Polymeric synthetic host , azacrown-attached 2,6-pyridylene ethynylene polymer, was investigated for its saccharide recognition and the additive effect of triethylene tetramine-trifluoroacetic acid; heteroallosteric effects were observed on the basis of CD and UV/Vis analyses, which indicated saccharide-dependent stabilization and destabilization of helical complexes by the formation of pseudop...

A method for the synthesis of long chain diamines and tetramines starting from natural α-amino acids is reported. Diamines and tetramines were prepared through the Wittig olefination reaction of N-protected amino aldehydes obtained from phenylalanine and lysine. A 1,2,17,18-tetramine was synthesized using (2S)-1-azido-2-[bis(tertbutoxycarbonyl)-amino]-5-oxopentane as key-intermediate compound.

There is a monography of Triethylenetetramine dichlorhydrate (Trientine) in the United States Pharmacopeia. But neither the base nor the salts di- or tetra-chlorhydrate are in the European Pharmacopeia. Triethylène tetramine tetrachlorhydrate, used by AGEPS now as matural, is more soluble then triethylene tetramine dichlorhydrate. It is administred to patients with Wilson's disease, which resul...

Silica-bonded n-propyltriethylene-tetramine (SBNPTT) was found as an efficient solid base for the synthesis of 2-amino-5-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-chromenes. Chromene derivatives were obtained via the three-component condensation reaction of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile, and dimedone at 80 oC under solvent-free conditions. The heterogeneous solid base showed much the same efficiency when u...
