Analysis of the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) and determination of the dual descriptor revealed that in most cases, the nitrogen atoms of the 6-πelectron conjugation, the oxygen, and the sulfur atom are nucleophilic site. Chemical reactivity of the compounds was assessed through analysis of frontier molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO), energy gap (Δℰ), chemical hardness (η), and the softness (S). Consequently, the compound 9e exhibited the lowest reactivity, least electron donating, and the highest stability. This comprehensive study offers valuable insights into the chemical behavior of these derivatives, crucial for further exploration and potential applications.展开更多

Free 1 mainly displayed very weak fluorescence at 480 nm upon excitation at 403 nm. It displayed high selectivity for Zn^2+ and had a 518- fold fluorescent enhancement upon binding of Zn^2+, while the other cation ions had only little influence on the fluorescence of 1. Mechanism of enhancement of l's fluorescence by Zn^2+ was briefly discussed.展开更多

All the target compounds were evaluated for their antiproliferative activities against human leukemia cell line (HL-60), human lung adenocarcinoma epithelial cell line (A549) and human breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231) in vitro by standard MTT assay. The pharmacological results indicated that some compounds exhibited promising antitumor activities. Compound 1j showed the most potent antiproliferative activity against the tested three cell lines with IC50 values of 0.13 μmol/L, 0.7 μmol/L and 0.5μmol/L, respectively.展开更多
