چکیده

The mechanism and thermodynamic functions of the self-assembly of a family of covalently linked oligomeric naphthalenediimides (NDIs) were investigated through variable-temperature NMR and CD studies. The NDIs were shown to self-assemble into helical supramolecular nanotubes via an isodesmic polymerisation mechanism, and regardless of the oligomer length a surprising entropy-enthalpy compensation was observed.

Controlling the Assembly of Coiled–Coil Peptide Nanotubes

An ability to control the assembly of peptide nanotubes (PNTs) would provide biomaterials for applications in nanotechnology and synthetic biology. Recently, we presented a modular design for PNTs using α-helical barrels with tunable internal cavities as building blocks. These first-generation designs thicken beyond single PNTs. Herein we describe strategies for controlling this lateral associa...

Exploring the self-assembly of glycopeptides using a diphenylalanine scaffold.

Diphenylalanine, a key building block for organic nanotechnology, forms discrete, rigid and hollow nanotubes that are assembled spontaneously upon their dilution from organic phase into aqueous solution. Here we report the efficient preparation of several S-linked glycosylated diphenylalanine analogues bearing different monosaccharide, di-saccharide and sialic acid residues. The self-assembly s...

Preconcentration of Pb(II) by Graphene Oxide with Covalently Linked Porphyrin Adsorbed on Surfactant Coated C18 before Determination by FAAS

A simple, highly sensitive, accurate and selective method for determination of trace amounts of Pb(II) in water samples is presented. A novel Graphene oxide with covalently linked porphyrin solid-phase extraction adsorbent was synthesized by covalently linked porphyrin onto the surfaces of graphite oxides. The stability of a chemically (GO-H2P) especially in concentrated hydrochloric acid was s...

Self-assembly of diphenylalanine backbone homologues and their combination with functionalized carbon nanotubes.

The integration of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) into organized nanostructures is of great interest for applications in materials science and biomedicine. In this work we studied the self-assembly of β and γ homologues of diphenylalanine peptides under different solvent and pH conditions. We aimed to investigate the role of peptide backbone in tuning the formation of different types of nanostructures...

An effective nanostructured assembly for ion-selective electrodes. An ionophore covalently linked to carbon nanotubes for Pb2+ determination.

We report on the synthesis of a new hybrid material, i.e. benzo-18-crown-6 covalently linked to multi-wall carbon nanotubes, and its use in solid-state ion-selective electrodes both as a receptor and an ion-to-electron transducer. This new concept leads to potentiometric sensors with extremely high selectivity.
