- PublicationMétadonnées seulementReal-time Amyloid Aggregation Monitoring with a Photonic Crystal-based Approach(2013)
; ; ; Herzig, Hans PeterWe propose the application of a new label-free optical technique based on photonic nanostructures to real-time monitor the amyloid-beta 1-42 (A?(1-42)) fibrillization, including the early stages of the aggregation process, which are related to the onset of the Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The aggregation of A? peptides into amyloid fibrils has commonly been assocd. with neuronal death, which culminates in the clin. features of the incurable degenerative AD. Recent studies revealed that cell toxicity is detd. by the formation of sol. oligomeric forms of A? peptides in the early stages of aggregation. At this phase, classical amyloid detection techniques lack in sensitivity. Upon a chem. passivation of the sensing surface by means of polyethylene glycol, the proposed approach allows an accurate, real-time monitoring of the refractive index variation of the soln., wherein A?(1-42) peptides are aggregating. This measurement is directly related to the aggregation state of the peptide throughout oligomerization and subsequent fibrillization. Our findings open new perspectives in the understanding of the dynamics of amyloid formation, and validate this approach as a new and powerful method to screen aggregation at early stages.

; ; The Rothemund-type condensation of methoxycarbonylpyrrole with acetone produces mainly the α,β'-linked dipyrromethane, a building block for the synthesis of N-confused macrocycles. The influence of the reaction conditions on the regioselectivity of the process is reported. The x-ray structures of the α,α'-, α,β'- and β,β'-linked dipyrromethanes show an interesting discrimination of the structurally different types of hydrogen bonds. [on SciFinder(R)] - PublicationMétadonnées seulement2,2'-[(2S*,6R*)-Piperidine-2,6-diyl]dipropan-2-olIn the title compd., C11H23NO2, the piperidine ring has a chair conformation. The two hydroxy H atoms are disordered over two positions with fixed occupancy ratios of 0.57:0.43 and 0.63:0.37. In the mol., there are two short N-H···O interactions. In the crystal, four symmetry-related mols. are linked by O-H···O H bonds to form a cage-like arrangement, centered about the point of intersection of three 2-fold axes. These cages stack along the [100] direction. Crystallog. data and at. coordinates are given. [on SciFinder(R)]
- PublicationMétadonnées seulement4-Meth-oxy-benzoyl-meso-octa-methyl-calix[2]pyrrolidino[2]pyrrole: an acyl chloride derivative of a partially reduced calix[4]pyrroleIn the title compound, C(36)H(50)N(4)O(2), the two pyrrolidine rings have envelope conformations. The conformation of the macrocycle is stabilized by N-H(midline ellipsis)N hydrogen bonds and a C-H(midline ellipsis)N inter-action. The benzoyl ring is inclined to an adjacent pyrrole ring by 6.76 (9)°, with a centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.6285 (10) Å. In the crystal, apart from a C-H(midline ellipsis)O and a C-H(midline ellipsis)? inter-action, mol-ecules are linked via an N-H(midline ellipsis)O hydrogen bond, leading to the formation of helical chains propagating along [010].

The conformation of the macrocycle is stabilized by N-H(midline ellipsis)N hydrogen bonds and a C-H(midline ellipsis)N inter-action. The benzoyl ring is inclined to the adjacent pyrrole ring by 11.66 (11)°, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.7488 (13) Å. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N-H(midline ellipsis)O hydrogen bonds into helical chains propagating in [010] and C-H(midline ellipsis)O and C-H(midline ellipsis)? interactions are also observed.
- PublicationMétadonnées seulementSynthesis and Reactions of 2-[1-Methyl-1-(pyrrolidin-2-yl)ethyl]-1H-pyrrole and Some Derivatives with Aldehydes: Chiral Structures Combining a Secondary-Amine Group with an 1H-Pyrrole Moiety as Excellent H-Bond Donor(2012)
; ; ; The synthesis of compd. I (R = H) and its derivs. I (R = CF3, CO2Me) combining a pyrrolidine ring with an 1H-pyrrole unit is described. Their attempted usability as organocatalysts was not successful. Reacting these simple pyrrolidine derivs. with (E)-cinnamaldehyde led to tricyclic products. The final, major products were the pyrroloindolizidine tricycles, e.g. II, obtained via the iminium ion reacting intramolecularly with the nucleophilic ?-position of the 1H-pyrrole moiety.

; ; The present paper details the first application of a fully reduced meso-octamethylporphyrinogen macrocycle as an effective ligand for simple operative manganese-catalyzed alkene epoxidn. The efficiency of the novel catalyst was detd. in the presence of various oxidants, apical ligands and acidic/basic additives. Higher reactivity was found in favor of electron-rich alkenes, whereas an electron-deficient conjugated alkene appeared to be a poor substrate in the screening. Sulfur additives were active as apical ligands, whereas nitrogen-contg. additives influenced the reactivity only moderately. Cis-Stilbene and 3?-acetoxy-5-cholestene were epoxidized in a stereoselective manner. The x-ray structures of the new manganese complexes were detd. and showed a rigid planar coordination geometry of the satd. macrocyclic ligand to the metal center.
