Free-Standing Mono layer Two-Dimensional Supramolecular Organic Framework with Good Internal Order
2015
Utilizing dynamic self-assembly and self-sorting to obtain large-area, molecularly precise monolayered structures represents a promising approach toward two-dimensional supramolecular organic frameworks (2D SOF) or 2D supramolecular polymers. So far, related approaches suffer from small domain sizes, fragility and weak long-range internal order. Here we report on the self-assembly of a host-guest enhanced donor-acceptor interaction, consisting of a tris(methoxynaphthyl)-substituted truxene spacer, and a naphthalene diimide substituted with N-methyl viologenyl moieties as donor and acceptor monomers, respectively, in combination with cucurbit[8]uril as host monomer toward monolayers of an un…
On Demand One-Pot Mild Preparation of Layered Double Hydroxides and Their Hybrid Forms: Advances through the Epoxide Route.
2019
Epoxide ring opening driven alkalinization process was explored with the aim of preparing layered double hydroxide (LDH) phases on demand, at room temperature. Employing iodide as nucleophilic agent, the precipitation reaction can be driven under much lower halide concentrations. This scenario favors the selective intercalation of concomitant bulky oxo anions as nitrate or perchlorate in the LDH products, allowing for the one-pot synthesis of an LDH able to delaminate in formamide. Even large dicarboxylic acids, - O2 C-(CH2 )n -CO2 - , with n up to 8, can be quantitively intercalated within the growing LDH phase, providing a versatile one-pot route for hybrid LDHs as well. Under the mild co…
Polymerizable and polymeric zwitterionic surfactants: 1. Synthesis and bulk properties
1991
Abstract The synthesis of a series of permanently zwitterionic surfactant monomers based on sulphobetaines and the preparation of their polymers is described. Solubilities, thermal properties and bulk structures of the zwitterionic polymers are studied with respect to their molecular architecture, and compared with cationic analogues. The various solubilities of the polymers can be correlated with their molecular geometry, enabling differentiation into distinct classes. This behaviour is paralleled by the observed bulk structures of the polymers where distinct classes of superstructures are present. However, independently of the molecular geometry, no thermal transition could be detected fo…
Application of headspace analysis to the study of aroma compounds-lipids interactions
1998
Taking into account interactions between aroma compounds and food components is necessary to better manage the flavoring of food products. These interactions occur at a molecular level and reflect changes, at a macroscopic level, in thermodynamic equilibria, such as solubility or volatility. The rate of transfer of an aroma compound from the liquid to the vapor phase can be affected as well. The behavior of aroma compounds in water and lipid solutions was studied in two complementary ways, a thermodynamic and a kinetic approach (head-space analysis). The transfer rate of volatiles at the liquid-water interface does not only depend on the hydrophobicity of the aroma compounds. Vapor-liquid p…
Evidence for essential primary amino groups in a bacterial coupling factor F1ATPase.
1980
Abstract We have found that the binding of pyridoxal-5′-phosphate to 6 primary amino groups leads to the inactivation of the enzyme. A preferential reaction of pyridoxal-5′-phosphate with the α-subunits of this enzyme can be demonstrated. The reactivity of the amino groups is influenced by various effectors. In the presence of ATP the inhibition of the ATPase activity is noncompetitive.
Continuum-uniform approach calculations of the solubility of hydrocarbons in water
1993
Abstract The ransfer free energies from gas phase to water for some hydrocarbons are calculated by means of a continuum-uniform model of the solvent. For the calculation of the cavitation energy a model based on the surface tension is proposed. The calculated values are compared with the experimental free energies obtained with and without a corrective factor that accounts for the difference in the solute—solvent sizes. Good agreement between the theoretical free energies and the corrected experimental data is obtained. Our calculations seem to show that the hydrophobic effect is directly related to the molecular surface area.

Poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA), poly(butylmethacrylate) (PBMA), and poly(decylmethacrylate) (PDMA) are completely miscible with toluene at normal pressure from room temperature up to the boiling point of the solvent. In alkanes (C6 to C10) and 1-pentanol the solubility increases with the length of the side chain of the polymer: PMMA always exhibits a solubility gap within the above temperature range, PBMA shows upper critical solution temperatures (except n-hexane, which is a non-solvent), and PDMA mixes completely with all alkanes under consideration. Alcohols (up to C4) are non-solvents for PMMA but theta solvents for PBMA and PDMA (except ethanol which is a non-solvent for the latter). …
Heat capacities, volumes and solubilities of pentanol in aqueous alkyltrimethylammonium bromides
1988
Apparent molar heat capacities and volumes of pentanol, 0.05m in decyl-, tetradecyl- and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromides micellar solutions, were measured at 25°C. They were assumed to approach the standard infinite dilution values and rationalized by means of previously reported equations following which the distribution constant between the aqueous and the micellar phase, heat capacity, and volume of pentanol in both phases are simultaneously derived. The present results show that the volume of the micellar core does not seem to have a significant effect on the apparent molar volume and heat capacity of pentanol in the micellar phase and on the free energy of transfer of pentanol from…
Improvement of solubility and biocompatibility of MnO based nanoparticles in aqueous solutions
2011
ABSTRACTMnO nanoparticles were surface modified using two different multifunctional polymers. By introducing a PEG group, the long term stability, MRI applicability and sterile filtration could be greatly improved. Furthermore, PEGylated MnO NPs were less toxic compared to non-PEGylated NPs. The results suggest that these nanoparticles are suitable for in vivo applications.
An ionene with spirane structure (spiroionene)
1990
The secondary diamine 1,3,5,7-tetrahydro[1,2c:4,5c'] benzodipyrrole (3) and 1,2,4,5-tetrabromomethylbenzene (1) form a polymeric ionene with spirane structure through a repetitive alkylation reaction. The structure of the product could be proven by13C-NMR spectroscopy by comparison with suitable reference compounds. Solutions in aqueous methanol exhibit a typical polyelectrolyte effect. Variation of the counterions produces sufficient solubility in organic solvents. From the crystal structure of a similar model compound one can conclude that the synthesized polymer has a rod-like shape.
