Synthesis and crystal structures of novel calix[4]azacrowns

A series of novel 1,3‐altemate calix[4]arene azacrowns having mono and bis crown ethers on the lower rim of the calix[4]arene framework were synthesized. Solid‐state structures confirmed the three dimensional conformation of compounds 1–3.     

Chromogenic azo-coupled calix[4]arenes

Novel 1,3-alternate calix[4]azacrowns having an azo chromophoric pendent group were synthesized, and their 1,3-alternate conformations were confirmed by X-ray crystal structure. In view of the hypsochromical UV band shifting upon cation complexation, azo-coupled calix[4]azacrown-5 (3) showed the most selective shifting with alkali and alkaline metal ions. In addition, 3 revealed K+ ion selectivity not only due to the size comparability between the K+ ion and the azacrown-5 loop but also due to a significant K+-pi interaction between the two aromatic rings and the K+ ion. The UV band shifting is also dependent on the lipophilicity of the species of counteranion used.     

Synthesis and cation complexation of calix[4]azacrowns and a spirobiscalix[4]azacrown

The synthesis and complexation properties of three new derivatives, one spirobiscalix[4]azacrown (1) and two calix[4]azacrown (2 and 3), are reported. Complexation studies of the three ligands toward transition and heavy metal cations have been carried out and monitored by UV absorption spectrophotometry in acetonitrile. Mononuclear complexes were detected for all complexes, whereas binuclear species (M₂L) were also formed in the case of ligand 1 with Cu²⁺ and Pb²⁺. The extraction properties of 1, 2 and 3 toward Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Pb²⁺, Ag²⁺ and Cd²⁺ are also reported. The results showed that complexation is the main factor affecting extraction with ligands 2 and 3, while with ligand 1 it is not.     

Synthesis of Pyridylazo-substituted Chromogenic Calix[4]arenes

Calixarenes are a versatile class of macrocyclic compounds which have attracted extensive interest due to their ability to form host-guest complexes and act as enzyme mimic, especially when appropriately functionalized1. Introduction of azo group to calixarenes can make the later to be easily detected in the process of molecular recognition, azo groups have been introduced into calixarenes by the diazo-coupling reaction of calix[4]arene with BF4- or chloride salt of substituted benzene diazon…     

Chiral calix[4]azacrowns for enantiomeric recognition of amino acid derivatives

In this study the synthesis of novel chiral calix[4]azacrown derivatives has been reported. The enantioselectivity of chiral receptors was investigated by using UV-vis spectroscopy. All the chiral calix[4]arene derivatives exhibited certain chiral recognition toward the enantiomers of phenylalanine (Phe-OMe·HCl) and alanine methyl ester hydrochlorides (Ala-OMe·HCl). As a chiral receptor, the furfuryl-armed calix[4]azacrown ether 7 has the best enantiomeric discriminating ability for α-amino acid ester hydrochlorides (up to K_L/K_D=2.08, ΔΔG₀=−1.82 kJ mol⁻¹) in CHCl₃. The enantiomeric recognition abilities for guests are also discussed from a thermodynamic point of view.     

Synthesis of new chiral calix[4]azacrowns for enantiomeric recognition of carboxylic acids

Two novel chiral calix[4]azacrown ethers 4 and 5 bearing a furfuryl group on the nitrogen atom were developed by the reaction of dibromo- or ditosyl derivatives of p-tert-butylcalix[4]arenes 2 and 3 with a chiral diol, 1. The enantioselective recognition of these receptors towards the enantiomers of racemic carboxylic acids has been studied by ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The molar ratio and the association constants of the chiral compounds 4 and 5 with each of the enantiomers of guest molecules were determined by using Job plots and a nonlinear least-squares fitting method, respectively. The Job plots indicate that both of the hosts form 1:1 instantaneous complexes with (R)- or (S)-mandelic acid and (l)- or (d)-dibenzoyltartaric acid. The receptors exhibited different chiral recognition abilities towards the enantiomers of racemic guests.     

Chromogenic calix[4]arene as ionophore for potentiometric and optical sensors

Chromogenic calix[4]arene derivative was synthesized and tested as an ionophore for potentiometric and optical sensors. Distinct sodium selectivity was observed with this ionophore based, plasticized PVC membranes in potentiometric measurements suggesting their utility for biological applications. Optode membranes exhibited sodium sensitivity in the 5 x 10(-2) -10(-4)M concentration range. The optical sensitivity was improved by the use of an internal, lipophilic base (TDDA). The operation of the optical sensor is in accordance with the ion-exchange theory.     

Calix[4]azacrowns as novel molecular scaffolds for the generation of visible and near-infrared lanthanide luminescence

Two calix[4]azacrowns, capped with two aminopolyamide bridges, were used as ligands for the complexation of lanthanide ions [Eu(III), Tb(III), Nd(III), Er(III), La(III)]. The formation of 1:2 and 1:1 complexes was observed, and stability constants, determined by UV absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy, were found to be generally on the order of log beta(11) approximately 5-6 and log beta(12) approximately 10. The structural changes of the ligands upon La(III) complexation were probed by 1H NMR spectroscopy. The two ligands were observed to have opposite fluorescence behaviors, namely, fluorescence enhancement (via blocking of photoinduced electron transfer from amine groups) or quenching (via lanthanide-chromophore interactions) upon metal ion complexation. Long-lived lanthanide luminescence was sensitized by excitation in the pi,pi band of the aromatic moieties of the ligands. The direct involvement of the antenna triplet state was demonstrated via quenching of the ligand phosphorescence by Tb(III). Generally, Eu(III) luminescence was weak (Phi(lum) 相似文献

Pyrene-armed calix[4]azacrowns as new fluorescent ionophores: "molecular taekowndo" process via fluorescence change

A series of new calixarene-based fluoroionophores were synthesized. With our new calixarene derivative bearing a crown ether and an azacrown ether as two binding sites, the metal ion was found to selectively choose its better binding pocket between these two ligands. Interesting "molecular taekowndo" processes between Ag(+)-K(+), Cu(2+)-K(+), and Ag(+)-Cs(+) pairs were easily monitored via fluorescence change.     

Spectroscopic Study of Molecular Recognition of Ions by Chromogenic Calix[4]arene Derivatives

The complexation properties of three new chromogenic calix[4]arenes ( 1a–c) with aliphatic amines and alkali/alkali earth metal ions have been studied by UV/Vis spectroscopy. 1c shows the greatest complex forming ability and it is selective for Li⁺, Ca²⁺ and certain amines in polar solvents.     

The Synthesis of Ester and Ketone Derivatives of Azocalix[4]arene Containing Chromogenic Groups

Azocalix[4]arenes were prepared by linking 4-ethylaniline, 4-n-butylaniline, 4-acetamide aniline and 2-aminothiazol to calix[4]arene through a diazo-coupling reaction. A new family of azocalix[4]arenes, L1–L12, have been prepared by the incorporation of acetyl, benzoyl, and methyl ketone units to azocalix[4]arene. Characterization of the synthesized compounds was carried using elemental analyses, UV–Vis, IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopic studies.     

Calix[4]azacrowns: self-assembly and effect of chain length and O-alkylation on their metal ion-binding properties

Both the consequences of 1,3-cyclization of calix[4]arenes by diamide formation, and the effect of 2- and 2,4-alkoxycarbonylmethylation of two 1,3-bridged calix[4]azacrowns on their metal ion-binding capacities have been studied by synthesis of the derivatives in their cone conformation and measurement of the stability constants for their complexation in a range of alkaline earth and transition metal cations. In these two cases, the conformation of the ligand in the solid state has been defined in detail by a crystal structure determination. In the first case, a tubular architecture performing methanol channels is displayed, however, in the second case a zigzag architecture generated by a chloroform network connecting calixarene molecules is present. Speciation in solution appears to be limited to the formation of 1:2 and/or 1:1 and/or 2:1 (M-L) complexes, depending on the system, with values of the stability constants determined by absorption spectroscopy in acetonitrile, lying in the ranges log β₁₂ ca. 10, log β₁₁ ca. 2-5, and log β₂₁ ca. 7-9. There is evidence for selectivity toward Cu(II) and for some unexpected anion effects. None of these ligands appear to be an efficient extractant for the metals as their picrate.

Synthesis and structure of upper-rim 1,3-alternate tetraoxacalix[2]arene[2]triazine azacrowns and change of cavity in response to fluoride anion

The upper-rim 1,3-alternate tetraoxacalix[2]arene[2]triazine azacrowns were constructed effectively by macrocyclic condensation reaction of diamines with dichlorinated tetraoxacalix[2]arene[2]triazine intermediates that were synthesized from the stepwise fragment coupling reactions of 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid esters with cyanuric chlorides. Because of the formation of conjugation of amino groups with triazine rings, tetraoxacalix[2]arene[2]triazine azacrowns existed in a mixture of syn- and anti-isomeric forms. Both fluorescence titration and 1H NMR spectroscopic study showed that tetraoxacalix[2]arene[2]triazine azacrowns interacted with fluoride anion, leading to cavity changes of the host molecules.     

4-Substituted-4H-pyrrolo[2,1-c] [1,4]benzoxazines

The condensations of 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl) pyrroles with a variety of carbonyl compounds are shown to give new 4-substituted-4H-4-methylpyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzoxazines. Some of the products were further functionalized. The ir, uv, and pmr spectra of the title heterocyclic system are discussed. Reaction of 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl) pyrrole with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate yielded dimethyl 3-(2-hydroxyanilino) phthalale; a mechanistic rationale which accounts for the result involves a rearrangement of the hypothetical Diels-Alder adduct.
