activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv under aerobic conditions. The antiproliferative evaluation against a NCI 60 human tumor cell line panel, revealed that two indolizine with phenanthroline skeleton exhibit a selective and significant antitumor growth inhibitory activity against Breast Cancer (MCF7 and T-47D) and a slightly moderate activity against some forms of Leukemia, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, Renal Cancer and Breast Cancer (MDA-MB-468). The X-ray diffraction study of the indolizines with phenanthroline skeleton prove a flat coplanar structure which, corroborated with their anticancer activity, allow us to suggest that an interaction with DNA (via an intercalation mechanism) would be reasonable.

We present a new simple approach for electrochemical synthesis of semi-condensed ambipolar perinone polymers with phthaloperine (p1) or phenanthroline (p2) skeleton from available and cheap perimidine precursors. Polymerization of perimidine derivatives varies in efficiency depending on the monomer, but overall is highly efficient, especially when electropolymerization is used. Electrooxidation is well controllable and provides a certain characteristic share of new bonds in the structure of perimidine polymers: semi-ladder bis-perimidine unit, ladder bis-perimidine unit, and protonated bis-perimidine unit.

Herein, a palladium-catalyzed 1,1-aminoxylation of 3-butenoic acid and 2-alkynylanilines has been developed, achieving the installation of two distinct heteroatom motifs across an olefin skeleton. The strategy features a high step and atom economy and good functional group tolerance, which outlines an efficient approach for simultaneously building up γ-butylactone and indole skeletons. Notably, an external ligand, 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, has been used to succeed in this protocol to effectively suppress the production of indole byproducts.

Naphthalene diimides (NDI) are widely serving as the skeleton to construct electron transport materials (ETMs) for optoelectronic devices. However, most of the reported NDI-based ETMs suffer from poor interfaces with the perovskite which deteriorates the carrier extraction and device stability. Here, a representative design concept for editing the peripheral groups of NDI molecules to achieve multifunctional properties is introduced.

Porous iron-nitrogen-doped carbons (FeNC) offer a great platform for construction of cathodic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts in fuel cells. However, challenges still remain regarding with the collapse of carbon-skeleton during pyrolysis, uneven distribution of active sites and aggregation of metal atoms. In this work, we synthesized Fe, N co-doped conjugated microporous polymer (FeN-CMP) through a facile bottom-up strategy using 1,3,5-triethynylbenzene and iron-chelated 3,8-dibromo-1,10-phenanthroline as monomers, ensuring the uniform coordination of N with Fe element in network.

Selective actinide coordination (from lanthanides) is critical for both nuclear waste management and sustainable development of nuclear power. Hydrophilic ligands used as masking agents to withhold actinides in the aqueous phase are currently highly pursued, while synthetic accessibility, water solubility, acid resistance, and extraction capability are the remaining problems. Most reported hydrophilic ligands are only effective at low acidity.
