AB  - Five novel D-π-A structured pyridinium based compounds, bearing different electron-donating units were synthesized, minutely characterized, and their solvatochromic and electronic properties were investigated. Subsequently, these compounds were added to a liquid electrolyte in order to enhance the photovoltaic performance of the N719-sensitized solar cell. It was demonstrated that the utilization of all compounds improved the conversion efficiency, compared to the reference solar cell comprised of plain liquid electrolyte. The photovoltaic performance of the fabricated DSSC depended of the electron-donating moiety of the synthesized compound. The highest photovoltaic conversion efficiency of 4.11% was obtained for DSSC with the compound bearing the 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)phenyl group.

AB  - In this work, the electrooxidation ability of nine pyridones was evaluated using cyclic(CV) and square-wave voltammetry (SWV) in Britton–Robinson (BR) aqueous buffer solutions on aglassy carbon electrode (GC). The dependence of electrochemical activity on pyridone structure waselucidated by means of experimentally obtained spectra and quantum chemical calculations. Firstly, itwas shown that electrochemical activity is determined by the –OH group as a substituent in position6 of the pyridone ring. By coupling the experimentally obtained UV-Vis spectra and DFT calculations,the most stable forms, both protonated and deprotonated, were defined. The calculated values areconsistent with the electrochemical behavior observed, indicating that the deprotonated anionic formwas the most electrochemically active. Moreover, the impact of the substituent in position 3 of thepyridone scaffold was discussed

Photophysical properties of the dyes were examined in solvents of various polarities and at different pH values. The solvent effects on the absorbance and emission spectral shift were analyzed using Lippert-Mataga, Reichardt-Dimroth and Kamlet-Taft equations. Moreover, UV-Vis absorption and emission frequencies were correlated with Hammett substituent constants applying the linear free energy relationships. DFT calculations of the investigated dyes were accomplished to determine their structural and electronic properties.

All obtained compounds were characterized by ultraviolet (UV), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), H-1 and C-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy as well as by elemental analysis. The influence of the substituent electronic effects on spectroscopic data was analyzed by applying the Hammett equation. Moreover, a detailed interpretation and comparison of experimentally obtained and theoretically calculated FT-IR, UV and NMR spectra was performed. Density functional theory (DFT) calculated data of the investigated succinimides were obtained and analyzed in order to determine their structural, spectroscopic and electronic properties. Furthermore, ADMET factor profiling and in-silico prediction of potential biological activities of novel succinimide derivatives have been performed.

AB  - In the present study, twelve new 1-aryl-3-ethyl-3-methylpyrrolidine-2,5-diones were synthesized and their structures were characterized by FT-IR, H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. In the final step of synthetic rout, condensation between corresponding succinic acid and substituted anilines has been improved using the microwave irradiation. Significantly higher yields compared to conventional condensation have been observed. The preliminary biological results indicated that some of the synthesized compounds showed promising in vitro antifungal activities towards several test fungi. 1-(4-Bromophenyl)-3-ethyl-3-methylpyrrolidine-2,5-dione (8) exhibited significant in vitro inhibitory activities against broad spectra of fungus, and on the basis of obtained data, the investigated bromo derivative has to be observed as novel potential fungicide. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed in order to study the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of the investigated molecules. In order to prediction of the chemical activity of the molecule, the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) map was analyzed for the optimized geometry of 1-phenyl-3-ethyl-3-methylpyrrolidine-2,5-dione (4) and 1-(4-bromophenyl)-3-ethyl-3-methylpyrrolidine-2,5-dione (8).

AB  - Two series of cycloalkanespiro-5-hydantoins, namely cyclo-hexanespiro-5-hydantoins and cycloheptanespiro-5-hydantoins with a 4-substituted benzyl or a 2-(4-substituted phenyl)-2-oxoethyl group at N3 position, were synthesized and their effects on proliferation of human colon (HCT-116), leukemia (K562) and breast (MDA-MB-231) cancer cell lines were tested. For comparison, we also described the 5,5-diphenylhydantoin analogues. The structural features of the investigated compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-Vis, H-1 and C-13 NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Regarding their structure-activity relationships, it was shown that the substitution on the benzyl moiety with the methoxy, chloro or bromo group potentiated the antiproliferative activity relative to the parent compounds, while an increase in the size of the cycloalkyl group resulted mostly in a decrease of the antiproliferative activity. The single crystal X-ray analysis revealed the existence of dimers and chains formed by the N-H center dot center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds. The analysis of the molecular descriptors of Lipinski demonstrated that all investigated compounds obeyed the rule of five. To further understand their geometry and electronic structure, OFT calculations with B3LYP method using 6-311++G(d,p) basic set were performed. In this context, the UV-Vis spectra of the investigated compounds were analyzed in detail, whereby the predicted absorption spectra from DFT calculation matched the experimentally obtained ones, with a good correlation. The interesting physico-chemical and pharmacologically relevant properties of the investigated compounds warrant their further investigation.

AB  - In order to get a better insight into the relationship between molecular structure and photovoltaic performance, six monoazo dye molecules containing benzoic and cinnamic acid moieties were synthesized and their photovoltaic properties were studied. Three of them have not been previously used in solar cells. Spectroscopic measurements of the investigated compounds coupled with theoretical calculations were performed. Short-circuit current density, open-circuit voltage, and fill-factor were determined. It was found that a larger amount of short-circuit current density will be generated if the HOMO-LUMO energy gap is lower, determined by the stability of the molecule and the electronic effect of the donor moiety. Among both series of synthesized dye molecules, the highest obtained values of short-circuit current density were achieved with (2-hydroxynaphthalene-1-ylazo)benzoic acid and (2-hydroxynaphthalene-1-ylazo)cinnamic acid, and thus they were regarded as promising candidates for application in dye-sensitized solar cells.

AB  - A series of succinimide derivatives were studied using the cyclic and square wave voltammetry. Density function theory was used in order to determinate which of the structural parameters influence the electrochemical activity. The quantum chemical calculations of the investigated succinimides were linked with the experimental electrochemical data and used to propose the oxidation mechanism. The most active among studied succinimides is 1,3-diphenylsuccinimide. The results obtained from the cyclic and square wave voltammetry and quantum chemical calculations indicate that the investigated compounds undergo oxidation by irreversible, diffusion controlled process including transfer of 1e(-) and 1 proton. The voltammetric and DFT results signify that the mechanism of electrochemical oxidation of all compounds involve the conversion of carbonyl-methyne-phenyl segment or methylene group in free radical. This conversion proceeds by the loss of one proton one electron process.

Fourier Transform-infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra prove the existence of the hydrazone form in the solid state and in dimethyl sulphoxide, which is also supported by vibrational and NMR theoretical studies. Ultraviolet (UV) spectral properties, as well as solvatochromism in 19 solvents of different polarity, are investigated. In most of the solvents, the dye is solely present in the hydrazone form, whereas in certain solvents, an acid-base equilibrium exists. Excellent agreement between computational and experimental UV-visible data was established. Frontier Molecular Orbital analysis was performed and proved the existence of intramolecular charge transfer through the dye molecule. A molecular electrostatic potential surface was plotted over the optimised geometry to lighten the reactivity of the investigated molecule.

AB  - Ten 5-(substituted phenylazo)-3-cyano-1-ethyl-6-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pyridones were studied (five new compounds) to provide insight into the electronic effects of diverse substituents located at different positions in their phenyl moieties. The structural features of these dyes were examined by combining experimental and theoretical approaches. The crystal structures of two derivatives were revealed by X-ray crystallography and diverse packing modes owing to different intermolecular interactions (- stacking and lone pair- interactions, as well as hydrogen bonds) were found. A study on lattice energy and energy related to the molecular pairs obtained from their crystal packing was performed. The tautomerism and ionisation of the dyes in ethanol or N,N -dimethylformamide solution were rationalised in terms of diazo component substitution pattern.

AB  - The structure-property relationship of newly synthesized 3-(4-substituted benzyl)-1,3-diazaspiro [4.4] nonane-2,4-diones was studied by experimental and calculated methods. The prepared compounds were characterized by UV-Vis, FT-IR, H-1 NMR and C-13 NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The crystal structure was elucidated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The 3-benzy1-1,3-diazaspiro[4.41nonane-2,4-dione crystallizes in triclinic P-1 space group, with two crystallographically independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. Cyclopentane ring adopts an envelope conformation. A three-dimensional crystal packing is governed by hydrogen N-H center dot center dot center dot O bonds, numerous C-H center dot center dot center dot O/N and C-H center dot center dot center dot pi interactions between neighboring molecules. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations with B3LYP and M06-2X methods using 6-311++G(d,p) basis set were performed to provide structural and spectroscopic information. Comparisons between experimental and calculated UV-Vis spectral properties suggest that the monomeric form of the investigated spirohydantoins is dominant in all used solvents. The effects of substituents on the absorption spectra of spirohydantoins are interpreted by correlation of absorption frequencies with Hammett equation. The lipophilicities of the investigated molecules were estimated by calculation of their log P values. Some of the spirohydantoins synthesized in this work, exhibit the lipophilicities comparable to the standard medicine anticonvulsant drug Phenytoin. The results obtained in this investigation afford guidelines for the preparation of new derivatives of spirohydantoin as potential anticonvulsant agents and for better understanding the structure-activity relationship.

AB  - A series of ten 1-aryl-3-methylsuccinimides was synthesized and their solvatochromic properties were studied in a set of fifteen binary solvent mixtures. The solute-solvent interactions were analyzed on the basis of the linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) concept proposed by Kamlet and Taft. The electronic effect of the substituents on the UV-Vis absorption and NMR spectra was analyzed using the simple Hammett equation. Moreover, the B3LYP, CAM-B3LYP, and M06-2X functionals using the 6-311G(d,p) basic set have been assessed in light of the position of experimental absorption maxima obtained for these compounds. The integration grid effects have also been evaluated. An interpretation of the substituent-effect transmission through the molecular skeleton and the nature of the HOMO and LUMO orbitals based on quantum-chemical calculations is given. The values of partial atomic charges from the atomic polar tenzors (APT), natural population analysis (NBO), and charges fit to the electrostatic potential using the B3LYP, CAM-B3LYP, and M06-2X methods are produced and correlated with different experimental properties. In order to estimate the chemical activity of the molecule, the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) surface map is calculated for the optimized geometry of 1-phenyl-3-methylsuccinimide.

AB  - In this paper, spectroscopic and quantum mechanical investigation of nine 4-aryl-5-arylazo-3-cyano-6-hydroxy-2-pyridone dyes was performed, and obtained density functional theory (DFT) results were compared with experimental data. The structural and spectroscopic properties of azo-2-pyridone dyes were studied by DFT using B3LYP, CAM-B3LYP, and M06-2X methods with a 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. Comparison of results reveals that the scaled theoretical vibrational frequencies of azo dyes are in good agreement with experimental data. The time-dependent DFT calculated and experimental ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectra are also in good agreement. The effect of electron-donating -OCH3 and electron-withdrawing -NO2 groups on the structural parameters, vibrational frequencies, UV-vis absorption, and natural bond orbital (NBO) atomic charges were thoroughly analysed. Vibrational, UV-vis, and NBO analyses confirm that investigated dyes exist in the hydrazo tautomeric form in the solid state and ethanol solution. These analyses signify the occurrence of intramolecular charge transfer in these azo-pyridone dyes.

AB  - A series of cycloalkane-5-spirohydantoins bearing a halogeno substituted benzyl group (X = Cl and Br) in position 3 has been synthesized and their structures (1-6) have been determined by a single crystal X-ray diffraction method. These compounds have multiple functional groups, which allow greater competition and/ or cooperation among the different intermolecular interactions in the formation of their crystal structures. The molecules are linked together by paired N-H... O hydrogen bonds in R22(8) rings, while the CH. O interactions lead to their further association into double chains. The contribution of the cycloalkyl ring depends on its conformational flexibility and the multiple C-H donor implications. In the case of compounds 1-4 bearing the cyclopentyl or the cyclohexyl ring, halogen bonding (X...O) interactions give rise to a supramolecular pseudo-hexagonal network. In addition, the C-H... X interactions with a higher degree of multifurcation at the halogen acceptor have an important role in the formation of the crystal structure. Regarding compounds 5 and 6 with the cycloheptane ring, the X. O interaction is absent, and along with the C-H. X interactions, these compounds realize an alternative crystal structure with an emphasis on the X. p interactions. The lattice energies of all these crystal structures, as well as the intermolecular pair energies, have been calculated using PIXEL and further partitioned into coulombic, dispersive, polarization and repulsive factors. The crystal structures have also been subjected to Hirshfeld surface analysis which reveals that approximately 75% of the close contacts correspond to relatively weak interactions. The application of both concepts has provided a new insight into the relationship between the molecular interactions and crystal structures of the hydantoin derivatives.

AB  - Analiza strukturnih svojstava novih jedinjenja koja sadrže čvrsto jezgro i višestruke donorske i akceptorske atome može da doprinese boljem razumevanju uzajamnog dejstva nekovalentnih interakcija u izgradnji mogućih supramolekulskih
arhitektura. U tom cilju sintetisana je serija novih derivata ciklopentan-5-spirohidantoina i određena je njihova kristalna struktura. U ovom radu opisana je i
diskutovana kristalna struktura (3-[(4-bromofenil)metil]-1,3-diazaspiro[4.4]nonan-2,4-diona (slike 1 i 2). Jedinjenje kristališe u centrosimetričnoj, monokliničnoj prostornoj grupi P21/n sa jednim molekulom u asimetričnoj jedinici. Detaljna analiza kristalnog pakovanja ukazala je na postojanje uobičajenih
N–H···O vodoničnih veza, kao i na pojavu C–H···O, C–H···π i C–H···Br interakcija.
Takođe, nađeni su i kratki kontakti tipa C–Br···O=C. Doprinosi ovih interakcija
u izgradnji kristalnog pakovanja kvantifikovani su na osnovu izračunavanja metodom Coulomb–London–Pauli (CLP) [1]. U sprezi sa pregledom kristalnih struktura
derivata hidantoina u Kembričkoj bazi kristalnih struktura, razmatranje energije
interakcija različitih parova molekula omogućiće utvrđivanje zavisnosti između
njihove molekulske i kristalne strukture.
AB  - The analysis of structural features of new compounds comprising a rigid core with multiple donor and acceptor atoms can enhance our understanding of the interplay between
noncovalent interactions in building possible supramolecular assemblies. In this respect,
a series of new cyclopentane-5-spirohydantoin derivatives has been synthesized and their
crystal structures have been investigated (Figs. 1 and 2). Herein, the crystal structure of 3-
[(4-bromophenyl)methyl]-1,3-diazaspiro[4.4]nonane-2,4-dione is described and discussed. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic, centrosymmetric space group P21/n
with one molecule in the asymmetric unit. A detailed analysis of the crystal packing revealed the presence of usual N–H···O hydrogen bonds along with C–H···O, C–H···π and
C–H···Br interactions. Furthermore, a short C–Br···O=C contact also contributed to the
crystal packing. The stabilizing–destabilizing role of these interactions in terms of favorable energetic was quantified using the Coulomb–London–Pauli (CLP) method [1].
Supported with a survey of crystal structures containing the hydantoin moiety in the
Cambridge Structural Database, the decomposition of the interaction energies obtained for
different molecular pairs will provide a base for the evaluation of the relationships between
molecular and crystal structure of hydantoin derivatives.

arhitektura. U tom cilju sintetisana je serija novih derivata ciklopentan-5-spirohidantoina i određena je njihova kristalna struktura. U ovom radu opisana je i
diskutovana kristalna struktura (3-[(4-bromofenil)metil]-1,3-diazaspiro[4.4]nonan-2,4-diona (slike 1 i 2). Jedinjenje kristališe u centrosimetričnoj, monokliničnoj prostornoj grupi P21/n sa jednim molekulom u asimetričnoj jedinici. Detaljna analiza kristalnog pakovanja ukazala je na postojanje uobičajenih
N–H···O vodoničnih veza, kao i na pojavu C–H···O, C–H···π i C–H···Br interakcija.
Takođe, nađeni su i kratki kontakti tipa C–Br···O=C. Doprinosi ovih interakcija
u izgradnji kristalnog pakovanja kvantifikovani su na osnovu izračunavanja metodom Coulomb–London–Pauli (CLP) [1]. U sprezi sa pregledom kristalnih struktura
derivata hidantoina u Kembričkoj bazi kristalnih struktura, razmatranje energije
interakcija različitih parova molekula omogućiće utvrđivanje zavisnosti između
njihove molekulske i kristalne strukture., The analysis of structural features of new compounds comprising a rigid core with multiple donor and acceptor atoms can enhance our understanding of the interplay between
noncovalent interactions in building possible supramolecular assemblies. In this respect,
a series of new cyclopentane-5-spirohydantoin derivatives has been synthesized and their
crystal structures have been investigated (Figs. 1 and 2). Herein, the crystal structure of 3-
[(4-bromophenyl)methyl]-1,3-diazaspiro[4.4]nonane-2,4-dione is described and discussed. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic, centrosymmetric space group P21/n
with one molecule in the asymmetric unit. A detailed analysis of the crystal packing revealed the presence of usual N–H···O hydrogen bonds along with C–H···O, C–H···π and
C–H···Br interactions. Furthermore, a short C–Br···O=C contact also contributed to the
crystal packing. The stabilizing–destabilizing role of these interactions in terms of favorable energetic was quantified using the Coulomb–London–Pauli (CLP) method [1].
Supported with a survey of crystal structures containing the hydantoin moiety in the
Cambridge Structural Database, the decomposition of the interaction energies obtained for
different molecular pairs will provide a base for the evaluation of the relationships between
molecular and crystal structure of hydantoin derivatives.",

AB  - To complement a previous UV study, we present a quantitative evaluation of substituent effects on spectroscopic data (H-1 and C-13 NMR chemical shifts as well as FT-IR absorption frequency) applied to N, N'-bisarylmalonamides, using simple and extended Hammett equations as well as the Swain-Lupton equation. Furthermore, the DFT CAM-B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) method was applied to study the impact of different solvents on the geometry of the molecules and their spectral data. Additionally, experimental data are correlated with theoretical results; excellent linear dependence was obtained. The overall results presented in this paper show that N, N'-bisarylmalonamides are prominent candidates for model molecules.

AB  - Phenytoin (5,5-diphenylhydantoin), one of the most frequently used anticonvulsant and antiarrhythmic drugs, was examined and determined at bare gold electrode in 0.05 M NaHCO3 using its anodic activity by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV). Gold electrode is highly sensitive to the phenytoin concentration (the investigated level of concentrations is usually found in human serum of patients treated with phenytoin), providing linear relationships for a set of lower concentrations (0.5, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 mu mol dm(-3)) and for a set of higher concentrations (10, 20, 30, 40, 50 mu mol dm(-3)). The effects of the substituent on the phenyl rings on the electrochemical behavior of two derivatives, 5,5-di(4-chlorophenyl) hydantoin and 5,5-di(4-methylphenyl) hydantoin, were examined by CV. A computational study in correlation with the experimental voltammetric results enabled to propose the oxidation mechanisms: the investigated compounds undergo oxidation involving transfer of 1e(-) and 1 proton by irreversible, diffusion controlled process.

AB  - In this work, a combined experimental and theoretical study on the structures of methoxy substituted 5-phenylazo-3-cyano-1-ethyl-6-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pyridones has been reported. The dyes under the investigation have been thoroughly characterized. X-ray single-crystal analysis shows that 5-(4-methoxyphenylazo)-3-cyano-1-ethyl-6-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pyridone crystallizes in the hydrazone form. Quantum chemical calculations of energies, geometrical structure and vibrational wavenumbers of the investigated dyes have been performed using density functional theory. The optimized geometrical parameters obtained by density functional theory calculations are in good conformity with the single-crystal data. The fundamental vibrational wavenumbers, as well as their intensities have been calculated and a good agreement between observed and scaled calculated wavenumbers has been achieved. Stability of the molecule arising from hyperconjugative interactions and charge delocalization has been analyzed using natural bond orbital analysis. Vibrational, nuclear magnetic resonance and natural bond orbital analysis confirm that the prepared dyes exist in the hydrazone tautomeric form in the solid state and dimethyl sulfoxide solution.

abstract = "In this work, a combined experimental and theoretical study on the structures of methoxy substituted 5-phenylazo-3-cyano-1-ethyl-6-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pyridones has been reported. The dyes under the investigation have been thoroughly characterized. X-ray single-crystal analysis shows that 5-(4-methoxyphenylazo)-3-cyano-1-ethyl-6-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pyridone crystallizes in the hydrazone form. Quantum chemical calculations of energies, geometrical structure and vibrational wavenumbers of the investigated dyes have been performed using density functional theory. The optimized geometrical parameters obtained by density functional theory calculations are in good conformity with the single-crystal data. The fundamental vibrational wavenumbers, as well as their intensities have been calculated and a good agreement between observed and scaled calculated wavenumbers has been achieved. Stability of the molecule arising from hyperconjugative interactions and charge delocalization has been analyzed using natural bond orbital analysis. Vibrational, nuclear magnetic resonance and natural bond orbital analysis confirm that the prepared dyes exist in the hydrazone tautomeric form in the solid state and dimethyl sulfoxide solution.",

AB  - This study represents an integrated approach towards understanding the vibrational, electronic, NMR, and structural aspects, and reactivity of 1-(4-chloro-phenyl)-3-phenyl-succinimide (CPPS). A detailed interpretation of the FT-IR, UV and NMR spectra were reported. The equilibrium geometry, bonding features, and harmonic vibrational frequencies have been investigated with the help of density functional theory (DFT) B3LYP method using 6-31G(d,p) and 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. The scaled theoretical wave-number showed very good agreement with the experimental values. The H-1 and C-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shifts of the molecule were calculated by the Gauge-Invariant Atomic Orbital (GIAO) method. Stability of the molecule, arising from hyperconjugative interactions and charge delocalization, has been analyzed using Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) analysis. The results show that ED in the sigma* and pi* antibonding orbitals and second order delocalization energies E(2) confirm the occurrence of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) within the molecule. UV-Vis spectrum of the compound was recorded and the electronic properties, such as HOMO and LUMO energies, were calculated by Time-Dependent (TD-DFT) approach. To estimate chemical reactivity of the molecule, the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) surface map is calculated for the optimized geometry of the molecule.

AB  - The UV absorption spectra of ten N,N'-bisarylmalonamides have been recorded in the range 200-400 nm in a set of selected solvents. The solute-solvent interactions have been analyzed on the basis of the linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) concept proposed by Kamlet and Taft. The effects of substituents on the absorption spectra have been interpreted by correlating absorption frequencies with Hammett substituent constants. Furthermore, the experimental findings have been interpreted using the DFT CAM-B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) method. Electronic energies have been calculated using the same method in combination with the implicit solvation model (conductor-like polarizable continuum model, CPCM) as well as with the explicit addition of two molecules of solvent.
