New heterocyclic compound (S)-3-(4-(5-bromo-2-chlorobenzyl)phenoxy)tetrahydrofuran (1), designed by utilizing 5-bromo-2-chlorobenzoic acid (2) as the starting material, is obtained by the organic synthesis and then characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography, 1H NMR and IR spectroscopy. In the biological study, the CCK-8 assay is performed to evaluate the inhibitory effect of the compound on SPC-A-1 human lung adenocarcinoma cells in vitro by measuring the cancer cell viability. Then, the anticancer activity of the compound is also confirmed by the in vivo xenograft experiment by measuring the mice body weight and the cancer volume. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The structural characteristics of Bi2-xPbxSr2CaCu2O8+y(Bi-2212) and Bi2-xPbxSr2Ca2Cu3O10+y(Bi-2223) with x changing from 0 to 0.8 were studied by X-ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement. By careful calculation of chemical bond lengths and angles, it is found that there exists a fixed triangle on the Cu–O planes in the two systems, and then makes the Cu–O planes stable. The fluctuations of this fixed triangle were investigated, and it is found that there is a close relationship between it and Tc's. In addition, we discussed the origin of this special local structure. It may be caused by the interaction between the perovskite block and the rock salt block in a unit cell, which may play an important role in the mechanism of high temperature superconductivity.
