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.

From Hexaphenylbenzene to 1,2,3,4,5,6-Hexacyclohexylcyclohexane

2020

The hydrogenation of hexaphenylbenzene was studied, affording novel partially hydrogenated hexacyclohexylbenzene (HCB) as well as fully hydrogenated 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexacyclohexylcyclohexane (HCC) as an unprecedented “oligocyclohexyl” molecule. The reaction process was analyzed by mass spectrometry with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization and high-performance liquid chromatography. From a crude product mixture, two different crystals with flake- and block-shapes could be grown and analyzed by X-ray crystallography, revealing their structures as HCB and HCC. While a geared arrangement of cyclohexyl substitutes was found in HCB, two isomeric structures were identified in HCC crystal with cha…

Model for Solid State Voltammetry of Zeolite-Associated Species

2004

The electrochemical reduction/oxidation of zeolite-associated species is described from the model of Lovric and Scholz for redox conductive microcrystals and the model of Andrieux and Saveant for redox polymers. It is assumed that the reaction starts at the three-phase boundary between electrode, zeolite particle, and electrolyte. From this point, the reaction zone grows while electrons and charge-balancing cations diffuse perpendicularly along the zeolite. As a result, at short times, a Cottrell-type behavior, controlled by the diffusion of electrolyte countercations in the zeolite can be expected. At larger times, a thin-layer response in which electron hopping between adjacent redox site…

New Molecular Topologies by Fourfold Metathesis Reactions within a Hydrogen-Bonded Calix[4]arene Dimer

2003

A calix[4]arene tetrapentyl ether in the cone conformation substituted at its wide rim by four m-(omega-octenyloxy)phenyl urea groups forms hydrogen-bonded dimeric capsules in dichloromethane/benzene (95:5). Metathesis reaction with Grubbs' catalyst under high-dilution conditions (1.1 x 10(-4) M) followed by hydrogenation leads to a covalent connection of all the urea groups within a dimer. Three topologically different products may be expected in such a reaction: a bis[2]catenane, a doubly bridged monocatenane and a tetrabridged capsule. All three possible reaction products could be isolated in an overall yield up to 60 % for the separated and purified compounds. Their identification was b…

Preparation and structure of pyrrolo[2,1-b]- and isoindolo[1,2-b][3,1]epoxyquinazolines

2007

Abstract Various γ-oxocarboxylic acids [aroylpropionic acids, cis-2-(4-methylbenzoyl)cyclohexanecarboxylic acid, diendo-3-benzoylbicyclo[2.2.1] heptane-2-carboxylic acid, formylbenzoic acid, methanobenzenecyclooctencarboxylic acid and the cyclopentadiene adduct of 3-trans-(4-methylbenzoyl)acrylic acid] were reacted with diexo-3-aminomethyl-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-ylamine 2 to result in condensed pyrroloepoxyquinazolines 3–10. The starting 2 retained the diexo configuration, but cis → trans isomerization took place when cis-2-(4-methylbenzoyl)cyclohexanecarboxylic acid was applied. The structures, including the ring annelations and the position of the aryl group on the new chiral cent…

PDE4 inhibitors as new anti-inflammatory drugs: effects on cell trafficking and cell adhesion molecules expression.

2004

Phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) is a major cyclic AMP-hydrolyzing enzyme in inflammatory and immunomodulatory cells. The wide range of inflammatory mechanisms under control by PDE4 points to this isoenzyme as an attractive target for new anti-inflammatory drugs. Selective inhibitors of PDE4 have demonstrated a broad spectrum of anti-inflammatory activities including the inhibition of cellular trafficking and microvascular leakage, cytokine and chemokine release from inflammatory cells, reactive oxygen species production, and cell adhesion molecule expression in a variety of in vitro and in vivo experimental models. The initially detected side effects, mainly nausea and emesis, appear at least pa…

Novel σ1 antagonists designed for tumor therapy: Structure – activity relationships of aminoethyl substituted cyclohexanes

2021

Abstract Depending on the substitution pattern and stereochemistry, 1,3-dioxanes 1 with an aminoethyl moiety in 4-position represent potent σ1 receptor antagonists. In order to increase the stability, a cyclohexane ring first replaced the acetalic 1, 3-dioxane ring of 1. A large set of aminoethyl substituted cyclohexane derivatives was prepared in a six-step synthesis. All enantiomers and diastereomers were separated by chiral HPLC at the stage of the primary alcohol 7, and their absolute configuration was determined by CD spectroscopy. Neither the relative nor the absolute configuration had a large impact on the σ1 affinity. The highest σ1 affinity was found for cis-configured benzylamines…

Theoretical and structural studies of lithium cyclic amide conformations. Monomers and aggregates

2000

High level ab initio calculations on the conformations of unsolvated and solvated lithium piperidide, 1, and lithium morpholide, 2, were carried out. It was found that both monomers exhibit a global minimum for a chair structure with a planar nitrogen, and 2 shows an additional stable pseudo boat conformation. Dimers and amine–lithium amide mixed aggregates were also calculated including discrete solvation; the role of aggregation is clearly shown both by the changes in geometries and in the stabilization energies. Semiempirical calculations carried out on a recently synthesized tetrameric mixed aggregate give a geometry very similar to the structure determined by X-ray diffraction. The pre…
