AN ARTIFICIAL MOLECULAR RECEPTOR MOLECULE FOR DITOPIC ANIONS
Schmidtchen, F. P.
, p. 1987 - 1990 (1986)
The synthetic strategy to connect two macrotricyclic ammonium salts of different sizes (1,2) to give the ditopic receptor 9 is described.A host-guest complexation analysis reveals that the binding of 13 in contrast to the analogues 10-12 involves interactions with either tetrahedral subsite of 9.The ditopic receptor 9 discriminates between 12 and 13 by a factor of 3 relative to the monotopic host 2.
A NOVEL ENZYME MIMIC FOR THIAZOLIUM-CATALYZED α-KETOACID DECARBOXYLATION
Bergmann, N.,Schmidtchen, F. P.
, p. 6235 - 6238 (2007/10/02)
The covalent combination of the thiazolium heterocycle of thiamine with macrotricyclic quaternary ammonium receptor units yields the enzyme mimics 3a,b, which show enhanced substrate selectivity and catalytic activity in decarboxylations of α-ketoacids compared to simpler salts lacking the receptor substructure.
