  • The study also discusses the photocatalytic performance of standalone diquat and methyl viologen and their interaction in forming an electron donor-acceptor complex.

Article Abstract

A series of new organic donor-π-acceptor dyes incorporating a diquat moiety as a novel electron-acceptor unit have been synthesized and characterized. The analytical data were supported by DFT calculations. These dyes were explored in the aerobic thiocyanation of indoles and pyrroles. Here they showed a high photocatalytic activity under visible light, giving isolated yields of up to 97 %. In addition, the photocatalytic activity of standalone diquat and methyl viologen through formation of an electron donor acceptor complex is presented.

In the present study, we successfully developed an efficient thiocyanation of carbonyl compounds by using low-toxicity and inexpensive ammonium thiocyanate as the thiocyanate source under visible light in air (O) at room temperature. This unified strategy is very facile for thiocyanation of various carbonyl compound derivatives (β-keto esters, β-keto amides, pyrazo-5-ones, isoxazol-5-ones, etc.).

Cisplatin-based chemotherapy is the standard treatment for bladder urothelial carcinoma (UC). Most patients experience chemoresistance, the primary cause of treatment failure, which leads to disease relapse. The underlying mechanism of chemoresistance involves reduced apoptosis.

During coke production, large volume of effluent is generated, which has a very complex chemical composition and contains several toxic and carcinogenic substances, mainly aromatic compounds, cyanide, thiocyanate and ammonium. The composition of these high-strength effluents is very diverse and depends on the quality of coals used and the operating and technological parameters of coke ovens. In general, after initial physicochemical treatment, biological purification steps are applied in activated sludge bioreactors.
