Collision-activated dissociation mass spectra of crown ethers,perfluorinated crown ethers and related macrocycles

The collision-activated dissociation (CAD) mass spectra for a series of crown ethers, perfluoro crown ethers, cryptands and several dicyclohexano substituted crown ethers are reported. The CAD spectra were acquired with a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer, and in some cases spectra were recorded as a function of collision energy. In general, the protonated crown ethers dissociate via a series of losses of C₂H₄O units. The perfluoro crown ethers dissociate predominantly via losses of C₂F₄O units. The dicyclohexano ethers fragment in analogous ways in conjunction with cleavage of the cyclohexano rings. CAD spectra are also reported for acyclic ether systems.     

Horning-crown macrocycles: novel hybrids of calixarenes and crown ethers

[reaction: see text] Novel macrocycles possessing ether linkages and 2,6-disubstituted phenolics were produced in one step and with 100% atom economy by isoaromatization of chameleon macrocyclic precursors possessing 2,6-diarylidenecyclohexanone moieties. Intramolecular hydrogen bonding of the phenolic hydrogen atoms influenced the shape of the macrocycles and dictated host-guest behavior.     

Dibenzotetraaza crown ethers: a new family of crown ethers based on o-phenylenediamine

Dibenzotetraaza (DBTA) crown ethers possess two o-phenylenediamine moieties. They are homologues of dibenzo crown ether phase-transfer catalysts and were prepared from the condensation of benzimidazoles with oligo(ethyleneglycol) dichlorides and oligo(ethyleneglycol) ditosylates. Compounds with ring sizes ranging from 18-crown-6 to 42-crown-14 were prepared. In addition, various altered benzimidizoles were used to produce DBTA crown ethers with modified substituents and ether bridges, as well as benzimidazolidine crown ethers. The synthetic approach presented here proved to be a convenient route to a new family of crown ethers with overall yields of up to 48% based on the benzimidazole. Yields for the ring-closing step were generally high, ranging from 51% to 94%, without the need for high-dilution conditions. Reaction of the DBTA crown ethers with alkyl and benzyl halides was found to be a facile way to obtain the corresponding tetra(N-organyl) compounds. Picrate extraction studies were carried out to determine phase-transfer catalytic capabilities. Extraction efficiencies for alkali-metal ions were lower than those for dibenzo-18-crown-6. Efficiencies were higher for other metal ions, with some selectivity for Pb(2+). Tetra(N-methyl) DBTA-18-crown-6 generally exhibited higher extraction efficiencies than its N-H analogue, but the selectivity was lower.

Synthesis, complexation, and fluorescence behavior of armed crown ethers carrying naphthyl group

Armed crown ethers (1-4) bonding through an amine, amide, ether, or ester linkage to naphthyl group were found to display unique photophysical properties in the presence of guest salts. Complexation of PET fluoroionophores (1a and 1b) with Zn(2+) increased the fluorescence intensities of the host by a factor of 2.4 and 2.7, respectively. (1)H and (13)C NMR analyses of this complexation behavior of 1a revealed that Zn(2+) strongly coordinates with the armed crown nitrogen to cause a dramatic decrease in an intramolecular charge-transfer character. The armed crowns (2 and 3), bonding through an ether or ester linkage to a naphthalene, gave fluorescence quenching with guest thiocyanates. While the amide derivative (4) exhibited high Ba(2+) fluorescence selectivity and in the presence of this cation the host fluorescence intensity was by a factor of 3.69.     

Synthesis and ionophore properties of a series of new tetrapyrazolic macrocycles

The synthesis of several macrocycles containing two bipyrazolic subunits, with different cavity sizes and with donor-group-bearing side arms attached, is reported. Their alkali cation binding ability has been studied from two aspects : extraction and transport through an artificial liquid membrane. Macrocycles described here show a high selectivity towards Li⁺ and Na⁺ cations; furthermore one of them is remarkably well adapted to extract selectively and to transport efficiently the lithium cation in competitive conditions.

Synthesis of new enantiopure proton-ionizable crown ethers containing a dialkylhydrogenphosphate moiety

Seven new enantiopure proton-ionizable crown ethers containing a dialkylhydrogenphosphate moiety were prepared starting from optically active dialkyl-substituted oligoethylene glycols and phosphorus oxychloride followed by mild hydrolysis of the resulting macrocyclic chlorophosphates. Pentaethylene glycols having primary hydroxyl groups gave good yields of 17-crown-6 type ethers. Pentaethylene glycols with secondary hydroxyl groups rendered about the same amount of 17-crown-6 ethers and open chain dihydrogenphosphates in low yields. Tetraethylene glycols are reluctant to undergo macrocyclization with phosphorus oxychloride, especially the ones which contain secondary hydroxyl groups.     

From crown ethers to zeolites: Reaction of EtAlCl2 with crown ethers

In contrast to aluminum alkyls, alkyl aluminum halides such as EtAlCl₂ react with crown ethers to form cation-anion pairs which exhibit the liquid clathrate effect. Specifically, [12-C-4·AlCl₂][AlCl₃Et] and [18-C-6·AlCl₂][AlCl₃Et] have been isolated and characterized by X-ray diffraction techniques. The cations show aluminum in an octahedral environment made up of four of the oxygen atoms from the crown and two chlorine atoms. The 12-C-4 derivative crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with cell constants of a=7.497(4), b=22.121(8), c=12.339(5) Å, =94.99(3)^o, and Z=4 for =1.43 g cm^–3. Least-squares refinement based on 1413 observed reflections led to a final conventional R value of 0.093. The 18-C-6 complex belongs to the triclinic space group P1 with a=8.414(4), b=12.193(6), c=12.394(6) Å, =73.14(4), =86.07(4), =81.52(4)^o, and Z=2 for =1.45 g cm^–3. Refinement based on 2605 observed reflections led to R=0.063. The complex aluminum-containing species are related to a class of compounds called aluminoxanes.     

Synthesis of a new class of azathia crown macrocycles containing two 1,2,4-triazole or two 1,3,4-thiadiazole rings as subunits

A series of new 1,2/1,3-bis[o-(N-methylidenamino-5-aryl-3-thiol-4H-1,2,4-triazole-4-yl)phenoxy]alkane derivatives 3a-d and bis[o-(N-methylidenamino-2-thiol-1,3,4-thiadiazole-5-yl)phenoxy]alkanes 6a-c were prepared by condensation of 4-amino-5-(aroyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols 2a-b or 2-amino-5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole with bis-aldehydes 1a-c. Further reaction of compounds 3a-d and 6a-c with dibromoalkanes afforded the new macrocycles 5a-f and 8a-d. The cyclization does not require high dilution techniques and provides the expected azathia macrocycles in good yields, ranging from 55% to 68%.

Acylation of 7a-d with 2-chloroacetylchloride gave the corresponding esters 11a,b. Amination of 11a,b with different amines in acetone furnished exclusively the target lariat macrocycles 12a,b and 13 in 60-70% yields. Reaction of 2 equiv. of the macrocycles 11a,b with 1 equiv. of piperazine afforded the novel bis macrocyles 14a,b in 50-60% yields.
