The highest concentration of compound was 200 \u00b5M where compounds were soluble in DMSO at 10 mM.

Our initial target was to obtain both the phenanthrolinium monoquaternary salts (<b>1- 8)<\/b> and diquaternary salts (<b>9-16<\/b>). No matter the conditions we employed in terms of molar ratio (1:2.2; 1:5; 1:7) and reaction conditions (solvents, temperature), only phenanthrolinium mono salts, <b>1- 8<\/b>, have been obtained. A reasonable explanation for this behaviour could be related to the basicity of <i>N<sub>1<\/sub><\/i>-nitrogen atom: after the <i>N<sub>7<\/sub><\/i>-alkylation of 1,7-phenanthroline, in the obtained phenanthrolinium mono salts the basicity of <i>N<sub>1<\/sub><\/i>-nitrogen decreases so much that a second alkylation could not take place.<br \/>\nThe structure of compounds was assigned by elemental and spectroscopic analysis: IR, <sup>1<\/sup>H NMR, <sup>13<\/sup>C NMR, COSY, HMQC and HMBC. Thus, the most important data furnished by <sup>1<\/sup>H NMR spectra are the following: the signals for methylene protons H<sub>15<\/sub> from compounds <b>1<\/b>&#8211; <b>6<\/b> appear at low field (7.10 \u2013 7.25 ppm, singlet), according with the substituent from the <i>para<\/i> position of the benzoyl ring. The same protons appear more shielded (5.95 ppm respectively 6.31 ppm) for compounds <b>7<\/b> and <b>8<\/b>, due to the weaker withdrawing effect of the adjacent carbonyl amide and ester groups. In the aromatic region, the most unshielded protons are H<sub>10<\/sub> (10.31-10.41 ppm), which are involved in an intramolecular hydrogen bond with atom N<sub>1<\/sub>, followed by H<sub>8<\/sub> (9.57-9.69 ppm) situated in the proximity of the positive nitrogen N<sub>7<\/sub>. In the <sup>1<\/sup>H NMR spectra of compound <b>7<\/b>, the two amide protons (NH<sub>2<\/sub>) furnished two singlet signals at 7.87 and 8.19 ppm, respectively, while in the spectrum of compound <b>8<\/b>, the methyl ester protons appear as a singlet at 3.81 ppm. \u00a0In the <sup>13<\/sup>C NMR spectra, the most important data are furnished by the signals corresponding to the C<sub>16<\/sub> (carbonyl) and C<sub>15 <\/sub>(methylene)atoms. Thus, for compounds <b>1<\/b>&#8211;<b>6<\/b> possessing C=O ketone groups, the signals for C<sub>16<\/sub> appear at 190.6-188.8 ppm, while for compound <b>7<\/b> having an amide group, respectively for compound <b>8<\/b> with an ester group appear at 165.8 ppm, respectively 166.6 ppm. Methylene C<sub>15<\/sub> atoms give signals at 63.4 -64.1 ppm for compounds <b>1<\/b>&#8211;<b>6<\/b> and at 57.9 -59.3 ppm for compounds <b>7<\/b>&#8211;<b>8<\/b>. All the remaining signals from NMR spectra are in accordance with the proposed structures.
