چکیده

We report here the first study of the protonated, neutral form of tetrazoles as anion binding functional groups. Our studies reveal them to be capable of binding anions with extremely high potency in polar solutions. In studying carboxylic acid-containing congeners, we find a remarkable discrepancy: a strictly analogous acid-containing host binds anions > or = 50,000-fold more weakly than the tetrazole under study. We can explain this functional difference by considering tetrazole tautomerization equilibria and carboxylic acid conformational preferences.

Recognition properties of carboxylic acid bioisosteres: anion binding by tetrazoles, aryl sulfonamides, and acyl sulfonamides on a calix[4]arene scaffold.

Tetrazoles and acyl sulfonamides are functional groups that are common in medicinal chemistry but virtually unexplored as recognition elements in supramolecular chemistry. We report here on the anion binding properties of these highly acidic N-H functional groups. We have prepared two new calixarene-based tetrazole-containing hosts, as well as new acetyl sulfonamide and benzoyl sulfonamide host...

Safe and efficient tetrazole synthesis in a continuous-flow microreactor.

Tetrazoles are an important class of heterocycles in a wide range of applications, such as, organocatalysis and transition metal catalysis, propellants, explosives, and perhaps most commonly, as nonclassical isosteres of carboxylic acids in medicinal chemistry. This broad utility has prompted significant effort toward tetrazole synthesis, and notable among these is that of Sharpless, in which a...

Ferric Hydrogensulfate [Fe(HSO4)3] As a Reusable Heterogeneous Catalyst for the Synthesis of 5-Substituted-1H-Tetrazoles and Amides

Ferric hydrogensulfate catalyzed the synthesis of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles via [2 + 3] cycloaddition of nitriles and sodium azide. This method has the advantages of high yields, simple methodology, and easy workup. The catalyst can be recovered by simple filtration and reused delivering good yields. Also, ferric hydrogensulfate catalyzed the hydrolysis of nitriles to primary amides under aqu...

Design, sythesis and evaluation of a series of 3- or 4-alkoxy substituted phenoxy derivatives as PPARs agonists

Peroxisome proliferators-activated receptors (PPARα, γ and δ) are potentially effective targets for Type 2 diabetes mellitus therapy. The severe effects of known glitazones and the successfully approved agents (saroglitazar and lobeglitazone) motivated us to study novelly potent PPARs drugs with improved safety profile. In this work, we received 15 carboxylic acids based on the combination prin...

Determination of Carboxylic Acids in Apple Juice by RP HPLC

Low molecular weight organic acids are most predominant in apple juice among these components fumaric acid was not exceed more than 5 ppm. It was thought that the HPLC is the best method of the determination of organic acids in the apple juice. In this study, chromatographic separation of organic acids of apple juice was obtained by preparing a sample and by applying them to acid phase for ...
