Micellar aggregates and hydrogels from phosphonobile salts.

چکیده
The aggregation properties of novel bile acid analogs-phosphonobile salts (PBS)-have been studied. The critical micellar concentration of 23 and 24-phosphonobile salts were measured using fluorescence and 31P NMR methods. All the ten synthesized phosphonobile salts formed gels at different pH ranges in water. The pH range at which individual PBSs could gelate water was narrow and influenced by the number and conformation of hydroxyl groups. A reversible thermochromic system has been developed (with 23-phosphonodeoxycholate at pH 3.3), which changes color upon gelation. The investigation of the first hydrogels derived from trihydroxy bile acid analogs 1 and 6 was made using fluorescence, 31P NMR, X-ray crystallography, circular dichroism and SEM. The present studies reveal that the gel network consists of a chiral, fibrous structure possessing hydrophobic interiors.

Synthesis and in vitro cholesterol dissolution by 23- and 24-phosphonobile acids.
A new class of 23- and 24-phosphonobile acids have been synthesized from bile acid and their in vitro cholesterol-dissolving efficiency have been estimated. 24-Phosphonobile salts (PBSs) are slightly more efficient in solubilizing cholesterol than 23-PBSs and natural bile salts. The cholesterol solubilizing power is influenced by the structure of PBSs, and is considerably reduced with an increa...
متن کاملEffect of monovalent-divalent cation exchange on the swelling of polyacrylate hydrogels in physiological salt solutions.
The volume transition induced by monovalent-divalent cation exchange of fully neutralized polyacrylate hydrogels was investigated in aqueous NaCl solutions. The variation of the osmotic swelling pressure, shear modulus, and mixing pressure was measured when Na(+) ions were substituted by divalent or trivalent cations. Alkali metal salts move freely throughout the entirely network, and alkaline ...
متن کاملConductivity-Dependent Flow Field-Flow Fractionation of Fulvic and Humic Acid Aggregates
Fulvic (FAs) and humic acids (HAs) are chemically fascinating. In water, they have a strong propensity to aggregate, but this research reveals that tendency is regulated by ionic strength. In the environment, conductivity extremes occur naturally—freshwater to seawater—warranting consideration at low and high values. The flow field flow fractionation (flow FFF) of FAs and HAs is observed to be ...
متن کاملHydrogels with Micellar Hydrophobic (Nano)Domains
*Correspondence: Miloslav Pekař , Faculty of Chemistry, Brno University of Technology, Purkyňova 118, Brno 612 00, Czech Republic e-mail: [email protected] Hydrogels containing hydrophobic domains or nanodomains, especially of the micellar type, are reviewed. Examples of the reasons for introducing hydrophobic domains into hydrophilic gels are given; typology of these materials is introduced. ...
متن کاملLinking micellar structures to hydrogelation for salt-triggered dipeptide gelators.
Some functionalised dipeptides can form hydrogels when salts are added to solutions at high pH. We have used surface tension, conductivity, rheology, optical, confocal and scanning electron microscopy, (1)H NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopy measurements to characterise fully the phase behaviour of solutions of one specific gelator, 2NapFF, at 25 °C at pH 10.5. We show that this specific naphthalene-d...
