In this study, we report the synthesis of three quinolone bearing imidazole derivatives 2, 3 and 4 and two quinolone bearing BODIPY dyes 5 and 7. In the synthesis of 2, 3 and 4, the first step was the preparation of the starting compound 2-chloro-3-formyl quinoline (1); the Vilsmeier-Haack cyclisation protocol was used. Compound 1 was used with the appropriate diamine, together with POCl3 to produce 2, 3 and 4. These compounds were characterized by IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR. In the synthesis of 5, compound 1 was used whilst 6 was used for the synthesis of 7. This was via. a one-pot synthesis using conventional reflux apparatus and Schlenk technique. These compounds were characterized by IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR. Four other BODIPY dyes were also synthesized but their purification by column chromatography were unsuccessful. However a HPLC method was developed using 2 as a model; the best eluting solvent was 65 % methanol. After synthesis, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7 were used for spectroscopic studies by UV-visible and fluorescence spectroscopy. In the UV-visible studies, 2, 3 and 4 were dissolved, separately, in five solvent viz. ethanol, methanol, dichloromethane, chloroform and acetonitrile. The UV profile of each compound was obtained and the maximum absorbance was then used for fluorescence studies. In the fluorescence studies, all the compounds displayed a fluorescence nature when excited with the various wavelengths. The fluorescence properties, namely Stoke shift, quantum yield, life time, molar absorptivity and brightness, were investigated to establish the properties of each compound in all five solvent systems. The Stoke shift was evident in all compounds and the quantum yields were below one which indicates no other electron transfer mechanisms occurring. The results displayed a favorable response and this further lead to analysis of the synthesized compounds for it potential application as a chemosensor. Eight metal ions were used to investigate this property. All eight metal ions, when reacted with the synthesized compounds, as ligands, showed chemosensor properties, viz. photon induced electron transfer, inter-molecular charge transfer and fluorescence resonance electron transfer, as a quenching and enhancement of emission and excitation peaks were observed. The compounds were further investigated for its potential for its use as a photovoltaic cells. The energies of the compounds were obtained from the analyses of the reflectance and transmission spectra. It was found that the synthesized compounds displayed properties which were positive for its use as a photovoltaic cell. Biological analyses using molecular docking analyses and MTT assays were conducted to determine the use of these as an anti-cancer drug. Compounds 2 and 3 formed hydrogen bonds with GLU 25 and LEU 27, respectively with MDM2-p53 proteins. Following the molecular docking studies, the MTT assay was performed on all five synthesized compounds. The BODIPYs with the quinoline moieties demonstrated a reduction in the rate of A549 cell proliferation when compared to the imidazole and benzimidazoles; this was observed for compounds 5 and 7. Further, a comparison between imidazoles clearly shows that compounds 3 and 4 also decreased cell proliferation. In contrast compound 2 exhibited an increased rate of cell proliferation. The optical density of the control cell, is much higher that the plates for concentration 31.25 µg/ mL to 500 µg/ mL. However 2 cannot be discarded; this compound clearly shows that it possesses anti-hyperglycaemic properties and further studies are recommended.

The development of video-enhanced light microscopy (LM) as well as associated image processing and analysis have significantly broadened the scope of investigations which can be undertaken using (LM). Interference/polarization based microscopies can provide high resolution and higher levels of “detectability” especially in unstained living systems. Confocal light microscopy also holds the promise of further improvements in resolution, fluorescence studies, and 3 dimensional reconstruction. Video technology now provides, among other things, a means to detect differences in contrast difficult to detect with the human eye; furthermore, computerized image capture, processing, and analysis can be used to enhance features of interest, average images, subtract background, and provide a quantitative basis to studies of cells, cell features, cell labelling, and so forth. Improvements in video technology, image capture, and cost-effective computer image analysis/processing have contributed to the utility and potential of the various interference and confocal microscopic instrumentation.Electron microscopic technology has made advances as well. Microprocessor control and improved design have contributed to high resolution SEMs which have imaging capability at the molecular level and can operate at a range of accelerating voltages starting at 1KV. Improvements have also been seen in the HVEM and IVEM transmission instruments. As a whole, these advances in LM and EM microscopic technology provide the biologist with an array of information on structure, composition, and function which can be obtained from a single specimen. Corrrelative light microscopic analysis permits examination of living specimens and is critical where the “history” of a cell, cellular components, or labels needs to be known up to the time of chemical or physical fixation. Features such as cytoskeletal elements or gold label as small as 0.01 μm, well below the 0.2 μm limits of LM resolution, can be “detected” and their movement followed by VDIC-LM. Appropriate identification and preparation can then lead to the examination of surface detail and surface label with stereo LV-HR-SEM. Increasing the KV in the HR-SEM while viewing uncoated or thinly coated specimens can provide information from beneath the surface as well as increasing Z contrast so that positive identification of surface and subsurface colloidal gold or other heavy metal labelled/stained material is possible. Further examination of the same cells using stereo HVEM or IVEM provides information on internal ultrastructure and on the relationship of labelled material to cytoskeletal or organellar distribution, A wide variety of investigations can benefit from this correlative approach and a number of instrumentational configurations and preparative pathways can be tailored for the particular study. For a surprisingly small investment in time and technique, it is often possible to clear ambiguities or questions that arise when a finding is presented in the context of only one modality.
