The sanidic polyamide [NM-Ph(CO 2 R) 3 (CO 2 Me)-NMCO-Ph(OR) 2 CO] n (R=C 12 H 25 ) is studied. It is shown that this polymer has a biaxial structure with quasi 2-D long range translational correlations. The correlations in one direction are limited by the length of the molecule. The oriented regions are separated by regions in which the molecules are less oriented

Peptide–Membrane Interactions Monitored by Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging: A Study Case of Transportan 10

2021

The interest on detailed analysis of peptide-membrane interactions is of great interest in both fundamental and applied sciences as these may relate to both functional and pathogenic events. Such interactions are highly dynamic and spatially heterogeneous, making the investigation of the associated phenomena highly complex. The specific properties of membranes and peptide structural details, together with environmental conditions, may determine different events at the membrane interface, which will drive the fate of the peptide-membrane system. Here, we use an experimental approach based on the combination of spectroscopy and fluorescence microscopy methods to characterize the interactions …

Size Exclusion Chromatography of Proteins on Improved Bonded Silica Columns

1985

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the size exclusion chromatography (SEC) of proteins on improved bonded silica columns. Over the past few years, the use of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has been extended to protein chemistry as a powerful separation and isolation technique. A spectrum of variants providing high resolution potential—ion exchange, reversed phase, hydrophobic interaction, affinity, and size exclusion—is available. Of these, SEC is the simplest with respect to method development and equipment design: proteins are separated according to their size in a short and predictable time span under isocratic conditions. The SEC columns are packed with micro-partic…

Chapter 2 Single molecule spectroscopy of multichromophoric dendrimers at room and liquid helium temperatures

2004

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the single molecule spectroscopy of multichromophoric dendrimers at room and liquid helium temperatures. Single molecule spectroscopy has become an important tool for the optical study of the electronic interactions of proximate chromophores as the electronic interactions can be studied without averaging over the properties of an intrinsically heterogeneous ensemble. Single perylenemonoimide (PMI) chromophores are selectively addressed in the frequency domain within spatially isolated multichromophoric dendrimers, which are dispersed in a polymer film. Although the chromophores are interacting, they still can be addressed separately. This feature in …

Quantitative measurements of non-covalent interactions with diamond based magnetic imaging

2018

We present a technique employing dielectrophoretic (DEP) manipulation of surface immobilized complexes integrated with a magnetic imaging platform based on nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond for the quantitative measurements of non-covalent interactions. The interdigitated microelectrodes closely spaced to the functionalized surface of the diamond plate provide a wide range of applied DEP forces for noninvasive manipulation of various molecular interactions, while the NV layer under the surface reports the unbinding dynamics. Given that biological samples do not present significant magnetic background and do not screen magnetic fields, our approach has many advantages over the fluores…

Asymmetric One-Pot Synthesis of (3R,3aS,6aR)-Hexahydrofuro[2,3-b]furan-3-ol: A Key Component of Current HIV Protease Inhibitors

2017

A concise and efficient synthesis of (3R,3aS,6aR)-hexahydrofuro[2,3-b]furan-3-ol, a key building block for several clinical and experimental HIV protease inhibitors including the highly important drug darunavir, was achieved via a one-pot procedure using furan and Cbz-protected glycol aldehyde as starting materials. A [2+2]-photocycloaddition between both reactants which can be prepared from wood-based starting materials according to the principles of xylochemistry, followed by hydrogenation and lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution afforded the target compound in high yield and up to 99% ee.

1996

The major new developments in electron crystallography and high resolution imaging of organic molecules are discussed. The aim is to show that the recent rapid advances in computer technology have made it possible to analyze molecules at a level or resolution which was impossible less than a decade ago, thus bringing the concept of molecular design to produce specific physical properties much nearer to realization

Cyclic Sulfonimidates by Dynamic Diastereomer-Differentiating Cyclisation: Large-Scale Synthesis and Mechanistic Studies

2001

A dynamic diastereomer differentiating cyclisation is the key step in a new large-scale synthesis of both enantiomers of the cyclic sulfonimidates 1 (Aldrich no. 54099-4) and ent-1 (Aldrich no. 54412-4). These are valuable starting materials in the asymmetric synthesis of chiral oxa- and azaheterocyclic compounds. NMR spectroscopic studies on the reacting system reveal N-chloro sulfinamides to be reactive intermediates in the oxidative chlorination of sulfinamides with tert-butyl hypochlorite and allow for the inspection of the configurational behaviour of the involved sulfonimidoyl chlorides and sulfonimidoyl bromides.
