description: The leaves of Elaeagnus pungens were extracted and successively purified by a set chromatographic techniques. The structures of the obtained constituents were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic methods including 1D/2D NMR and high resolution-MS. One new flavonoid glycosides, kaempferol 3-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 6)-[α-l-rhamnopyranosyl(1 → 2)]-β-d-galactopyranoside-7-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (1), along with five known compounds (2–6) were isolated and identified. The MTT assay in vitro showed that the isolated flavonol glycosides have no proliferating activity, suggesting no aggravating impact on the increased airway smooth muscle cells.

description: Pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction is the most prevalent endocrine disease in horses. Although donkeys and mules may also be affected, only a few data have been published. Reference values for diagnostic parameters, such as adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), are especially scarce or even lacking. Therefore, in the present study, available data from the literature have been verified and completed to facilitate a reliable diagnosis. Clinical inspections and haematological and biochemical examinations were carried out four times in a three‐month interval (February to November) in 44 donkeys and 31 mules. Data from clinically healthy animals were used as an orientation. Plasma ACTH concentrations showed seasonal changes in both animal groups. However, it was generally higher in donkeys than mules. Although blood glucose (EDTA plasma) showed no difference between groups, serum insulin concentrations were consistently higher in donkeys. Serum fructosamine levels were slightly higher in mules, whereas, in some cases, serum triglyceride levels were considerably higher in donkeys. Serum gamma‐glutamyltransferase showed a striking peak in mules in August, whereas the remaining gamma‐glutamyltransferase values were lower compared to donkeys. By comparing donkeys and mules, the present work reveals differences in various blood parameters which should be considered for diagnoses and future studies.

description: Resilience, the ability to recover from adverse events, is of fundamental importance to food security. This is especially true in poor countries, where basic needs are frequently threatened by economic, environmental and health shocks. An empirically sound formalization of the concept of food security resilience, however, is lacking. Here, we introduce a general non-equilibrium framework for quantifying resilience based on the statistical notion of persistence. Our approach can be applied to any food security variable for which high-frequency time-series data are available. We illustrate our method with per capita kilocalorie availability for 161 countries between 1961 and 2011. We find that resilient countries are not necessarily those that are characterized by high levels or less volatile fluctuations of kilocalorie intake. Accordingly, food security policies and programmes will need to be tailored not only to welfare levels at any one time, but also to long-run welfare dynamics.

description: Beta-sitosterol (β-SITO), a phytosterol present in many edible vegetables, has been reported to possess antineoplastic properties and cancer treatment potential. We have shown previously that it binds at a unique site (the ‘SITO-site’) compared to the colchicine binding site at the interface of α- and β-tubulin. In this study, we investigated the anticancer efficacy of β-SITO against invasive breast carcinoma using MCF-7 cells. Since ‘isotypes’ of β-tubulin show tissue-specific expression and many are associated with cancer drug resistance, using computer-assisted docking and atomistic molecular dynamic simulations, we also examined its binding interactions to all known isotypes of β-tubulin in αβ-tubulin dimer. β-SITO inhibited MCF-7 cell viability by up to 50%, compared to vehicle-treated control cells. Indicating its antimetastatic potential, the phytosterol strongly inhibited cell migration. Immunofluorescence imaging of β-SITO-treated MCF-7 cells exhibited disruption of the microtubules and chromosome organization. Far-UV circular dichroism spectra indicated loss of helical stability in tubulin when bound to β-SITO. Docking and MD simulation studies, combined with MM-PBSA and MM-GBSA calculations revealed that β-SITO preferentially binds with specific β-tubulin isotypes (βII and βIII) in the αβ-tubulin dimer. Both these β-tubulin isotypes have been implicated in drug resistance against tubulin-targeted chemotherapeutics. Our data show the tubulin-targeted anticancer potential of β-SITO, and its potential clinical utility against βII and βIII isotype-overexpressing neoplasms.

description: Isoprenaline hydrochloride is a potential cardiovascular drug helps in the smooth functioning of the heart muscles. So, we have performed the binding study of ISO with BSA. This study was investigated by UV absorption, fluorescence, synchronous fluorescence, circular dichroism, etc. The analysis of intrinsic fluorescence data showed the low binding affinity of ISO. The binding constant Kb was 2.8 × 103 M-1 and binding stoichiometry (n) was approximately one and the Gibb’s free energy change at 310 K was determined to be -8.69 kcal mol−1. Negative Gibb’s free energy change shows the spontaneity of the BSA and ISO interaction. We have found ISO-induced alternation in the UV absorption, synchronous fluorescence and CD spectra in the absence and presence of the quencher indicates the complex formation. In synchronous fluorescence, red shift was obtained because of the complex formation of BSA and ISO. The distance (r) between the BSA (donor) and ISO (acceptor) was 2.89 nm, determined by FRET. DLS measurements interpreted complex formation due to the reduction in hydrodynamic radii of the protein in the presence of the drug. The binding site of ISO was found to be nearer to Trp 134 with the help of molecular docking and the ΔG° was found to be –10.2 kcal mol−1. The esterase activity result suggests that ISO acts as competitive inhibitor. Thus, this study would help to determine the binding capacity of the drug to the protein which may indicate the efficiency of diffusion of ISO into the blood for the treatment of heart diseases.

description: Most classical finite element schemes for the (Navier--)Stokes equations are neither pressure-robust, nor are they inf-sup stable on general anisotropic triangulations. A lack of pressure-robustness may lead to large velocity errors, whenever the Stokes momentum balance is dominated by a strong and complicated pressure gradient. It is a consequence of a method, which does not exactly satisfy the divergence constraint. However, inf-sup stable schemes can often be made pressure-robust just by a recent, modified discretization of the exterior forcing term, using H(div)-conforming velocity reconstruction operators. This approach has so far only been analyzed on shape-regular triangulations. The novelty of the present contribution is that the reconstruction approach for the Crouzeix--Raviart method, which has a stable Fortin operator on arbitrary meshes, is combined with results on the interpolation error on anisotropic elements for reconstruction operators of Raviart--Thomas and Brezzi--Douglas--Marini type, generalizing the method to a large class of anisotropic triangulations. Numerical examples confirm the theoretical results in a 2D and a 3D test case.

description: This study investigated young children’s emergent literacy practices, digital literacy skills, and their developing capacities to collaborate effectively, when supported by a literacy-learning iPad app, Aniland, in a preschool setting. I used a preschooler literacy app called Aniland, which I created with the Anilab team members and with which children can choose their own animal characters, read books, and play games. I also conducted optional, semi-structured interviews with teachers and parents. This study involved 29 children aged 3-4 years old, in a private preschool in Manhattan, New York, over a period of 10 weeks. With an ethnographic sensibility, I oversaw weekly interactions of 10-15 minutes between the children, as they used their iPads, to enrich my understanding of the cognitive and behavioural changes relevant to learning outcomes. In addition, to understand whether digital content may affect participants’ offline learning, I observed the children’s literacy activities in the classroom two or three times per week. I also conducted optional, semi-structured interviews with teachers and parents. For the data analysis, I applied a coding protocol to analyse the children’s learning outcomes in three dimensions: cognitive processing, social processing, and communication style adapted from the ‘analytical framework of peer group interaction’. The main findings of my study were as follows: (1) Children exhibited some improvements in literacy, including in graphemes, phonological awareness, phonemeto-grapheme correspondence, and orthographic knowledge, as they performed better over the observed time at selecting correct answers in the activity room; (2) children showed changes in social skills from dominance to collaboration and also showed instances of competition, tutoring, problem-solving, etc. over the observed time; and (3) children showed some connections between online and offline learning through extended play and conversations applying contents of the app in the classroom and, further, at home.

description: Being faced with unknown environments is a concomitant challenge of species' range expansions. Strategies to cope with this challenge include the adaptation to local conditions and a flexibility in resource exploitation. The gulls of the Larus argentatus-fuscus-cachinnans group form a system in which ecological flexibility might have enabled them to expand their range considerably, and to colonize urban environments. However, on a population level both flexibility and local adaptation lead to signatures of differential habitat use in different environments, and these processes are not easily distinguished. Using the lesser black-backed gull (Larus fuscus) as a system, we put both flexibility and local adaptation to a test. We compare habitat use between two spatially separated populations, and use a translocation experiment during which individuals were released into novel environment. The experiment revealed that on a population-level flexibility best explains the differences in habitat use between the two populations. We think that our results suggest that the range expansion and huge success of this species complex could be a result of its broad ecological niche and flexibility in the exploitation of resources. However, this also advises caution when using species distribution models to extrapolate habitat use across space.

description: Ten years after its enactment, and on the basis of substantial case law derived from the Court of Justice, on 30 June 2016 the Commission adopted a Recast Proposal of the Brussels IIa Regulation. The Proposal suggests amending the Brussels IIa Regulation in regards to several aspects, including the hearing of the child. The right of the child to be heard is acknowledged as a fundamental human right, as the European Court of Human Rights in the case Iglesias Casarrubios and Cantalapiedra Iglesias v. Spain of 11 October 2016 (no. 50811/10) emphasised. In the system of the Brussels IIa Regulation and of its Recast Proposal, this right plays a considerable role. This paper analyses the approach adopted by the Regulation and the amendments suggested by its Recast Proposal.

description: The role of antibody affinity in plasma cell (PC) differentiation from germinal centers (GCs) remains contested. Parallel studies by Sprumont et al. and Sutton and Gao et al. show that PCs emerging from GCs produce antibodies with a diverse range of affinities and lack signatures of affinity-based selection. Therefore, commitment to the PC lineage is affinity independent.

A study of microporous polymeric materials for electronic applications

description: In this thesis we look at two microporous polymer materials and their respective electronic properties. We firstly assess the electronic properties of pyrene-based conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs). The research revolves around the hypothesis that unique structures, called here ”molecular rings”, are the influencing factor of their luminescent properties. Here we showed that the introduction of a linear co-monomer greatly reduced the number of molecular rings observed in a pyrene-based CMP (S0). With this in mind, we designed two further materials, S1 and S2, that use non-linear comonomers (1,3-ibromobenezene and 1,2-dibromobenzene, respectively). These were computationally generated and subsequently synthesised. The rationalisation of the co-polymeric CMPs S1 and S2 demonstrated a rapid increase in molecular rings. The synthesised CMPs showed luminescence consistent with our computational predictions. Further investigation into the formation mechanism of these materials has led to an ”inference” technique that could be utilised for a qualitative assessment of the incorporation of monomers, and their electronic properties. The second set of materials studied the diffusive behaviour of the newly introduced OSPC-1 material as an anode for lithium ion batteries, and also as anodes for alternate ion batteries (sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium). We have also predicted a novel set of materials to expand upon the OSPC family. OSPC-0 introduces a carbon framework with reduced sp3-sp3 node distances, whereas OSPC-2 and OSPC3 have increasing sp3-sp3 node distances (node-to-node distance: OSPC-0 < OSPC-1 < OSPC-2 < OSPC-3). Overall, the active diffusion rate of lithium ions increased with an increase of node-to-node distance. However, the trend established for the ions is more complex, with the active diffusion rate being determined by a combination of ionic radius and node-to-node distance.
title: Contemporary Arab women's life writing and the politics of resistance
title: literary modes and postcolonial contexts
titleType: Subtitle
Creators: name: Cheurfa, Hiyem
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2020

description: This thesis argues for a reinvigorated postcolonial understanding of contemporary Arab women’s autobiographical writing as part of a revolutionary and dissident culture. It argues that contemporary Arab women’s life writing is a site of cultural resistance through which autobiographical subjects engage with, question, negotiate, and attempt to destabilise dominant social, political, and representational discourses. It uniquely interrogates the interplay of power, gender, and resistance, in life narratives of national struggle by politically committed Arab women across different linguistic (Arabophone, Francophone, Anglophone) and national contexts (Egypt, Algeria, Syria, Palestine, Tunisia). It considers why resistance is important when writing about the self for Arab women and ways in which dissent is articulated through the genre. The thesis combines postcolonial theory and feminist autobiographical criticism in order to trace a range of formal, thematic, and representational modalities used to articulate dissent to intersectional structures of power to which contemporary Arab women are subjected in contexts of political conflict, including state/colonial hegemony, social pressure, patriarchy, and cultural/representational silencing. Each chapter examines a specific thematic and/or formal strategy of life writing: bricolage (Chapter One); transborder testimony (Chapter Two), resilient humour (Chapter Three), and digital dissidence (Chapter Four), as manifested in autobiographical forms of memoir, auto-portrait, testimony, diary, and online life writing. The overarching purpose is to investigate ways in which authors experiment with the conventions of the genre in order to rewrite mainstream narratives of national struggle and to enact Arab women’s active involvement in the public sphere and during revolutionary moments.

description: This is a list of labels assigned by Google Vision API to a set of 10,000 images retrieved from Instagram using museum hashtags. First, we employed computer vision techniques through the Google Cloud Platform Vision API. An object recognition algorithm returned at most ten tags for each image, for instance ‘Pyramid’, ‘Illustration’, ‘Person’, etc. Second, we trained a machine learning algorithm (word2vec) on all image tags to compute their semantic similarity. Looking at the output we then identified clusters of similar words, which correspond to similar contents in the images: body, food, clothes, music, nature, interior, architecture, museum, animals, sport. Third, we edited these data-driven categories and combined them with top-down art categories relevant for museum research, creating the following final list of image types: art exhibition (e.g. performances, events, and graphics), artifact (e.g. sculptures, paintings, and pottery), architecture (e.g. buildings, or parts of them, and indoor spaces), selfie (e.g. faces), food, human body (e.g. non-face body parts and people), landscape (e.g. outdoor spaces and nature). Fourth, in order to maximize the number of tags retrieved for each of the categories, we trained word2vec models separately on the tags’ subsets of 8 different museums and retrieved the 50 most similar tags for each category. We then manually checked all lists to make sure that they include only tags relevant for the respective categories, to resolve overlaps between categories, and to delete ambiguous tags. This list can be used in combination with Google Vision API to easily categorize images.

title: implications for publicly funded arts and cultural organisations in England
titleType: Subtitle
Creators: name: Butterworth, Christian
Publisher: name: Lancaster University

description: In this thesis, I examine organisational responses to data-centric policy changes in publicly funded arts and cultural organisations in England (ACOs). This research examines a period of time (2015–16) when ACOs were implementing Arts Council England’s (ACE) requirements to share audience data and engage with data analysis tools, the aim of which was to promote a ‘healthy and competitive sector’ and ensure that ‘more and more people up and down the country enjoy great art and culture’ (Arts Council England, 2015, p.15). This data sharing policy (DSP) sits within the context of a big data discourse in the arts and cultural sector to promote ‘data-driven decision-making’ (Lilley and Moore, 2013), leading to the emergence of an arts ‘data culture’ (Arvanitis et al., 2016). This research takes an interdisciplinary approach, drawing principally on arts management and organisation theory, and employs empirical evidence collected through semi-structured interviews with senior managers in the publicly funded arts and cultural sector. Analysis of the data highlights four key insights relating to the work of arts managers in the context of implementing ACE’s data sharing policy and the wider ‘datafication’ of the arts and cultural sector. First, the emergence of an arts data culture is the product of long-standing data subcultures1 gaining prominence following greater dialogue, opportunities, and policy pressures for ACOs to utilise data effectively across their organisational decision making. Second, while some arts managers are proficient in ‘data-centric’ practices, there remains a significant gap in data literacy and data handling sensitivity among a number of arts managers working in the sector. Third, the new-found emphasis on data-driven decision making challenges arts managers’ perceptions of their own professional identity and sense of agency as leaders of artistic organisations when making artistic decisions, as their experience and tacit knowledge may hold less weight than the objective ‘facts’ provided by data. Finally, ACE’s data sharing policy challenges arts managers’ and their organisations’ ability to satisfy the opposing legitimacy requirements of the multiple actors they are accountable to, leaving them ‘stuck in the middle’ of policy requirements.

description: Live-cube compact storage systems realize high storage space utilization and high throughput, due to full automation and independent movements of unit loads in three-dimensional space. Applying an optimal two-class-based storage policy where high-turnover products are stored at locations closer to the Input/Output point significantly reduces the response time. Live-cube systems are used in various sectors, such as warehouses and distribution centers, parking systems, and container yards. The system stores unit loads, such as pallets, cars, or containers, multi-deep at multiple levels of storage grids. Each unit load is located on its own shuttle. Shuttles move unit loads at each level in the x and y directions, with a lift taking care of the movement in the z-direction. Movement of a requested unit load to the lift location is comparable to solving a Sam Loyd's puzzle game where 15 numbered tiles move in a 4 × 4 grid. However, with multiple empty locations, a virtual aisle can be created to shorten the retrieval time for a requested unit load. In this article, we optimize the dimensions and zone boundary of a two-class live-cube compact storage system leading to a minimum response time. We propose a mixed-integer nonlinear model that consists of 36 sub-cases, each representing a specific configuration and first zone boundary. Properties of the optimal system are used to simplify the model without losing any optimality. The overall optimal solutions are then obtained by solving the remaining sub-cases. Although the solution procedure is tedious, we eventually obtain two sets of closed-form expressions for the optimal system dimensions and first zone boundary for any desired system size. In addition, we propose an algorithm to obtain the optimal first zone boundary for situations where the optimal system dimensions cannot be achieved. To test the effectiveness of optimal system dimensions and first zone boundary on the performance of a two-class-based live-cube system, we perform a sensitivity analysis by varying the ABC curve, system size, first zone size, and shape factor. The results show that for most cases an optimal two-class-based storage outperforms random storage, with up to 45% shorter expected retrieval time.
Scalable Quantum Computing with Two-Dimensional Arrays of Trapped Ions Enabled by Fast Gates

description: Realising large-scale quantum computation in the near future will require increasing the number of low-error two-qubit gates that can be implemented on a quantum computer before decoherence. One of the biggest challenges facing current trapped ion quantum computers is implementing high-speed two-qubit operations, whilst increasing the number of qubits. One of the most promising proposals for overcoming current limitations is the use of ultra-fast pulses to implement fast two-qubit gates between nearest-neighbour pairs of ions. In this thesis, I investigate these ‘fast gates’ in two-dimensional arrays of microtraps, each containing a single ion. I argue that two-dimensional architectures allow for a significant reduction in the number of two-qubit gates required for a particular computation, as compared to one-dimensional ion chains. I demonstrate this reduction for a quantum simulation of a 40-mode Fermi-Hubbard Hamiltonian. I develop an efficient scheme that allows fast gates to be numerically optimised for two-dimensional geometries. I find that this optimisation scheme is capable of designing gates that are faster, higher fidelity, and require lower laser repetition rates. Using this scheme, I find that high-speed two-qubit gates can be optimised for two-dimensional architectures, with fidelities well above thresholds required for fault tolerant error correction, around 99.99%. Furthermore, I find that fast gates in these architectures are robust to the presence of large numbers of surrounding ions. Following previous studies [1, 2] which have identified pulse imperfections as a dominant source of error in fast gates, I perform a worst-case error analysis. I find the fast gates presented in this thesis to require very small errors in single-qubit rotations, and I present recommendations for achieving those requirements. I also investigate other experimental considerations, and make recommendations for overcoming other technical challenges in realising fast gates.

description: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a high-prevalence and progressive disorder. Due to lack of reliable in vitro models to recapitulate the consecutive phases, the exact pathogenesis mechanism of this disease and approved therapeutic medications have not been revealed yet. It has been proven that the interplay between multiple hepatic cell types and liver extracellular matrix (ECM) are critical in NAFLD initiation and progression. Herein, a liver microtissue (LMT) consisting of Huh-7, THP-1, and LX-2 cell lines and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), which could be substituted for the main hepatic cells (hepatocyte, Kupffer, stellate, and sinusoidal endothelium, respectively), encapsulated in liver derived ECM-Alginate composite, was bioengineered. When the microtissues were treated with free fatty acids (FFAs) including Oleic acid (6.6×10−4M) and Palmitic acid (3.3×10−4M), they displayed the key features of NAFLD, including similar pattern of transcripts for genes involved in lipid metabolism, inflammation, insulin-resistance, and fibrosis, as well as pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic cytokines’ secretions and intracellular lipid accumulation. Continuing FFAs supplementation, we demonstrated that the NAFLD phenomenon was established on day 3 and progressed to the initial fibrosis stage by day 8. Furthermore, this model was stable until day 12 post FFAs withdrawal on day 3. Moreover, administration of an anti-steatotic drug candidate, Liraglutide (15 μM), on the NAFLD microtissues significantly ameliorated the NAFLD phenomenon. Overall, we bioengineered a drug-responsive, cost-benefit liver microtissues which can simulate the initiation and progression of NAFLD. It is expected that this platform could potentially be used for studying molecular pathogenesis of NAFLD and high-throughput drug screening.

description: Live-cube compact storage systems realize high storage space utilization and high throughput due to full automation and independent movements of unit loads in 3-dimensional space. Applying an optimal two-class-based storage policy where high turnover products are stored at locations closer to the Input/Output point reduces the response time significantly. Live-cube systems are used in various sectors such as warehouses and distribution centers, parking systems, and container yards. The system stores unit loads such as pallets, cars, or containers multi-deep at multiple levels of storage grids. Each unit load is located on its own shuttle. Shuttles move unit loads at each level in x and y directions while a lift takes care of the movement in z direction. Movement of a requested unit load to the lift location is comparable to solving a Sam Loyd's puzzle game where 15 numbered tiles move in a 4×4 grid. However, with multiple empty locations a virtual aisle can be created to shorten the retrieval time for a requested unit load. In this paper, we optimize the dimensions and zone boundary of a two-class live-cube compact storage system leading to minimum response time. We propose a mixed-integer nonlinear model which consists of 36 sub-cases each representing a specific configuration and first zone boundary. Properties of the optimal system are used to simplify the model without losing any optimality. The overall optimal solutions are then obtained by solving the remaining sub-cases. Although the solution procedure is tedious, we eventually obtain two sets of closed-form expressions for the optimal system dimensions and first zone boundary for any desired system size. In addition, we propose an algorithm to obtain the optimal first zone boundary for situations where the optimal system dimensions cannot be achieved. To test the effectiveness of optimal system dimensions and first zone boundary on the performance of a two-class-based live-cube system, we perform a sensitivity analysis by varying the ABC curve, system size, first zone size, and shape factor. The results show that for most cases an optimal two-class-based storage outperforms random storage, with up to 45% shorter expected retrieval time.

Kindheit – zwischen Biographie und Märchen: Goethes Der Neue Paris. Knabenmärchen im Kontext von Dichtung und Wahrheit

description: In Goethes Autobiographie Dichtung und Wahrheit werden Faktizität und Fiktionalität artistisch miteinander in Spiel gebracht. Der Neue Paris. Knabenmärchen ist der erste literarische Text darin. Er ist aber sowohl textuell als auch konnotativ eng mit den biographischen Erzählungen in seinem Kontext verknüpft. Es bildet den Kulminationspunkt Goethes Spiels mit Faktizität und Fiktionalität in der Autobiographie. Der Neue Paris. Knabenmärchen weist ein Spektrum von unterschiedlichen kulturellen Elementen auf. Die griechisch-mythologische Paris-Geschichte ist darin paraphrasiert. Viele einzelne Objektbilder ähneln denjenigen in der arabischen Märchensammlung 1001 Nacht; motivisch greift das Märchen noch auf das erloschene französische Genre des Feenmärchens zurück. Als ein Kunstmärchen nimmt es zugleich viele Volksmärchenmotive auf. Das klassische Volksmärchenschema vom Erlösungsmärchen ist ebenso ersichtlich. Die vorliegende Arbeit wird vom Thema Kindheit ausgegangen. Unter Einbeziehung von Goethes Farbenlehre und dem Kontext der Autobiographie wird Der Neue Paris in der vorliegenden Arbeit in Bezug auf Farbe, Klang und Form analysiert, um die von Goethe in Form des Märchens ‚entdeckte‘ Pubertät des Knaben zu untersuchen. Zudem wird das Grundmuster des Knabenmärchens – das Puppenspiel und das sowohl im Neuen Paris als auch in den Kindheitsbeschreibungen in Dichtung und Wahrheit mehrfach dargestellte Rollenspiel – betrachtet, um die Kindheit zwischen dem Knabenmärchen und der Autobiographie weiter zu beleuchten.

description: The synthesis of new 2-pyrone-based hydrazones has been prepared by the coupling of 6-methyl-2H-furo[3,2-c]pyran-3,4-dione with diazonium salts, obtained by diazotization of aniline derivatives. The structure of all compounds was established by spectroscopic methods, and the structure of the more stable conformer was theoretically confirmed by the potential energy profile analysis. The prepared 2-pyrone-based hydrazone dyes were acetylated and both groups of compounds showed moderate to good radical scavenging activity.
