Fluorinated synthetic anion carriers: experimental and computational insights into transmembrane chloride transport
Published 2018-01-01A series of fluorinated tripodal tris-thioureas function as highly active anion transporters across lipid bilayers and cell membranes. Here, we investigate their mechanism of action using anion transport assays in cells ...Open AccessArticle -
Full elucidation of the transmembrane anion transport mechanism of squaramides using in silico investigations
Published 2018-01-01A comprehensive experimental and theoretical investigation of the transmembrane chloride transport promoted by four series of squaramide derivatives, with different degrees of fluorination, number of convergent N–H binding ...Open AccessArticle -
Anion transport by ortho-phenylene bis-ureas across cell and vesicle membranes
Published 2017-12-01Ortho-Phenylene bis-ureas serve as anionophores in cells expressing halide-sensitive yellow fluorescent protein, as well as in synthetic vesicles. Activities can reach high levels, and are strongly dependent on the ...Open AccessArticle -
Fluorescent squaramides as anion receptors and transmembrane anion transporters
Published 2018-01-01A series of squaramide-based anion transporters functionalised with the 1,8-naphthalimide fluorophore has been developed for improved ionophoric activity and fluorescent imaging in cells.Open AccessArticle
