A novel family of crown ethers, containing adamantane units in the cyclic framework, has been designed and synthesized by a straightforward one- step procedure. The design strategy permits the incorporation of a variety of α-amino acids to provide adamantane-constrained chiral crown ethers for use as simple models in studying ion-transport and host-guest complexation. X- ray crystallographic studies on four members of this family have revealed interesting conformational features. Ion complexation studies of several members with alkali metal and ammonium ions are reported.
Serine-based cyclodepsipeptides on an adamantane building block: Design, synthesis, and characterization of a novel family of macrocyclic membrane ion-transporting depsipeptides

A simple two-step synthetic strategy provides a straightforward entry to a large variety of adamantane-containing serine-based cyclodepsipeptides. The design is flexible with respect to the choice of an amino acid, the ring size, and the nature of the tem
