Usage

General Description

1,2-Bis(2-hydroxyphenoxy)ethane, also known as bisphenol A, is a chemical compound used in the production of plastics and epoxy resins. It is commonly found in consumer products such as water bottles, food containers, and dental sealants. Bisphenol A has been the subject of controversy due to its potential health effects, as it is known to mimic the hormone estrogen and has been linked to various adverse health outcomes, including reproductive disorders, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. As a result, many countries have restricted or banned the use of bisphenol A in certain products, and there is ongoing research and debate about its safety and regulation.

Highly efficient synthesis of tetra benzo spiro bis-crown ether

Novel spiro bis-crown ethers derivatives with four benzo units connected via one carbon bridges have been prepared. These compounds represent well preorganized cavities with interesting complexation abilities towards cations. These macrocyclic were prepared by a four-step via template method by utilizing simple precursors catechol, oliethylen glycol and penta erythritol tetra bromide in good yield. Additionally, cesium carbonate could be used as an excellent base for these reactions.

The Stereochemistry of Crown Ethers II -- 1H and 13C NMR Structural Study in Solution

The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of a series of structurally related crown ethers have been recorded, and the signals assigned by means of 1H/13C heteronuclear correlated and 1H/1H homonuclear NOE difference spectroscopy.The NMR parameters so extracted have been used to discuss the preferred, rapidly interconverting solution conformations of the studied species.The high-field shifts in the 13C NMR spectra, within the so-called γ-fragments, and also the 1H/1H homonuclear NOEs, are particularly informative in this respect.The T1 relaxation times of the 13C atoms show segmental motions within the ether segments and suggest different intramolecular flexibilities for the studied compounds.KEY WORDS 1H/13C NMR 2D and 1D NOE difference spectroscopy Crown ethers Conformations in solution Intramolecular flexibility.
