Imprinted micelles for chiral recognition in water: shape, depth, and number of recognition sites.

ABSTRACT: Chiral molecular recognition is important to biology, separation, and asymmetric catalysis. Because there is no direct correlation between the chiralities of the host and the guest, it is difficult to design a molecular receptor for a chiral guest in a rational manner. By cross-linking surfactant micelles containing chiral template molecules, we obtained chiral nanoparticle receptors for a number of 4-hydroxyproline derivatives. Molecular imprinting allowed us to transfer the chiral information directly from the guest to host, making the molecular recognition between the two highly predictable. Hydrophobic interactions between the host and the guest contributed strongly to the enantio- and diastereoselective differentiation of these compounds in water, whereas ion-pair interactions, which happened near the surface of the micelle, were less discriminating. The chiral recognition could be modulated by tuning the size and shape of the binding pockets.

Zwitterionic Molecularly Imprinted Cross-Linked Micelles for Alkaloid Recognition in Water.

Project description:Molecular imprinting within surface/core doubly cross-linked micelles afforded water-soluble nanoparticle receptors for their template molecules. Extremely strong imprinting effects were consistently observed, with the imprinting factor >100:1 in comparison to nonimprinted nanoparticles prepared without the templates. The ionic nature of the cross-linkable surfactant strongly impacted the imprinting and binding process. Imprinted receptors prepared with a zwitterionic cross-linkable surfactant (4) outperformed a similar cationic one (1) when the template was zwitterionic or cationic and preferred their templates over structural analogues regardless of their ionic characteristics. Electrostatic interactions, however, dominated the receptors made with the cationic surfactant. The same micellar imprinting applied to simple as well as complex alkaloids. Imprinted receptors from 4 were also shown to categorize their alkaloid guests according to their structural similarity.

Selective Recognition of d-Aldohexoses in Water by Boronic Acid-Functionalized, Molecularly Imprinted Cross-Linked Micelles.

Project description:Molecular imprinting within cross-linked micelles using 4-vinylphenylboronate derivatives of carbohydrates provided water-soluble nanoparticle receptors selective for the carbohydrate templates. Complete differentiation of d-aldohexoses could be achieved by these receptors if a single inversion of hydroxyl occurred at C2 or C4 of the sugar or if two or more inversions took place. Glycosides with a hydrophobic aglycan displayed stronger binding due to increased hydrophobic interactions.

Controlling the growth and shape of chiral supramolecular polymers in water.

Project description:A challenging target in the noncovalent synthesis of nanostructured functional materials is the formation of uniform features that exhibit well-defined properties, e.g., precise control over the aggregate shape, size, and stability. In particular, for aqueous-based one-dimensional supramolecular polymers, this is a daunting task. Here we disclose a strategy based on self-assembling discotic amphiphiles that leads to the control over stack length and shape of ordered, chiral columnar aggregates. By balancing out attractive noncovalent forces within the hydrophobic core of the polymerizing building blocks with electrostatic repulsive interactions on the hydrophilic rim we managed to switch from elongated, rod-like assemblies to small and discrete objects. Intriguingly this rod-to-sphere transition is expressed in a loss of cooperativity in the temperature-dependent self-assembly mechanism. The aggregates were characterized using circular dichroism, UV and 1H-NMR spectroscopy, small angle X-ray scattering, and cryotransmission electron microscopy. In analogy to many systems found in biology, mechanistic details of the self-assembly pathways emphasize the importance of cooperativity as a key feature that dictates the physical properties of the produced supramolecular polymers.

Synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymers using a functionalized initiator for chiral-selective recognition of propranolol.

Project description:We present a new concept of synthesis for preparation of molecularly imprinted polymers using a functionalized initiator to replace the traditional functional monomer. Using propranolol as a model template, a carboxyl-functionalized radical initiator was demonstrated to lead to high-selectivity polymer particles prepared in a standard precipitation polymerization system. When a single enantiomer of propranolol was used as template, the imprinted polymer particles exhibited clear chiral selectivity in an equilibrium binding experiment. Unlike the previous molecular imprinting systems where the active free radicals can be distant from the template-functional monomer complex, the method reported in this work makes sure that the actual radical polymerization takes place in the vicinity of the template-associated functional groups. The success of using functional initiator to synthesize molecularly imprinted polymers brings in new possibilities to improve the functional performance of molecularly imprinted synthetic receptors.

Water loading driven size, shape, and composition of cetyltrimethylammonium/hexanol/pentane reverse micelles.

Project description:Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)/hexanol reverse micelles have found a variety of applications that demand control over physical parameters. Water content or loading is among the most basic tunable components and is the major driver of the physical properties of these systems. This study uses small-angle scattering with contrast variation to characterize these systems as a function of water loading. The scattering data were analyzed with a variety of approaches, resulting in converging physical specifications. Equations that describe basic physical parameters were determined that allow for characterization and manipulation of the CTAB/hexanol reverse micelle surfactant system. The shape of the reverse micelles was revealed to be slightly ellipsoidal and varies slightly through the water loading range. The surfactant shell is shown to contain a higher fraction of hexanol upon addition of water. Analysis reveals that the size, shape, and surfactant/cosurfactant composition are directly tunable by variation of the water content and that these properties are consequences of the balance of forces present in the reverse micelles.

Oxidation of Sodium Deoxycholate Catalyzed by Gold Nanoparticles and Chiral Recognition Performances of Bile Salt Micelles.

Project description:Au nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by UV light irradiation of a mixed solution of HAuCl4 and sodium deoxycholate (NaDC) under alkaline condition, in which NaDC served as both reducing agent and capping agent. The reaction was monitored by circular dichroism (CD) spectra, and it was found that the formed gold NPs could catalyze the oxidation of NaDC. A CD signal at ~283 nm in the UV region was observed for the oxidation product of NaDC. The intensity of the CD signal of the oxidation product was enhanced gradually with the reaction time. Electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectra and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra were carried out to determine the chemical composition of the oxidation product, revealing that NaDC was selectively oxidized to sodium 3-keto-12-hydroxy-cholanate (3-KHC). The chiral discrimination abilities of the micelles of NaDC and its oxidation product, 3-KHC, were investigated by using chiral model molecules R,S-1,1'-Binaphthyl-2,2'-diyl hydrogenphosphate (R,S-BNDHP). Compared with NaDC, the micelles of 3-KHC displayed higher binding ability to the chiral model molecules. In addition, the difference in binding affinity of 3-KHC micelles towards R,S-isomer was observed, and S-isomer was shown to preferentially bind to the micelles.

Synthesis and anion recognition properties of shape-persistent binaphthyl-containing chiral macrocyclic amides.

Project description:We report on the synthesis and characterization of novel shape-persistent, optically active arylamide macrocycles, which can be obtained using a one-pot methodology. Resolved, axially chiral binol scaffolds, which incorporate either methoxy or acetoxy functionalities in the 2,2' positions and carboxylic functionalities in the external 3,3' positions, were used as the source of chirality. Two of these binaphthyls are joined through amidation reactions using rigid diaryl amines of differing shapes, to give homochiral tetraamidic macrocycles. The recognition properties of these supramolecular receptors have been analyzed, and the results indicate a modulation of binding affinities towards dicarboxylate anions, with a drastic change of binding mode depending on the steric and electronic features of the functional groups in the 2,2' positions.

Helical supramolecular polymers with rationally designed binding sites for chiral guest recognition.

Project description:Since various helical supramolecular polymers became available, their application to molecular chirality recognition have been anticipated but not extensively studied. So far, only a few examples of chiral reactions have been reported, but none for chiral separation. Here, we report the application of a helical supramolecular polymer to the enantio-separation of chiral guest molecules. The monomer of this supramolecular polymer is the salt-pair of a dendritic carboxylic acid with an enantiopure amino alcohol. In an apolar solvent, this salt-pair stacks via hydrogen bonds to form a helical polymer. In conjunction with this carboxylic acid, various amino alcohols afford supramolecular polymers, whose helical handedness is determined by the stereochemistry of the amino alcohols. When two salts with the same chirality are mixed, they undergo copolymerization, while those with opposite chirality do not. Owing to this stereoselective copolymerizability, the helical supramolecular polymer could bias the enantiomeric composition of chiral amino alcohols.

Detection of SARS-COV-2 by functionally imprinted micelles.

Project description:The near real-time detection of airborne particles-of-interest is needed for avoiding current/future threats. The incorporation of imprinted particles into a micelle-based electrochemical cell produced a signal when brought into contact with particle analytes (such as SARS-COV-2), previously imprinted onto the structure. Nanoamp scales of signals were generated from what may've been individual virus-micelle interactions. The system showed selectivity when tested against similar size and morphology particles. The technology was compatible with airborne aerosol sampling techniques. Overall, the application of imprinted micelle technology could provide near real-time detection methods to a host of possible analytes of interest in the field.Graphical abstractSupplementary informationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1557/s43579-022-00242-0.

Oriented, molecularly imprinted cavities with dual binding sites for highly sensitive and selective recognition of cortisol.

Project description:Novel, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) were developed for the highly sensitive and selective recognition of the stress marker cortisol. Oriented, homogeneous cavities with two binding sites for cortisol were fabricated by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization, using a cortisol motif template molecule (TM1) which consists of a polymerizable moiety attached at the 3-carbonyl group of cortisol via an oxime linkage and an adamantane carboxylate moiety coupled with the 21-hydroxyl group. TM1 was orientationally immobilized on a β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-grafted gold-coated sensor chip by inclusion of the adamantane moiety of TM1, followed by copolymerization of a hydrophilic comonomer, 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine, with or without a cross-linker, N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide. Subsequent cleavage of the oxime linkage leaves the imprinted cavities that contain dual binding sites-namely, the aminooxy group and β-CD-capable of oxime formation and hydrophobic interaction, respectively. As an application, MIP-based picomolar level detection of cortisol was demonstrated by a competitive binding assay using a fluorescent competitor. Cross-linking of the MIP imparts rigidity to the binding cavities, and improves the selectivity and sensitivity significantly, reducing the limit of detection to 4.8 pM. In addition, detection of cortisol in saliva samples was demonstrated as a feasibility study.
