Abstract
(R,R)- and (S,S)-enantiomers of anthracene-containing pyridino-18-crown-6 ether having tert-butyl groups at the stereogenic centers were prepared with the aim of achieving higher enantioselectivity than for the reported (S,S)-analogue having isobutyl groups. The enantiomeric recognition abilities of the new sensor molecules toward chiral protonated primary amines and amino acid esters were studied in acetonitrile by UV–vis and fluorescence spectroscopies. The pKa values of these pyridino-crown ethers and their reported (S,S)-analogues having methyl or isobutyl groups have also been determined in acetonitrile.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
