The substituent effects on the E（Red） of target compounds were analyzed and an optimality equation with four parameters （Hammett constant a of X, Hammett constant a of Y, excited-state substituent constant σexCC of X, and the substituent specific cross-interaction effect △σexCC2 between X and Y） was obtained. The results show that the factors affecting the E（Red） of 3,4＇/4,31/3,3P-substituted XBAYs are different from those of 4,4＇-substituted XBAYs. For 3,4＇/4,3＇/3,3＇-substituted XBAYs, σ（X） and σ（Y） must be employed, and the contribution of △σexCC2 is important and not negligible. Compared with 4,4＇-substituted XBAYs, X group contributes less to 3,4＇/4,3＇/3,3＇-substituted XBAYs, while Y group contributes more to them. Additionally, it was observed that either para-substituted XBAYs or meta-substituted XBAYs, the substituent effects of X are larger than those of Y on the E（Red） of substituted XBAYs.展开更多

However, some sulfonylureas might persist unfavourably in the environment with residual problems. In order to look for ecologically safer and environmentally benign sulfonylureas, and on keeping the pyrimidine ring being monosubstitated, 15 novd C5-monosubstituted benzenesulfonylurea compounds were synthesized. The structures of all the compounds synthesized were confirmed by demental analysis and ^1H NMR. Preliminary herbicidal activities of these new sulfonylurea compounds were determined by ALS screening （ in vitro） and pot bioassay experiments（ in vivo）. The herbicidal results show that some novel sulfonylureas are comparable to commercial Foramsulfuron and Monosulfuron.展开更多

Thus, selective NOP agonists might have clinical potential for the treatment of related diseases. In the present work, three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship（3D-QSAR） studies were performed on a series of 3-substituted N-benzhydryl-nortropane analogs as NOP agonists using comparative molecular field analysis（Co MFA） and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis（CoM SIA） techniques. The statistically significant models were obtained with 54 compounds in training set by ligand-based atom-by-atom matching alignment. The CoM FA model gave cross-validated coefficient（q2） value of 0.530 using 6 components, non-cross-validated（r2） value of 0.921 with estimated F value of 93.668, and standard error of estimate（SEE） of 0.185. The best Co MSIA model resulted in q2 = 0.592, r2 = 0.945, N = 10, SEE = 0.162, and F = 75.654, based on steric, electrostatic, hydrophobic and hydrogen bond acceptor fields. The predictive ability of the Co MFA and CoM SIA models was further validated using a test set of 18 molecules that were not included in the training set, which resulted in predictive correlation coefficients（r2pred） of 0.551 and 0.637, respectively. Moreover, the CoM FA and CoM SIA contour maps identified the features important for exhibiting potent binding affinities on NOP, and can thus serve as a useful guide for the design of potential NOP agonists.展开更多

The molar ratio of the chromone compound(5) to the ring-opening compound(6) varied with the change of reaction temperature and time. Based on MTT protocol,the antitumor activity of each of the compounds obtained was evaluated against three human cancer cell lines: KB(oral epidermal),A2780(ovary) and Bel7402(liver). The IC_ 50 varied from 54.7 μmol/L to more than 180 μmol/L.展开更多
