N-Cinnamoyl-l-phenyl-alanine methyl ester.

ABSTRACT: As part of an ongoing investigation into the development of N-substituted amino acids as building blocks for dynamic combinatorial chemistry, we report the structure of the title compound, C(19)H(19)NO(3). This compound crystallizes as discrete mol-ecules. The cinnamoyl group is non-planar, with the phenyl ring and the amide twisted out of the ethyl-ene plane. The benzyl and ester groups lie above and below the amide plane. The mol-ecules stack along the crystallographic c axis, connecting through C(4) chains of N-H?O hydrogen bonds, with the extended structure stabilized by C-H?O inter-actions and ?-? inter-actions [centroid-to-centroid distances 3.547?(8) and 3.536?(8)?Å].

l-Alanine methyl ester hydro-chloride monohydrate.

Project description:The enanti-opure title compound, C(4)H(10)NO(2) (+)·Cl(-)·H(2)O, forms a two-dimensional network by inter-molecular hydrogen bonding parallel to (010). Non-merohedral twinning with a twofold rotation about the reciprocal c* axis as twin operation was taken into account during intensity integration and structure refinement. This twinning leads to alternative orientations of the stacked hydrogen-bonded layers.

Quantification of N-acyl alanine methyl ester (NAME) production by Roseovarius tolerans EL-164 enables dose-dependant activity testing

Project description:N-acyl amino acid methyl esters (NAMEs), which are structurally similar to the signalling compounds N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs), have been identified in culture extracts of Roseovarius tolerans EL-164. However, previous studies have shown that NAMEs do not participate in AHL-mediated signalling and thus their ecological role remains unclear. To enable dose-dependent bioactivity-testing of NAMEs, we have established a quantification method for NAMEs. The concentrations determined for the major NAMEs produced by EL 164, C16:1- and C17:1-NAME, ranged between 0.7-5.7 mg L-1 and 5.3-86.4 µg L-1, respectively. We observed opposing production patterns for NAMEs and AHLs, with a continuously increasing NAME production during exponential growth and an accumulation in the stationary phase. We further conducted a spike-in experiment, using the previously determined metabolite concentrations. By comparing the transcriptomes of pre- and post-NAME or AHL spikes, we identified distinct impacts on gene expression patterns. Different genetic neighbourhoods were significantly up- or downregulated in NAME and AHL-spiked cultures. Yet no synergetic effect was observed. These findings exemplify the broad application range of dose-dependent testing and highlight the different biological activities of NAMEs and AHLs.

(E)-Methyl 2-(3-cinnamoyl-thio-ureido)acetate.

Project description:In the title compound, C(13)H(14)N(2)O(3)S, the methyl 2-(3-formyl-thio-ureido)acetate fragment and the phenyl ring adopt an E configuration. The mol-ecule exhibits an intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond, which completes a six-membered ring. The crystal packing is stabilized by inter-molecular N-H⋯S contacts, generating a two-dimensional hydrogen-bonding network.

Crystal structure of N-(tert-but-oxy-carbon-yl)phenyl-alanylde-hydro-alanine isopropyl ester (Boc-Phe-?Ala-OiPr).

Project description:In the title compound, the de-hydro-dipeptide (Boc-Phe-?Ala-OiPr, C20H28N2O5), the mol-ecule has a trans conformation of the N-methyl-amide group. The geometry of the de-hydro-alanine moiety is to some extent different from those usually found in simple peptides, indicating conjugation between the H2C=C group and the peptide bond. The bond angles around de-hydro-alanine have unusually high values due to the steric hindrance, the same inter-action influencing the slight distortion from planarity of the de-hydro-alanine. The mol-ecule is stabilized by intra-molecular inter-actions between the isopropyl group and the N atoms of the peptide main chain. In the crystal, an N-H?O hydrogen bond links the mol-ecules into ribbons, giving a herringbone head-to-head packing arrangement extending along the [100] direction. In the stacks, the mol-ecules are linked by weak C-H?O hydrogen-bonding associations.

4-Methyl-N-(4-methyl-phenyl-sulfon-yl)-N-phenyl-benzene-sulfonamide.

Project description:The whole mol-ecule of the title compound, C20H19NO4S2, is generated by twofold rotational symmetry. The N atom is located on the twofold rotation axis and has a trigonal-planar geometry. It is bonded by two S atoms of two symmetry-related 4-methyl-phenyl-sulfonyl groups and by the C atom of the phenyl ring, which is bis-ected by the twofold rotation axis. The benzene and phenyl rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 51.48 (5)° while the pendant benzene rings are inclined to one another by 87.76 (9)°. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules, forming a three-dimensional network.

Structure-Property Relationships for the Electronic Applications of Bis-Adduct Isomers of Phenyl-C<sub>61</sub> Butyric Acid Methyl Ester.

Project description:Higher adducts of a fullerene, such as the bis-adduct of PCBM (bis-PCBM), can be used to achieve shallower molecular orbital energy levels than, for example, PCBM or C60. Substituting the bis-adduct for the parent fullerene is useful to increase the open-circuit voltage of organic solar cells or achieve better energy alignment as electron transport layers in, for example, perovskite solar cells. However, bis-PCBM is usually synthesized as a mixture of structural isomers, which can lead to both energetic and morphological disorder, negatively affecting device performance. Here, we present a comprehensive study on the molecular properties of 19 pure bis-isomers of PCBM using a variety of characterization methods, including ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, single crystal structure, and (time-dependent) density functional theory calculation. We find that the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital of such bis-isomers can be tuned to be up to 170 meV shallower than PCBM and up to 100 meV shallower than the mixture of unseparated isomers. The isolated bis-isomers also show an electron mobility in organic field-effect transistors of up to 4.5 × 10-2 cm2/(V s), which is an order of magnitude higher than that of the mixture of bis-isomers. These properties enable the fabrication of the highest performing bis-PCBM organic solar cell to date, with the best device showing a power conversion efficiency of 7.2%. Interestingly, we find that the crystallinity of bis-isomers correlates negatively with electron mobility and organic solar cell device performance, which we relate to their molecular symmetry, with a lower symmetry leading to more amorphous bis-isomers, less energetic disorder, and higher dimensional electron transport. This work demonstrates the potential of side chain engineering for optimizing the performance of fullerene-based organic electronic devices.
