Rotation about the Carbonyl Carbon-Nitrogen Bond in Micelles of N-(Dodecyloxycarbonyl)sarcosinate

The sodium salt of the title compound forms micelles readily, exhibiting a critical micelle concentration of 6 * 10-4 M at 25 deg C.Quasi-elastic light scattering shows that most of the micelles are approximately 6.0 nm in diameter, although indications of larger aggregates (ca.170 nm diameter) were also observed.These diameters do not change beyond experimental error over the temperature range 25-50 deg C.Proton NMR experiments were used to determine the kinetics of rotation about the carbonyl carbon-nitrogen bond of the detergent both in micelles and in the monomer.While ΔG for rotation was found to be independent of aggregation state, ΔH and ΔS for the process are substantially larger in the micelle.Variations in the activation parameters as the identity of the counterion is changed suggest that disruption of ionic interactions as the surface of the micelle is a part of the rotational process.
Unsaturated cyclic ureas as new nontoxic biodegradable transdermal penetration enhancers I: Synthesis

A new concept was implemented to reduce the toxicity of some new biodegradable transdermal penetration enhancers. These enhancers consist of 1-alkyl-4-imidazolin-2-one and a long-chain alkyl ester group at the N-3 position. The synthesis involves N-alkylation of the parent compound with soft alkylating agents which were prepared in high yields by an improved method. A phase transfer catalysis technique using KOH as the base, tetrabutylammonium bromide as the catalyst, and toluene as the solvent was found to be most effective in the N-alkylation step.

Several analogues of (Z)-8-dodecenyl acetate (1a), the major pheromone component of the Oriental fruit moth, Cydia molesta, with chloroformate and lactone functional groups in place of the acetate moiety, were synthesized and investigated for their biological activity at four evaluation levels, i.e. by electroantennography (EAG), electrosensillography (ESG), short-range sexual stimulation and activation in the flight-tunnel. We found very strict requirements on the shape as well as on the electron distribution of the acetate group for a productive interaction with the receptor. The behavioral results showed that, among the analogues investigated, the chloroformate 1b, alken-4-olide 2a and also dodecyl acetate (1c) possess significant (60-85%) inhibitory activities. Based on electrophysiological evidence demonstrating that (i) only 1b is competing with the major pheromone component 1a for the same receptor sites on the male antennal sensilla, (ii) 1c elicits moderate EAG but no ESG responses and (iii) 2a does not produce any electrophysiological response at all, three possible inhibitory mechanisms by which these analogues are acting could be distinguished.

A new class of alkyl-chainappended pyrene derivatives 4 - 14 were synthesized and evaluated for their gelation abilities. Depending on the nature of the linking group, these compounds gelated a number of organic solvents, either in the presence or in the absence of the acceptor molecule 2,4,7-trinitrofluorenone (TNF). Compounds with ester, ether, or alkyl linkages gelated a number of hydroxylic and hydrocarbon solvents by means of a charge-transfer interaction with TNF, while compounds with amide, urethane and urea linkers formed gels on their own in a variety of solvents by means of π-π stacking and hydrogen-bonding interactions. The X-ray crystal structure of urethane (S)-12 showed hydrogen-bonding and stacking features, as suggested by the model. The gels obtained were investigated by spectroscopic and electron microscopic techniques which provided structural insights.
