7-R-9-ethyl-6,9-dihydro-6-oxo-[1,2,5]selenadiazolo[3,4-h]quinolines and 6-ethyl-6,9-dihydro-9-oxo-[1,2,5]selenadiazolo[3,4-f]quinoline were synthesized and characterized by UV/vis, FT-IR and fluorescence spectroscopy; the generation of superoxide radical anions and singlet oxygen was monitored by electron paramagnetic resonance spin trapping technique and sterically hindered amine oxidation.
- The geometry and electronic structure of Aristolochic acid: possible implications for a frozen resonance (pages 473–483)

The electronic structure of Aristolochic acid (AA1) has been elucidated using the aug-cc-pVDZ level of theory, resulting in a potentially trapped resonance at the ring A which causes a localized electronic distribution, differentiating the first from the two other rings of the phenanthrene moiety of AA1. This property can play a significant role in its transformation pathways in biochemical and toxicological settings.
