Condensation metallosupramolecular polymers containing main-chain 2,2′-bipyridine and 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine moieties

Methods of preparing diverse metallosupramolecular polymers containing 2,2′-bipyridine and 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine moieties in main chains and their properties have been considered and analyzed. It has been shown that these polymers offer new possibilities for the design of materials possessing valuable specific characteristics.     

Analogs of pyrimidine mono- and polynucleotides

The corresponding monophosphates, cyclophosphates, and , -diphosphates were obtained by phosphorylation of 1-(1, 4-dihydroxy-2-pentyl) thymine, 1-(1, 3-dihydroxy-2-propyl) uracil, and their derivatives with selective protection of one of the hydroxyl groups. 2-Cyanoethyl phosphate (CEP) in the presence of N, N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), polyphosphoric acid, and pyrophosphoryl chloride were used as phosphorylating agents. The dependence of the yields of the products of phosphorylation of 1-(1, 4-dihydroxy-2-pentyl) thymine with CEP on the ratio of the reacting substances and the reaction time was studied. The monophosphates were cyclized under the influence of DCC. In the case of 1-(1, 3-dihydroxy-2-propyl) uracil 1-phosphate a dimeric phosphate was obtained in addition to a cyclophosphate. The acid hydrolysis of the cyclophosphates was investigated.See [1] for communication V; see [2] for a preliminary communication.Deceased.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 678–683, May, 1978.     

Surface plasmon resonance study of the interaction of a beta-cyclodextrin polymer and hydrophobically modified poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technique is used to follow, both in real time and in situ, the association between a physically adsorbed polymer of beta-cyclodextrin (pbetaCD) and different hydrophobically modified poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) copolymers containing either adamantyl or dodecyl groups. This association is due to the complex formation between the hydrophobic groups and the betaCD cavities. Therefore, the adsorbed amount of PNIPAM onto the pbetaCD layer depends on the substituent and on its substitution level. The association and dissociation rate constants are evaluated from the kinetics of PNIPAM adsorption. An estimation of the association constants leads to values higher than 10(4) M(-1), reflecting the strong interaction between these polymers.
