Cationic Polymerization of Dihydropyran Derivatives

Antibacterial and Antitumor Activities of Biscoumarin and Dihydropyran Derivatives.

A novel series of biscoumarin (1-4) and dihydropyran (5-13) derivatives were synthesized via a one-pot multicomponent condensation reaction and evaluated for antibacterial and antitumor activity in vitro. The X-ray crystal structure analysis of four representative compounds, 3, 7, 9 and 11, confirmed the structures of these compounds. Compounds 1-4 showed the most potent antitumor activity amon...

Two-cationic 2-methylbenzothiazole derivatives as green light absorbed sensitizers in initiation of free radical polymerization

N-Methylpyridinium esters derivatives of 2-methylbenzothiazole hemicyanine dyes photoinitiators/photosensitizers derived from N-propyl-3-[N-2-methylbenzothiazolo]-4-pyridyno phenylacetic acid ester diiodide and N-propyl-3-[N-2-me]thylbenzothiazolo]-4-pyridino diphenylacetic acid ester diiodide were synthesized and proposed as new photoinitiators of polymerization of 2-ethyl-(2-hydroxymethyl)-1,...

Wavelength tunability in photoinitiated cationic polymerization

Onium salts, widely used cationic photoinitiators, have absorption in the short wavelength of the UV spectrum. However, their spectral sensitivity can be tuned up to the visible region by using several methods. Photosensitization of onium salts, their charge transfer complex formation and their free radical promotion are some techniques that are used to provide wavelength flexibility. This chap...

Synthesis of Biscoumarin and Dihydropyran Derivatives and Evaluation of Their Antibacterial Activity.

In an attempt to find a new class antibacterial agents, a series of biscoumarins (1-4) and dihydropyrans (5-13) were successfully prepared. The molecular structures of four representative compounds, that is, 4, 5, 8 and 12 were confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction study. These synthesized compounds were screened for their antibacterial activity in vitro against Staphylococcus aureus (S...
