Abstract:
AbstractCrown ethers containing an acridone or an acridine unit are successfully applied opto- and electrochemical cation sensors. The heteroaromatic unit of these macrocycles can be in different forms during the applications, which have a strong influence on the sensing behavior. Moreover, in the case of acridono-macrocycles a prototropic equilibrium takes place upon complexation, which is effected by the physicochemical characteristics. A Pb2+-selective acridono-18-crown-6 ether and its 9-phenylacridino-analogue were used as model compounds for comparing the different forms of the heterocycl

Abstract:
Background: The possible use of acridines as anticancer agents was first considered in the 1920´s. Since then, a large number of acridine drugs have been tested as antitumour agents, including compounds containing sulphur on the acridine chromophore. In this review, we will discuss recent studies which have investigated the anticancer activity of this class of acridine derivatives. Methods: We present the results both of our own decade-long research and also of existing research literature into the anticancer activity of acridine derivatives containing sulphur.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Antimalarial 9-anilinoacridines are potent inhibitors of parasite DNA topoisomerase II both in vitro and in situ. 3,6-Diamino substitution on the acridine ring greatly improves parasiticidal activity against Plasmodium falciparum by targeting DNA topoisomerase II. A series of 9-anilinoacridines were investigated for their abilities to inhibitβ -hematin formation, to form drug-hematin complexes, and to enhance hematin-induced lysis of red blood cells. Inhibition ofβ -hematin formation was minimal with 3,6-diamino analogs of 9-anilinoacridine and greatest with analogs with a 3,6-diCl su

Abstract:
The synthesis of oligomers containing two or three acridine units linked through 2-aminoethylglycine using solid-phase methodology is described. Subsequent studies on cell viability showed that these compounds are not cytotoxic. Binding to several DNA structures was studied by competitive dialysis, which showed a clear affinity for DNA sequences that form G-quadruplexes and parallel triplexes. The fluorescence spectra of acridine oligomers were affected strongly upon binding to DNA. These spectral changes were used to calculate the binding constants (K). LogKwere found to be in the order of 4–

In the present work, we have assayed both the in vitro and in vivo action of two acridine compounds against Leishmania donovani. As part of this effort, we have studied the possible action mechanism of these compounds at the ultrastructural and biochemical levels and in relation to the synthesis of macromolecules. The two acridinones inhibit the in vitro growth of the promastigote forms of L. donovani at the highest concentration assayed (100 micrograms/ml). The in vivo results indicate that both compounds reduce the number of amastigotes per gram of spleen, and decrease parasitism, by more th

Abstract:
Raman spectroscopy is used to study the effect of pH on the solute/sorbent interactions and the chemical nature of the adsorbed species at the aqueous/silica interface for the aza-arenes acridine, quinoline, and pyridine. The neutral aza-arene is hydrogen-bonded to surface sites in aqueous media in which the pH is above the p Ka of the compound. A protonated aza-arene/ClO4− ion pair interacts with surface sites in aqueous solutions in which the pH is below the pKa of the compound. These results may be useful in predicting the fate of these environmentally significant compounds in groundwater.
