Article Abstract

The chalcone derivatives with hydroxy group () have been examined using low-temperature fluorescence spectroscopy. The study aimed to freeze the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) motion in order to reveal the potential hidden transition(s) that are difficult to observe at room temperature. Although chalcone revealed one emission peak at ~667 nm at room temperature, it exhibited two emission peaks (λ = 580 and 636 nm) in EtOH at liquid N temperatures (77 K). With the aid of model compound with methoxy group and aluminum complex -Al, attempts were made to assign these emission peaks. The results point towards the possibility of the coexistence of ICT and excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) in the chalcone derivatives with extended conjugation.

Synthesis and Optical Properties of Unsymmetric Aromatically π-Extended BODIPY.

J Org Chem

School of Chemical and Biopharmaceutical Sciences, Technological University Dublin, City Campus, Grangegorman, Dublin D07 EWV4, Ireland.

A series of unsymmetrically substituted BODIPY dyes featuring fused benzo- or naphtho-fragments on one pyrrolic unit were synthesized from the corresponding pyrrolic precursors. The synthetic route was optimized using a modular approach based on the condensation of formylpyrroles with alkylpyrroles, enabling the identification of precursor combinations that minimize byproduct formation and improve preparative yields. The resulting benzo- and naphtho-fused BODIPYs display intense fluorescence in the red region, with emission maxima spanning 590-680 nm and fluorescence quantum yields ranging from 0.

ConspectusMolecular photochemistry, by harnessing the excited states of organic molecules, provides a platform fundamentally distinct from thermochemistry for generating reactive open-shell or spin-active species under mild conditions. Among its diverse applications, the resurgence of the Minisci-type reaction, a transformation historically reliant on thermally initiated radical conditions, has been fueled by modern photochemical strategies with improved efficiency and selectivity. Consequently, the photochemical Minisci-type reaction ranks among the most enabling methods for C()-H functionalizations of heteroarenes, which are of particular significance in medicinal chemistry for the rapid diversification of bioactive scaffolds.

TROP2, a transmembrane glycoprotein, is overexpressed and plays pivotal roles in diverse epithelial tumors. The differential expression of TROP2 between cancer and normal tissues offers distinct advantages in developing drugs targeting it. Thus, TROP2-targeted antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), including datopotamab deruxtecan and sacituzumab govitecan, present considerable efficacy and safety in multiple cancers.
