Abstract
Enantiomerically enriched crown ethers (CE) exhibit strong asymmetric induction in phase transfer catalysis, supramolecular catalysis and molecular recognition processes. Traditional methods have often been used to access these valuable compounds, which limit their diversity and consequently their applicability. Herein, a practical catalytic method is described for the gram scale synthesis of a class of chiral CEs (aza-crown ethers; ACEs) using Rh-catalyzed hydroamination of bis(allenes) with diamines. Using this approach, a wide range of chiral vinyl functionalized CEs with ring sizes ranging from 12 to 36 have been successfully prepared in high yields of up to 92 %, dr of up to >20 : 1 and er of up to >99 : 1. These vinyl substituted CEs allow for further diversification giving facile access to various CE derivatives as well as to their three-dimensional analogues using ring-closing metathesis. Some of these chiral CEs themselves display high potential for use in asymmetric catalysis.

Abstract
Various undesirable side effects are frequently associated with isomers of chiral clinical agents. The separation of chiral medicines remains a challenging issue in the medicines research. In this work, we employed cyclic decapeptide as the host molecule and the M06-2X theoretical computational method for chiral recognition of four clinical candidate guests and their isomers, including bucillamine, molnupiravir, azvudine, and VV116, which are relevant for the treatment of COVID-19. The obtained results indicated that bucillamine and molnupiravir and their respective isomers may be distinguished by cyclic decapeptide and that some of the isomers of Azvudine and VV116 may be discriminated by cyclic decapeptide. The inclusion conformation, deformation analysis, and electrostatic potential analysis also visualized the binding modes and binding sites between cyclic peptides and medicine candidates. A series of weak interaction analyses suggest that hydrogen bonding and dispersion interactions may be the primary factors for the recognition and separation of the clinical candidates by cyclic decapeptides. Visualized analyses of noncovalent interaction, hydrogen bond interaction, and NBO, AIM topological demonstrated that the difference of dispersion interaction is not obvious between the complexes, while the type and number of hydrogen bonds are very different, hinting that hydrogen bonds might be crucial for the differentiation of molnupiravir and its isomers. These findings might provide a theoretical reference for the identification and separation of chiral compounds in host-guest interaction.

MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27092838.

Abstract
A great number of biologically active compounds contain at least one amine function. Appropriate selectivity can only be accomplished in a few cases upon the substitution of these groups, thus functionalization of amines generally results in a mixture of them. The separation of these derivatives with very similar characteristics can only be performed on a preparative scale or by applying pre-optimized HPLC methods. A tris(pyridino)-crown ether was designed and synthetized for overcoming these limitations at a molecular level. It is demonstrated, that this selector molecule is able to distinguish protonated primary, secondary and tertiary amines by the formation of reversible complexes with different stabilities. This degree of substitution-specific molecular recognition of amines opens the door to develop separation processes primarily focusing on the purification of biologically active compounds in a nanomolar scale.

Abstract
Chiral discrimination has gained much focus in supramolecular chemistry, since it is one of the fundamental processes in biological systems, enantiomeric separation and biochemical sensors. Though most of the biochemical processes can routinely recognize biological enantiomers, enantioselective identification of chiral molecules in artificial systems is currently one of the challenging topics in the field of chiral discrimination. Inaccuracy, low separation efficiency and expensive instrumentation were considered typical problems in artificial systems. Recently, chiral recognition on the interfaces has been widely used in the fields of electrochemical detection and biochemical sensing. For the moment, a series of macrocyclic host functionalized interfaces have been developed for use as chiral catalysts or for enantiomeric separation. Here, we have briefly exposited the most recent advances in the fabrication of supramolecular functionalized interfaces and their application for chiral recognition.

Abstract
AbstractCrown ethers containing an acridone or an acridine unit are successfully applied opto- and electrochemical cation sensors. The heteroaromatic unit of these macrocycles can be in different forms during the applications, which have a strong influence on the sensing behavior. Moreover, in the case of acridono-macrocycles a prototropic equilibrium takes place upon complexation, which is effected by the physicochemical characteristics. A Pb2+-selective acridono-18-crown-6 ether and its 9-phenylacridino-analogue were used as model compounds for comparing the different forms of the heterocyclic units of these sensor molecules. Since in most practical sensor applications of the fluorescent hosts a non-neutral aqueous medium is present, studies on complexation and signaling were carried out from the aspect of the relationship among protonation, coordinating ability, complex stability and tautomeric equilibrium. A strong interdependence among these factors was found and limitations of using unsubstituted acridino- and acridono-sensor molecules in comparison with their 9-substituted-acridino-analogues were discussed. This study will hopefully serve as a useful standpoint for future development of ionophore-based sensors containing an acridone or an acridine unit.
