Modarelli ii ABSTRACT This research was divided into two main parts. In the first part, a new facile route to relatively inexpensive thermoplastic polyphenoxyquinoxalines was developed. The synthetic route involves the aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction of bisphenols with 2,3-dichloroquinoxaline. The dichloro monomer was prepared in two steps. In the first step, oxalic acid was condensed with o-phenylenediamine to give 2,3- dihydroxyquinoxaline. In the second step, 2,3-dihydroxyquinoxaline was treated with thionyl chloride to give 2,3-dichloroquinoxaline. This monomer was successfully polymerized with bisphenol-A, bisphenol-S, hexafluorobisphenol-A and 9,9-bis(4- hydroxyphenyl)fluorenone. Hydroquinone and biphenol, however, can not be polymerized to high molecular weight polymers because of the premature precipitation of crystalline oligomers. The glass transition temperatures of the high molecular weight polymers prepared from a series of bisphenols range from 191 °C to 279 °C, and their thermal decomposition temperatures are around 500 °C. The polymers are soluble in a wide range of solvents and can be solution-cast into thin films that are colorless and transparent. The polymers have tensile strengths ranging from 61 to 107 MPa, and tensile moduli ranging from 3.5 to 2.3 GPa. The synthesis of polymer obtained from 2,3- dichloroquinoxaline and bisphenol-A was scaled up to afford 500 g of material. This polymer is a thermoplastic with a melt-viscosity less than 1000 Pa.s. at 300 °C. The notched Izod impact strength of injection-molded samples of this polymer is 40.7 J/m. iii In the second part of this research, the synthetic method has been modified to allow the preparation of quinoxaline containing polyimides. Thus, 2,3- dichloroquinoxaline was treated either with p-nitrophenol followed by reduction of nitro groups, or with p-aminophenols to directly obtain the desired 2,3-(4- aminophenoxy)quinoxaline. This diamine was polymerized with 3,3’,4,4’- biphenyldianhydride, 4,4’-oxydiphthalic anhydride and 2,2’-bis(3,4- dicarboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane dianhydride. The polymerizations were carried out by the two step method. The poly(amic acid) intermediates were thermally imidized. Although they have high molecular weights judged by their inherent viscosities ranging from 0.51 to 1.01, thin films of all these polyimides were brittle. The glass transition temperatures of the polyimides range from 259 °C to 282 °C with thermal decomposition temperatures around 550 °C. The polyimide obtained from 2,3-(4- aminophenoxy)quinoxaline and 3,3’,4,4’-biphenyldianhydride was found to be semi- crystalline. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank to my advisor Dr. Frank W.

The results of gravimetric and electrochemical methods demonstrated that the inhibition efficiency increased with an increase in inhibitor concentration in 1M HCl solution. The results from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy proved that the inhibition action of this drug was due to adsorption on the metal surface. Potentiodynamic polarization studies revealed that the molecule was a mixed type inhibitor. The adsorption of the molecule on the metal surface was found to obey Langmuir Adsorption isotherm. Potential of zero charge at the metal-solution interface was measured to provide the inhibition mechanism. The temperature dependence of the corrosion rate was also studied in the temperature range from 30 to 50 °C. Quantum chemical calculations were applied to correlate electronic structure parameters of the drug with its inhibition performance.

Phosphonic acid and phosphonate moieties increased the antiproliferative activity in comparison to phenolic Mannich bases previously reported. Most of the obtained compounds revealed a strong antiproliferative effect against leukemia cell line (MV-4-11) with simultaneous low cytotoxicity against normal cell line (mouse fibroblasts-BALB/3T3). The most active compound was diphenyl-[(1R,6R)-3-oxo-2,5-diazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-4-yl]phosphonate. Preliminary evaluation of the mechanism of action showed the proapoptotic effect associated with caspase 3/7 induction.

Brown, and Derek Bowie The Oxford Handbook of Neuronal Ion Channels Edited by Arin Bhattacharjee Subject: Neuroscience, Molecular and Cellular Systems Online Publication Date: Oct 2020 DOI: 10.1093/oxfordhb/9780190669164.013.8 Abstract and Keywords α-Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) and kainate-type gluta­ mate receptors (AMPARs and KARs) are dynamic ion channel proteins that govern neu­ ronal excitation and signal transduction in the mammalian brain. The four AMPAR and five KAR subunits can heteromerize with other subfamily members to create several com­ binations of tetrameric channels with unique physiological and pharmacological proper­ ties. While both receptor classes are noted for their rapid, millisecond-scale channel gat­ ing in response to agonist binding, the intricate structural rearrangements underlying their function have only recently been elucidated. This chapter begins with a review of AMPAR and KAR nomenclature, topology, and rules of assembly. Subsequently, receptor gating properties are outlined for both single-channel and synaptic contexts. The struc­ tural biology of AMPAR and KAR proteins is also discussed at length, with particular fo­ cus on the ligand-binding domain, where allosteric regulation and alternative splicing work together to dictate gating behavior. Toward the end of the chapter there is an overview of several classes of auxiliary subunits, notably transmembrane AMPAR regula­ tory proteins and Neto proteins, which enhance native AMPAR and KAR expression and channel gating, respectively. Whether bringing an ion channel novice up to speed with glutamate receptor theory and terminology or providing a refresher for more seasoned biophysicists, there is much to appreciate in this summation of work from the glutamate receptor field.
