Intramolecular amide stacking and its competition with hydrogen bonding in a small foldamer.

Attractive interactions between two carboxamide groups in a "stacked" geometry are explored under isolated molecule conditions. Infrared spectra of single conformations of a small gamma-peptide, Ac-gamma(2)-hPhe-NHMe, reveal the presence of a conformation in which the two amide planes are approximately parallel with the amide dipoles in an antialigned orientation. This stacked conformation is e...

A chiral indolocarbazole foldamer displaying strong circular dichroism responsive to anion binding.

A chiral foldamer that consists of three indolocarbazoles and chiral amide residues folds into a helical conformation with the orientation bias, thus displaying characteristic CD signals. The X-ray crystal structure of its chloride complex was found to be a left-handed (M-) helix which stacks to give one-dimensional columnar arrays.

Study on Synthesis and Characterization of Unsaturated Poly (ester-amide) as Bone Fixation Materials

A new type of unsaturated poly ester-amide was prepared by melt polycondensation and characterized completely. Influence of heat treatment conditions and cross-linking content on mechanical and degradation properties of unsaturated polyester-amide were studied. Results suggested that the newly synthesized unsaturated poly(ester-amide) possessed good heat stabilization properties. Mechanical...

A Foldamer-Dendrimer Conjugate Neutralizes Synaptotoxic β-Amyloid Oligomers

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Unnatural self-organizing biomimetic polymers (foldamers) emerged as promising materials for biomolecule recognition and inhibition. Our goal was to construct multivalent foldamer-dendrimer conjugates which wrap the synaptotoxic β-amyloid (Aβ) oligomers with high affinity through their helical foldamer tentacles. Oligomeric Aβ species play pivotal role in Alzheimer's disease...

Cholate-glutamic acid hybrid foldamer and its fluorescent detection of Zn2+.

A hybrid foldamer containing six cholate units and two glutamic acids was labeled with two pyrenyl groups at the chain ends. Folding was particularly favorable in the presence of zinc(II), as shown by the enhanced emission of the pyrene excimer. The sensitivity of the detection depended on the relative population of the folded and unfolded conformers, being highest when about 90% of the foldame...
