Self-assembly of cyclic hexamers of γ-cyclodextrin in a metallosupramolecular framework with d-penicillamine.

ABSTRACT: Cyclodextrins are widely used cyclic oligosaccharides of d-glucose whose hydrophilic exterior is covered by hydroxyl groups and whose hydrophobic interior is surrounded by lipophilic moieties. Because of this structural feature, cyclodextrin molecules commonly aggregate into dimensional structures via intermolecular hydrogen bonds, and their aggregation into closed oligomeric architectures has been achieved only via the attachment of functional substituent groups to the cyclodextrin rings. Here, we report the first structurally characterized self-assembly of non-substituted γ-cyclodextrin molecules into cyclic hexamers, which was realized in a chiral coordination framework composed of complex-anions with d-penicillamine rather than l- or dl-penicillamine. The self-assembly is accompanied by the 3D-to-2D structural transformation of porous coordination frameworks to form helical hexagonal cavities that accommodate helical γ-cyclodextrin hexamers. This finding provides new insight into the development of cyclodextrin chemistry and host-guest chemistry based on chiral recognition and crystal engineering processes.

Control self-assembly of hydrazide-based cyclic hexamers: in or out.

Project description:By moving the alkoxy group on the spacer from position 5 to position 4 to add another protocol for the algorithm for intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bonding interactions, highly regioselectivity of noncovalent synthesis of the hydrazide-based cyclic hexamers was achieved: one out of thirteen possible isomeric cyclic hexamers selectively formed and thus precise control of the two hydrazide units in the cyclic hexamers (in or out) was accomplished.

Post-self-assembly covalent chemistry of discrete multicomponent metallosupramolecular hexagonal prisms.

Project description:The multicomponent coordination-driven self-assembly of hexakis[4-(4-pyridyl)phenyl]benzene, cis-(PEt(3))(2)Pt(II)(OTf)(2), and amine- or maleimide-functionalized isophthalate forms discrete hexagonal prisms as single reaction products. The amino or maleimide groups decorating the isophthalate pillars of the prisms provide reactive sites for post-self-asssembly modifications. In this communication, we demonstrate that the hexagonal prisms can be functionalized without disrupting the prismatic cores, enabling the incorporation of new functionalities under mild conditions.

Metallosupramolecular tetragonal prisms via multicomponent coordination-driven template-free self-assembly.

Project description:We present a general strategy for the synthesis of stable 3-D metallosupramolecular tetragonal prisms in which multicomponent coordination-driven self-assembly allows for single supramolecular species to be formed. The appropriate stoichiometric combination of a tetraphenylethylene-based tetratopic donor (1), a linear dipyridine donor (2), and a 90 degrees platinum metal complex (3) affords tetragonal prisms (4) as single products. The compounds have been characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. The size of the supramolecules was determined by pulsed-gradient spin-echo NMR and modeled with molecular force field simulation methods.

Construction of functionalized metallosupramolecular tetragonal prisms via multicomponent coordination-driven self-assembly.

Project description:A new approach for the construction of functionalized metallosupramolecular tetragonal prisms via multicomponent, coordination-driven, template-free self-assembly is described. The combination of tetra-(4-pyridylphenyl)ethylene, a 90° Pt(II) acceptor, and ditopic bipyridine or carboxylate ligands functionalized with hydroxyl or amine groups, hydrophobic alkyl chains, or electrochemically active ferrocene, yields a suite of seven self-assembled tetragonal prisms under mild conditions. These three-dimensional metallosupramolecules were characterized by multinuclear NMR ((31)P and (1)H) and mass spectrometry. Their shapes and sizes were established using Merck Molecular Force Field (MMFF) simulations. In addition, their approximate sizes were further supported by pulsed-field-gradient spin-echo (PGSE) NMR experiments.

Self-assembly of metallosupramolecular rhombi from chiral concave 9,9'-spirobifluorene-derived bis(pyridine) ligands.

Project description:Two new 9,9'-spirobifluorene-based bis(4-pyridines) were synthesised in enantiopure and one also in racemic form. These ligands act as concave templates and form metallosupramolecular [(dppp)2M2L2] rhombi with cis-protected [(dppp)Pd](2+) and [(dppp)Pt](2+) ions. The self-assembly process of the racemic ligand preferably occurs in a narcissistic self-recognising manner. Hence, a mixture of all three possible stereoisomers [(dppp)2M2{(R)-L}2](OTf)4, [(dppp)2M2{(S)-L}2](OTf)4, and [(dppp)2M2{(R)-L}{(S)-L}](OTf)4 was obtained in an approximate 1.5:1.5:1 ratio which corresponds to an amplification of the homochiral assemblies by a factor of approximately three as evidenced by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The racemic homochiral assemblies could also be characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction.

Giant capsids from lattice self-assembly of cyclodextrin complexes.

Project description:Proteins can readily assemble into rigid, crystalline and functional structures such as viral capsids and bacterial compartments. Despite ongoing advances, it is still a fundamental challenge to design and synthesize protein-mimetic molecules to form crystalline structures. Here we report the lattice self-assembly of cyclodextrin complexes into a variety of capsid-like structures such as lamellae, helical tubes and hollow rhombic dodecahedra. The dodecahedral morphology has not hitherto been observed in self-assembly systems. The tubes can spontaneously encapsulate colloidal particles and liposomes. The dodecahedra and tubes are respectively comparable to and much larger than the largest known virus. In particular, the resemblance to protein assemblies is not limited to morphology but extends to structural rigidity and crystallinity-a well-defined, 2D rhombic lattice of molecular arrangement is strikingly universal for all the observed structures. We propose a simple design rule for the current lattice self-assembly, potentially opening doors for new protein-mimetic materials.

Self-Assembly System Based on Cyclodextrin for Targeted Delivery of Cannabidiol.

Project description:Cannabidiol (CBD) is one specific kind of the cannabinoid in Cannabis sativa L with a wide range of pharmacological activities. However, the poor water solubility and specificity of CBD limits its application in pharmaceutical field. For solving these problems, in this work, we successfully prepared a targeted carrier by grafting biotin (BIO) onto ethylenediamine-β-Cyclodextrin (EN-CD) in a single step to generate a functionalized supramolecule, named BIO-CD. Subsequently, an amantadine-conjugated cannabinoids (AD-CBD) was prepared and self-assembled with the BIO-CD. A series of methods were used to characterize the inclusion behavior and physicochemical properties of AD-CBD and BIO-CD. The results showed that AD-CBD entered the cavity of BIO-CD and formed a 1:1 host-guest inclusion complex. MTT assay and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) revealed that the targeting effect and anticancer activity of AD-CBD/BIO-CD inclusion complex against three human cancer cell lines were higher than BIO-CD, AD-CBD and free CBD. Moreover, the inclusion complex could release drugs under weakly acidic conditions. These results demonstrated that AD-CBD/BIO-CD inclusion complex possess excellent targeted and anticancer activity, which is hopeful to be applied in clinic as a new therapeutic approach.

Cyclodextrin Modulated Type I Collagen Self-Assembly to Engineer Biomimetic Cornea Implants.

Project description:Collagen-rich tissues in the cornea exhibit unique and highly organized extracellular matrix ultrastructures, which contribute to its high load-bearing capacity and light transmittance. Corneal collagen fibrils are controlled during development by small leucine-rich proteoglycans (SLRPs) that regulate the fibril diameter and spacing in order to achieve the unique optical transparency. Cyclodextrins (CDs) of varying size and chemical functionality for their ability to regulate collagen assembly during vitrification process are screened in order to create biosynthetic materials that mimic the native cornea structure. Addition of βCD to collagen vitrigels produces materials with aligned fibers and lamellae similar to native cornea, resulting in mechanically robust and transparent materials. Biochemistry analysis revealed that CD interacts with hydrophobic amino acids in collagen to influence assembly and fibril organization. To translate the self-assembled collagen materials for cornea reconstruction, custom molds for gelation and vitrification are engineered to create βCD/Col implants with curvature matching that of the cornea. Acellular βCD/Col materials are implanted in a rabbit partial keratoplasty model with interrupted sutures. The implants demonstrate tissue integration and support re-epithelialization. Therefore, the addition of CD molecules regulates collagen self-assembly and provides a simple process to engineer corneal mimetic substitutes with advanced structural and functional properties.

Self-assembly of cyclic peptide monolayers by hydrophobic supramolecular hinges.

Project description:Supramolecular polymerisation of two-dimensional (2D) materials requires monomers with non-covalent binding motifs that can control the directionality of both dimensions of growth. A tug of war between these propagation forces can bias polymerisation in either direction, ultimately determining the structure and properties of the final 2D ensemble. Deconvolution of the assembly dynamics of 2D supramolecular systems has been widely overlooked, making monomer design largely empirical. It is thus key to define new design principles for suitable monomers that allow the control of the direction and the dynamics of two-dimensional self-assembled architectures. Here, we investigate the sequential assembly mechanism of new monolayer architectures of cyclic peptide nanotubes by computational simulations and synthesised peptide sequences with selected mutations. Rationally designed cyclic peptide scaffolds are shown to undergo hierarchical self-assembly and afford monolayers of supramolecular nanotubes. The particular geometry, the rigidity and the planar conformation of cyclic peptides of alternating chirality allow the orthogonal orientation of hydrophobic domains that define lateral supramolecular contacts, and ultimately direct the propagation of the monolayers of peptide nanotubes. A flexible 'tryptophan hinge' at the hydrophobic interface was found to allow lateral dynamic interactions between cyclic peptides and thus maintain the stability of the tubular monolayer structure. These results unfold the potential of cyclic peptide scaffolds for the rational design of supramolecular polymerisation processes and hierarchical self-assembly across the different dimensions of space.

Cyclodextrin-covered organic nanotubes derived from self-assembly of dendrons and their supramolecular transformation.

Project description:The dendritic building blocks with a focal pyrene unit self-organize into vesicles in aqueous phase. The in situ inclusion of the focal pyrene units into the cavity of beta- or gamma-cyclodextrin (CD) induces self-assembled organic nanotubes with an average outer diameter of approximately 45 nm and inner diameter of 22 nm. The surface of the nanotube is covered with CD. Therefore, the functional group on the surface of the nanotube is controlled simply by modifying the functionality of CD. The removal of CD from the nanotube with poly(propylene glycol) reversibly generates vesicles. This work provides an efficient methodology not only to create an additional class of CD-covered organic nanotubes but also to exhibit reversible transformation of nanotubes and vesicles triggered by the motifs of dendron self-assembly, CD inclusion, and pseudorotaxane formation.
