The tricyclic ring system of the antiviral drug nevirapine has been employed to test the workability of the hydrated imidazoline ring expansion (HIRE) reaction which was previously exemplified for [1.4]oxazepine and [1.4]thiazepine counterparts. The imidazoline nucleus was grafted onto the lactam moiety of nevirapine in two high-yielding steps. Subsequent N-alkylation and the HIRE reaction proceeded as envisioned and delivered rare ring-expanded diarene-fused 1,4,7-triazecines with a diversity of alkyl substituents at the lactam nitrogen atom. These findings extend the scope of the HIRE reaction to the medicinally prominent [1.4]diazepine chemical space. 相似文献
Two multidentate ligands 2,9-di[6'-(2″-hydroxyl-3″-methoxyphenyl)-n-2',5'-diazahexyl]-1,10-phenanthroline(LA)and 2,9-di(6'-α-phenol-n-2',5'-diazahexyl)-1,10-phenanthroline(LB)were synthesized and fully characterized.Protonation of the ligands and the stability of the complexes of the ligands with divalent metal ions were investigated.The trinuclear metal complexes [Cu(Ⅱ)and Zn(Ⅱ)] of the ligands were studied,as catalysts,for the transphosphorylation of the RNA-model substrate 2-hydroxypropyl-p-nitrophenyl phosphate(HPNP).The second-order rate constants of HPNP-hydrolysis catalyzed by M3L and M3LH-1 were obtained,which indicated that Zn3LBH-1 was the most efficient catalyst among them.The proposed mechanisms included the activation of the substrate via binding to the metal ions and intramolecular nucleophilic attack by the deprotonated C2-hydroxyl of HPNP. 相似文献
The phase behavior of a dendritic amphiphile containing a Newkome‐type dendron as the hydrophilic moiety and a cholesterol unit as the hydrophobic segment is investigated at the air–liquid interface. The amphiphile forms stable monomolecular films at the air–liquid interface on different subphases. Furthermore, the mineralization of calcium phosphate beneath the monolayer at different calcium and phosphate concentrations versus mineralization time shows that at low calcium and phosphate concentrations needles form, whereas flakes and spheres dominate at higher concentrations. Energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electron diffraction confirm the formation of calcium phosphate. High‐resolution transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction confirm the predominant formation of octacalcium phosphate and hydroxyapatite. The data also indicate that the final products form via a complex multistep reaction, including an association step, where nano‐needles aggregate into larger flake‐like objects.
