Alkyl-bridged substituted 8-arylquinolines as highly potent PDE IV inhibitors
摘要:
Substituted 8-arylquinoline analogs bearing alkyl-linked side chain were identified as potent inhibitors of type 4 phophodiesterase. These compounds address the potential liabilities of the clinical candidate L454560. The pharmacokinetic profile of the best analogs and the in vivo efficacy in an ovalbumin-induced bronchoconstriction assay in conscious guinea pigs are reported. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

Deposition of Ordered Layers of Tetralactam Macrocycles and Ether Rotaxanes on Pyridine-Terminated Self-Assembled Monolayers on Gold
摘要:
The deposition of tetralactam macrocycles and the corresponding benzyl ether rotaxanes on gold substrates is investigated for the first time exploiting metallo-supramolecular chemistry. Two pyridine-terminated self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are developed that are used as well-ordered template layers. The two SAMs differ with respect to the rigidity of the terminal pyridines as shown by angle-resolved near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy. The template layers are then used for the metal-mediated self-assembly of macrocylces and rotaxanes on solid supports. The SAM with the more rigid terminal pyridine shows a higher coverage with the macrocycles and is therefore preferable. Angle-resolved NEXAFS spectroscopy also shows the deposited supramolecules to be oriented preferentially upright. This order is only achieved for the macrocycles through the deposition on the more rigid SAM template, whereas rotaxanes form oriented layers on both SAMs. Time-of-flight secondary-ion mass spectrometry analysis was used to determine the deposition time required for the self-assembly process.

Making contact to a quantumdot: Single quantum‐dot electronic circuits are fabricated by wiring atomically precise metal chalcogenide clusters with conjugated molecular connectors. These wired clusters can couple electronically to nanoscale electrodes and be tuned to control the charge‐transfer characteristics (see picture).

We study the effects of molecular structure on the electronic transport and mechanical stability of single-molecule junctions formed with Au point contacts. Two types of linear conjugated molecular wires are compared: those functionalized with methylsulfide or amine aurophilic groups at (1) both or (2) only one of its phenyl termini.

我们研究了分子结构对由 Au 点接触形成的单分子结的电子传输和机械稳定性的影响。比较了两种类型的线性共轭分子线:那些在 (1) 两个或 (2) 只有一个苯基末端用甲基硫化物或胺亲金基团官能化的。使用扫描隧道和原子力显微镜断裂连接技术,研究了单和双功能化分子线的电导及其对连接伸长和断裂力的依赖性。当分子桥通过一端的 S-Au 供体-受体键和另一端相对较弱的 Au-π 相互作用耦合时,可以观察到通过单功能化导线的电荷传输。对于单功能化分子线,可以通过在元位置安装第二个亲金基团来机械稳定连接,然而,这本身不会有助于新的传导途径。这些结果揭示了通过金属-π 相互作用产生的电子耦合与共轭体系上化学取代引入的量子力学效应之间的重要相互作用。这项研究提供了一种通过分子线确定性地调整电气和机械性能的策略。

A general and controlled bidirectional growth strategy enables a very rapid and efficient construction of OPV compounds possessing functional groups such as aldehyde and mercapto groups at both ends. The strategy employs only one reaction type with high yields and stereoselectivities to grow the conjugated chains, eliminating the need for protecting groups in the overall intermediates.
