This paper presents the synthesis and characterization of two series of new bis-quinolin curcuminoid BF2-complexes 11 and their respective decomplexed bis-quinolin curcuminoid derivatives 12, in an attempt to understand their optical properties. The synthesized compounds showed interesting fluorescent characteristics in both solution and in solid-state. The characteristic of the electronic transitions involved in these systems were measured via Uv-vis spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy. Results revealed that the absorption and emission bands are dependent of the structure of compounds 11 and 12 but also of the type of substituent, even showing a push-pull behavior in those derivatives substituted with methyl group. These findings were also confirmed through computational calculations at DFT level via simulations of the Uv-vis spectra and determining the topology of the border orbitals responsible for light absorption.

Fifteen 2-quinolone thiosemicarbazone derivatives of which eleven were new, were synthesized at room temperature. The key intermediate was the quinolone carbaldehyde, from which thiosemicarbazones were formed by the reaction of thiosemicarbazides with the aldehyde moiety. The structures of the synthesized compounds were elucidated by 1D and 2D-NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The synthesized compounds showed antibacterial activity with MBCs in the range 0.80 to 36.49 mM against Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus aureus Rosenbach (MRSA), Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium. The best activity was seen when a larger halogen such as chlorine and bromine were substituted at C-6 on the quinolone scaffold and when a planar phenyl group was present on the thiosemicarbazone moiety. Activity was reduced when a smaller fluorine atom was present at C-6 or when a methyl group was attached to the thiosemicarbazone. This group of compounds showed a high negative binding affinity, which suggested promising antimcrobial activity. The 6-chloro derivative with a phenyl group on the thiosemicarbazone had the greatest negative binding affinity.

Novel tetrahydro-5H-benzo[e][1,4]diazepin-5-ones, several of them, containing the quinoline pharmacophore, were synthesized via a Schmidt rearrangement from their corresponding 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4-quinolones mediated by the NaN3/H2SO4 reaction conditions. Twelve of the obtained compounds were in vitro screened by the US National Cancer Institute (NCI) for their ability to inhibit 60 different human tumor cell lines, where compound 24a presented a remarkable activity against 58 of the 60 cancer cell lines, with the most important GI50 values ranging from 0.047 to 8.16 μM and LC50 values ranging from 9.4 to > 100 μM. Additionally, some of them were evaluated as antimalarial, antitrypanosomal and antileishmanial agents. The best antimalarial response was observed for compound 22g with an EC50 = 13.61 μg/mL for Plasmodium falciparum, while compound 24d exhibited high activity against Trypanosoma cruzi. and Leishmania (V) panamensis with EC50 = 2.78 μg/mL and 3.35 μg/mL respectively.
