Interaction of aromatic compounds and anions with naphthylimide-dansylamide fluorescent dyad: Experimental evidence of aryl C-H π and aryl C-H anion contacts and DFT calculations.

In this work the interaction of halide anions and simple aromatic compounds with a bichromophoric fluorescent dyad derived from 1,8-naphthalimide (NAPIM) and 5-(dimethylamino)naphthalene-1-sulfonyl (DANS) was studied using electronic spectroscopy, 1H, and 19F NMR spectroscopy and quantum chemistry modeling (b3lyp/def2-TZVP). The NAPIM-DANS dyad interacts with electron-rich guests with binding constants in the range of 6×103 to 8×103M-1 in CHCl3. The formed complexes are stabilized through aryl C-H … anion and aryl C-H … π interactions.

Solvent- and Catalyst-Free One-Pot Green Bound-Type Fused Bis-Heterocycles Synthesis via Groebke-Blackburn-Bienaymé Reaction/SNAr/Ring-Chain Azido-Tautomerization Strategy.

A new, efficient, green, endogenous water-triggered, solvent- and catalyst-free ultrasound-assisted one-pot Groebke-Blackburn-Bienaymé reaction/SNAr/ring-chain azido-tautomerization strategy to synthesize bound-type fused bis-heterocycles imidazo or benzo[d]imidazo[2,1-b]thiazoles and 1,5-disubstituted tetrazole (1,5-DsT) containing quinoline moiety is described, which allows synthesis of two types of fused heterocycles in one step under mild green conditions. Antibacterial and antiamebic activities of selected newly synthesized compounds were carried out against three bacterial species: Gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538 and Gram-negative bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 13384 and Escherichia coli O55 and against one amebic species: Entamoeba histolytica.

Crystal structure of N,N'-bis[2-((benzyl){[5-(di-methyl-amino)naph-tha-len-1-yl]sulfonyl}amino)ethyl]naphthalene-1,8:4,5-tetracarboximide 1,2-di-chloro-benzene tris-olvate.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C56H50N6O8S2·3C6H4Cl2, contains two half-mol-ecules of the parent, A and B, which both have crystallographic inversion symmetry, together with three 2,3-di-chloro-benzene mol-ecules of solvation. Mol-ecules A and B are conformationally similar, with dihedral angles between the central naphthalenedi-imide ring and the peripheral naphthalene and benzyl rings of 2.43 (7), 81.87 (7)° (A) and 3.95 (7), 84.88 (7)° (B), respectively. The conformations are stabilized by the presence of intra-molecular π-π inter-actions between the naphthalene ring and the six-membered di-imide ring of the central naphthalenedi-imide moiety, with ring centroid-to-centroid distances of 3.5795 (8) Š(A) and 3.5640 (8) Š(B). In the crystal, C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into infinite supra-molecular chains along the c axis. These chains are inter-connected through C-H⋯π and offset π-π inter-actions, generating supra-molecular nanotubes which are filled by 1,2-di-chloro-benzene mol-ecules.
