Anion binding by biotin[6]uril in water.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this contribution we show that the newly discovered 6 + 6 biotin-formaldehyde macrocycle Biotin[6]uril binds a variety of anionic guest molecules in water. We discuss how and why the anions are bound based on data obtained using NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), computational calculations and single crystal X-ray crystallography.

Bambus[6]uril as a novel macrocyclic receptor for the nitrate anion.
By using quantum mechanical DFT calculations, the most probable structure of the bambus[6]uril x NO3(-) anionic complex species was derived. In this complex having C3 symmetry, the nitrate anion NO3(-), included in the macrocyclic cavity, is bound by twelve weak hydrogen bonds between methine hydrogen atoms on the convex face of glycoluril units and the considered NO3(-) ion.
متن کاملChlorine anion encapsulation by molecular capsules based on cucurbit[5]uril and decamethylcucurbit[5]uril.
Three barrel-shaped artificial molecular capsules 1-3, based on normal cucurbit[5]uril (Q[5]) and decamethylcucurbit[5]uril (Me10Q[5]), were synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Encapsulation of a chlorine anion in the cavity of a Q[5] or Me10Q[5] to form closed a molecular capsule with the coordinated metal ions or coordinated metal ions and water mol...
متن کاملComplexation mechanism of cucurbit[6]uril with hexamethylene diammonium cations in saline solution.
Binding of cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]) with the hexamethylene diammonium cation (HD(2+)) in the presence of sodium ions is elucidated at the atomic level. The most probable complex of CB[6] in saline solution is found to be CB[6]:Na(+). A two-stage binding process of CB[6]:Na(+) with HD(2+) is proposed.
متن کاملCucurbit[6]uril is an ultrasensitive (129)Xe NMR contrast agent.
A lack of molecular contrast agents has slowed the application of ultrasensitive hyperpolarized (129)Xe NMR methods. Here, we report that commercially available cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]) undergoes rapid xenon exchange kinetics at 300 K, and is detectable by Hyper-CEST NMR at 1.8 pM in PBS and at 1 μM in human plasma where many molecules, including polyamines, can compete with xenon for CB[6] bind...
متن کاملIonic liquids as novel guests for cucurbit[6]uril in neutral water.
Cucurbit[6]uril was dissolved through encapsulation of an imidazolium-based ionic liquid guest in a pure water environment and the dissolution ability could be tuned by augmenting the imidazolium structure.
