The Synthesis of Dibenzo[3n]crown-n by Novel Methods and their Cation Binding Studied by Fluorescence Spectroscopy. Part IV

The dibenzo[3n]crown-n were synthesised from1,2-bis(o-hydroxyphenoxy)ethane obtained from 1,2-bis(o-formylphenoxy)ethane via Bayer-Willigeroxidations with H₂O₂/CH₃COOH in good yields. The cyclic condensation of 1,2-bis(o-hydroxyphenoxy)ethanewith dichlorides, and ditosylates of polyethylene glycols in DMF/Me₂CO₃ gave the macrocyclesdibenzo[15]crown-5, dibenzo[18]crown-6, dibenzo[21]crown-7 anddibenzo[24]crown-8. The structures were identified using IR, mass, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Therecognition of the molecules for the cations, Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Rb⁺ and Zn²⁺were conducted quantitatively with steady state fluorescencespectroscopy. The 1:1 association constants in acetonitrileshowed a good relation of the appropriate size of the macrocyclic ether towards the fitting cationradii. Namely, dibenzo[15]crown-5 was the best for Li⁺ binding and more than 100 times better thanNa⁺ and K⁺. Dibenzo[21]crown-7 was excellent for Rb⁺ binding while K⁺ is 100 timesless preferred. The largest crown ether studied, dibenzo[24]crown-8, exhibited the order of binding power,Rb⁺ > K⁺ > Na⁺. Zn²⁺ displayed, however, a marked binding with only dibenzo[18]crown-6.p>

The Synthesis of Novel Macrocycles,Part V. The Coumarin Crown Ethers and Cation Binding with Fluorescence Spectra

Abstract

The 4-H, 4-methyl and 4-phenyl derivatives of benzo-α-pyrone of 12-crown-4 and 15-crown-5 were synthesised starting from 4-substituted-6,7-dihydroxy- and 7,8-dihydroxybenzo-α-pyrones which reacted with dichloropolyethylene glycols in DMF/water/alkali carbonate. The coumarin-macrocycles were identified by elemental analysis, IR, EI-GC-MS as well as ¹H, ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The full experimental and spectral data is reported along with ion binding data studied in acetonitrile using fluorescence spectroscopy. The binding of the fluorogenic coumarin-crowns with Li⁺, Na⁺ and K⁺ were recognized as specific alterations on their fluorescence spectra that strongly originated from the structures. The observed CEQFS depending on the bound cation radii and macrocycle size evidenced the rules of cationic recognition of macrocycles. Some 15-crown-5 derivatives exhibited interesting Li⁺ and Na⁺ binding selectivities.     

The association constants of Na(+) with dibenzo[3n]crown-n in THF/water using ISE

The Na⁺ association constants, K₁₁ and β₁₂, of 1/1 and 1/2 stoichiometry of macrocycles of (1,2)dibenzo[15]crown-5, (1,3)dibenzo[18]crown-6, (1,4)dibenzo[21]crown-7, (2,3)dibenzo[21]crown-7, (2,4)dibenzo[24]-crown-8 and dicyclohexano[24]crown-8 were determined in THF/water, (50/50), mixtures. We used a Methrom Na⁺ ISE for the potentiometric measurements and applied the 1/(β_nm[A_o⁺])^n+m−1=(1−nP_c)(1−mP_c)/P_c equation where the P_c=P/[1+(m−1)P] and P is the mole fraction of the complexed cation, [A_n⁺L_m] for association constants with linear best fit. Results were in well agreement with the macrocyclic size and cation radii relationships. Measurements showed the role of aromatic groups of macrocyclics in THF/water (50/50) which allowed the macrocyclic molecules more selectively bind Na⁺ compared to the associations those obtained in water.     

The Synthesis of Novel Crown Ethers. Part IV. Coumarin Derivatives of [18]crown-6 and Cation Binding from Fluorescence Spectra

4-H, 4-methyl and 4-phenyl-1-benzopyran-2-one derivatives of [18]crown-6 derivatives were synthesised from 6,7- and 7,8-dihydroxy-1-benzopyran-2-one reacting with pentaethylene glycol ditosylate in K₂CO₃/DMF/water. The products were identified by elemental analysis, EI-GC-mass spectra and ₁H-NMR spectroscopy. The Na⁺ association constants of some coumarin derivatives were determined with an ion selective electrode in water. The Na⁺ , K⁺, Ba²⁺ and Sr²⁺ binding role of such compounds were particularly observed as remarkable alterations in acetonitrile. The 1 : 1 associations constants of K⁺ and Na⁺ with some coumarin-[18]crown-6 derivatives estimated by this way in acetonitrile exhibited the utility of complexing enhanced quenching fluorescence spectra for the ion binding power of the such macrocycles.

Eu(fod)(3) binding on the (1)H-NMR spectra of some benzo[3n]crown-n and dibenzo[3n+2]crown-n

The complexing of Eu(fod)₃ with macrocyclic ethers, benzo[15]crown-5, benzo[12]crown-4, dibenzo[20]crown-6, dibenzo[23]crown-7 and dibenzo[26]crown-8 was observed on their ¹H-NMR spectra and the selective binding constants at 400 MHz and 305 K in CDCl₃ were reported. The Eu(fod)₃ interaction displayed the selective binding role of oxygen on macrocyclic, H₂COCH₂, backbones with o- or m-dioxyphenyl groups referring the ¹H chemical shifts. The estimated equilibrium constants, K_a of 1:1 ratio of interactions were in accordance with the Eu³⁺ ionic radii to bind the oxygen sites depending on the macrocyclic size and conformation of the ethers. The minimum lanthanide-macrocyclic ether distance displayed the maximum stability so that benzo[3n]crown-n (n=4, 5) group was found to bind the Eu(fod)₃ moderately whilst dibenzo[3n+2]crown-n (n=6-8) oligomer chemical shifts were induced largely since the such Eu³⁺ complexes are more stable with larger ethyleneoxy groups.     

The Synthesis and the Cationic Fluorescence Role of Glycols with Aromatic End Groups, Part III

Some novel bis-(substituted-phenoxy) ended glycols were synthesised usinghydroxy aromatics of vanillin, o-vanillin, iso-vanillin and 4-hydroxy coumarin which reacted with bis-dihalides of polyglycols in the presence ofDMSO/alkali carbonate. The novel podands, Ar-(CH₂CH₂O)_m-Ar,(m = 1–4), were identified with IR, ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR and mass spectrometry. The various (formyl-methoxy)phenyl and 4-oxycoumarin derivatives of glycols were studied to estimate the cation binding selectivity of SCN^- salts ofLi⁺, Na⁺, K⁺ and Zn²⁺ cations in acetonitrile using steady statefluorescence spectroscopy. The relevant structures of podands have shown goodselectivity depending on the cation and the glycollength, although the chromophoreend groups have no specific contribution on binding.

Novel Macrocycles. Part 6. Synthesis, Structures and Cation Binding from Optical Spectroscopy of 9,10-Anthraquinone-crown Ethers

The 9,10-anthraquinone-[12]crown-4, [15]crown-5 and [18]crown-6 derivatives were synthesized from 1,2-dihydroxy-9,10-anthraquinone and 1,8-dihydroxy-9,10-anthraquinone which were condensed with dihalides or ditosylates of polyethylene glycols in alkali carbonate/DMSO. The 9,10-anthraquinone derived polyoxacyclo-alkanes were characterized with IR, mass spectrometry, ¹H, ¹³C spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The cation binding properties were studied with UV-vis spectroscopy. The association constants found in acetonitrile were selectively dependent on the cation radius and macrocycle size as well as the molecular structures. The observed results from UV-vis studies, however, showed the stronger complexing role of 1,2-derived macrocycles compared to those of 1,8-derivatives. The theoretical conformational analysis and the energy optimisations of the 9,10-anthraquinone-macrocycles carried out with MM+ method explained the binding results.     

Functionalized calix[4]arene as an ionophore: Synthesis,crystal structures and complexation study with Na and K ions

Calix[4]arenes with substituents at three of the four OH groups of the lower rim have been synthesized to investigate their properties as ionophores for Na⁺ and K⁺ metal ions. Crystal structures of these trisubstituted compounds revealed that the calixarene moiety has adopted a partial cone conformation, however the precise shape of the molecule, and intra- and intermolecular interactions, are significantly different due to variations of the substituents. Compound L² encapsulated an acetonitrile molecule in the cavity of the calix moiety, held by C–H?π interactions. In the case of L³, the 2-(2-chloroethoxy)-ethanol substituent is involved in strong intramolecular C–H?π interactions with the centroid of the phenyl rings of the calix, bringing the 2-(2-chloroethoxy)-ethanol moiety inward the calix cone, which prevented the entry of any solvent molecule into the cavity. The complexation properties of L²–L⁴ with Na⁺ and K⁺ ions have been investigated in chloroform–methanol mixture by ¹H NMR and an attempt has been made to isolate these complexes in the solid state. Complexation studies reveal that only L³ forms a complex selectively with K⁺, involving 2-(2-chloroethoxy)-ethanol as a coordinating moiety. The association constant (1.4 × 10⁵ M⁻¹) of the complex has also been determined.     

Synthesis and Cation-Binding Properties of Novel p-Isopropenylcalix[n]arenes and Their Acetylated Derivatives

A novel two-step method was developed to prepare individual p-isopropenylcalix[n]arenes [n=4, 6, 8]. In the first step, linear phenolic oligomers were prepared in a basic medium from p-isopropenylphenol and paraformaldehyde. The second step, cyclization of the linear oligomers was carried out at higher temperatures. Ethylene glycol was used as medium, and sodium tetraborate-decahydrate as the catalyst. O-Acetylated derivatives were obtained by acetylation of the phenolic hydroxyl groups of p-isopropenylcalix[n]arenes [n=4, 6, 8]. The p-isopropenyl-calix[n]arenes and their acetylated derivatives were characterized by IR, ¹H NMR and UV spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Their ability to extract metal cations from aqueous solutions was evaluated via metal picrate extraction experiments. A parallel investigation of the cation-binding ability of the p-tert-butylcalix[n]arenes [n=4, 6, 8] and their acetylated derivatives was also performed. The p-isopropenylcalix[6]arene hexaacetate is the most effective extracting agent for metal picrates, and shows strong affinity towards Rb cation.     

Synthesis of 2,6-dioxatricyclo[3.3.1.0]nonanes by intramolecular haloetherification and/or transannular hydroxycyclization of alkenes in [4+3]-cycloadducts

The synthesis of new difunctionalized 2,6-dioxatricyclo[3.3.1.0^3,7]nonanes is described. This type of structure is an interesting synthetic building block for potential bioactive molecules and it was prepared from 8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one having a NHBoc function on C-1. This precursor was obtained by a [4+3] cycloaddition reaction of 2-tert-butoxycarbonylaminofuran and the oxyallyl cation generated in situ from 2,4-dibromo-3-pentanone. Reduction of the carbonyl group at C-3 was accomplished in high yield and stereoselective manner to afford the corresponding axial alcohol at C-3 as a major product. Further intramolecular haloetherification of this type of alcohols with NBS and I(py)2BF₄ led to the corresponding bromo and iodo-derivatives at C-8 of the 2,6-dioxatricyclo[3.3.1.0^3,7]nonane framework, in high yield. Epoxidation of 8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-ol followed by treatment with NaCN, NaN₃, and/or NaOH in MeOH afforded 8-hydroxy-2,6-dioxatricyclo[3.3.1.0^3,7]nonanes in high yield via a transannular hydroxycyclization mediated by a base and through an alkoxide intermediate. The new 2,6-dioxatricyclo[3.3.1.0^3,7]nonanes were tested for biological activity against HIV-1 virus and MT-4 lymphoid cell line, showing a low anti-HIV activity and a high degree of cytotoxicity.     

Efficient and Selective Extraction of Fe3+ by Mono- and Di-Azocalix[4]arene Derivatives

Nine series of chromogenic mono- (A1-A2) and di- (B1-B7) substituted azocalix[4] arene analogues containing more than one azo group were described. Different chelating agents like ester and ketone moieties were grafted on the lower rim position of azocalix[4]arenes. The selective extraction properties of Fe³⁺ cation were studied by liquid-liquid extraction. This extraction process was carried out by using compounds A1-A2 and B1-B7. The results proved that coupling of phenylazo groups onto the upper rim of azocalix[4]arenes yielded greater efficiency and selectivity for carrying the Fe³⁺ cation in the extraction process at pH 2.2.
