Amphiphilic conjugated thiophenes for self-assembling antenna systems in water.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Newly developed conjugated terthiophene surfactants are able to aggregate in water and to act as a host for hydrophobic chromophores, creating a multiple donor-acceptor energy transfer (ET) system by self-assembly.

Fully conjugated macrocycles composed of thiophenes, acetylenes, and ethylenes*
Fully conjugated π-expanded macrocyclic oligothiophenes with 24π to 180π electron systems have been synthesized using a modified McMurry coupling reaction as the key step. For the synthesis of cyclo[n](2,5-thienylene-ethynylene)s composed of thiophenes and acetylenes, bromination-dehydrobromination and double elimination procedure were employed. X-ray analyses of macrocyclic oligothiophenes wit...
متن کاملA novel amphiphilic pincer palladium complex: design, preparation and self-assembling behavior.
Amphiphilic pincer palladium complexes bearing hydrophilic and hydrophobic side chains on the planar NCN palladium pincer backbone were designed and prepared via the ligand introduction route. The complexes self-assembled under aqueous conditions to form vesicles with bilayer membranes containing palladium species. The catalytic activity of the vesicles in the Miyaura-Michael reaction in water ...
متن کاملBicontinuous surfaces in self-assembling amphiphilic systems
Amphiphiles are molecules which have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic parts. In waterand/or oil-like solvent, they self-assemble into extended sheet-like structures due to the hydrophobic effect. The free energy of an amphiphilic system can be written as a functional of its interfacial geometry, and phase diagrams can be calculated by comparing the free energies following from different geometr...
متن کاملSelf-assembling dipeptide-based nontoxic vesicles as carriers for drugs and other biologically important molecules.
Self-assembling short peptides can offer an opportunity to make useful nano-/microstructures that find potential application in drug delivery. We report here the formation of multivesicular structures from self-assembling water-soluble synthetic amphiphilic dipeptides containing a glutamic acid residue at the C-terminus. These vesicular structures are stable over a wide range of pH (pH 2-12). H...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a common reason of brain tissue loss as a result of tumors, accidents, and surgeries. Renewal of the brain parenchyma is restricted by many reasons such as inimical substances produced as the result of trauma and also inflammatory responses. A strong cascade of inflammatory responses begins as a result of TBI which include recalling peripheral leukocytes into the...
