Amino acid-based squaramides for anion recognition
Published 2015-01-01Eight receptors 1–8 comprising an L-lysine scaffold modified at N- and C-termini with aliphatic alkyl chains and N,N0-alkyl amides, respectively, and bearing squaramide moieties on the amino acid side chain were synthesised ...Open AccessArticle -
Triazole–containing zinc(II)dipicolylaminefunctionalised peptides as highly selective pyrophosphate sensors in physiological media
Published 2016-01-01A small family of linear bis[zinc(II)dipicolylamine] (bis[Zn(II)-DPA])-functionalised peptidic anion receptors has been prepared where the Zn(II)-DPA binding sites have been installed via either a reductive amination ...Open AccessArticle -
Selective sensing of pyrophosphate in physiological media using zinc(II)dipicolylamino-functionalised peptides
Published 2015-01-01A series of linear peptide based anion receptors, in which the distance between the bis[zinc(II)dipicolylamine] binding sites and the peptide backbone was varied systematically, was prepared and their anion binding ability ...Open AccessArticle -

Deltamides and croconamides: Expanding the range of dual H-bond donors for selective anion recognition.
Published 2018-01-01Dual H-bond donors are widely used as recognition motifs in anion receptors. We report the synthesis of a library of dual H-bond receptors, incorporating the deltic and croconic acid derivatives, termed deltamides and ...Open AccessArticle
