UV-induced solvent free synthesis of truxillic acid–bile acid conjugates
摘要:
The solvent free UV-induced [2 + 2] intermolecular cycloaddition of two molecules of 3 alpha-cinnamic acid ester of methyl lithocholate produced in 99% yield of alpha- and epsilon-truxillic acid-bis(methyl lithocholate) isomers, which possess two structurally different potential binding sites. A prerequisite for this effective solid state reaction is a proper self-assembled crystal structure of the starting conjugate crystallized from acetonitrile. The crystallization of cinnamic acid ester of methyl lithocholate from acetonitrile produces two different crystalline forms (polymorphs), which is the reason for the solid state formation of two isomers of truxillic acid-bis(methyl lithocholate).
