The paper describes the synthesis of three new copolymers based on styrene and α-methylstyrene derivatives by radical emulsion copolymerization in an aqueous medium in the presence of an ammonium persulfate initiator and potassium stearate emulsifier. In early study, it was found that copolymers based on methoxy derivatives of styrene have the advanced dielectric properties, as compared to polystyrene and a copolymer of styrene and α-methylstyrene. In addition, the latest scientific literature provides data on the biological activity of styrene copolymers. Thus, the synthesis and study of the properties of new copolymers based on styrene and α-methylstyrene creates a prospect for establishing materials with a unique set of properties differing from their previously studied analogues. The structure of synthesized copolymers is confirmed by IR spectroscopy. Along with this, the paper provides the curves of thermogravimetric analysis, data on dielectric constant and tangent of a dielectric loss angle. A hemolytic effect of copolymers is determined, which indicates biocompatibility and further research perspectives towards their suitability for medical use. A copolymer of sodium 4-styrenesulfonate and α-methylstyrene (the molar ratio of starting monomers is 7:3) is soluble in an aqueous medium, which makes it of higher priority in terms of further study into biological activity.

The effects of dopant 5-sulfosalicylic acid on the conductivity of polypyrrole were investigated. Being nonhygroscopic, ammonium persulfate was used as the oxidant. Under the condition of fixed molar ratio of oxidant-to-monomer (0.375:1.00), a dozen of polypyrrole samples were made from chemical polymerizing the monomer pyrrole in aqueous medium by varying the dopant-to-monomer molar ratio. It was found that the dopant affected the conductivity and particle size of the synthesized polypyrrole. A maximum value for electrical conductivity of 5575 S/m was achieved when the molar ratio of dopant: oxidant: monomer is 2.25:0.375:1.00.

As evidenced by spectrophotometry and radiochromatography, derivatives of 2-furylethylene are able to react with thiols in an aqueous medium. The NMR analysis of reaction mixture showed that the site attacked by the thiol is the more electrophilic C(1) atom of the exocyclic double bond of the 2-furylethylenes under study. The ability to react with SH groups is of extraordinary importance particularly in connection with the study of mechanism of biological activity of 2-furylethylenes.

Heterocyclic compounds are well known for their different biological activity. The heterocyclic analogs are the building blocks for synthesis of the pharmaceutical active compounds in the organic chemistry. These derivatives show various type of biological activity like anticancer, antiinflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-convulsant, anti-malarial, anti-hypertensive, etc. From the last decade research showed that the quinoline analogs plays a vital role in the development of newer medicinal active compounds for treating various type of disease. Quinoline reported for their antiviral, anticancer, anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory activity. This review will summarize the various synthetic approaches for synthesis of quinoline derivatives and to check their biological activity. Derivatives of quinoline moiety plays very important role in the development of various types of newer drugs and it can be used as lead compounds for future investigation in the field of drug discovery process.

Alkylation of 7-ethyl-4-(4-ethylphenyl)-2,3-dibromo-1-naphthol (I) with ethyl esters of ω-bromoalkanoic acids XX-XXIII in a non-aqueous medium gave the 1-substitution derivatives II, IV, VI and VIII which were hydrolyzed to the acids III, V, VII and IX. The acid III was used for syntheses of the esters X-XIII and amides XIV-XVIII. Compounds II-XVIII exhibited moderate antineoplastic effects in animals with transplanted tumours; best results were observed with the compound II.

A number of N-nitroso-2-chloroethyl-carbamoyl (Q(NO)) derivatives of α-melanotropin fragments have been synthesized and their effect on the frog skin melanocytes studied. Peptides substituted in this way possess the biological activity of the parent compounds, indicating that they preserved their receptor recognizing ability. These compounds can therefore serve as affinity labels. Some of these derivatives, related to the C-terminal sequence of α-melanotropin show prolonged darkening reaction, which does not influence the subsequent reaction of melanocytes with α-melanotropin. The Q(NO)-derivative of a fragment derived from the classical active site of the hormone shows, however, inhibition of the effect of α-melanotropin. It can be concluded that the latter peptide acts through the melanotropin receptor, while others, related to the C-terminal sequence of the hormone through another mechanism.

The development of potential magnetic materials in metal-doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons has been a research hotspot in recent years. Here we have successfully synthesized stable potassium-doped 2,3-dimethylnaphthalene samples. The combination of first-principles calculations and XRD results identifies that doping of potassium into 2,3-dimethylnaphthalene forms a monoclinic structure with a molar ratio of 1:2 between potassium and molecule. The red shifts in the Raman spectra indicate that potassium 4s electrons are transferred to the organic molecules. The magnetic measurements show that the doped materials exhibit a temperature-independent magnetization in the temperature region of 1.8–300 K, which is consistent with the Pauli paramagnetic behavior. This is distinct from the diamagnetism of pristine material. Compared to the previous focus on benzene ring structure, our study of aromatic hydrocarbon derivatives of benzene ring opens a new route for the development of this field.
