A series of compounds 1-11 with different side chains of naphthalimide as fluorescent copper sensors were designed and synthesized. Compounds 1, 9, 10 and 11 presented a high selectivity to Cu2+ in a neutral aqueous environment. Here 1, 9 and 10 showed selectivity and affinity to Cu2+ with an association constant of about ～106. It gave somewhat response to Ag+, Co2+, Ni2+ and Fe2+ while 1 detected copper. 9 and 10 displayed better selectivity by changing their hydrophobic side chains to the hydrophilic ones on imide moieties. 11, with one flexible side chain, showed high selectivity and an association constant (Ka = 2.2 × 108), which were much higher than those of 1, 9 and 10. These results indicated that the selectivity and affinity could be improved by changing side chains of naphthalimide. That might provide a novel strategy or method for the development of fluorescent sensors.
A series of 2,4,5-triaryl substituted 1H-pyrazol-3（2H）-ones,as ALK5 inhibitors,were desigened,synthesized and evaluated in vitro.Most compounds exhibited noticeable ALK5 inhibition activities at 1μmol/L and displayed no significant cytotoxicities at 30μmol/L.

The difluoromethyl-containing Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridines were synthesized in good yields by a one-pot cyclocondensation of ethyl difluoroacetoacetate (EDFAA),a variety of aromatic aldehydes and ammonium acetate under solvent and catalyst free conditions.The comparison of reaction conditions and products was made among the different 1,3-carbonyl substrates (ethyl acetoacetate,ethyl difluoroacetoacetate and ethyl trifluoroacetoacetate) for the Hantzsch reaction.
