Deep cavitand receptors with pH-independent water solubility.

چکیده
Pendant oligoethyleneglycol groups confer water solubility to a cavitand over a wide pH range. The kinetic stability of the host-guest complexes reveals an effective stabilization through hydrogen bonding even in the highly competitive aqueous environment.

Complexation of alkyl groups and ghrelin in a deep, water-soluble cavitand.
A cavitand with ionic, but nonionizable "feet" folds around hydrophobic guests in D2O. Short alkanes and ibuprofen are included and exchange rates are slow on the NMR timescale. Normal octanoyl groups show good affinity for the cavitand and the gastric peptide ghrelin is bound at low pH and physiological temperature.
متن کامل1H NMR detection of small molecules in human urine with a deep cavitand synthetic receptor.
A water-soluble deep cavitand recognized alkylammonium salts, including the drug amantadine hydrochloride, in spiked samples of human urine. The signals of the guests are detected by (1)H NMR upfield of 0 ppm and so occur in a spectroscopic window that is outside of the normal region and distinct from the signals of the biofluid components.
متن کاملRecognition and sequestration of ω-fatty acids by a cavitand receptor.
One of the largest driving forces for molecular association in aqueous solution is the hydrophobic effect, and many synthetic receptors with hydrophobic interiors have been devised for molecular recognition studies in water. Attempts to create the longer, narrower cavities appropriate for long-chain fatty acids have been thwarted by solvophobic collapse of the synthetic receptors, giving struct...
متن کاملNormal hydrocarbons tumble rapidly in a deep, water-soluble cavitand.
A deep, water-soluble cavitand extracts n-alkanes and other water-insoluble species into its cavity via hydrophobic forces: alkanes bind in a helical manner, and tumble rapidly on the NMR timescale inside the binding pocket.
متن کاملGuest-mediated switching of the assembly state of a water-soluble deep-cavity cavitand.
Deep-cavity cavitand TEMOA (2) is shown to assemble via the hydrophobic effect into tetrameric and hexameric assemblies. With inner volumes of 1400-1500 Å(3) and 3200-3700 Å(3) respectively, these well-defined and mono-dispersed assemblies represent the largest of their type to date.
