Experimental evidence for the homochiral aggregation of ammonium salts in solution
2006
NMR and X-ray evidence for the homochiral aggregation of chiral ammonium picrates from racemic solutions is presented.
Enantioselective sensing of dicarboxylates. Influence of the stoichiometry of the complexes on the sensing mechanism
2009
Two new cyclohexane-based thiourea chiral ligands have been synthesized in their enantiomerically pure forms. Both the ability of these ligands in the complexation of chiral dicarboxylates and their sensing properties have been studied. The influence of the stoichiometry of the formed complexes on the fluorescent properties of the systems has been established. The effect of additional substitution in the cyclohexyl moiety was considered by comparing the properties of the newly prepared ligands with those of similar compounds previously described.
Fluorescent chemosensors based on cyclohexane: selective sensing of succinate and malonate versus their longer or shorter homologues
2008
The sensing properties towards aliphatic α,ω-dicarboxylates of five cyclohexane-based ligands are described. The studied ligands have been designed following the binding site-signalling unit approach and they all possess thiourea groups as recognition moieties. Ligands 1 and 3 containing naphthalene units can be used as fluorescent sensors as they form intra- or intermolecular excimers in the presence of appropriate dicarboxylates. Selective sensing of succinate and malonate versus their longer or shorter homologues has been observed.
Chiral cyclohexane based fluorescent chemosensors for enantiomeric discrimination of aspartate
2008
Some new chiral cyclohexyl based fluorescent anion receptors have been synthesized and their absolute configuration has been determined by using circular dichroism (CD). Complexation experiments have been carried out with several dicarboxylates, and stoichiometries and complexation constants for the corresponding complexes have been determined. The chiral discrimination ability of these ligands for chiral dicarboxylates has been studied and the best results have been obtained with TMA aspartate.
