Pyridine-armed diaza-crown ethers: molecular design of effective synthetic ionophores
摘要:
A variety of double-armed diaza-crown ethers were examined as synthetic ionophores in which pyridine- and quinoline-functionalized arms were attached as secondary donor sites. Binding constant determinations and C-13 NMR titration experiments revealed that introduction of a pyridine-functionalized arm, if in the proper geometrical arrangement, significantly enhanced complex stabilities for divalent metal cations via three-dimensional encapsulation. In a CH2Cl2 liquid membrane transport system, some pyridine-armed diaza-crown ethers exhibited unique and excellent transport abilities for transition-metal cations as well as for alkali and alkaline earth cations. Since these transport profiles differed greatly from those observed with conventional crown ethers, the present study offers new possibilities for designing novel types of synthetic ionophores.
A new series of doublearmed diaza-crown ethers, bearing pyridino- and quinolino-arm groups, were first shown to effectivelybind and transport some “transition metal cations” via three-dimensional complexations, which were not attained by common crownethers.

monoaza-15-crown-5, diaza-12-crown-4, diaza-18-crown-6 ethers, and 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane having aromatic pendants were prepared by the reductiveamination of the corresponding macrocycles with aromatic carboxyaldehydes in the presence of NaBH(OAc)3. Reductiveamination under 1MPa conditions provided significant shortening of the reaction time and yield enhancements.
