Palladium- or proton-induced submicro spherical aggregation of macrocyclic amphiphiles in aqueous solution.

چکیده
Synthetic amphiphiles have been found to self-assemble into a variety of structures such as micelles, vesicles, cylinders and lamellae in aqueous media over many length scales. We report herein cation-induced aggregation of hexaaza-cyclophanes in water. Pd(2+)- or proton-induced formation of submicro spherical aggregates was observed by several spectroscopic and microscopic methods.

Molecular Packing in Cylindrical Micelles
The elongated shape of linear, worm-like, micelles is among the most common aggregation geometries of amphiphilic molecules in aqueous solutions. The cylindrical body of these uni-dimensional micelles can be regarded as an intermediate packing geometry, of a higher growth dimensionality than that of a spherical micelle and lower than that of a planar bilayer. In all these three canonical struct...
متن کاملSyntheses, solid state and solution structures of the palladium(II) complexes of malonamide-derived open-chain and macrocyclic ligands.
The crystal structures of the palladium(II) complexes of the open-chain and macrocyclic ligands PdL(1).3H(2)O, PdL(2).6H(2)O and PdL(3).5H(2)O have been determined (H(2)L(1) = 1,4,8,11-tetraazaundecane-5,7-dione, H(2)L(2) = 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane-5,7-dione, H(2)L(3) = 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotridecane-5,7-dione). The coordination polyhedra of the palladium(II) ions in all complexes are...
متن کاملAggregation behavior of giant amphiphiles prepared by cofactor reconstitution.
We report on biohybrid surfactants, termed "giant amphiphiles", in which a protein or an enzyme acts as the polar head group and a synthetic polymer as the apolar tail. It is demonstrated that the modification of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and myoglobin (Mb) with an apolar polymer chain through the cofactor reconstitution method yields giant amphiphiles that form spherical aggregates (vesicle...
متن کاملAggregation of p-Sulfonatocalixarene-Based Amphiphiles and Supra-Amphiphiles
p-Sulfonatocalixarenes are a special class of water soluble macrocyclic molecules made of 4-hydroxybenzenesulfonate units linked by methylene bridges. One of the main features of these compounds relies on their ability to form inclusion complexes with cationic and neutral species. This feature, together with their water solubility and apparent biological compatibility, had enabled them to emerg...
متن کاملWater-supported organized structures based on wedge-shaped amphiphilic derivatives of dipyrrolyldiketone boron complexes.
Wedge-shaped amphiphilic derivatives of 1,3-dipyrrolyl-1,3-propanedione boron complexes, with one or no aliphatic chains attached at one aryl moiety and three hydrophilic chains at the other, exhibited formation of assembled structures in aqueous solutions. UV/vis, fluorescence and DLS analyses suggested that the wedge-shaped amphiphiles exist in assembled modes in the solution state, and TEM m...
