Supramolecular clusters between carbohydrates and concave pyridines. Detection in the gas phase by resonance-enhanced multi-photon ionization reflectron time-of-flight mass spectrometer.

For the first time the formation of supramolecular clusters between concave pyridines and different carbohydrates could be observed in the gas phase. The different clusters have been investigated by means of laser desorption into a supersonic beam followed by resonant multi photon excitation yielding mass spectra with high intensity of the different cluster. These preliminary results open a way for the investigations of the hydrogen bonds in these compounds.

Multiple hydrogen bonds. Mass spectra of hydrogen bonded heterodimers. A comparison of ESI- and REMPI-ReTOF-MS.

Resonance enhanced multi-photon ionization-reflectron time of flight mass spectrometry is the analytical method of choice to observe hydrogen bonded supramolecules in the gas phase when protonation of basic centers competes with cluster formation.

How to synthesize macrocycles efficiently by using virtual combinatorial libraries.

The selection of different diimines 4 a-c by alkaline earth ions from a virtual combinatorial library (VCL) is described. The products were stabilized by reduction to the diamines 6 a-c; this allowed easy analysis. The library can be directed toward different target molecules 6 a-c upon addition of alkaline earth ions with different radii. Competition experiments show the possibility of synthesizing the macrocycles 6 a, 6 b, and 6 c simultaneously when using Mg(2+), Ca(2+), and Ba(2+) as template ions. The scope of this thermodynamically controlled, reversible approach for macrocycle syntheses is illustrated.
