These gold compounds were characterized by multinuclear NMR, microanalysis, mass spectrometry, and X-ray crystallography. The inherent electrochemical properties of the gold complexes were also studied by cyclic voltammetry and theoretical insight of the complexes was gained by density functional theory and TD-DFT calculations. The complexes efectively kill cancer cells with IC50 in the range of ~0.10–2.53 μΜ across K562, H460, and OVCAR8 cell lines. In addition, the retinal pigment epithelial cell line, RPE-Neo was used as a healthy cell line for comparison. Diferential cellular uptake in cancer cells was observed for the compounds by measuring the intracellular accumulation of gold using ICP-OES. Furthermore, the compounds trigger early – late stage apoptosis through potential disruption of redox homeostasis. Complexes 1 and 3 induce predominant G1 cell cycle arrest. Results presented in this report suggest that stable gold-phosphine complexes with variable oxidation states hold promise in anticancer drug discovery and need further development. Gold-based probe development and drug discovery remain a burgeoning area of biological research and treat- ment for disease indications such as cancer1–5, arthritis6–9, and microbial infection10,11 following the FDA approval of tetra-O-acetylglucose-1-thiolgold(I) triethylphosphine complex (auranofn).

    Highly Luminescent 4-Pyridyl-Extended Dithieno[3,2-b:2′,3′-d]phospholes Paul Demay-Drouhard, Thomas Baumgartner* Department of Chemistry, York University, 4700 Keele St. Toronto, ON M3J 1P3, Canada Email: [email protected] ABstract. The unexpectedly challenging synthesis of 4-pyridyl-extended dithieno[3,2-b:2′,3′- d]phospholes via Stille cross-coupling is reported. The optical and electrochemical properties of the phosphoryl-bridged species were studied experimentally and computationally, and their properties compared to their non-P-bridged congeners. The 4-pyridyl-extended dithieno- phospholes display quantitative luminescence quantum yields in solution. Due to their very high brightness, even in water, 4-pyridyl-extended dithienophospholes are highly promising candidates for new fluorescent probes. INTRODUCTION Over the past decades, there has been a surge in the development of new organic building blocks with useful optoelectronic properties for practical applications in a variety of organic electronics.1–5 Some representative molecular platforms include oligothiophenes due to their outstanding charge transport properties,6 and viologens for their reversible redox behavior.7 Tuning the properties of these systems via main-group elements is an interesting strategy as it can result in unique changes in terms of luminescence, supramolecular organization, and 1 electrochemistry.8 We have been focusing our attention on phosphorus-containing π- conjugated species,9 especially the highly luminescent dithieno[3,2-b:2′,3′-d]phosphole10 and the related redox-active phosphaviologen11 scaffolds (Figure 1). In these systems, the addition of phosphorus reduces the energy of LUMO level via negative hyperconjugation from endocyclic σ* orbitals with the π* system.8 Figure 1.

Virgil Chairman Professor Gregory C. Fu Thesis Supervisor Professor Stephen L. Buchwald ,- , _ ABSTRACT A variety of organotransition metal complexes (M=Rh, Fe, and Ru) were synthesized and their use in catalysis investigated. Our two principal areas of interest were in the directed, catalytic hydroboration of olefins and in nucleophile- catalyzed reactions. Indenylrhodium(olefin)2 (and other Cp-derived rhodium complexes) were utilized in the directed hydroboration reactions. Both iron and ruthenium complexes with n-bound heterocyclic ligands were utilized in the study of nucleophilic catalysis. The directed hydroborations utilized a variety of CpXRh(olefin)2 catalysts. We were interested in exploring ring slippage of the Cp x ligand to access the coordinative unsaturation necessary to accomplish a directed reaction. Generally, a 12 e- transition metal fragment is required for a directed process to occur. In the hydroboration reaction, the olefin ligands of CpXRh(olefin) 2 are rapidly hydroborated, leaving "r 5-CpXRh" as the active catalyst (14 e-).

There is still much debate on the subject that which of the reactivity, energy, magnetic and geometric patterns can better assess this feature. On other hand, heterocyclic compounds play an important role in biological processes. Hence, the scientists are trying to understand the chemistry of heterocyclic in order to improve the quality of human life. Structural study of many of these compounds due to limited synthetic methods is difficult; however, using chemical calculations, assessments of sustainability and magnetic properties of many known or unknown heterocyclic compounds would be possible. This study reviews the various criteria of Aromaticity evaluation of heterocyclic compounds containing a common heteroatom at two rings junction to achieve a comprehensive view of these methods. Keywords: Aromaticity, NICS, (HOMO-LUMO)gap, Susceptibility exaltations Received 09.03.2014 Revised 12.04.2014 Accepted 04.06.2014 INTRODUCTION Heterocyclic compounds play an important role in biological processes; hence, the scientists are trying to understand the chemistry of heterocyclic compounds in order to improve the quality of human life [1].
