Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon-Substituted Push-Pull Chromophores: An Investigationof Optoelectronic And Nonlinear Optical Properties Using Experimental And Theoreticalapproaches, Çağatay Dengi̇z

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A series of new push-pull chromophores were synthesized in moderate to very high yields (65%?97%) by treating TCNE and TCNQ with alkynes substituted by electron-rich diethylaniline and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Some of the chromophores exhibit strong intramolecular charge-transfer bands in the near-IR region with λmax values between 695 and 749 nm. With the help of experimental and theoretical analysis, it is concluded that the trend in λmax values is affected by PAH substituents sterically, not electronically. Steric constraints led to the increased dihedral angles, reducing conjugation efficiencies. The absorption properties of push-pull compounds have been investigated in solvents possessing different …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) applications enable light-controlled activation of drug candidates instead of their constitutive activities to prevent undesired side effects associated with their constant activities. A specific wavelength of light is utilized to enable electron mobility in the chemical structure, which results in differential activities that may alter cell viability and cellular functions. Canonical photodynamic therapy applications mostly focus on cytotoxicity-based antimicrobial and anticancer properties of the PDT agents. In this study, we focused on subtoxic concentrations of three different molecules containing polyoxyethylene group and examined their antiinflammatory activities on stimulated mammalian macrophages.

A novel four component modified Biginelli reaction for the synthesis of C-2 functionalized dihydropyrimidines has been established. The approach uses assembly of less explored acetyl acetone with aromatic aldehyde, thiourea, and dimethyl sulphate to construct a novel 5-acetyl 2-methylthio dihydropyrimidine system, which works as an efficient well-designed intermediate for generating C-2 modified Biginelli libraries with nitrogen nucleophiles. Phenyl hydrazine, semicarbazide, and aryl semicarbazides are successfully used as N-nucleophiles to generate C-2 functionalized dihydropyrimidine derivatives, which fulfil the demands of active pharmacophore. Time economy, step economy, and a single pot reaction with moderate to excellent yield are the major advantages of …

Wound dressings are one of the most rapidly expanding areas in medical textiles. In recent years, a large number of functional wound dressing has been developed. The aims of these products are to speed up the wound healing process and to provide maximum comfort for patients. Today, the multidisciplinary studies are required to improve further existed wound dressings. The results of such research studies are also promised new hopes for the Turkish textile industry weakened by the global competition. For this purpose, three different polymers were selected as silk fibroin (SF) / polycaprolactone (PCL) / polyethylene oxide (PEO). The productions …
