A new 1,3-benzoxazine nuclei-based fluorescent system is presented. The photophysical aspects are briefly discussed. The results suggested that the presence of oxazinic methylenes is necessary for fluorescence to be present.
The nature of the interactions between tyramine units was investigated in the solid state and in solution. Crystals of tyramine in its free base form were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD). The crystal structure shows a linear molecular organization held together by "head-to-tail" intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the amino groups and the phenolic hydroxyl groups. These chains are arranged in double layers that can geometrically favor the formation of templates in solution, which may facilitate macrocyclization reactions to form azacyclophane-type compounds. Computational calculations using the PM6-DH+ method and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-HRMS) reveal that the formation of a hydrogen-bonded tyramine dimer is favored in solution.

New macrocyclic compounds having two benzoxazine subunits joined by two ethylene bridges have been prepared by Mannich condensation of the appropriate 4-hydi-oxyphenylethylamine with an excess of formaldehyde. This is a general method for synthesising a new family of heterocyclophanes. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
