    Synthesis and Topoisomerase I Inhibitory Properties of Klavuzon Derivatives
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Akçok, İsmail; Mete, Derya; Şen, Ayhan; Kasaplar, Pınar; Korkmaz, Kemal S.; Çağır, Ali
    Klavuzon is a naphthalen-1-yl substituted α,β-unsaturated δ-lactone derivative, and is one of the anti-proliferative members of this class of compounds. Asymmetric and racemic syntheses of novel α,β-unsaturated δ-lactone derivatives are important to investigate their potential for the treatment of cancer. In this study, asymmetric and racemic syntheses of heteroatom-substituted klavuzon derivatives are reported. The syntheses were completed by a well-known three-step procedure. Anti-proliferative activity of seven novel racemic klavuzon derivatives were reported against MCF-7, PC3, HCT116 p53+/+ and HCT116 p53−/− cancer cell lines. Topoisomerase I inhibitory properties of 5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-one derivatives were also studied. © 2017 Elsevier Inc.

    Rhodamine-Immobilised Electrospun Chitosan Nanofibrous Material as a Fluorescence Turn-On Hg2+ Sensor
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2016) Horzum, Nesrin; Mete, Derya; Karakuş, Erman; Üçüncü, Muhammed; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; Demir, Mustafa Muammer
    A turn-on fluorescence sensing system for mercuric (Hg2+) ions relying on a modified rhodamine B–chitosan fluorophore moiety was developed. This novel sensing approach relies on the simultaneous electrospinning of chitosan and rhodamine B hydrazide with phenylisothiocyanate functionality in hexafluoroisopropanol solution at 3.4 kV cm−1. The electrospun mats exhibited not only considerably enhanced fluorescence intensity in the presence of mercury ions, a result attributed to the ring opening of the spirolactam unit of the rhodamine-based fluorophore, but also a remarkably high sensitivity and selectivity toward Hg2+. In effect, the strategy has the potential to open new avenues in the design and development of other high-performance nanofibrous sensing materials for detecting target metal species of environmental interest.
