Quinones are widespread in nature, as they participate, mainly as redox mediators, in several biochemical processes. Up to now, various synthetic quinones have been recommended in the literature as leading molecules in energy, biomedical and catalytic fields. In this brief review, we retraced our research activity in the last ten years, mainly dedicated to the study of a new class of peculiar pentacyclic conjugated quinoid compounds, synthesized in our group. In particular, their application as sensitive materials in photoelectrochemical devices and in biosensors, as photocatalysts in selective oxidation reactions, and their anticancer activity is here reviewed.
醌类在自然界中广泛存在，因为它们主要作为氧化还原介质参与多种生化过程。到目前为止，文献中已推荐了各种合成醌类作为能源、生物医学和催化领域的主导分子。在这篇简短的综述中，我们回顾了过去十年的研究活动，主要致力于研究我们小组合成的一类新型特殊的五环共轭醌类化合物。特别地，本文综述了它们作为光电器件和生物传感器中的敏感材料、选择性氧化反应中的光催化剂的应用以及它们的抗癌活性。
