4,4′-Substituted biphenyl coronands. Preparation of a new selective fluorescent sensor for mercury salts

2006

Six new 4,4′-substituted biphenyl coronands have been prepared. The ligands containing dimethylamino groups in the biphenyl moiety have been used in transition metal cations’ complexation and one of them (3) has demonstrated to be a selective fluorescent sensor for mercury. Stoichiometries of the formed complexes and complexation constants have been determined by titration experiments. In addition, the extractant ability of some ligands has also been studied. Finally, the electrochemical properties of some of these ligands are also described.

Redox-active crown ethers derived from biphenyl. Electrochemical and spectroscopic study of binding processes with alkali, alkali-earth and mercury s…

1998

Abstract Three new electroactive ligands, 3a, 3b and 3c, that contain the biphenyl frameworks in their structure were prepared. These new ligands presented three interesting characteristics: 1) they exhibited a reversible oxidation, 2) the oxidation induced a conformational change in the crown moiety and 3) they had two different coordination centers, the crown ether and the dimethylamino groups. Electrochemical and spectroscopic studies using alkali, alkali-earth and mercury salts were carried out.

Biphenyl macrolactams in anion complexation. Selective naked-eye fluoride recognition

2004

Two colorimetric anion sensors 1 and 2 allow for the selective differentiation of fluoride in the presence of other anions. Two different types of species have been observed in the complexation process, one of them is a co-ordination complex and the other is a salt generated by ligand deprotonation. The deprotonation reaction induces a conformational change, giving rise to a symmetrical species. This species is responsible for colour development. Ligand 3 has a similar structure and does not give rise to any colour modification due to presence of the dimethylamino groups in the biphenyl moiety. The X-ray structure of ligand 2 is also reported and compared with that of ligand 1, that had bee…

Polyazapodands Derived from Biphenyl. Study of their Behaviour as Conformationally Regulated Fluorescent Sensors

2004

Eight new polyazapodands containing a 4,4′-substituted biphenyl moiety have been synthesised. Four (7, 8, 9 and 11) are functionalised on positions 4 and 4′ with a nitro group and four (1, 2, 3 and 10) with a dimethylamino substituent. Comparison of the emission behaviour of 1, 2, 3 with that of the reference compounds 10 and tetramthylbenzidine, clearly suggests that a modification in the dihedral angle between the biphenyl rings is an important factor in determining the fluorescent response of the molecule. The fluorescence is pH dependent, due to the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds between protonated aliphatic nitrogens and a carbonyl oxygen, which influences the aforementione…

N-Biphenyl thioureas as carboxylate receptors. Effect of the ligand substituents on the geometry of the complexes

2006

Abstract Six new biphenyl thiourea derivatives have been prepared to be used in carboxylate sensing. Experiments carried out with these ligands have demonstrated that the type of interaction with TBA carboxylates is strongly dependent on the substituents in the thiourea moiety. These interactions go from the formation of 1:1 hydrogen-bonded complexes to acid–base reactions. In addition, different geometries have been observed for the complexes being dependent on the conformations of the free ligands in solution.

Biphenyl-4-yl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate

2017

Molecules of the title compound, C19H16O3S, are composed of a biphenyl moiety substituted with a toluene-4-sulfonate group. The dihedral angle between the two coplanar biphenyl rings and the toluene ring is 52.72 (6)°.

Comparison of the crystal structures of 4,4′-bis[3-(4-methylpiperidin-1-yl)prop-1-yn-1-yl]-1,1′-biphenyl and 4,4′-bis[3-(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin…

2015

The crystal structures of the two title compounds display chair conformations of the piperidine rings in their mol­ecules. In compound (I), the biphenyl system has a twisted conformation with a dihedral angle of 26.57 (6)° while in compound (II) the two phenyl rings are exactly coplanar.

Exercise and Metformin Intervention Prevents Lipotoxicity-Induced Hepatocyte Apoptosis by Alleviating Oxidative and ER Stress and Activating the AMPK…

2022

Objective. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) commonly coexist and act synergistically to drive adverse clinical outcomes. This study is aimed at investigating the effects of exercise intervention and oral hypoglycaemic drug of metformin (MET) alone or combined on hepatic lipid accumulation. To investigate if oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) are involved in lipotoxicity-induced hepatocyte apoptosis in diabetic mice and whether exercise and/or MET alleviated oxidative stress or ERS-apoptosis by AMPK-Nrf2-HO-1 signaling pathway. Methods. Forty db/db mice with diabetes ( random   blood   glucose ≥ 250   mg / dL ) were randomly allocated i…

Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Agents, Part 19:E-2-Pyrrolizin-5-yl Acrylic Acids as Potent Dual or Selective Inhibitors of Bovine Cyclooxygenase and…

1995

The pyrrolizinyl substituted acrylic acid derivatives represent another class of dual and selective inhibitors of cyclooxygenase and 5-lipoxygenase. By modifying their substitution pattern at the phenyl moiety of C-6 the balance between the activity against cyclooxygenase and against 5-lipoxygenase can be shifted. Structure-activity relationships are discussed. Compound 6k is the most potent and well-balanced dual inhibitor of both enzymes, while the highest selectivity of lipoxygenase inhibition was found for 6j. The activity and selectivity of compounds with an additional sulfur moiety depend on the oxidation status of this atom, giving an indication of the discussed coupling between pero…
