RESUMEN
We present an enhanced method for synthesizing a novel compound, 1-(4-phenylquinolin-2-yl)propan-1-one (3), through the solvent-free Friedländer quinoline synthesis using poly(phosphoric acid) as an assisting agent. The crystal structure of compound 3 is analyzed using FT-IR, and the chemical shifts of its 1H- and 13C NMR spectra are measured and calculated using B3LYP/6-311G(d,p), CAM-B3LYP/6-311G(d,p), and M06-2X/6-311G(d,p) basis sets in the gas phase. Additionally, the optimized geometry of quinoline 3 is compared with experimental X-ray diffraction values. Through density functional theory calculations, we explore various aspects of the compound's properties, including noncovalent interactions, Hirshfeld surface analysis, nonlinear optical properties, thermodynamic properties, molecular electrostatic potential, and frontier molecular orbitals. These investigations reveal chemically active sites within this quinoline derivative that contribute to its chemical reactivity.
RESUMEN
In many ways, cancer cells are different from healthy cells. A lot of tactical nano-based drug delivery systems are based on the difference between cancer and healthy cells. Currently, nanotechnology-based delivery systems are the most promising tool to deliver DNA-based products to cancer cells. This review aims to highlight the latest development in the lipids and polymeric nanocarrier for siRNA delivery to the cancer cells. It also provides the necessary information about siRNA development and its mechanism of action. Overall, this review gives us a clear picture of lipid and polymer-based drug delivery systems, which in the future could form the base to translate the basic siRNA biology into siRNA-based cancer therapies.
