- The effect of hydrogen bonding and azomethine group orientation on liquid crystal properties in benzylidene aniline compounds
-
This study examines the effects of substituents and hydrogen bonding, orientations of imine linkage on the behavior of benzylidene aniline compounds as liquid crystals (LC). Compounds 4-carboxy benzylidene-4-X-aniline (X = H, F, Cl, Br, CH3, OCH3) 1a-6a were synthesized by the reaction of aniline and its substituted derivatives with 4-formylbenzoic acid. Compounds 4-X-benzylidene-4-carboxy aniline (X = H, F, Cl, Br, CH3, OCH3) 1b-6b were synthesized by the reaction of benzaldehyde and its substituted derivatives with 4-aminobenzoic acid using absolute ethanol as the solvent. Synthesized compounds were characterized by FT IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy, liquid crystal properties were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarizing optical microscopy (POM) techniques. Based on the mesomorphic properties, it was proven that the compounds 2b-4b are dimorphic exhibiting a smectic and nematic phase, compounds 5b, 6b are monomorphic exhibiting a nematic phase, while compounds 1a-6a and 1b have not shown any mesophase. For compounds 1a-6a hydrogen bonding and reversing imine linkage (in comparison with compounds 1b-6b) caused the absence of their mesomorphic properties.

- Triphenylstannyl((arylimino)methyl)benzoates with selective potency that induce G1 and G2/M cell cycle arrest and trigger apoptosis: Via ROS in human cervical cancer cells
-
Metal complexes with organelle specificity and potent but selective cytotoxicity are highly desirable. A novel series of triphenylstannyl 4-((arylimino)methyl)benzoates (2-8) were obtained by the reactions of triphenylstannyl 4-formylbenzoate [Ph3Sn(L1)] 1 with primary aromatic amines. Two representative compounds (10, 11) were also synthesized by reacting aqua-triphenylstannyl 2-formylbenzoate [Ph3Sn(L9)(H2O)] (9) with aniline and p-fluoroaniline, respectively. These compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR and 1H, 13C and 119Sn NMR spectroscopy, as well as single-crystal X-ray diffraction for compounds 5, 7-11 and three pro-ligands. The in vitro cytotoxic activities of 1-11 were assessed using the MTT tetrazolium dye assay against HeLa (human cervical) and MDA-MB-231 (breast) cancer cells, with IC50 values revealing high activity. Compared to cisplatin, compounds 1-11 exhibited enhanced cytotoxic efficacy, indicating their potential as potent anticancer agents. Among these, 1 and 5 demonstrated maximum inhibition in HeLa cells, with negligible effect on normal human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells. The combined results of the DCFH-DA dye and Hoechst 33342/PI nuclear staining assays, along with flow cytometry analysis, show that they possess a dual mode of action: They induced apoptotic cell death, attributable to the tin-assisted generation of reactive oxygen species. Cell cycle analyses indicated that compounds 1 and 5 exhibit cell growth inhibition and may cause turbulences in the G1 and G2/M phases.

- Adsorption-driven self-sorting of dynamic imine libraries
-
Differences in adsorption among the components of complex mixtures play a role in separations, surface-based sensing, and heterogeneous catalysis, and have been implicated in theories of the origin of life. Herein, we consider mixtures of imines and we show that if such complex mixtures are also dynamic - that is, if their components equilibrate among themselves - then they can dramatically simplify in composition during the course of column chromatography. As they travel down the column, imines continuously trade their aldehyde and amine constituents, favoring the formation of molecules with extremes of polarity at the expense of species with intermediate polarities. Iterative application of this principle leads to simplification of imine libraries containing up to 16 members into 4 major products.
