AbstractA new method for synthesis of perylene-3,4-dicarboximides (PDCIs) is reported. Modified from a literature reported synthetic method, microwave assisted heating was used to perform the reaction, which not only shortened the original reaction time, from 18 hours to 30 min, but also increased the corresponding reaction yield. A variety of PDCI derivatives were synthesized in order to correlate the influence of substituents on the reaction outcome. Moreover, the photophysical and electrochemical properties of PDCIs are characterized and reported.

CDI combined with CH3SO3H was found to be highly effective for the cyclization of 2-aminothiophenol derivatives with carboxylic acids under MW condition. Fourteen benzothiazole derivatives were synthesized in good yield and their structures were characterized by 1H-NMR, 13CNMR, IR and mass spectrometry. This simple, rapid synthetic method is believed to provide a useful process for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzothiazole compounds.

ABSTRACTNanomedicine is fostering significant advances in the development of platforms for early detection and treatment of diseases. Nanoparticles (NPs) like quantum dots (QDs) exhibit size-dependent optical properties for light-driven technologies, which might become important in bio-imaging, sensing and photo-dynamic therapy (PDT) applications. The present research addresses the synthesis of water-stable Cd-based QDs via a Microwave-Assisted synthesis approach using cadmium sulfate salt, and thioglycolic acid as Cd- and S-precursors, respectively. Selenide ions were available by reductive leaching of metallic Selenium in Sodium bisulfite solution. The size control and the tunability of the optical properties were achieved by a suitable control of the reaction temperature (in the 140°C- 190°C range) and reaction time (10 minutes-40 minutes). X-ray diffraction analyses suggested the development of a CdSe,S face cubic centered structure; the broadening of the diffraction peaks indicated the presence of very small nanocrystals in the samples. The average crystallite size was estimated at 5.50 nm ± 1.17nm and 3.72 nm ± 0.04 nm, for nanoparticles synthesized at 180°C after 40 minutes or 10 minutes of reaction, respectively. HRTEM images confirmed the crystalline nature and the small size of the synthesized nanocrystals. In turn, the exciton was red-shifted from 461nm to 549 nm when the reaction temperature was prolonged from 140°C to 190 °C, suggesting the crystal growth. The corresponding band gap values were approximately 2.2 eV, confirming the quantum confinement effect (bulk value 1.74eV). This red shift was also evidenced in PL measurements where the main emission peak was shifted from 507 nm to 564 nm when the samples were excited at 420 nm. A narrow size-tunable emission also was supported by the full width at half maximum (∼ 45 nm) for the synthesized nanocrystals. The reactive oxygen species generation capability of as-synthesized QDs was also investigated. The correlation between the particle size and the generation of (ROS) by the degradation of methylene blue was evident with a reduction of MB concentration from 10μM to 7.5μM and 6.7μM after 15 minutes of UV irradiation for reaction time of 10 min. and 40 min. respectively. No additional degradation was noticed after 60 minutes of irradiation.

An efficient and eco-friendly synthesis of 1,5-benzothiazepines has been developed by the reaction of various 2-propen-1-ones with 2-aminothiophenol using microwave irradiation in greener reaction medium, glycerol. The clean reaction conditions, shorter reaction time, high yields and non-toxic, biodegradable reaction medium manufactured from renewable sources are unique features of this method.

A rapid and efficient one-pot protocol has been developed for the synthesis of s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazine and s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole nanoarchitectonics through the reaction of s-triazoles with ketones and nitriles in acetic acid containing a catalytic amount of sulfuric acid under microwave irradiation in excellent yields. With this catalytic reaction, the cheap sulfuric acid as well as other acids were examined as catalysts and the highly toxic and irritating haloketones and halonitriles were avoided to form. The effects of microwave power, temperature, time, solvent and catalyst were examined. This method achieved a better performance; e.g., higher yields, shorter reaction time and easier work-up as compared to other conventional methods. Therefore, the proposed method will be readily applicable to the synthesis of biologically important compounds containing s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazine and s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole framework.

Substituted iron and cobalt phthalocyanines are easily prepared by microwave irradiation of the starting materials under solvent free condition, which reduced reaction time considerably. The synthesized metallophthalocyanines (octachloro-, tetranitro-, tetracarboxy- or polyphthalocyanine) are used as epoxidation catalysts of cyclooctene in homogeneous and heterogeneous conditions by iodosylbenzene as an oxidant. Their catalytic activities have shown that the electron withdrawing groups on the phthalocyanine ring have a very small effect on stability of the catalyst during the reactions.
