A new organic stilbazolium derivative crystal 2-[2-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxy-phenyl)-vinyl]-1-methyl-pyridinium naphthalene-2-sulfonate dehydrate (C25H23NO5S·2H2O) (VSNS) was synthesized successfully.
A series of novel indan-2-one and dibenzylidenepiperidin-4-one compounds were synthesized and screened for anticancer activities. The compounds are symmetrical and they have conjugated double bonds. They closely resemble the curcumin analogs which are found to possess anticancer properties. The structure of the compounds was confirmed by single crystal study and wherever the compound is a powder, the structures were confirmed by spectral data (IR, NMR, and Mass).
magnified image The one‐pot reaction of 2‐tetralone with ammonium acetate and substituted benzaldehydes affords in a good yield of 5‐aryl‐7,8,13,14‐tetrahydrodibenzo[a,i]phenanthridine or 2,4‐diaryl‐6,7‐benzo‐3‐azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan‐9‐one. The course of the reaction seems to be dictated by the position of the substituents present on the benzaldehyde ring. J. Heterocyclic Chem., (2009).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
