A new synthesis of underivatized gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) in water stabilized by the highly water soluble 28-membered macrocyclic polyammonium chloride, [28]ane-(NH(2)(+))(6)O(2)6Cl(-) (28-MCPAC) is reported. In addition to providing stability, 28-MCPAC with its cationic form functionalizes the Au-NPs for sensing anions in water. The 28-MCPAC-Au-NPs show a surface plasmon band in the visible region (>520 nm). By tuning the 28-MCPAC:HAuCl(4) ratio, Au-NPs with different core diameters ranging from 4 nm to 6 nm, as determined by TEM analysis, can be obtained. Particles are spherical, discrete, and appeared to have narrow size distributions. Raman spectroscopy confirms that the physisorption is responsible for the interaction between Au-NP surface and 28-MCPAC. The potential of the as-synthesized particles for sensing monophosphorylated nucleosides (nucleotides): 5-adenosine monophosphate (5-AMP), 5-cytosine monophosphate (5-CMP), 5-guanine monophosphate (5-GMP), and 5-uridine monophosphate (5-UMP) is investigated spectroscopically. Nucleotides-assisted agglomerations of 28-MCPAC-Au-NPs follow the order: 5-UMP>5-GMP>5-CMP>5-AMP. An attempt is taken to prepare Au-NPs in water at pH 4.55 without an added stabilizer. Particles without an added stabilizer are short lived, and the TEM image shows that the particles aggregate following a quasi-two-dimensional self-assembly array.

Biological effects attributed to resin glycosides, including cytotoxicity against cancer cells and antibacterial, multidrug resistance-modulating, and antiviral activities have been documented. Penta-glycosides composed of calysolic acid A or calyhedic acid A, which are glycosidic acid components of the crude resin glycoside fraction of Calystegia hederacea, have not yet been isolated from this plant. In this study, eight new resin glycosides, termed calyhedins XVI (1)-XXIII (8), were isolated from the rhizomes of C.

In this study, 28-membered macrocyclic 1,5(1,5)-di(1,5-diaza-3,7-diphosphacyclooctana)-2,4,6,8(1,4)-tetrabenzenacyclooctaphane were synthesized by condensation of pyridinephosphine, paraformaldehyde, and primary diamines (bis(4-aminophenyl)methane or -sulfide. The first representatives of binuclear copper(I) complexes of P,N-containing cyclophanes with two 1,5-diaza-3,7-diphosphacyclooctane rings incorporated into a macrocyclic core and intracavity location of unusual, developed angle CuI moiety were obtained. The structure of one complex was established by X-ray diffraction analysis.

Unprecedented self-assembly of a novel 14-membered cyclic bis-thiosemicarbazone or/and a 28-membered cyclic tetrakis-thiosemicarbazone upon acid-promoted cyclooligomerization of 4-(4-thiosemicarbazido)butan-2-one hydrazone has been discovered. A thorough study of the influence of various factors on the direction of macrocyclization provided the optimal conditions for the highly selective formation of each of the macrocycles in excellent yields. Plausible pathways for macrocyclizations have been discussed.

The Ugi-click-strategy was employed for the synthesis of 12-28 membered 1,2,3-triazole derived macrocyclic peptidomimetics. The Ugi reaction with acid components bearing acetylenic fragments and azidoisocyanides provided the corresponding peptidomimetics in up to 97% isolated yield. The subsequent CuAAC click reaction with these bifunctional substrates containing both acetylene and azide groups was investigated to reveal the influence of the structure of Ugi products on the direction of the click-cyclization.
