Synthesis of Novel 3,6-Dithienyl Diketopyrrolopyrrole Dyes by Direct C?H Arylation.

ABSTRACT: Direct C?H arylation coupling is potentially a more economical and sustainable process than conventional cross-coupling. However, this method has found limited application in the synthesis of organic dyes for dye?sensitized solar cells. Although direct C?H arylation is not an universal solution to any cross-coupling reactions, it efficiently complements conventional sp2?sp2 bond formation and can provide shorter and more efficient routes to diketopyrrolopyrrole dyes. Here, we have applied palladium catalyzed direct C?H arylation in the synthesis of five new 3,6-dithienyl diketopyrrolopyrrole dyes. All prepared sensitizers display broad absorption from 350 nm up to 800 nm with high molar extinction coefficients. The dye?sensitized solar cells based on these dyes exhibit a power conversion efficiency in the range of 2.9 to 3.4%.

Novel Diketopyrrolopyrrole-Based ?-Conjugated Molecules Synthesized Via One-Pot Direct Arylation Reaction.

Project description:Diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) is an important type of ?-conjugated building block for high-performance organic electronic materials. DPP-based conjugated materials are usually synthesized via Suzuki, Stille, or Negishi cross-coupling reactions, which require organometallic precursors. In this paper, a series of novel phenyl-cored DPP molecules, including five meta-phenyl-cored molecules and four para-phenyl-cored molecules, have been synthesized in moderate to good yields, in a facile manner, through the Pd-catalyzed direct arylation of C-H bonds, and their optoelectrical properties have been investigated in detail. All new molecules have been fully characterized by NMR, MALDI-TOF MS, elemental analysis, UV-visible spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry. This synthetic strategy has evident advantages of atom- and step-economy and low cost, compared with traditional cross-coupling reactions.

A Convenient Synthesis of Diketopyrrolopyrrole Dyes.

Project description:Diketopyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrroles (DPP) are high-performance organic optoelectronic materials. They have applications in solar cells, fluorescent probes, bioimaging, photodynamic/photothermal therapy, and in many other areas. This article reports a convenient two-step synthesis of various DPP dyes from Pigment Red 254, an inexpensive commercial pigment. The synthesis includes a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of a bis(4-chlorophenyl)DPP derivative with aryl and hetaryl boronic acids under mild reaction conditions. The new dyes show large Stokes shifts and high fluorescence quantum yields, important features for their potential use in technical and biological applications.

Direct (Hetero)Arylation Polymerization of a Spirobifluorene and a Dithienyl-Diketopyrrolopyrrole Derivative: New Donor Polymers for Organic Solar Cells.

Project description:The synthesis and preliminary evaluation as donor material for organic photovoltaics of the poly(diketopyrrolopyrrole-spirobifluorene) (PDPPSBF) is reported herein. Prepared via homogeneous and heterogeneous direct (hetero)arylation polymerization (DHAP), through the use of different catalytic systems, conjugated polymers with comparable molecular weights were obtained. The polymers exhibited strong optical absorption out to 700 nm as thin-films and had appropriate electronic energy levels for use as a donor with PC70BM. Bulk heterojunction solar cells were fabricated giving power conversion efficiencies above 4%. These results reveal the potential of such polymers prepared in only three steps from affordable and commercially available starting materials.

Synthesis of C-Homoaporphines via Microwave-Assisted Direct Arylation.

Project description:Representatives of the C-homoaporphine class of alkaloids have shown interesting biological activities. To date the synthesis of these molecules has never been attempted via a direct arylation strategy. We report herein the first Pd-mediated intramolecular direct arylation in the synthesis of C-homoaporphines via the use of microwaves. Use of tricyclohexylphosphine tetrafluoroborate as ligand gave good percentage conversions and suppressed competing debromination with the substrates evaluated. This arylation strategy should be broadly useful in the synthesis of C-homoaporphine alkaloids as demonstrated herein in the synthesis of (±)-homonantenine.

Carbazole and Diketopyrrolopyrrole-Based D-A π-Conjugated Oligomers Accessed via Direct C–H Arylation for Opto-Electronic Property and Performance Study

Project description:Five carbazole and diketopyrrolopyrrole-based donor-acceptor (D-A) new π-conjugated oligomers (π-COs) with gradually elongated lengths are facilely synthesized via a single pot of direct C–H arylation with merits of atom- and step-economy. The structure-property-performance correlations of these π-COs and their parent polymer are studied in detail by opto-electronic characterizations and bulk heterojunction (BHJ) organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices. It is found that the π-COs having longer lengths enable better performance in OPVs owing to the enhanced intermolecular interaction with the elongation of the conjugations. The above results not only highlight the powerful synthetic strategy here provided, but also reveal that π-COs with unique properties might find promising application in OPVs.

Synthesis, Anticancer Activity, and Apoptosis Induction of Novel 3,6-Diazaphenothiazines.

Project description:New 10-substituted derivatives of 3,6-diazaphenothiazine, containing the triple bond linker terminated with tertiary cyclic and acyclic amine groups, were synthesized and screened for their anticancer action. The compounds exhibited varied anticancer activities against human glioblastoma SNB-19, melanoma C-32, and breast cancer MDA-MB231 cell lines, depending on the nature of the substituents. The most active 3,6-diazaphenothiazine, 4, was the derivative with the N,N-diethylamino-2-butynyl substituent against glioblastoma SNB-19, and was ten times more potent than cisplatin. For this compound, the expression of H3, TP53, CDKN1A, BCL-2, and BAX genes was detected by the RT-qPCR method. The gene expression ratio BAX/BCL-2 indicated the induction of mitochondrial apoptosis in cancer cell lines. The transformation of the propynyl substituent into amino-2-butynyl can be a method applicable to the search for more anticancer-active azaphenothiazines.

Synthesis of fully asymmetric diketopyrrolopyrrole derivatives.

Project description:Diaryl-diketopyrrolopyrroles (DPP) are a widely studied class of chromophore that possesses unique properties which have been of great interest for use in conjugated polymers and as small molecules in optoelectronic devices. While previously only partially asymmetric DPP derivatives have been reported, here a novel methodology towards fully asymmetric DPP derivatives is demonstrated via the synthesis and condensation of novel alkylated thienyl pyrrolinone esters with aromatic nitriles followed by N-alkylation. Two fully asymmetric DPP structural isomers T-DPP-P and P-DPP-T were synthesised demonstrating the full customizability of the DPP core. A further two fully asymmetric DPP derivatives incorporating an ethylene glycol chain and a furan moiety were also synthesised, demonstrating the scope of this powerful methodology and it's potential to largely broaden the library of available DPP derivatives.

Design, Synthesis, and Anticancer Activity of Novel 3,6-Diunsaturated 2,5-Diketopiperazines.

Project description:Based on the marine natural products piperafizine B, XR334, and our previously reported compound 4m, fourteen novel 3,6-diunsaturated 2,5-diketopiperazine (2,5-DKP) derivatives (1, 2, 4-6, 8-16), together with two known ones (3 and 7), were designed and synthesized as anticancer agents against the A549 and Hela cell lines. The MTT assay results showed that the derivatives 6, 8-12, and 14 had moderate to good anticancer capacities, with IC50 values ranging from 0.7 to 8.9 μM. Among them, compound 11, with naphthalen-1-ylmethylene and 2-methoxybenzylidene functions at the 3 and 6 positions of 2,5-DKP ring, respectively, displayed good inhibitory activities toward both A549 (IC50 = 1.2 μM) and Hela (IC50 = 0.7 μM) cancer cells. It could also induce apoptosis and obviously block cell cycle progression in the G2/M phases in both cells at 1.0 μM. The electron-withdrawing functions might not be favorable for the derivatives with high anticancer activities. Additionally, compared to piperafizine B and XR334, these semi-N-alkylated derivatives have high liposolubilities (>1.0 mg mL-1). Compound 11 can be further developed, aiming at the discovery of a novel anticancer candidate.

Novel Monosulfonated Azo Dyes: Design, Synthesis, and Application as Disperse Dyes on Polyester Fabrics.

Project description:This study synthesizes and characterizes a series of disperse dyes based on azo Schiff bases, compounds 8-10. Their structures were identified using various analytical techniques, such as FT-IR, 1H/13C NMR, and mass spectrometry. The study's primary objective was to investigate the behavior of disperse dyes 8-10 when used for dyeing polyester fabrics under different conditions, including variations in time, temperature, shade, and pH. The polyester fabric was chosen for this research due to its wide usage and popularity in the textile industry. By examining the effect of temperature and time on the dyeing process, it was observed that increasing the dyeing temperature from low to high (ranging from 90 to 120 °C) and extending the dyeing time from 10 to 30 min resulted in higher K/S values for the polyester samples dyed with disperse dyes. Additionally, dyes 9 and 10 exhibited the most excellent K/S values among the tested dyes. Furthermore, the study found that dye 8 showed the best dyeing performance as the pH of the dye bath increased to 6.
