First bisphosphonate hydrogelators: potential composers of biocompatible gels
2020
Recently, investigation of hydrogels has gained ever increasing attention mostly because of their biomedical and pharmaceutical properties, and novel hydrogelators are constantly studied to find functional applications. Bisphosphonates (BPs) are well-known compounds applicable in different fields but are mostly used in clinics as drugs for bone-related diseases. In this study, a novel class of BP-hydrogelators together with a BP-organogelator was found, and the gelating abilities of the compounds were studied. Several techniques to analyze the structure and the properties of the formed gels were used, including solid state 13C and 31P CPMAS and solution state NMR spectroscopy, IR spectrosco…
A novel bisphosphonate-based solid phase method for effective removal of chromium(iii) from aqueous solutions and tannery effluents
2013
Effective removal of chromium(III) from waste waters e.g. in the leather industry is required due to continuously tightening environmental regulations, and several methods such as precipitation and adsorption are currently in use. Nevertheless, more efficient, straightforward and inexpensive methods are constantly being sought. The current study describes a novel method to separate chromium(III) from aqueous solutions based on the use of solid bisphosphonates with a P–C–P backbone. Five classes of bisphosphonates with different functional groups and alkyl chain lengths at the center carbon, in all 16 compounds, were prepared and their suitability for metal ion complexing as chelating agents…
Systematic study of the physicochemical properties of a homologous series of aminobisphosphonates
2012
ABSTRACT: Aminobisphosphonates, e.g., alendronate and neridronate, are a well known class of molecules used as drugs for various bone diseases. Although these molecules have been available for decades, a detailed understanding of their most important physicochemical properties under comparable conditions is lacking. In this study, ten aminobisphosphonates, H2N(CH2)nC(OH)[P(O)(OH)2]2, in which n = 2-5, 7-11 and 15 have been synthesized. Their aqueous solubility as a function of temperature and pH, pKa-values, thermal stability, IR absorptions, and NMR spectral data for both liquid (1H, 13C, 31P-NMR) and solid state (13C, 15N and 31P-CPMAS NMR) were determined.
