Triangular assembly through charged hydrogen bonds in polar solvent.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have demonstrated a triangular assembly driven by 12 charged hydrogen bonds and pi-pi interactions. This assembly is stable even in polar solvents because of its charged hydrogen-bond nature. Helical arrangement of the complex is confirmed by its crystal structure. A solution structure is assigned to the D(3) isomer corresponding to the solid-state structure by temperature-dependent (1)H NMR experiments.

Hydrogen bonding vs. halogen bonding: the solvent decides.
Control of intermolecular interactions is integral to harnessing self-assembly in nature. Here we demonstrate that control of the competition between hydrogen bonds and halogen bonds, the two most highly studied directional intermolecular interactions, can be exerted by choice of solvent (polarity) to direct the self-assembly of co-crystals. Competitive co-crystal formation has been investigate...
متن کاملRotational Relaxation in Polar Solvents. Molecular Dynamics Study of Solute-Solvent Interaction
Spectroscopic and molecular dynamics (MD) studies of organic dye molecules in polar solvents are performed to investigate the nature of solute-solvent interactions. Experimental and MD data demonstrate that positively charged molecules rotate more slowly than neutral and negatively charged solutes in polar aprotic solvents. MD simulations of the resorufin, resorufamine, and thionine molecules i...
متن کاملInteraction of urea with amino acids: implications for urea-induced protein denaturation.
The molecular mechanism of urea-induced protein denaturation is not yet fully understood. Mainly two opposing mechanisms are controversially discussed, according to which either hydrophobic, or polar interactions are the dominant driving force. To resolve this question, we have investigated the interactions between urea and all 20 amino acids by comprehensive molecular dynamics simulations of 2...
متن کاملInterior-filled self-assemblies of tyrosyl bolaamphiphiles regulated by hydrogen bonds.
Bolaamphiphilic molecules with tyrosyl end groups formed interior-filled spherical self-assemblies, which are distinct from the vesicular or tubular structures of other similar peptidic bolaamphiphile assemblies reported in the literature. In this study, the self-assembly mechanism of these tyrosyl bolaamphiphiles was investigated taking into consideration the solvent effects on the molecular i...
متن کاملTolerance to the substitution of buried apolar residues by charged residues in the homologous protein structures.
Occurrence and accommodation of charged amino acid residues in proteins that are structurally equivalent to buried non-polar residues in homologues have been investigated. Using a dataset of 1,852 homologous pairs of crystal structures of proteins available at 2A or better resolution, 14,024 examples of apolar residues in the structurally conserved regions replaced by charged residues in homolo...
