The other chapters then lead from the simple to the more complex molecular assemblies. Syntheses of simple synkinons are described at first. Micelles made of 10-100 molecules follow in chapter three. It is attempted to show how structurally ill-defined assemblies can be most useful to isolate single and pairs of molecules and that micelles may produce very dynamic reaction systems. A short introduction to covalent micelles, which actually are out of the scope of this book, as well as the discussion of rigid amphiphiles indicate where molecular assembly chemistry should aim at, namely the synkinesis of solid spherical assemblies. Chapter four dealing with vesicles concentrates on asymmetric monolayer membranes and the perforation of membranes with pores and transport systems. The regioselective dissolution of porphyrins and steroids, and some polymerization and photo reactions within vesicle membranes are also described in order to characterize dynamic assemblies.

In practice, the majority of TLC separations are qualitative or semiquantitative (visual comparison) in nature. However, modern computer-controlled densitometers are now available that scan sample and calibrator chromatograms in tracks on HPTLC plates and provide quantitative capabilities. Clinically relevant analytes that have been measured by TLC include amino acids, bile acids, carbohydrates, drugs, fipids, glycolipids, phospholipids, porphyrins, prostaglandins, steroid hormones, purines, pyrimidines, derivatives of nucleic acid, and urinary organic acids. The advantages of TLC include simphcity, rapidity, versatility, ability to process a large number of samples... 

Sanders and coworkers have reviewed their strategy toward the construction of synthetic enzymes based on porphyrins and steroids [114]. One notable example is the acceleration of a Diels-Alder reaction between a pyridine-appended diene and dienophile in the presence of the catalyst, shown in Figure 87. The reaction partners bind to the inside of the host, resulting in a close proximity of their reactive ends. 

Regioselectively addressable functionalized templates (RAFT), oligovalent moieties with chemically distinct functional groups that can be selectively addressed in the preparation of template-associated synthetic proteins (TASP). RAFT are molecular scaffolds that comprise porphyrins, steroids, calixarenes, glycosides, and a variety of cyclic peptides and peptidomimetics. RAFT...

The chemicals induce only in liver, not in other tissues. The steroids, as will be discussed later, induce ALA-synthetase in liver cells as well as in erythroid cells of the chick blastoderm. Although the kidneys of the chick embryo may rapidly convert ALA to porphyrins, neither steroids nor other inducing chemicals have an inducing effect on this tissue. Thus, response to inducing compounds depends on the tissue. In the liver, at least of the chick embryo, both steroids and other chemicals induce in erythropoietic blastoderm only steroids induce and in kidneys and other tissues none of these compounds induce. Steroid induction in liver and erythropoietic tissue appears to involve a transcriptional mechanism induction by chenucals appears to involve mainly the translational mechanism (see Section V).

TOWARDS SYNTHETIC ENZYMES BASED ON PORPHYRINS AND STEROIDS... 

ABSTRACT. Syntheses and binding properties of some supermacrocyclic hosts based on porphyrins and steroids are presented. It is shown that the ligand-binding properties of linear intermediates can be used to control the outcome of the synthesis three distinct rdles for such ligand templates are identified and exploited in the synthesis of a linear poiphyrin octamer. Some chemistry of cyclocholates and cholate-capped poiphyrins is also described, with an emphasis on the control of ring size through steric effects. 

Towards synthetic enz3rmes based on porphyrins and steroids... 

A major trend in organic synthesis, however, is the move towards complex systems. It may happen that one needs to combine a steroid and a sugar molecule, a porphyrin and a carotenoid, a penicillin and a peptide. Also the specialists in a field have developed reactions and concepts that may, with or without modifications, be applied in other fields. If one needs to protect an amino group in a steroid, it is advisable not only to search the steroid literature but also to look into publications on peptide synthesis. In the synthesis of corrin chromophores with chiral centres, special knowledge of steroid, porphyrin, and alkaloid chemistry has been very helpful (R.B. Woodward, 1967 A. Eschenmoser, 1970).

The highly evolved catalyst 20 combines several features that have proved successful in simpler cases. The ionic sulfonate groups make the substrate sufficiently soluble for the reaction to be run in water. (The four hydrophilic cyclodextrins perform the same service for the catalyst.) The target reaction, the seledive oxidation of the steroid skeleton, goes back to the early days of enzyme models,1711 and the choice of porphyrin and of manganese as the metal cation are based on many years experience. The aryl groups are perfluorinated because an earlier version of the catalyst suffered self-oxidation.
