C3-Symmetric, amino acid based organogelators and thickeners: a systematic study of structure–property relations
摘要:
A class of C-3-symmetric amino acid based organogelators and thickeners featuring a rigid core have been developed. Structural variation yielded a number of compounds, the aggregation behaviour and resulting aggregates and gels of which were studied by FTIR spectroscopy, dropping ball measurements, differential scanning calorimetry and transmission electron microscopy. These studies showed that the nature of the core unit, the type of hydrogen-bonding units and the applied amino acids have a strong influence on the interactions, resulting in large differences in aggregation properties, thermal stability and morphology between the various compounds. The results provide a basis for a better understanding of the relation between aggregate/gel properties and molecular structure. The structural variation available for these compounds allows fine-tuning of the gelators with respect to aggregation behaviour and gel properties. (c) 2007 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
The invention relates to a novel class of gelling agents, to a process of preparing said agents, to the use of said agents to prepare gels, and to the gels thus obtained. A gelling agent or thickener according to the invention comprises a rigid core which is functionalized with three amino acid ester or amide groups by means of an amide or urea linkage. It may be used to gelate or thicken numerous solvents.
Chiral amplification is an interesting phenomenon in supramolecular chemistry mainly observed in complicated systems in which cooperative effect dominate. Herein, chiral, supramolecular, propeller‐like architectures have been constructed through coassembly of an achiral disk‐shaped molecule and chiral amino acid derivatives driven by intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Both the “sergeants‐and‐soldiers”

esters to the vinblastin-23-oyl moiety through an amide linkage. Studies were extended to explore the influence of the nature of the amino acid, the ester alkyl chain lengths, the stereoisomerism of the amino acid, or the reacetylation of the hydroxyl group (position O-4) of the vindoline moiety. The present study deals with the synthesis of 21 vinblastin-23-oyl amino acid derivatives, some of their physicochemical
One aspect of the present invention relates to salts that are room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs), methods of making them, and methods of using them in connection with temporary or permanent gas sequestration. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a class of solvents which can be transformed into RTILs by exposure to a gas, and methods of using them in connection with temporary or permanent gas sequestration.
