Metal-Assisted Assembly of Pyridine-Containing Arylene Ethynylene Strands to Enantiopure Double Helicates
摘要:
Pyridine-containing arylene ethynylene strands were connected to the 2- and 2'-positions of (R)- and (S)-1,1'-binaphthyl templates. The arylene ethynylene moieties underwent intramolecular coordination with Ag(I) or Cu(I) ion to afford enantiopure double helicates. The double-helical structure was elucidated on the basis of circular dichroic (CD) spectra. The importance of intramolecular complexation of the double strands for the helicate formation was confirmed by comparison with a ligand bearing a single strand. Connection of the strands through an ether linkage enabled a sorting out of the Cotton effect induced by double-helical arylene ethynylene moieties. The CD exciton chirality method unambiguously proved that the termini of the strands approach each other upon complexation and that the sense of the induced helicity is the same as predicted by molecular modeling.

series of ten glycosyltransferaseinhibitors has been designed and synthesized by using pyridine as a pyrophosphatesurrogate. The series was prepared by conjugation of carbohydrate, pyridine, and nucleoside building blocks by using a combination of glycosylation, the Staudinger–Vilarrasa amide‐bond formation, and azide–alkyne click chemistry. The compounds were evaluated as inhibitors of five metal‐dependent
A new double-stranded dinuclear helicate that displays conformational switching in response to temperature was prepared by self-assembly of an aromatic helical foldamer and dichloropalladium(II). The relative populations of the two helicate conformers, syn–anti and syn–syn, were demonstrated to be reversibly modulated through temperature control.

Triazolophanes that incorporate pyridyl subunits in place of phenylenes show a heightened propensity to form 2:1 sandwich complexes with halides. Persistent iodide-based sandwiches are observed. Binding constants confirm that the inward-facing electron pairs on the pyridyls destabilize the 1:1 complexes with halides. The H-1 NMR spectra verify that the sandwich complexes have two TT-stacked triazolophanes rotated to allow registration between opposite dipoles on the pyridyls (directed inward) and triazoles (directed outward). These dipolar interactions cooperate to lower the pyridyl-based repulsions, therefore, increasing K-2. Modest cooperative effects are observed for the snugly fitting F-, Cl-, and Br- halides while the too-large l(-) shows highly positive cooperativity.
