EMMD - Electrochemistry, Molecular Materials and Devices

EMMD (Electrochemistry, Molecular Materials and Devices) research activities are devoted to molecular materials, from molecules to materials and from materials to devices. Electrochemical techniques are used to synthesize, to immobilize and to detect chemical or biological species. The synthetic aspect relates to the synthesis and functionalization of macrocycles (porphyrins, phthalocyanines…) and polymers. The analytical aspect 1) exploits the redox properties of compounds or sensitive layers (biomaterials, conducting polymers, charge-transfer complexes, …) for the characterization and the detection of biomolecules or chemical pollutants in sensor devices; 2) to apprehend reaction mechanism of molecular processes. Our projects are focused on applications in the fields of environment, health and food industry.

Current Topic research: Synthesis and study of biological activities of trans-resveratrol derivatives

Background
vervandier fasseur dominique fig01

- The presence of trans-resveratrol in our daily diet is well-known. Although this natural polyphenol offers a broad range of biological activities, we focus on the synthesis of trans-resveratrol derivatives in the aim to better target and to improve some of these biological properties.

Results – Three series of 4-hydroxystilbenes were prepared and their biological activities were evaluated towards cancer colon cells SW480, hepatic tumor cells (HepG2) and two pathogen agents grapevine Plasmora viticola and Botrytis cinerea.

In each series, several trans-resveratrol derivatives display a higher activity than the parent molecule towards tumor cells SW480 and HepG2 as well as pathogen agents grapevine

Prospect – The promising results of these biological assays prompt us to develop the synthesis of new stilbenes and to diversify their applications. Four major projects are planned:

  1. Improvment of Wittig reaction conditions respecting the best principles of Green Chemistry to obtain easier a broad library of compounds and therefore, to expand biological tests.
  2. Development of stilbenes bearing a ferrocenyl moiety in the aim to enhance therapeutic activities of these stilbenes. Study by electrochemical way of their behavior in cellular environment for a best understanding of implied biochemical mechanisms.
  3. Grafting modified stilbenes on metallic and mesoporous nanomaterials for medicinal and theranostic applications.
  4. 4) Synthesis and study of antioxidant activities of hybrid molecules resveratrol-fatty acid
