Abstract
ABSTRACT Roseophilin is an alkaloid structurally related to prodiginines . The intriguing pharmacological properties of these derivatives have prompted us to prepare synthetic compounds 1–3 inspired by their structure and to explore their transmembrane anion transport activity. The methoxyfuran heterocycle impacts the anionophoric activity of the compounds as a result of the reduced hydrogen-bonding ability and electrostatic repulsions between the oxygen in the furan ring and the anions. The position of the furan was also found to be crucial for determining their anion transport activity. Overall, replacement of the characteristic methoxypyrrole moiety of prodiginines and tambjamines by the methoxyfuran found in roseophilin is detrimental to their ability as anion carriers, suggesting that the biological activity of roseophilin is likely not related to their potential activity as anion carriers. Compound 2, bearing a furan ring attached to a dipyrromethene moiety, was found to be the most active anion carrier. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
期刊介绍:
Supramolecular Chemistry welcomes manuscripts from the fields and sub-disciplines related to supramolecular chemistry and non-covalent interactions. From host-guest chemistry, self-assembly and systems chemistry, through materials chemistry and biochemical systems, we interpret supramolecular chemistry in the broadest possible sense. Interdisciplinary manuscripts are particularly encouraged. Manuscript types include: high priority communications; full papers; reviews, and; Methods papers, techniques tutorials highlighting procedures and technologies that are important to the field. We aim to publish papers in a timely fashion and as soon as a paper has been accepted and typeset it will be published in electronic form on the Latest articles section of the website. The two most important review criteria are that the paper presents high-quality work that fits generally into the broad spectrum of activities in the supramolecular chemistry field. Under normal circumstances, Supramolecular Chemistry does not consider manuscripts that would be more suitable in a highly specialized journal. This includes, but is not limited to, those based mostly or exclusively on topics such as solid state/X-ray structures, computational chemistry, or electrochemistry. .
