- Description: N-Salicylideneaniline (SA) and its derivatives are known to possess chromism upon exposure to external stimuli. Herein, we present mechanochemical synthesis of a series of photo-and thermoresponsive SAderivatives and report on solid-state stabilisation of their tautomeric forms either by change in temperature or by photoirradiation. The influence of UV light on proton transfer between the enol-imine (EI) and keto-amine (KA) forms was investigated at l1 = 254 and l2 = 365 nm. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements provided extra information on the thermodynamic relationship between the prototropic tautomers, and their exposition to liquid nitrogen, combined with variable temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction (VT-SCXRD) and spectroscopic data, ascertained structural reasons for the intrinsic thermo-optical properties of the compounds. A series of structural determinations between 150 and 300 K further shed light on the thermomechanical behaviour exhibited by the thermoresponsive compounds. By virtue of calorimetry we were able to demonstrate proton transfer via the intramolecular ON hydrogen bond over the temperature range 193–453 K. This present work demonstrates the importance of applying complementary analytical techniques and appropriate approaches for understanding the switching behaviour between the EI and KA forms. Furthermore, the assertion that it is predominantly the planarity (j o 251) that determines thermochromaticity is questioned.

- Description: Herein a series of novel thiosemicarbazones (TSCs) derived from 2-oxoquinoline scaffold is reported, and the target compounds have been successfully synthesized and characterized using standard spectroscopic techniques. The in vitro biological activities of synthesized molecules were evaluated against Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites (strain 3D7), Trypanosoma brucei brucei parasites (strain 427) and HeLa cells. All the compounds displayed modest or no activity at a concentration of 20 μM and percentage viability of >50 % was often observed. Except for compound 9o, none of the final compounds exhibited cytotoxic effects against HeLa cells at 20 μM.
