Synthesis of Novel C-Pivot Lariat 18-Crown-6 Ethers and their Efficient Purification.

ABSTRACT: The syntheses of various lariat ethers including several not previously reported and their efficient purification are presented. The synthesis route brings together reactions from a variety of previous works leading to a robust and generalized approach to these C-pivot lariats. The main steps are condensation of functionalized diols with pentaethylene glycol ditosylate in the presence of potassium as a templating cation. Purification of the final products was achieved without chromatography by extracting from an aqueous potassium hydroxide solution.

Dibenzo-18-crown-6.

Project description:The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(20)H(24)O(6), contains two mol-ecules that are identical within standard deviations concerning bond lengths and angles as well as their conformations. In the crystal structure, weak C-H?O inter-actions help to consolidate the packing.

Synthesis, Molecular Recognition Study and Liquid Membrane-Based Applications of Highly Lipophilic Enantiopure Acridino-Crown Ethers.

Project description:New highly lipophilic enantiopure crown ethers containing a heterocyclic unit have been synthesized. Phase transport, UV-Vis- and fluorescence spectrophotometric investigations as well as electrochemical studies on the complexation of the new macrocycles with several amine and amino acid derivatives were also carried out. Achiral amines were used for studying the structural preference of the new macrocycles. Among the studied structural features of the guest molecules, the intermolecular ?-? interaction showed the most significant effect on complexation, which made the aralkylamine-type compounds the most preferable guest molecules. The studied liquid membrane-based applications and photophysical investigations showed appreciable enantiomeric recognition toward some aralkylamine model compounds with homochiral preferences. New crown ether derivatives (R,R)-2 and (S,S)-2 were successfully applied as enantioselective carrier and sensor molecules.

Crown ethers attenuate aggregation of amyloid beta of Alzheimer's disease.

Project description:In this report, we reasoned that non-covalent modification of amyloid beta (A?) by crown ethers could inhibit its aggregation. We demonstrated that PiB-C, a conjugate PiB and crown ether, could significantly reduce the aggregation in vitro. Additionally, two-photon imaging showed that PiB-C could efficiently label A? plaques and CAAs in AD mice.

Crowning proteins: modulating the protein surface properties using crown ethers.

Project description:Crown ethers are small, cyclic polyethers that have found wide-spread use in phase-transfer catalysis and, to a certain degree, in protein chemistry. Crown ethers readily bind metallic and organic cations, including positively charged amino acid side chains. We elucidated the crystal structures of several protein-crown ether co-crystals grown in the presence of 18-crown-6. We then employed biophysical methods and molecular dynamics simulations to compare these complexes with the corresponding apoproteins and with similar complexes with ring-shaped low-molecular-weight polyethylene glycols. Our studies show that crown ethers can modify protein surface behavior dramatically by stabilizing either intra- or intermolecular interactions. Consequently, we propose that crown ethers can be used to modulate a wide variety of protein surface behaviors, such as oligomerization, domain-domain interactions, stabilization in organic solvents, and crystallization.

Regioselective Benzylation of 2-Deoxy-2-Aminosugars Using Crown Ethers: Application to a Shortened Synthesis of Hyaluronic Acid Oligomers.

Project description:The combination of benzyl bromide, sodium hydroxide and 15-crown-5 in tetrahydrofuran is shown to be an efficient method for installing benzyl groups at both the 4- and 6-positions regioselectively directly from peracetylated N-trichloroacetyl-protected glucosamine and galactosamine. Application of this benzylation strategy proved to significantly shorten the synthetic route to hyaluronic acid tetra- and hexamers.

A practical and efficient route for the highly enantioselective synthesis of mexiletine analogues and novel beta-thiophenoxy and pyridyl ethers.

Project description:A practical and efficient procedure for the enantioselective synthesis of mexiletine analogues with use of 10% of spiroborate ester 6 as chirality transfer agent is presented. A variety of mexiletine analogues were prepared in good yield with excellent enantioselectivities (91-97% ee) from readily available starting materials. The developed methodology was also successfully applied for the synthesis of novel beta-amino ethers containing thiophenyl and pyridyl fragments.

Crown ethers reverse P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance in cancer cells.

Project description:Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a widespread phenomenon exhibited by many cancers and represents a fundamental obstacle for successful cancer treatments. Tumour cells commonly achieve MDR phenotype through overexpression and/or increased activity of ABC transporters. P-glycoprotein transporter (P-gp, ABCB1) is a major cause of MDR and therefore represents a valuable target for MDR reversal. Several naturally occurring potassium ionophores (e.g. salinomycin) were shown to inhibit P-gp effectively. We have previously shown antitumour activity of a number of 18-crown-6 ether compounds that transport potassium ions across membranes. Here we present data on P-gp inhibitory activity of 16 adamantane-substituted monoaza- and diaza-18-crown-6 ether compounds, and their effect on MDR reversal in model cell lines. We show that crown ether activity depends on their lipophilicity as well as on the linker to adamantane moiety. The most active crown ethers were shown to be more effective in sensitising MDR cells to paclitaxel and adriamycin than verapamil, a well-known P-gp inhibitor. Altogether our data demonstrate a novel use of crown ethers for inhibition of P-gp and reversal of MDR phenotype.

Optimal transport and colossal ionic mechano-conductance in graphene crown ethers.

Project description:Biological ion channels balance electrostatic and dehydration effects to yield large ion selectivity alongside high transport rates. These macromolecular systems are often interrogated through point mutations of their pore domain, limiting the scope of mechanistic studies. In contrast, we demonstrate that graphene crown ether pores afford a simple platform to directly investigate optimal ion transport conditions, i.e., maximum current densities and selectivity. Crown ethers are known for selective ion adsorption. When embedded in graphene, however, transport rates lie below the drift-diffusion limit. We show that small pore strains (1%) give rise to a colossal (100%) change in conductance. This process is electromechanically tunable, with optimal transport in a primarily diffusive regime, tending toward barrierless transport, as opposed to a knock-on mechanism. These observations suggest a novel setup for nanofluidic devices while giving insight into the physical foundation of evolutionarily optimized ion transport in biological pores.

Triaqua-chlorido(18-crown-6)barium chloride.

Project description:In the title compound, [BaCl(C(12)H(24)O(6))(H(2)O)(3)]Cl, the Ba(II) atom, the coordinating and free Cl(-) anions, one coordinating water mol-ecule and two O atoms of an 18-crown-6 mol-ecule lie on a mirror plane. The environment of the ten-coordinate Ba(2+) ion is defined by one Cl atom, three water mol-ecules and six O atoms from the macrocyclic ether. The macrocycle adopts a conformation with an approximate D(3d) symmetry. In the crystal, O-H?Cl hydrogen bonds link the complex cations and Cl(-) anions into a two-dimensional network parallel to (010). An intra-molecular O-H?Cl hydrogen bond is also present.

(18-Crown-6)(trifluoro-methane-sulfonato)-sodium.

Project description:The title compound, [Na(CF(3)O(3)S)(C(12)H(24)O(6))], features a sodium cation that is coordinated by eight O atoms in an irregular hexa-gonal bipyramidal environment. The equatorial positions are occupied by the six O atoms of an 18-crown-6 ether ring. In the axial positions, there is one O atom of a trifluoro-methane-sulfonate anion and an ether O atom of a symmetry-equivalent crown ether ring. In this way, centrosymmetric dimers are formed.
