New nonperipherally and peripherally tetrasubstituted zinc(II) phthalocyanine complexes containing 1-benzylpiperidin-4-ol groups and their quaternized derivatives are reported in this work. These complexes were characterized successfully and their photophysical and photochemical properties were studied. These properties were determined in dimethylsulfoxide for all studied complexes and in water and water $+$ Triton X-100 solutions for ionic Zn(II) phthalocyanines. All studied zinc(II) phthalocyanine complexes generated high singlet oxygen, especially in dimethylsulfoxide, and these properties make them potential photosensitizers for use in the photodynamic therapy of cancer.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Chitosan passivated carbon nanodots (C-Dots$_{CHIT})$ were synthesized from expired molasses via a simple and green thermal synthesis procedure. As-synthesized C-Dots were nitrogen-doped (NC-Dots$_{CHIT})$ by posttreatment with liquid ammonia and used as nanoprobes for fluorometric detection of mercury ions (Hg(II)$_{aq.})$. Fluorescence response of NC-Dots$_{CHIT}$ in the presence of mercury was evaluated and compared with that of the polyethylene glycol passivated C-Dots$_{PEG}$. This sensing strategy using NC-Dots$_{CHIT}$ displayed a wide linear working range from 1.25 $\mu $g/mL to 43.54 $\mu $g/mL with a detection limit of 1.41 $\mu $g/mL. The fluorescence of C-Dots$_{PEG}$ did not show any significant change upon mercury addition. …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
6$H$-Benzo[$c$]chromen-6-ones serve as core structures of secondary metabolites and are of considerable pharmacological importance. Natural sources produce limited quantities, hence the need for synthetic procedures for 6$H$-benzo[$c$]chromen-6-ones, which are herein reviewed. The literature describes protocols such as the Suzuki coupling reactions for the synthesis of biaryl, which then undergoes lactonization, reactions of 3-formylcoumarin (chromenones) with 1,3-bis(silylenol ethers), radical mediated cyclization of arylbenzoates, metal or base catalyzed cyclization of phenyl-2-halobenzoates and 2-halobenzyloxyphenols, and benzoic acid coupling with benzoquinone using electrophilic metal-based catalyst. The efficient and simple procedures are those involving the reactions of Michael acceptor (chromenones and chalcones) with 1,3- and …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Three new asymmetrical photochromic diarylethenes containing a variable heteroaryl ring and a quinoline unit were synthesized and their structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.
