    • A Versatile Tripodal Amide Receptor for the Encapsulation of Anions or Hydrated Anions via Formation of Dimeric Capsules

      M. Arunachalam and Pradyut Ghosh
      Inorganic Chemistry2010 49 (3), 943-951

      A bowl-shaped tripodal receptor with an appropriately positioned amide functionality on the benzene platform and electron-withdrawing p-nitrophenyl terminals (L1) has been designed, synthesized, and studied for the anion binding properties. The single-...

    • Strong N−H···π Hydrogen Bonding in Amide−Benzene Interactions

      Philipp Ottiger, Chantal Pfaffen, Roman Leist and Samuel Leutwyler, Rafał A. Bachorz and Wim Klopper
      The Journal of Physical Chemistry B2009 113 (9), 2937-2943

      Among the weak intermolecular interactions found in proteins, the amide N−H···π interaction has been widely observed but remains poorly characterized as an individual interaction. We have investigated the isolated supersonic-jet-cooled dimer of the cis-...

    • Electrophilic Coordination Catalysis: A Summary of Previous Thought and a New Angle of Analysis

      Ronald J. T. Houk, Arthur Monzingo and Eric V. Anslyn
      Accounts of Chemical Research2008 41 (3), 401-410

      One of the most common, and yet least well understood, enzymatic transformations is proton abstraction from activated carbon acids such as carbonyls. Understanding the mechanism for these proton abstractions is basic to a good understanding of enzyme ...

    • Effects of Lysine Acetylation in a β-Hairpin Peptide:  Comparison of an Amide−π and a Cation−π Interaction

      Robert M. Hughes and Marcey L. Waters
      Journal of the American Chemical Society2006 128 (41), 13586-13591

      The acetylation of lysine is a common posttranslational modification of histone proteins, and the interaction of acetylated lysines with aromatic rings is commonly observed in transcriptionally relevant protein−protein interactions. To determine the ...
