Oligo-glutamic acids were assembled as scaffolds. The presence of amine groups in these three ligands is expected to couple with drugs or genes for delivery. The binding affinities of these cluster galactoses to liver cells were de-termined by in vitro binding studies. Among them, the tetravalent cluster galactose (19) showed the highest affinity to liver cell. It is therefore a promising targeting device for the specific delivery of drugs or genes to parenchymal liver cells.展开更多
A cationic branch-type cyclophane tetramer (1a) was synthesized by introducing three Boc-protected cyclophane derivatives into a N-acetylated tetraaza[6.1.6.1]paracy-clophane derivative as a core skeleton through DCC ...A cationic branch-type cyclophane tetramer (1a) was synthesized by introducing three Boc-protected cyclophane derivatives into a N-acetylated tetraaza[6.1.6.1]paracy-clophane derivative as a core skeleton through DCC condensation, followed by removal of the external Boc-protecting groups. Cationic cyclophane tetramer 1a exhibited a high affinity toward an anionic and hydrophobic fluorescent guest, TNS, with binding constant of 4.8 × 105 M-1. This value of 1a was about 80-fold larger than that of the corresponding monomeric cyclophane for the identical guest, reflecting multivalent effect on the guest binding. As for electrostatic recognition, the obtained binding constant of 1a was one order of magnitude larger than that of an analogous anionic cyclophane tetramer (1b) for the identical guest. These enhanced guest-binding abilities of 1a were easily evaluated by fluorescence titration experiments.展开更多

The present cyclophane tetramer and octamer showed enhanced guest-binding affinities toward fluorescent guests such as 6-p-toluidinonaphthalene-2-sulfonate and 6-anilinonaphthalene-2-sulfonate, in comparison with those of monocyclic cyclophane, reflecting multivalency effects in macrocycles.展开更多
