Scanning tunneling microscopy investigation of tricycloquinazoline liquid crystals on gold

2000

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of hexaalkylthioether derivatives of tricycloquinazoline (TCQ) on Au(111) and tungsten diselenide (WSe2) were investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The Au(111) surfaces were found to be etched by the thioether containing solutions. Corroded surfaces which are similar to gold surfaces that were coated with SAMs of thiols or disulfides were revealed by STM. Atomic adsorption spectroscopy proved that an amount of gold that corresponds to ca. 30% of a monolayer was dissolved in the assembly solutions. On gold, the aromatic cores of the molecules were found to be in face-on orientation. The alkyl substituents were in most cases folded upwards and s…

A new and expeditious strategy for the synthesis of β-amino acids from Δ2-oxazolines

2001

Abstract A new, mild two-step synthesis of racemic β-amino acids starting from 2-alkyl-Δ2-oxazolines is described. The process implies the initial formation of masked N-substituted or N-unsubstituted β-enamino acid derivatives followed by chemoselective reduction of the enamino moiety. The process takes place with high yields, total chemoselectivity and moderate diastereoselectivity.

Counterion's Effect on the Catalytic Activity of Zn-Prolinamide Complexes in Aldol Condensations

2012

The catalytic activity of complexes involving organic ligands and Lewis acids can be modulated by changing any of their components. In this work we have studied the influence on the stereoselectivity and catalytic activity exerted by the counterion of zinc salts employed as cocatalysts of L-prolinamide in aldol condensations. The structures of the complexes have been determined both in solution and in the solid state.

Model studies on a diastereoselective synthesis of the C(33)–C(37) fragment of Amphotericin B

2003

Abstract A new, short and highly diastereoselective synthetic route aiming at the C(33)–C(37) fragment of Amphotericin B has been developed. Studies with a model aldehyde (benzaldehyde) have given very promising results: the desired stereochemistry of all four stereocenters of the target molecule has been achieved with high diastereoselection. The stereochemistry of three key intermediates and the target segment has been confirmed by X-ray crystallography.

Oligosaccharide recognition by selectins: Synthesis and biological activity of multivalent sialyl lewis-X ligands

1995

Abstract Trivalent sialyl Lewis-X ligands 6–8 anchored onto flexible templates have been synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of E-selectin and P-selectin mediated cell adhesion in cell culture assays and in vivo. Biological activities in vitro correlated with spacer length and lead to ligands with 3-fold (E-selectin) and 5-fold (P-selectin) improved receptor binding avidity per single tetrasaccharide moiety.

(p-Sulfomethyl)phenylalanine as a mimic of O-sulfatyl-tyrosine in synthetic partial sequences of P-Selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL-1)

2007

Abstract Fmoc- l -( p -sulfomethyl)phenylalanine, a bioisosteric mimic of acid-sensitive O -sulfatyl tyrosine, was synthesized from l -tyrosine according to a novel route. Partial sequences of the recognition site of P-Selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL-1), which contain (sulfomethyl)phenylalanine were synthesized on solid-phase. By fragment condensation, a sialyl Lewis x peptide conjugate containing a (sulfomethyl)phenylalanine mimic of O -sulfatyl tyrosine was prepared without destruction of the acid-sensitive fucoside bond within the saccharide side chain. Compounds of this type are of interest as sufficiently acid-stable potential inhibitors of P-Selectin in inflammatory processes.

An α-alkylation of deprotonated α-amino nitriles, prepared from chiral phenyldioxanamine (I) by Strecker reaction, leads to α-quaternary arylglycines with high optical purity after hydrolysis and oxidative cleavage of the chiral auxiliary.
