Although detailed structure-activity, physicochemical and biophysical investigations in probing the anchor influence in liposomal gene delivery have been reported for glycerol-based transfection lipids, the corresponding investigation for non-glycerol based simple monocationic transfection lipids have not yet been undertaken. Towards this end, herein, we delineate our structure-activity and physicochemical approach in deciphering the anchor dependency in liposomal gene delivery using fifteen new structural analogues (lipids 1-15) of recently reported non-glycerol based monocationic transfection lipids. The C14 analogues in both series 1 (lipids 1-6) and series 2 (lipids 7-15) showed maximum efficiency in transfecting COS-1 and CHO cells. However, the C12 analogue of the ether series (lipid 3) exhibited a seemingly anomalous behavior compared with its transfection efficient C10 and C14 analogues (lipids 2 and 4) in being completely inefficient to transfect both COS-1 and CHO cells. The present structure-activity investigation also convincingly demonstrates that enhancement of transfection efficiencies through incorporation of membrane re-organizing unsaturation elements in the hydrophobic anchor of cationic lipids is not universal but cell dependent. The strength of the interaction of lipids 1-15 with DNA was assessed by their ability to exclude ethidium bromide bound to the DNA. Cationic lipids with long hydrophobic tails were found, in general, to be efficient in excluding EtBr from DNA. Gel to liquid crystalline transition temperatures of the lipids was measured by fluorescence anisotropy measurement technique. In general (lipid 2 being an exception), transfection efficient lipids were found to have their mid transition temperatures at or below physiological temperatures (37°C).

The invention relates to a process for preparing fatty alcohol ethoxylates. According to the invention, the fatty alcohol ethoxylates are not obtained by means of the reaction of the fatty alcohols with ethylene oxide, as known from the prior art, but rat

Rings of five and six: Donor alkenyl rhodium carbenoids generated from 3,3-dimethylcyclopropenylcarbinols exhibit high reactivity in intramolecular C-H insertions. The reactions proceed under remarkably mild conditions, tolerate the presence of the free hydroxy group, and afford an efficient and stereoselective access to a variety of functionalized carbocycles and oxygen heterocycles.
