Novel acrylamido monomers with higher hydrophilicity and improved hydrolytic stability: I. Synthetic route and product characterization.

1996

The novel acrylamido monomer reported by our group (N-acryloylaminoethoxyethanol, AAEE; Chiari et al., Electrophoresis 1994, 15, 177-186), found to combine high hydrophilicity with extraordinary resistance to alkaline hydrolysis, has come under closer scrutiny due to unexpected and random autopolymerization while stored as a 1/1 v/v water solution at 4 degrees C (possibly due to a greater oxidability of the ether group). We have additionally found a unique degradation pathway of the monomer, called "1-6 H-transfer", by which the C1 (on the double bond site), by constantly ramming against the C6, next to the ether oxygen (O7, which in fact favors the transfer of the hydrogen atom by C1), pro…

Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for Binary and Ternary Mixtures of Diisopropyl Ether, 2-Propyl Alcohol, and n-Butyl Propionate at 101.3 kPa

2009

Consistent vapor−liquid equilibrium data at 101.3 kPa have been determined for the ternary system diisopropyl ether (1) + 2-propyl alcohol (2) + n-butyl propionate (3) and two constituent binary systems: diisopropyl ether (1) + n-butyl propionate (3) and 2-propyl alcohol (2) + n-butyl propionate (3). The diisopropyl ether (1) + n-butyl propionate (3) system does not present deviation from ideal behavior, and the 2-propyl alcohol (2) + n-butyl propionate (3) system shows light positive deviation from Raoult’s law. The activity coefficients of the solutions were correlated with their compositions by the Wilson, NRTL, and UNIQUAC models. Wisniak−Tamir equations were used to correlate the boili…

Organocatalyticanti-Selective Mannich Reactions with Fluorinated Aldimines: Synthesis ofanti-γ-Fluoroalkyl-γ-amino Alcohols

2009

The asymmetric Mannich reaction between fluoroalkyl aldimines and aldehydes catalyzed by α,α-diphenylprolinol trimethylsilyl ether is reported. The corresponding Mannich adducts were reduced in situ to afford anti-β-alkyl-γ-fluoroalkyl-γ-amino alcohols in moderate yields and with very high diastereo- and enantioselectivities.

ChemInform Abstract: Calixcrowns : Synthesis and Properties

2009

The synthesis and properties of calix[n]crowns (n = 4–8), calix[n]biscrowns and their related compounds, resorcinarene crowns, have been discussed and reviewed. These macrocycles exhibit remarkable ionophoric properties toward alkali and alkaline earth metal cations, as well as, to tertiary amines. The selectivity and efficiency of calixcrowns in binding cations have been attributed to their structural features, which include substituent effects and size of the crown ether moiety and, conformation of the parent calixarene.

Synthesis of Lamellarin D Trimethyl Ether and Lamellarin H via 6π-Electrocyclization.

2015

An electrocyclic ring closure of a 2-azapentadienyl anion generated in situ from a chalcone and glycine ester is the key step of an efficient synthesis of the pyrrole core of the lamellarin alkaloids. A recently developed scalable one-pot procedure provides multigram quantities of a 3,5-diaryl-4-iodopyrrole-2-carboxylate intermediate which is transformed in four further high-yielding operations including a one-pot Pomeranz–Fritsch alkylation/cyclization and an Ullmann-type lactone ring closure into the pentacyclic lamellarin skeleton.

N-Glycosylamines of 4,6-O-ethylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranose: synthesis, characterisation and structure of CO2H, Cl and F ortho-substituted phenyl deri…

2000

A saccharide based ligand suitable for metal binding (HLCOOH) has been synthesized using 4,6-O-ethylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranose (4,6-O-EGP) and anthranilic acid. A few analogous glycosylamines with chloro and fluoro ortho substitutions have also been synthesized and characterised. Complexes of HLCOOH with Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Ba2+, Cd2+ and Hg2+ have been isolated and characterised fully. The crystal structures of 4,6-O-EGP, the chloro analogue of HLCOOH and the K+ complex of L-COOH are established. The anomeric nature, orientation of the binding core and the co-ordination aspects of K+ have been derived from these structures.

Free radical scavenging capability, antioxidant activity and chemical constituents of Pyrola incarnata Fisch. leaves

2013

Abstract In the present study, the crude extract and its four fractions of petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, water from Pyrola incarnata Fisch. leaves were prepared and their antioxidant activities were investigated by using four antioxidant assays in vitro. The ethyl acetate fraction showed remarkably strong antioxidant activities on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, ABTS radical scavenging, reducing power and β-carotene-linoleic acid bleaching, which were almost comparable to capacities of the positive controls (VC and BHT). The ethyl acetate fraction had the highest total phenolic and total flavonoid contents. Furthermore, Pearson correlation analysis was …

Structural and Transport Properties of Bola C-16 Micelles in Water and in Aqueous Electrolyte Solutions

2003

Aqueous solutions containing a bolaform surfactant [R,ω-(4,7,10,13-pentaoxa-16-azacyclooctadecane)- hexadecane], with and without electrolytes have been investigated as a function of surfactant concentration and ionic strength. Small angle neutron scattering (SANS), NMR self-diffusion, and other physical-chemical methods were used. From the analysis of SANS data it was inferred that in water the surfactant forms slightly charged ellipsoidal micelles, because of the partial hydrolysis of amino groups. The aggregates grow with the increase of concentration, becoming more elongated. Due to the selective complexing ability of aza crown ether units, significant differences were observed upon add…

Aqueous self-assembly and cation selectivity of cobaltabisdicarbollide dianionic dumbbells.

2014

The anion [3,3'-Co(C2B9H11)2](-) ([COSAN](-)) produces aggregates in water. These aggregates are interpreted to be the result of C-H⋅⋅⋅H-B interactions. It is possible to generate aggregates even after the incorporation of additional functional groups into the [COSAN](-) units. The approach is to join two [COSAN](-) anions by a linker that can adapt itself to act as a crown ether. The linker has been chosen to have six oxygen atoms, which is the ideal number for K(+) selectivity in crown ethers. The linker binds the alkaline metal ions with different affinities; thus showing a distinct degree of selectivity. The highest affinity is shown towards K(+) from a mixture containing Li(+), Na(+), …
