Synthesis and self-assembly of novel fluorous cationic amphiphiles with a 3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-pyridone spacer
摘要:
The synthesis of fluorous (highly fluorinated) 3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-pyridone-5-carboxylate cationic amphiphiles have been described, where the dihydropyridone serves as a spacer and either a pyridinium bromide or a triphenylphosphonium bromide form the polar cationic head group. The in water self-assembled aggregates have been observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
