Metal-Controlled Aggregation-Deaggregation in Calixarene-Based Self-Assemblies
Lhotak, Pavel,Shinkai, Seiji
, p. 4829 - 4832 (1995)
Supramolecular self-assemblies of complementary components 1 or 2 (calixarene derivatives with two or four 2,6-diaminopyridine units, respectively) and 3 (5,5-dialkyl barbituric acids) in chloroform-acetonitrile solution were confirmed by 1H NMR spectroscopy and light scattering.While derivative 1 interacts with 3 only after addition of Na(1+) cation, which disrupts intramolecular hydrogen bonds, compound 2 creates a complex with 3 even without the presence of Na(1+) cation, indicating much weaker intramolecular bonds in this derivative.

The unique conformational properties, functionality, low toxicity, and low cost make calixarene-based compounds a valuable candidate against cancer. The aim of the present study is the synthesis of the upper rim and lower rim-functionalized L-proline-based calix[4]arene derivatives and evaluation of their cytotoxic potential for human cancerous cells as well as to determine the death mechanism. Synthesized calix[4]arene (3, 8a, 8b 13a, and 13b) derivatives were characterized by different spectroscopic techniques such as 1HNMR, 13CNMR, and FTIR. In vitro effects of compounds 3, 8a, 8b, 13a and 13b were tested on human cancerous cells (HEPG2, PC-3, A-549, and DLD-1) as well as human healthy epithelium cell (PNT1A). Results show that compounds 3, 8a, 8b and 13b have cytotoxic potential on human colorectal carcinoma cells (DLD-1) with IC50 values of 43 μM, 45.2 μM, 64.57 μM, and 29.35 μM respectively. Apoptosis ratios of cell death were investigated with flow cytometer using 7-AAD and Annexin-V as markers. Cytotoxic potential of 8a was found to be higher due to increased apoptosis, when compared with healthy cells the apoptotic cell death was significantly (p 0.0001) increased up to 1.7-fold and 2.4-fold in DLD-1 and A549 cells, respectively. In conclusion, these L-proline derived calix[4]arenes with their selective cytotoxic potential on human cancerous cells may be a potential candidate for the treatment of human CRC and lung cancer.

In this article, for the first time, we have reported a novel CHEF-PET fluorescence sensor L based on calix[4]arene containing four pyrene groups as binding sites, which is highly selective and sensitive towards Zn2+, Hg2+ and I-. This fluorescence probe was synthesized and characterized using the emission study, UV-vis titration, 1H NMR spectroscopy and ESI-MS investigation. The linear concentration range at pH 7 of L for Zn2+, Hg2+ and I- is 0-135 nM, 0-140 nM and 0-120 nM, respectively, with the detection limit of 6.43 nM for Zn2+, 2.94 nM for Hg2+ and 20.93 nM for I-. The binding ability was determined through Benesi-Hildebrand equation, which was found to be 7.535 × 108 M-1 for Zn2+, 9.001 × 108 M-1 for Hg2+ and 8.139 × 108 M-1 for I-. Further, we reported an easy-to-use, low-cost and disposable paper-based sensing device for the rapid chemical screening of Zn2+, Hg2+ and I-. The device comprises luminescent sensing probes embedded into a cellulose matrix, where the resonance energy transfer phenomenon seems to be the sensing mechanism. It opens up new opportunities for simple and fast screening in remote settings, where sophisticated instrumentation is not always available. The MOPAC-2016 software package was used to optimize the L using the well-established PM7 method and calculate the HOMO-LUMO energy band gap for structure L and L with Zn2+, Hg2+ and I- ion-based structures. The molecular docking study was carried out using HEX software.

Calixarene-functionalized luminescent nanoparticles were successfully fabricated for the FRET-based selective and sensitive detection of the organophosphorus pesticide glyphosate (GP). p-Tert-butylcalix[4]arene was grafted on the surface of [Ru(bpy)3]2+ incorporated SiNps to produce self-assembled nanosensors (RSC). FRET was switched on in the presence of GP by means of energy transfer due to binding with p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene grafted on the surface of the RSC. The FRET efficiency of the GP-RSC system was increased gradually with the addition of GP. The FRET efficiency was evaluated as 87.69 % and a high binding affinity was established by the binding constant value, 1.16×107 M?1, using a Langmuir binding isotherm plot. The estimated limit of detection (LOD) was 7.91×10?7 M, which was lower than the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommendation. The probe also effectively responds to real sample analysis. The sensitivity and selectivity was realized due to the efficient FRET towards the fluorescence properties of the [Ru(bpy)3]2+ complex.

A novel calix[4]arene-based tetracholesteryl derivative was synthesized, and its gelation behaviours in 30 organic solvents were studied. It showed that 1 gelled long chain alkane, some of alcohol, kerosene, ethyl acetate benzene and toluene. Interestingly the gel of 1/kerosene possessed special property, which was that the mixture solution of the compound 1/kerosene heating for a while was put on the flat contact heater and formed a gel film at 25 °C and 65 °C. Unlike ordinary film, gel film had higher strength and toughness at 65 °C, by contrast other was fragile and broken easily at 25 °C, this phenomenon was few reported before. In order to explore the phenomenon, the mechanism of the gel of 1/kerosene was discussed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), High Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (H NMR), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (IR) and micro-rheology. SEM revealed that the xerogel of 1/kerosene assembled network through some long and thick fibers at 65 °C, with concentration reducing fibers become thin and its networks were clearly observed. In contrast the morphology of xerogel was porous at low concentration and was a bulk at high temperature system. According to EI data in micro-rheology, the gelation process could be divided into three stages at 65 °C and they could be that some cholesterol segments in the gelator interacting with each other formed some small aggregation in the first stage, and other cholesterol section of the gelator sufficiently were cross-linked with time and assembled into large assembly in the second plateau. In the final moment the large assembly build gel network and the system of gel tended to stable. But there are two stages at low temperature and could be some cholesterol segments that didn't take part in assembly, which may be the cause that the performance of gel was fragile.

The complexation of alkali metal cations by lower rim N,N-dihexylacetamide (L1) and newly synthesized N-hexyl-N-methylacetamide (L2) calix[4]arene tertiary-amide derivatives was thoroughly studied at 25 °C in acetonitrile (MeCN), benzonitrile (PhCN), and methanol (MeOH) by means of direct and competitive microcalorimetric titrations, and UV and 1H NMR spectroscopies. In addition, by measuring the ligands' solubilities, the solution (transfer) Gibbs energies of the ligands and their alkali metal complexes were obtained. The inclusion of solvent molecules in the free and complexed calixarene hydrophobic cavities was also investigated. Computational (classical molecular dynamics) investigations of the studied systems were also carried out. The obtained results were compared with those previously obtained by studying the complexation ability of an N-hexylacetamidecalix[4]arene secondary-amide derivative (L3). The stability constants of 1:1 complexes were determined in all solvents used (the values obtained by different methods being in excellent agreement), as were the corresponding complexation enthalpies and entropies. Almost all of the examined reactions were enthalpically controlled. The most striking exceptions were reactions of Li+ with both ligands in methanol, for which the entropic contribution to the reaction Gibbs energy was substantial due the entropically favourable desolvation of the smallest lithium cation. The thermodynamic stabilities of the complexes were quite solvent dependent (the stability decreased in the solvent order: MeCN > PhCN ? MeOH), which could be accounted for by considering the differences in the solvation of the ligand and free and complexed alkali metal cations in the solvents used. Comparison of the stability constants of the ligand L1 and L2 complexes clearly revealed that the higher electron-donating ability of the hexyl with respect to the methyl group is of considerable importance in determining the equilibria of the complexation reactions. Additionally, the quite strong influence of intramolecular hydrogen bond formation in compound L3 (not present in ligands L1 and L2) and that of the inclusion of solvent molecules in the calixarene hydrophobic cone were shown to be of great importance in determining the thermodynamic stability of the calixarene-cation complexes. The experimental results were fully supported by those obtained by MD simulations.
Calix[4]arene-based low molecular mass gelators to form gels in organoalkoxysilanes

, p. 109969 - 109977 (2016/11/30)
Three calix[4]arene derivatives (CMA, CDA and CTA) appended with one, two or four carboxyl acid structures were prepared. Gelation behaviours of the compounds and calix[4]arene itself in ten common organoalkoxysilanes were studied. It was found that at a concentration of 2% (w/v), only the compound with the most carboxyl groups (CTA) functions as a gelator, and only this compound gels with three of the liquids tested; however, the as created gels possess smart thixotropic and thermo-reversible phase transition properties. In particular, the CTA/trimethoxyphenylsilane (PTMS) gel exhibits superior mechanical strength with a storage modulus (G′) greater than 1.9 × 106 Pa and a yield stress exceeding 3600 Pa at a concentration of 6.0% (w/v). Further testing demonstrated that the gel could be used as a substrate for sensing film fabrication, injection molding and melting-free deposition molding. Moreover, the objects from the molding and fabrication could be turned into permanent structures through further hydrolysis and condensation reactions. It is believed that the LMMGs based organoalkoxysilane gels have the potential to be used as smart materials for 3D printing and pre-cursors to a functionality-oriented solid matrix.

In this paper, we report a series of quinolinepyrimidine linked calix[4]arene derivatives functionalized with 8-amino quinoline, 5-amino quinoline, 8-hydroxy quinoline, 2-amino pyrimidine and 4-amino 3-methyl quinoline. The synthesized compounds were purified and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR,1H NMR and ESI-MS and screened for their anti-malarial activity against plasmodium falciparum strains. Two synthesized compounds with 8-hydroxy quinoline and 2-amino pyrimidine substituents showed good antimalarial activity with IC50 0.073 and 0.043 μg/ml respectively which is comparable with the standard drug chloroquine. The present study provides valuable information for developing calix[4]arene conjugates quinoline-pyrimidine based derivatives as an effective antimalarial agents.
