Ionophores carboxylic

Proton-driven Transport Systems 2.1 Carboxylic Ionophores... [Pg.38]

Cholanic acid also possesses the ability of transporting cations across a lipophilic membrane but the selectivity is not observed because it contains no recognition sites for specific cations. In the basic region, monensin forms a lipophilic complex with Na+, which is the counter ion of the carboxylate, by taking a pseudo-cyclic structure based on the effective coordination of the polyether moiety. The lipophilic complex taken up in the liquid membrane is transferred to the active region by diffusion. In the acidic region, the sodium cation is released by the neutralization reaction. The cycle is completed by the reverse transport of the free carboxylic ionophore. [Pg.39]

In mimicking this type of function, noncyclic artificial carboxylic ionophores having two terminal groups of hydroxyl and carboxylic acid moieties were synthesized and the selective transport of alkali metal cations were examined by Yamazaki et al. 9 10). Noncyclic polyethers take on a pseudo-cyclic structure when coordinating cations and so it is possible to achieve the desired selectivity for specific cations by adjusting the length of the polyether chain 2). However, they were not able to observe any relationship between the selectivity and the structure of the host molecules in an active transport system using ionophores 1-3 10). (Table 1)... [Pg.39]

By considering the stability constant and the lipophilicity of host molecules, Fyles et al. synthesized a series of carboxylic ionophores having a crown ether moiety and energetically developed the active transport of alkali metal cations 27-32). Ionophores 19-21 possess appropriate stability constants for K+ and show effective K+-selective transports (Fig. 5). Although all of the corresponding [15]crown-5 derivatives (22-24) selectively transport Na+, their transport rates are rather slow compared with... [Pg.43]

On the other hand, Bartsch et al. have studied cation transports using crown ether carboxylic acids, which are ascertained to be effective and selective extractants for alkali metal and alkaline earth metal cations 33-42>. In a proton-driven passive transport system (HC1) using a chloroform liquid membrane, ionophore 31 selectively transports Li+, whereas 32-36 and 37 are effective for selective transport of Na+ and K+, respectively, corresponding to the compatible sizes of the ring cavity and the cation. By increasing the lipophilicity from 33 to 36, the transport rate is gradually... [Pg.46]

Carboxylic ionophores selectively transport cations by using intramolecular complexation in the uptake process of cations (basic region). A new ion transport system has been developed which incorporates a structural device which assists in the release process by using intramolecular complexation of an [18]crown-6 ring and a primary ammonium ion 48>. The experimental conditions are shown in Fig. 7. All these com-... [Pg.49]

Some pH sensitive ionophores have been incorporated into liquid membranes in the construction of capillary glass micro pH sensors. Apart from ETH 1907 trido-decylamine [74], and ETH 2418 [4 -(dipropylamino)-2-azobenzene-carboxylic acid octadecylester] [75], the Fluka 95291 hydrogen ion sensitive resin cocktail A, a well-known commercial pH sensitive ionophore, has been used in many studies [76],... [Pg.296]

Calcium-selective electrodes have long been in use for the estimation of calcium concentrations - early applications included their use in complexometric titrations, especially of calcium in the presence of magnesium (42). Subsequently they have found use in a variety of systems, particularly for determining stability constants. Examples include determinations for ligands such as chloride, nitrate, acetate, and malonate (mal) (43), several diazacrown ethers (44,45), and methyl aldofuranosides (46). Other applications have included the estimation of Ca2+ levels in blood plasma (47) and in human hair (where the results compared satisfactorily with those from neutron activation analysis) (48). Ion-selective electrodes based on carboxylic polyether ionophores are mentioned in Section IV.B below. Though calcium-selective electrodes are convenient they are not particularly sensitive, and have slow response times. [Pg.258]

Macrocyclic compounds with ion-chelating properties occur naturally and often function as ionophores, translocating ions across biological membranes many of these compounds are small cyclic polypeptides. Some natural carboxylic polyethers are selective for Li+ and are, therefore, ionophores for Li+. Monensin, shown in Figure Id, is a natural ionophore for Na+ but it will also complex with Li+ and it has been shown to mediate the transport of Li+ across phospholipid bilayers [21]. It has been proposed that synthetic Li+-specific ionophores have a potential role as adjuvants in lithium therapy, the aim being to reduce the amount of... [Pg.6]

Monensin belongs to the family of polyether ionophores. These compounds consist of a series of tetrahydrofuran and tetrahydro-pyran rings and have a carboxyl group that forms neutral salts with alkali metal cations. Their three-dimensional structure presents a lipophilic hydrocarbon exterior with the cation encircled in the oxygen-rich interior. They probably act by transporting cations through the lipid bi-layer of cell membranes, thereby preventing the concentration of potassium by the cells. Evidence for this is... [Pg.66]

The enniatins and beauveracin are cyclic hexadepsipeptides and so are 18-membered macrocycles built up of alternating amino acid and carboxylic acid residues. They exhibit lower selectivity than (137) and consequently are more broad spectrum ionophores. The structure of (138)KI has been solved544 but it was not possible to conclude, with certainty, whether the metal is entrapped in the central cavity, as in related cyclic polyether structures (Figure 14a), or whether it occupi.es a site between two adjacent ligand molecules to give an infinite sandwich (147) as has been found in the RbNCS complex of a synthetic ldlldl isomer of (138).545 Adducts of 1 2 sandwich and 2 3 club sandwich stoichiometry have been proposed for Cs+ complexes of (138),546a and the 1 2 K+ sandwich complex of (138) has been proposed as the species which transports K+ across lipid layers as it shields the metal effectively from solvent interactions.5461 ... [Pg.63]

In the area of bioinorganic chemistry the constitution of a novel carboxylic acid ionophore, griseochelin, has been elucidated.598 This ionophore forms stable complexes with alkaline earth metal cations in a 2 1 stoichiometry. [Pg.70]

Polyelkers. Antibiotics within this family contain a number of cyclic ether and ketal units and have a carboxylic acid group. They form complexes with mono- and divalent cations that arc soluble in nonpolar organic solvents. They interact with bacterial cell membranes and allow cations to pass through the membranes causing cell death. Because of this property they have been classified as ionophores. Monensin, lasalocid, and maduramicin are examples of polyethers that are used commercially as anticoccidial agents in poultry and as growth promotants in ruminants. [Pg.106]

Another type of compound with potential ionophoric activity contains a single carboxylic acid group which can neutralize the charge on the metal ion. As the structures of some of these show (23-28), they have an abundance of potential O donor atoms. [Pg.973]

Ionophores, or polyether (PET) antibiotics, produced by various species of Streptomyces, possess broad spectrum anticoccidial activities. They are chemically characterized by several cyclic esters, a single terminal carboxylic acid group, and several hydroxyl groups. Representative members of this class include salinomycin (SAL), monensin (MON), lasalocid (LAS), narasin (NAR), maduramicin (MAD), and semduramicin (SEM). The main chemical properties of interest in the extraction methodology are their low polarities and instability under acidic conditions. They are able to form stable complexes with alkaline cations. All of these compounds, with the exception of LAS, bind monovalent cations (e.g., Na+ and K+). Lasalocid has a tendency to form dimers and can form complexes with divalent cations such as Mg2+ and Ca2+. The formation of metal complexes results in all of these compounds adopting a quasi-cyclic formation consequent to head-to-tail hydrogen bonding. No MRLs have yet been set by the EU for any of the carboxylic acid PETs (98). [Pg.642]
