Asymmetric solution-phase mixture aldol reaction using oligomeric ethylene glycol tagged chiral oxazolidinones.

ABSTRACT: Sorting tags are oligomeric structures that can be used as protecting groups or chiral auxiliaries enabling solution-phase mixture syntheses of multiple tagged compounds in one pot and allowing for facile and predictable chromatographic separation of products at the end of synthetic sequences. Perfluorinated hydrocarbon and oligomeric ethylene glycol (OEG) derivatives are known classes of sorting tags. Herein we describe the preparation of OEGylated chiral oxazolidinones and their use in asymmetric solution-phase mixture aldol reactions. Through the use of such oxazolidinones based on tyrosine four different individually tagged aldol adducts were obtained as a mixture, chromatographically demixed, detagged, and it was shown that these processes gave the desired aldol products in good yield and enantioselectivity.

Design of Biomolecular Interfaces using Liquid Crystals Containing Oligomeric Ethylene Glycol.

Project description:We report an investigation of nematic LCs formed from miscible mixtures of 4-cyano-4'-pentylbiphenyl (5CB) and 2-(2-[2-{2-(2,3-difluoro-4-{4-(4-trans-pentylcyclohexyl)-phenyl-phenoxy)ethoxy}ethoxy]ethoxy)ethanol (EG4-LC), the latter being a mesogen with a tetra(ethylene glycol) tail. Quantitative characterization of the ordering of this LC mixture at biologically-relevant aqueous interfaces revealed that addition of EG4-LC (1-5% by weight) to 5CB causes a continuous transition in the ordering of the LC from a planar (pure 5CB) to a perpendicular (homeotropic) orientation. The homeotropic ordering is also seen in aqueous dispersions of micrometer-sized droplets of the LC mixture, which exhibit enhanced stability against coalescence. These observations and others, all of which suggest partitioning of the EG4-LC from the bulk of the LC to its aqueous interface, were complemented by measurements of the adsorption of bovine serum albumin (BSA) to the aqueous-LC interface. Whereas adsorption of BSA to the interface of a LC mixture containing 1% wt/wt of EG4-LC triggered an ordering transition, higher concentrations of EG4-LC (>2% wt/wt) prevented this ordering transition, consistent with a decrease in adsorption of BSA. This conclusion is supported by epifluorescence measurements using fluorescently labeled BSA and comparisons to LC interfaces at which EG4-containing lipids are adsorbed. Overall, these results demonstrate a general and facile approach to the design of LCs with interfaces that present biologically relevant chemical functional groups, assume well-defined orientations at aqueous interfaces, and lower non-specific protein adsorption. The bulk of the LC serves as a reservoir of EG4-LC, thus permitting easy preparation of these interfaces and the potential for spontaneous repair of the EG4-decorated interfaces during contact with biological systems.

Asymmetric vinylogous aldol reaction of silyloxy furans with a chiral organic salt.

Project description:Despite their synthetic significance there is a general lack of asymmetric vinylogous aldol reactions that tolerate variations of both the silyloxy furans and aldehydes. We have developed a new chiral organic catalyst based on a carboxylate-ammonium salt prepared from a thiourea-amine and a carboxylic acid. This new catalyst enabled us to develop an efficient asymmetric vinylogous aldol reaction of unprecedented scope with respect to both 2-trimethylsilyloxy furans and aldehydes.

Asymmetric Catalysis with Ethylene. Synthesis of Functionalized Chiral Enolates.

Project description:Trialkylsilyl enol ethers are versatile intermediates often used as enolate surrogates for the synthesis of carbonyl compounds. Yet there are no reports of broadly applicable, catalytic methods for the synthesis of chiral silyl enol ethers carrying latent functionalities useful for synthetic operations beyond the many possible reactions of the silyl enol ether moiety itself. Here we report a general procedure for highly catalytic (substrate:catalyst ratio up to 1000:1) and enantioselective (92% to 98% major enantiomer) synthesis of such compounds bearing a vinyl group at a chiral carbon at the ?-position. The reactions, run under ambient conditions, use trialkylsiloxy-1,3-dienes and ethylene (1 atm) as precursors and readily available (bis-phosphine)-cobalt(II) complexes as catalysts. The silyl enolates can be readily converted into novel enantiopure vinyl triflates, a class of highly versatile cross-coupling reagents, enabling the syntheses of other enantiomerically pure, stereodefined trisubstituted alkene intermediates not easily accessible by current methods. Examples of Kumada, Stille, and Suzuki coupling reactions are illustrated.

Chiral Imidazolium Prolinate Salts as Efficient Synzymatic Organocatalysts for the Asymmetric Aldol Reaction.

Project description:Chiral imidazolium l-prolinate salts, providing a complex network of supramolecular interaction in a chiral environment, have been studied as synzymatic catalytic systems. They are demonstrated to be green and efficient chiral organocatalysts for direct asymmetric aldol reactions at room temperature. The corresponding aldol products were obtained with moderate to good enantioselectivities. The influence of the presence of chirality in both the imidazolium cation and the prolinate anion on the transfer of chirality from the organocatalyst to the aldol product has been studied. Moreover, interesting match/mismatch situations have been observed regarding configuration of chirality of the two components through the analysis of results for organocatalysts derived from both enantiomers of prolinate (R/S) and the trans/cis isomers for the chiral fragment of the cation. This is associated with differences in the corresponding reaction rates but also to the different tendencies for the formation of aggregates, as evidenced by nonlinear effects studies (NLE). Excellent activities, selectivities, and enantioselectivities could be achieved by an appropriate selection of the structural elements at the cation and anion.

Poly(ethylene glycol) microparticles produced by precipitation polymerization in aqueous solution.

Project description:Methods were developed to perform precipitation photopolymerization of PEG-diacrylate. Previously, comonomers have been added to PEG when precipitation polymerization was desired. In the present method, the LCST of the PEG itself was lowered by the addition of the kosmotropic salt sodium sulfate to an aqueous solution. Typical of a precipitation polymerization, small microparticles or microspheres (1-5 ?m) resulted with relatively low polydispersity. However, aggregate formation was often severe, presumably because of a lack of stabilization of the phase-separated colloids. Microparticles were also produced by copoymerization of PEG-diacrylate with acrylic acid or aminoethylmethacrylate. The comonomers affected the zeta potential of the formed microparticles but not the size. The carboxyl groups of acrylic-acid-containing PEG microparticles were activated, and scaffolds were formed by mixing with amine-containing PEG microparticles. Although the scaffolds were relatively weak, human hepatoma cells showed excellent viability when present during microparticle cross-linking.

Accelerated Water Desorption of Oligomeric Poly(ethylene glycol) by Addition of Poly(propylene glycol) for Energy-Efficient Water Recovery Systems.

Project description:Adsorbents are used to recover water vapor from the atmosphere in desiccant air conditioning (DAC) and atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) systems. Solid adsorbents have been conventionally used in these systems, though liquid adsorbents are considered to be more effective for energy-efficient fluidic thermosystems because of their low regeneration temperatures (45-70 °C). While most previous studies have focused on improving the adsorption performance, the desorption performance of adsorbents can also be a critical factor in improving the energy efficiency of these systems. Thus, this study aimed to improve the water desorption efficiency, focusing on the liquid adsorbents. We found that mixing hydrophobic molecules into a liquid adsorbent decreases the desorption temperature and increases the water-desorption efficiency. Oligomeric poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), a common moisture-adsorbing liquid oligomer used in detergents and cosmetics, was selected as the liquid adsorbent. Oligomeric poly(propylene glycol) (PPG), which has a structure analogous to PEG and lower hygroscopicity, was selected as the hydrophobic molecule. Water adsorption and desorption experiments showed that the mixture of PPG with PEG promoted the desorption of water molecules beyond that of PEG, while thermogravimetric differential thermal analysis revealed a decrease in the water desorption temperature with increasing PPG content. The improved desorption efficiency was ascribed to the likely water adsorption equilibrium between PEG and PPG in the blend; water molecules are preferentially desorbed from PPG, which has weaker water-adsorbate interactions. The proposed concept is expected to be incorporated into various hygroscopic liquids to develop energy-efficient liquid adsorbents for DAC and AWH.

Polymer-Supported Poly(Ethylene Glycol) as a Phase-Transfer Catalyst for Cross-Aldol Condensation of Isobutyroaldehyde and Formaldehyde.

Project description:Immobilized poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG 600-PS) was used as an effective phase-transfer catalyst for the synthesis of hydroxypivaldehyde from isobutyraldehyde (IBA) and formaldehyde in the presence of an inorganic base. Studies on the influence of the parameters on the course of the reaction in a batch reactor showed that the use of the PEG 600-PS catalyst allowed one to obtain HPA with high efficiency (IBA conversion >96%, selectivity >98%) in a relatively short time and under mild conditions (2 h, 40 °C). The developed method enables easy separation of the post-reaction mixture by simple phase separation, and the immobilized catalyst can be separated by filtration and then used five times without a loss in its activity. The high activity and stability of the catalyst was also confirmed in a test carried out in a flow reactor.

Specific adsorption of histidine-tagged proteins on silica surfaces modified with Ni2+/NTA-derivatized poly(ethylene glycol).

Project description:Silica surfaces modified with nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA)-polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivatives were used to immobilize hexahistidine-tagged green fluorescent protein (His6-GFP), biotin/streptavidin-AlexaFluor555 (His6-biotin/SA-AF), and gramicidin A-containing vesicles (His6-gA). Three types of surface-reactive PEG derivatives-NTA-PEG3400-Si(OMe)3, NTA-PEG3400-vinylsulfone, and mPEG5000-Si(OMe)3 (control)-were grafted onto silica and tested for their ability to capture His6-tag species via His6/Ni2+/NTA chelation. The composition and thicknesses of the PEG-modified surfaces were characterized using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, contact angle, and ellipsometry. Protein capture efficiencies of the NTA-PEG-grafted surfaces were evaluated by measuring fluorescence intensities of these surfaces after exposure to His6-tag species. XPS and ellipsometry data indicate that surface adsorption occurs via specific interactions between the His6-tag and the Ni2+/NTA-PEG-grafted surface. Protein immobilization was most effective for NTA-PEG3400-Si(OMe)3-modified surfaces, with maximal areal densities achieved at 45 pmol/cm2 for His6-GFP and 95 fmol/cm2 for His6-biotin/SA-AF. Lipid vesicles containing His6-gA in a 1:375 gA/lipid ratio could also be immobilized on Ni2+/NTA-PEG3400-Si(OMe)3-modified surfaces at 0.5 mM total lipid. Our results suggest that NTA-PEG-Si(OMe)3 conjugates may be useful tools for immobilizing His6-tag proteins on solid surfaces to produce protein-functionalized surfaces.

Chemical Solution Deposition of Barium Titanate Thin Films with Ethylene Glycol as Solvent for Barium Acetate.

Project description:Chemical solution deposition (CSD) of BaTiO3 (BT) or BT-based thin films relies on using a carboxylic acid and alcohol as the solvents for alkaline-earth carboxylate and transition-metal alkoxide, respectively; however, the esterification reaction of the solvents may lead to in-situ water formation and precipitation. To avoid such an uncontrolled reaction, we developed a route in which ethylene glycol (EG) is used as the solvent for Ba-acetate. The EG-based BT coating solutions are stable for at least a few months. The thermal decomposition of the BT xerogel obtained by drying the EG-based solutions depends on the choice of the solvent for the Ti-alkoxide as well: in the case of EG and 2-methoxyethanol solvents carbon residues are removed at only about 1100 °C, while in the case of ethanol it is concluded at about 700 °C. About 100 nm thick BT films derived from the EG-ethanol solution deposited on platinized silicon reveal dense, crack-free columnar microstructure. They exhibit local ferro- and piezoelectric properties. The macroscopic polarization-electric field loops were obtained up to a quite high electric field of about 2.4 MV/cm. The EG-ethanol based CSD route is a viable alternative to the established acetic acid-alcohol route for BT and BT-based films.
