Abstract
In this study, a method for degrading PET-waste plastic bottles using ZnCl2:Urea as a catalyst was developed, resulting in high conversion (87%). The terephthalic acid obtained from the degradation of Waste PET Bottles (WPTs) was combined with copper and zinc salts to synthesize bimetallic metal-organic frameworks (MOF). The effectiveness of a bimetallic Cu-Zn(BDC)-MOF in catalyzing the reduction reaction of organic pollutant dyes (OPDs) was investigated, and the degradation efficiency of individual dyes was optimized, achieving over 95% degradation within 6-12 min under optimal conditions. Various techniques, including FT-IR, XRD, FE-SEM, EDS, and TEM were used to characterize the synthesized MOF. Results showed that the catalytic activity of Cu-Zn-MOF in reduction reaction of OPDs was enhanced by increasing the copper content. The reaction kinetics were investigated following pseudo-first-order kinetics with rate constants of 0.581, 0.43, 0.37, and 0.30 min-1 for Methylene Blue (MB), Methyl Orange (MO), 4-Nitrophenol (4-NP), and 4-Nitroaniline (4-NA), respectively. The investigations revealed that the produced catalyst exhibited excellent stability and recoverability, while its activity remained well-preserved even after undergoing three reuse cycles.

Abstract
Background:
Chromene and anilinopyrimidine heterocyclics are attractive anticancer
compounds that have inspired many researchers to design novel derivatives bearing improved anticancer
activity.
Methods:
A series of pyrimidine-fused benzo[f]chromene derivatives 6a-x were synthesized as
anticancer hybrids of 1H-benzo[f]chromenes and anilinopyrimidines. The inhibitory activity of the
synthesized compounds 6a-x against cell viability of human chronic myelogenous leukemia
(K562), human acute lymphoblastic leukemia (MOLT-4) and human breast adenocarcinoma
(MCF-7) cell lines was evaluated using MTT assay. The interaction of the most promising compound
with calf-thymus DNA was also studied using spectrometric titrations and Circular Dichroism
(CD) spectroscopy.
Results:
Most compounds showed promising activity against tested cell lines. Among them, 2,4-
dimethoxyanilino derivative 6g exhibited the best profile of activity against tested cell lines
(IC50s = 1.6-6.1 μM) with no toxicity against NIH3T3 normal cell (IC50 >200 μM). The spectrometric
studies exhibited that compound 6g binds to DNA strongly and may change DNA conformation
significantly, presumably via a groove binding mechanism.
Conclusion:
The results of this study suggest that the prototype compound 6g can be considered as
a novel lead compound for the design and discovery of novel anticancer agents.
