The first part aimed to evaluate the potential of plant suspension cultures for the production of antimicrobial proteins. The extracellular, intracellular and cell wall bound fractions of seven heterotrophic and photomixotrophic plant cell suspension cultures treated with nine different elicitors were tested for the elicitor dependent production of antimicrobial proteins. Bioactivities were tested against a selected panel of human isolates including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria as well as fungi using the disc diffusion assay. The intracellular fractions of elicited cell cultures were more active than extracellular fractions while the cell wall bound fractions showed lowest activities. Among the 21 fractions tested, the intracellular fraction of Lavendula angustifolia elicited with DC3000 was most active against Candida maltosa. The second most active fraction was the intracellular fraction of Arabidopsis thaliana elicited with salicylic acid which was moreover active against all test strains. The antimicrobial activity of elicited Arabidopsis thaliana cell cultures was tested by bioautography to locate the antimicrobial proteins in the crude extract. The intracellular fraction of photomixotrophic Arabidopsis thaliana cells elicited with salicylic acid was selected for further gel filtration chromatography on S-200 column leading to the purification of one 19 kDa antimicrobially active protein, designated, AtAMP. Our findings suggest that elicited plant cell cultures may present a new promising alternative source of antimicrobial proteins. The second part comprises the isolation of actinomycetes associated with marine sponges and testing the bioactivities of new species for further investigations. Actinobacterial communities of eleven taxonomically different sponges that had been collected from offshore Ras Mohamed (Egypt) and from Rovinj (Croatia) were investigated by a culture-based approach using different standard media for isolation of actinomycetes and media enriched with aqueous sponge extract to target rare and new actinomycete species. Phylogenetic characterization of 52 representative isolates out of 90 based on almost complete sequences of genes encoding 16S rRNA supported their assignment to 18 different actinomycete genera. Altogether 14 putatively new species were identified based on sequence similarity values below 98.2\% to other strains in the NCBI database. The use of M1 agar amended with aqueous sponge extract yielded a putative new genus related to Rubrobacter which highlighting the need for innovative cultivation protocols. Biological activity testing showed that five isolates were active against Gram-positives only, one isolate was active against Candida albicans only and one isolate showed activity against both groups of pathogens. Moreover, the antiparasistic activity was documented for four isolates. These results showed a high diversity of actinomycetes associated with marine sponges as well as highlighted their potential to produce anti-infective agents. The third part of the thesis focused on the isolation and structure elucidation of new bioactive compounds. Streptomyces strain RV15 recovered from sponge Dysidea tupha, was selected for further chemical analysis by virtue of the fact that it exhibited the greatest antimicrobial potential against Staphylococcus aureus as well as Candida albicans among the all tested strains. Moreover, members of the genus Streptomyces are well known as prolific producers of interesting pharmacologically active metabolites. Chemical analysis of the methanolic crude extract using different chromatographic tools yielded four new compounds. The structures of the new compounds were spectroscopically elucidated to be four new cyclic peptides, namely, cyclodysidins A-D. Their bioactivity was tested against different proteases, bacteria and Candida as well as tumor cell lines.

The half wave potential of the first oxidation wave correlates linearly with the number of Cl- and OMe-substituents. AM1-CISD derived values of the absorption energies are in good agreement with the experiments but differ strongly for the oscillator strengths as well as for neutral compounds and their corresponding mono radical cations. The small solvent dependence of the experimental UV/Vis spectra in CH2Cl2 and MeCN reflects a minor charge transfer character of the electronic transitions. The UV/Vis/NIR spectra of the series of TAAs and their corresponding radical cations and the AM1 computations reveal that even small substituents may lead to strong symmetry breaking and to a modified electronic structure. The spectroscopic properties of a series of four bis-TAA donor-bridge-donor X-B-X dimers, composed of two asymmetric TAA chromophores (monomers) were investigated. UV/vis-, fluorescence and transient absorption spectra were recorded and compared with those of the corresponding X-B monomers. The excited states of the dimers are described as MV states which show, depending on the chemical nature of the bridge, a varying amount of interactions. It was found that superradiant emission only proceeds in the case of weak and medium coupling. Whether the first excited state potential energy surface of the dimers is a single minimum or a double minimum potential depends on the solvent polarity and the electronic coupling. In the latter case, the dimer relaxes in a symmetry broken CT state. The [2.2]paracyclophane bridged dimer is an example for a weakly coupled system, because the spectroscopic behavior is very similar to the corresponding p xylene monomer. In contrast, anthracene as well as p-xylene bridges mediate a stronger coupling and reveal a significant cooperative influence on the optical properties. A series of [2.2]paracylophane bridged bis-TAA MV radical cations X-B-X+ were analyzed by a GMH three-level model which takes two transitions into account: the IV-CT band and the bridge band. From the GMH analysis, one can conclude that the [2.2]paracyclophane moiety is not the limiting factor which governs the intramolecular charge transfer. The electronic interactions are of course smaller than direct conjugation but from the order of magnitude of the couplings of the [2.2]paracyclophane MV species it can be assumed that this bridge is able to mediate significant through-space and through-bond interactions. From the exponential dependence of the electronic coupling V between the two TAA localized states on the distance r between the two redox centers, it was inferred that the HT proceeds via superexchange mechanism. The analysis reveals that even significantly longer conjugated bridges should still mediate significant electronic interactions, because the decay constant of a series of conjugated MV species is small. The absorption properties of a series of bis-TAA-[2.2]paracyclophane dications X+-B-X+ were presented. The localized and the CT transitions of these dications are explained and analyzed by an exciton coupling model which also considers the photophysical properties of the monomeric TAA radical cations. Together with AM1-CISD calculated transition moments, experimental transition moments and transition energies of the bis-TAA dications were used to calculate electronic couplings by a GMH approach. These couplings are a measure for interactions of the excited MV CT states. The modification of the diabatic states reveals similarities of the GMH three-level model and the exciton coupling model. Comparison of the two models shows that the transition moment between the excited mixed-valence states of the dimer equals the dipole moment difference of the ground and the excited bridge state of the corresponding monomer. Thianthrenophane (1) has a cavity which offers enough room to potentially enable endohedral coordination to small ions or molecules. For the complexation of silver(I) perchlorate, the complex stability constants of thianthrenophane logK1=5.45 and of thianthrene logK2=9.16 were determined by UV/Vis titration. Single competition transport experiments with ten metal salts demonstrate a very high selectivity of thianthrenophane as a carrier for silver(I) and a distinctly higher transport rate compared to carriers such as thianthrene and 14-ane-S4. Although the X-ray crystal structure analysis of the polymeric [Ag(1)]ClO4 shows an exohedral coordination to silver(I), the formation of an endohedral [Ag(1)]+ complex is suggested to be the explanation for the unusual carrier selectivity of silver(I) by 1 in bulk liquid membrane.}, subject = {Triarylamine}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{ArjonaEsteban2015, author = {Arjona Esteban, Alhama}, title = {Merocyanine Dyes as Organic Semiconductors for Vacuum-processed Solar Cell and Transistor Devices}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-129096}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2015}, abstract = {The present thesis comprises the synthesis of new functional merocyanine dyes, the study of their electro-optical properties as well as solid state packing and their application as p-type semiconductor materials in transistor and solar cell devices.

For a particular dye, the absorption band could be shifted by more than 160 nm by increasing the solvent polarity due to a conformational switch between a merocyanine-like and a cyanine-like structure.

F{\"u}r AP-OAc, AP und BP wurden Triplettlebensdauern von 7-9 µs gemessen, w{\"a}hrend die Triplettzust{\"a}nde von AP-OH und AP-OtBu aufgrund alpha Spaltung deutlich kurzlebiger waren (ca. 1 µs); die alpha Spaltung konnte EPR-spektroskopisch durch Spinabfangexperimente mit DMPO und TEMPO belegt werden. Im Fall von AP-OMe wurde weder dessen Triplettzustand noch die Bildung von Radikalen detektiert, was auf einer schnell ablaufenden Norrish-Typ-II-Spaltung beruht. Aufgrund dieses photochemischen Verhaltens wurden die Ketone (mit Ausnahme von AP-OMe) in zwei Gruppen klassifiziert, n{\"a}mlich die „Gruppe A"-Ketone (keine Radikalbildung) und die „Gruppe B"-Ketone (Radikalbildner). W{\"a}hrend die „Gruppe A"-Ketone gegen{\"u}ber niedrigen Konzentrationen von DNA (62.5 µM) inaktiv waren, verursachten die bei der Bestrahlung der „Gruppe B"-Ketone generierten Peroxylradikale, neben wenigen direkt induzierten Strangbr{\"u}chen, haupts{\"a}chlich die Guaninoxidationsprodukte 8-oxoGua und guanidinfreisetzende Produkte (GRP). Erst wenn die DNA-Konzentration zehnfach erh{\"o}ht wird (625 µM), tritt bei der Photolyse der „Gruppe A"-Ketone auch DNA-Oxidation durch einen Elektronentransfer von der Guaninbase auf das angeregte Keton ein. Ein analoger Konzentrationseffekt wurde auch in der dG-Oxidation beobachtet, bei niedrigen Substratkonzentrationen sind nur die radikalbildenden „Gruppe B"-Ketone aktiv. Die Tatsache, dass in der dG-Oxidation durch die „Gruppe A"-Ketone kein 8-oxodG detektiert wurde, wurde auf dessen effiziente Oxidation durch dG•+-Radikalkationen zur{\"u}ckgef{\"u}hrt. Die „Gruppe B"-Ketone sind in Abwesenheit von O2 gegen{\"u}ber dG und DNA oxidativ inaktiv, da die in der alpha Spaltung generierten kohlenstoffzentrierten Radikale keine Peroxylradikale bilden k{\"o}nnen. Die „Gruppe A"-Ketone sind gegen{\"u}ber DNA in Abwesenheit wie auch in Anwesenheit von Sauerstoff genauso reaktiv, da der Elektronentransfer von DNA zum Keton unabh{\"a}ngig von Sauerstoff ist. Um mechanistische Einblicke in die oxidative DNA-Sch{\"a}digung zu erlangen, wurden photochemische Modellstudien mit dem Nukleosid dG sowie 8-oxodG durchgef{\"u}hrt, wobei zus{\"a}tzlich Spiroiminodihydantoin gebildet wird. Bis vor kurzem wurde die Struktur dieses Oxidationsproduktes als 4-HO-8-oxodG angenommen, dass zuerst in der dG Oxidation mit Singulettsauerstoff (1O2) beobachtet wurde.

The majority of precursors of reactive oxyl radicals are labile and thus delicate to handle. Therefore N-(alkoxy)-pyridinethiones and N-(Alkoxy)-thiazolethiones have attracted attention as "mild'' photochemical source of alkoxyl radicals, in the last few years. A disadvantage of the pyridine compounds, is their sensibility to daylight. Despite of their similarities, both molecules behave surprisingly different, if photolyzed in the absence of trapping reagents. The pyridinethione compounds undergo highly efficient radical chain reactions under such conditions while the corresponding thiazolethiones react surprisingly sluggish and give rise to several unwanted side products. The properties of both compounds should be understood and optimized in the frame of this work. Additionally new compounds should be suggested that can also be applied in the photochemical alkoxyl radical generation. Some background information about the generation and application of alkoxyl radicals is provided in chapter 2. Electronic excitations and UV/vis spectroscopy together with a description of quantum chemical approaches that are able to calculate such phenomena are outlined in chapter 3. Chapter 4 deals with the description of the vertical excitation spectra. During the validation CASSCF, CASPT2, TD-DFT and RI-CC2 were tested with respect to their ability to describe the vertical excitations in both compounds. The CASPT2 approach gives accurate descriptions of the electronic excitation spectra of all compounds. The time-dependent DFT results are very sensitive on the choice of the functional and a validation of the results should be always done. On the basis of these computations the spectroscopic visible absorption bands of both compounds were assigned to a pi-->pi* transition in the thiohydroxamic acid functionality. In chapter 5 the mechanism of the thermally and the photochemically induced N,O homolysis in both compounds is unveiled. The near UV-induced N,O homolysis will start from the S2 state. The expected relaxation from the S2- to the S1-state and the dissociation process is expected to be very fast in the case of the thiazolethione compound. The potential surfaces of the pyridine compound in contrast point to a slower N,O bond dissociation. Due to the resulting faster dissociation process the excess energy which results from the photochemical activation is quenched only to small amounts. The maximal possible excess energy of the fragments is lower and a quenching is much more likely in the case of the pyridinethione compounds. This explaines the different reactivities of both compounds. For the also already successfully applied precursor system N-(alkoxy)-pyridineones the computed dissociation paths show courses that clearly predict a slow bond dissociation process. Chapter 6 deals with the tuning of the initial excitation wave length of the known pyridinethiones und thiazolethiones. In the first part the effects of substituents on the thiazolethione heterocycle was examined. The UV/vis spectra of 4 and 5 substituted thiazolethiones can be interpreted like the spectrum of the parent compound. The second part of chapter 6 deals with the identification of a substitution pattern on the pyridine heterocycle which induces a blue shift of the photo active band. The computations showed that electron rich and electron poor substituents result the same effects on the electronic excitation spectra. These substituent effects are additive, but the steric orientation of the substituents has to be taken into account. Chapter 7 describes a computer aided design of new alkoxyl radical precursors. Combining the advantages of both compounds the radical formation should be initiated by an irradiation with light at about 350 nm, and the amount of side products during the radical formation process should be small. To achieve this 18 test candidates were obtained by a systematic variation of the parent compound of the thiazolethione precursor. To identify the promising new precursor systems a screening of the lower electronic excitations of all resulting 18 systems was performed with TD-DFT. For promising systems the N,O or P,O dissociation paths, respectively, were analyzed according to the developed model. N-(methoxy)-azaphospholethione and N-(methoxy)-pyrrolethione seem to be the most promising candidates. The computations predict a strong absorption at about 350 nm respectively 320 nm. Due to the amounts of maximal excess energy and the shapes of the potential surfaces of the N,O bond dissociation paths their reactivity should resemble more the behavior of the pyridinethiones.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Auerhammer2018, author = {Auerhammer, Nina A.}, title = {Energy Transfer and Excitonic Interactions in Conjugated Chromophore Arrangements of Bodipys and Pyrenes and Squaraines}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-166721}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2018}, abstract = {In this work the energy transfer and excitonic coupling in different chromophore arrangements were investigated. A difference in the coupling strength was introduced by varring the connecting unit and the spacial orientation relative to each other. The synthesis of the 2,7-substituted pyrene compounds could be optimised and good yields of HAB 1 and HAB 2 and small amounts of HAB 2 could be achieved by cobalt-catalysed trimerisation or Diels Alder reaction in the end. Absorption and fluorescence spectra reveal strong intramolecular interactions between the pyrene molecules in the HAB 1. Excitation spectra recorded at the high and low energy fluorescence suggest the contribution of two components to the spectra. One being similar to the ground state aggregate and a second species similar to undisturbed pyrene. All these feature can be accounted to two different fluorescent states which are due to electronical decoupling in the excited state. Due to the strong intramolecular coupling already in the ground state of the molecule, no energy transfer could be studied, as the six pyrene units cannot be seen as separate spectroscopic entities between which energy could be transferred. In the second part of this thesis dye conjugates of different size and alignment were synthesised to study the interaction of the transition-dipole moments. Therefore a systematic investigation of Sonogashira conditions was performed in order to obtain good yields of the desired compounds and keep dehalogenation at a minimum level. Nevertheless only the symmetrical triads could be purified as the asymmeric triads and pentades proved to decompose during purification. The pyrene containing triads Py2B and Py2SQB show small interactions already in the ground state represented by red shifts of the spectra and a broadening of the bands. Nevertheless, these interactions are in the weak coupling regime and energy transfer between the constituents is possible. On the contrary in the TA spectra it is obvious that always the whole triad, at least to some extend is excited. To question if the excitation of the high energy state is deactivated by energy transfer or rather IC in a superchromophore could not be distinguished in the course of this work. At present additional time-dependent calculations of the dynamics are in progress to get a deeper understanding of the photophysical processes taking place in the triads. The dye conjugates B2SQB-3 and (SQB)2B-4 can be assigned to the strong interaction range and hence are describable by exciton theory. The transition-dipole moments proved to be more than additive and increase for both compounds from absorption to fluorescence. This can be explained by an enhancement of the coupling in the relaxed excited state compared to the absorption into the Franck-Condon state due to a more steep potential energy surface in the excited state and hence smaller fluctuations. In the last part of this thesis the influence of disrupting electronical communication by implementing a rigid non-conjugated bridge in a bichromophoric trans-squaraine system was tested. While the flexible linked squaraines show complex spectra due to different conformers the SQA2Anth compound is rigified and no rotation is possible. This change in flexibility is represented in the steady-state spectra where just one main absorption and fluorescence band is present due to a single allowed excitonic state. The system proves to own an excited state that is completely delocalised over the whole molecule.}, subject = {Chromophor}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Auerswald2014, author = {Auerswald, Johannes}, title = {Untersuchungen zur Synthese aromatisch anellierter Pyracene und Pyracylene}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-110815}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2014}, abstract = {Ziel dieser Arbeit war die Synthese geeigneter Modellsysteme f{\"u}r die Untersuchung gekr{\"u}mmter Graphenfragmente.

Das bereits etablierte und gut charakterisierte inerte NCO-sP(EO-stat-PO) Hydrogelsystem, das eine einfache und reproduzierbare Bioaktivierung mit Peptiden erlaubt, wurde als Basis f{\"u}r diese Arbeit verwendet. Diese Hydrogele k{\"o}nnen auf zwei Weisen funktionalisiert werden. Liganden k{\"o}nnen entweder mit der Prepolymerl{\"o}sung vor der Beschichtung gemischt (Einmischmethode) oder frische Hydrogelschichten mit einer Ligandenl{\"o}sung inkubiert werden (Inkubationsmethode). Der erste Teil dieser in drei Hauptteile unterteilten Arbeit, besch{\"a}ftigte sich mit der Konzentrationsbestimmung der Liganden in der gesamten Tiefe der Hydrogelschicht, w{\"a}hrend sich der zweite Teil auf die oberfl{\"a}chensensitive Quantifizierung von Zelladh{\"a}sion vermittelnden Molek{\"u}len an der biologischen Grenzfl{\"a}che konzentrierte. Die Ergebnisse wurden mit Zelladh{\"a}sionskinetiken verglichen. Der dritte Teil dieser Arbeit besch{\"a}ftigte sich mit der biochemischen als auch strukturellen Nachahmung der komplexen Extrazellul{\"a}rmatrix (ECM). Das ECM Protein Fibronektin (FN) wurde {\"u}ber Zucker-Lektin Anbindung pr{\"a}sentiert und Zellverhalten auf diesen biomimetischen Oberfl{\"a}chen untersucht. Ebenfalls wurde Zellverhalten in einer dreidimensionalen Faserumgebung mit identischer Oberfl{\"a}chenchemie wie in den beiden ersten Teilen dieser Arbeit untersucht und mit der Peptidkonzentration korreliert. Insgesamt, war die Hauptfragestellung in dieser Arbeit 'Wie viel?', d.h. einerseits die Ermittlung der maximalen, als auch der f{\"u}r Zelladh{\"a}sion optimalen Ligandendichte. Im ersten praktischen Teil der vorliegenden Arbeit (Klassische Quantifizierung) wurden Liganden in der gesamten Hydrogelschicht, als auch speziell in oberen Bereichen der Schichten quantifiziert. Die Untersuchung der Hydrogelschichten in Wellplatten und auf Glas funktionalisiert mit GRGDS und 125I-YRGDS erfolgte in Kapitel 3 mittels Radioaktivmessung. Wurden Hydrogelschichten mittels Inkubationsmethode funktionalisiert, konnte eine S{\"a}ttigung mit Liganden bei etwa 600 µg/mL ermittelt werden. Mittels Einmischmethode funktionalisierte Hydrogele erreichten keine maximale Ligandenkonzentration in den Schichten, mit dem Verh{\"a}ltnis 2/1 als maximales verwendetes Verh{\"a}ltnis. H{\"o}here Liganden zu Prepolymer Verh{\"a}ltnisse als 2/1 wurden jedoch nicht verwendet, um eine ausreichende Vernetzung der Hydrogele nicht zu gef{\"a}hrden. Zur Detektion mittels R{\"o}ntgenphotoelektronenspektroskopie (XPS) und Flugzeit-Sekund{\"a}rionen-Massen-spektrometrie (TOF-SIMS) (Kapitel 4) wurden eine fluorierte Aminos{\"a}ure und ein iodiertes Peptid mit den Prepolymeren in molaren Verh{\"a}ltnissen von 1/2, 1/1 und 2/1 gemischt. Beide Methoden ermittelten eine maximale Ligandenkonzentration bei Verh{\"a}ltnissen von 1/1. Zus{\"a}tzliche Liganden (2/1) f{\"u}hrten zu keiner vermehrten Anbindung. Wesentlich im Zusammenhang mit der Ligandenquantifizierung auf Biomaterialien ist, diese an der Oberfl{\"a}che, die f{\"u}r Zellen zug{\"a}nglich ist, durchzuf{\"u}hren. Im zweiten Teil dieser Arbeit (Oberfl{\"a}chensensitive Quantifizierung) kamen daher Methoden zum Einsatz, die Liganden ausschließlich auf der Oberfl{\"a}che quantifizierten. Zur Detektion mit Oberfl{\"a}chenplasmon-resonanz (SPR) und akustischer Oberfl{\"a}chenwellentechnologie (SAW) in Kapitel 5 musste die Standardbeschichtung der Hydrogele von Glas und Silikon auf Cystamin funktionalisierte Goldoberfl{\"a}chen {\"u}bertragen werden. Mittels Ellipsometrie und Rasterkraftmikroskopie (AFM) konnte nur eine d{\"u}nne und inhomogene Hydrogelbeschichtung nachgewiesen werden. Dennoch zeigten SPR und SAW die Unterbindung von Serum und Streptavidin (SA) Adsorption auf nicht funktionalisierten Schichten, jedoch eine spezifische und konzentrationsabh{\"a}ngige SA Bindung auf Hydrogelschichten, die mit Biocytin und GRGDSK-biotin funktionalisiert wurden. Die Ligandenquantifizierung mittels Enzymgekoppeltem Immunadsorptionstest (ELISA) und Enzymgekoppelten Lektinadsorptionstest (ELLA) (Kapitel 6) wurde auf Hydrogelschichten in Wellplatten und auf Glas angewendet, die mit verschiedenen Liganden mittels Inkubation und Einmischung funktionalisiert wurden. Das Modellmolek{\"u}l Biocytin, das biotinylierte Peptid GRGDSK-biotin, das ECM Protein Fibronektin (FN), als auch die Modellzucker N-Acetyl-glukosamin (GlcNAc) und N-Acetyllaktosamin (LacNAc) konnten spezifisch in verschiedenen Konzentrationen nachgewiesen werden. Beispielhaft seien hier Schichten auf Glas genannt, die mittels Einmischmethode mit GRGDSK-biotin funktionalisiert wurden, da diese zum Vergleich in Kapitel 8 herangezogen wurden. Auf diesen Oberfl{\"a}chen wurde eine maximale Peptidkonzentration auf der Oberfl{\"a}che bei einem Peptid zu Prepolymer Verh{\"a}ltnis von 1/5 ermittelt. Neben diesen verschiedenen Quantifzierungsmethoden ist die in vitro Analyse mit Zellen nicht zu vernachl{\"a}ssigen (Kapitel 7). Hierzu wurden Hydrogele auf Glas aufgebracht und mit GRGDS mittels Einmischmethode funktionalisiert. Durch Z{\"a}hlen adh{\"a}renter prim{\"a}rer humaner dermaler Fibroblasten (HDF) auf Mikroskopbildern wurde eine maximale Zelladh{\"a}sion bei dem Peptid zu Prepolymer Verh{\"a}ltnis von 1/5 festgestellt. Hingegen wurde ein Verh{\"a}ltnis von 1/2 f{\"u}r optimale Zelladh{\"a}sion ermittelt, wenn Zellen zur Quantifizierung von den Hydrogelen abgel{\"o}st und im CASY® Zellz{\"a}hler quantifiziert wurden. Zus{\"a}tzlich wurde die Zellvitalit{\"a}t durch Messung intrazellul{\"a}rer Enzymaktivit{\"a}ten gemessen, jedoch konnte kein Zusammenhang zwischen Zellvitalit{\"a}t und GRGDS Konzentration hergestellt werden. Adh{\"a}rente HDFs waren in allen F{\"a}llen vital, unabh{\"a}ngig von der Ligandenkonzentration auf der Oberfl{\"a}che. Auch die Mausfibroblasten Zelllinie NIH L929 wurde auf Hydrogelen mit verschiedenen GRGDS zu Prepolymer Verh{\"a}ltnissen durch Z{\"a}hlen adh{\"a}renter Zellen auf Mikroskopbildern untersucht. Diese im Verh{\"a}ltnis zu HDFs wesentlich kleineren Mauszellen ben{\"o}tigten h{\"o}here GRGDS Konzentrationen (2/1) f{\"u}r maximale Zelladh{\"a}sion. Nach der Ligandenquantifizierung in Kapitel 3 bis 7, wurden diese Ergebnisse in Kapitel 8 miteinander verglichen. Hierzu wurden Messungen auf Hydrogelschichten verwendet, die mittels Einmischmethode funktionalisiert wurden. W{\"a}hrend die Quantifizierung mittels Radioaktivmessung in der gesamten Tiefe der Hydrogelschichten keine maximale Ligandenkonzentration ermitteln konnte, war in den oberen Bereichen der Schicht ein Maximum an Liganden bei 1/1 festzustellen (XPS, TOF-SIMS). SPR und SAW wurden zum Vergleich nicht herangezogen, da die Beschichtung auf Gold erst optimiert werden muss. Oberfl{\"a}chensensitive Quantifizierung mittels ELISA und Zelladh{\"a}sion, die lediglich die sterisch zug{\"a}nglichen Liganden auf einer Oberfl{\"a}che nachweisen, ergaben {\"u}bereinstimmend eine optimale Ligandenkonzentration f{\"u}r SA Bindung und Zelladh{\"a}sion bei einem Peptid zu Prepolymer Verh{\"a}ltnis von 1/5. Dies unterstreicht, wie wichtig der Vergleich der Methoden, als auch die Verwendung von oberfl{\"a}chensensitiven Methoden ist. Der dritten Teil dieser Arbeit besch{\"a}ftigte sich mit der biochemischen und strukturellen Nachahmung der komplexen extrazellul{\"a}ren Umgebung (Advanced ECM engineering), ein wichtiger Aspekt in der Biomaterialforschung, da zum gr{\"o}ßten Teil zwei-dimensionale Biomaterialien zum Einsatz kommen, die direkt mit Liganden kovalent funktionalisiert werden. Die ECM ist jedoch um ein Vielfaches komplexer und die bestm{\"o}gliche Nachahmung ist Voraussetzung f{\"u}r eine bessere Akzeptanz durch Zellen und Gewebe. In Kapitel 9 wurde eine M{\"o}glichkeit aufgezeigt, das ECM Protein FN nicht-kovalent {\"u}ber Zucker-Lektinbindungen zu immobilisieren. Ein Schichtaufbau von Hydrogel, dem darauf durch Mikrokontakt-druckverfahren (MCP) kovalent gebundenen Zucker Poly-N-Acetyllaktosamin (polyLacNAc) und den darauf nicht-kovalent gebundenen Galektin His6CGL2 und FN, konnte mit Fluoreszenzf{\"a}rbung elegant nachgewiesen werden. Optimale Konzentrationen f{\"u}r den Schichtaufbau wurden mittels ELLA/ELISA auf Hydrogelschichten ermittelt, die durch Inkubation mit dem Zucker funktionalisiert wurden. Nur der komplette Schichtaufbau konnte zufriedenstellende HDF Adh{\"a}sion vermitteln und im Vergleich zu Zellkulturpolystyrol (TCPS) Oberfl{\"a}chen konnten HDFs auf dem biomimetischen Schichtaufbau schneller adh{\"a}rieren und spreiten. Zudem wurde die Umorganisierung von auf Glas adsorbiertem FN, auf NCO-sP(EO-stat-PO) kovalent gebundenem FN und biomimetisch {\"u}ber polyLAcNAc-His6CGL2 gebundenem FN durch HDFs verglichen. Nur auf den biomimetischen Oberfl{\"a}chen schien eine Umorganisation durch die Zellen m{\"o}glich, wie sie auch in der ECM zu finden ist. Diese biomimetische und flexible Pr{\"a}sentation eines Proteins erwies sich als vielversprechende M{\"o}glichkeit eine biomimetischere Oberfl{\"a}che f{\"u}r Zellen zu schaffen, die eine optimale Biokompatibilit{\"a}t erm{\"o}glichen k{\"o}nnte. Auch die strukturelle Nachahmung der ECM ist eine vielversprechende Strategie zum Nachbau der ECM. In Kapitel 10 wurde ein Einschrittverfahren zur Herstellung synthetischer, bioaktiver und degradierbarer Faserkonstrukte durch Elektrospinnen zur Nachahmung der ECM pr{\"a}sentiert. In diesem System wurden durch Zugabe von NCO-sP(EO-stat-PO) als reaktives Additiv zu Poly(D,L-laktid-co-Glycolid) (PLGA) Fasern hergestellt, die mit einer ultrad{\"u}nnen, inerten Hydrogelschicht versehen waren. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass durch die Verwendung von NCO-sP(EO-stat-PO) als Additiv die Adsorption von Rinderserumalbumin (BSA) im Vergleich zu PLGA um 99,2\% reduziert, die Adh{\"a}sion von HDFs verhindert und die Adh{\"a}sion von humanen mesenchymalen Stammzellen (MSC) minimiert werden konnten. Spezifische Bioaktivierung wurde durch Zugabe von Peptidsequenzen zur Spinl{\"o}sung erreicht, welche kovalent in die Hydrogelschicht eingebunden werden konnten und kontrollierte Zell-Faser Interaktionen erm{\"o}glichten, Um die spezifische Zelladh{\"a}sion an solchen inerten Fasern zu erzielen, wurde GRGDS kovalent auf der Faseroberfl{\"a}che gebunden. Dies erfolgte durch Zugabe des Peptids zur Polymerl{\"o}sung vor dem Elektrospinnen. Als Negativkontrolle wurde die Peptidsequenz GRGES an die Faseroberfl{\"a}che gebunden, welche durch Zellen nicht erkannt wird. W{\"a}hrend die Verhinderung unspezifischer Proteinadsorption f{\"u}r die Peptidmodifizierten Fasern erhalten blieb, konnten HDFs lediglich auf den mit GRGDS Peptid modifizierten Fasern adh{\"a}rieren, proliferieren und nach zwei Wochen eine konfluente Zellschicht aus vitalen Zellen bilden. Zus{\"a}tzlich konnten MSCs auf GRGDS funktionalisierten Fasern adh{\"a}rieren. Liganden konnten auf Fasern quantifiziert werden, indem die ELISA Technik aus Kapitel 6 auf Faseroberfl{\"a}chen transferiert wurde. Um das Potential der biochemischen und strukturellen Nachbildung der ECM aufzuzeigen, wurden beide Ans{\"a}tze miteinander kombiniert.

Upon interaction with carbohydrate-based binding epitopes of glycan structures on human cell surfaces galectin-1 induces proliferative, angiogenetic and migratory signals and modulates negative T cell regulation which essentially helps the tumor to evade the immune response. These findings attributed galectin-1 a pivotal role in tumor physiology and strongly suggest the protein as target for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Within the scope of this work a strategy was elaborated for designing tailor-made galectin-1 ligands by functionalizing selected hydroxyl groups of the natural binding partner N-acetyllactosamine (LacNAc) that are not involved in the sophisticated interplay between the disaccharide and the protein.

Dadurch ist es nun m{\"o}glich, diese Bausteine effizienter zu synthetisieren und im Multigramm-Maßstab f{\"u}r die Darstellung von Rezeptoren zur Oxo-Anionen-Erkennung einzusetzen. Weiterhin wurde die Verbesserung der Komplexierungseigenschaften gegen{\"u}ber Carboxylaten auf zwei Arten untersucht: zum einen durch das Anbringen eines zus{\"a}tzlichen Seitenarms an der Guanidinio-Einheit zur Bildung von Guanidiniocarbonylpyrrol-Tweezer-Rezeptoren, zum anderen durch das Einf{\"u}hren einer zweiten positiven Ladung neben der Carboxylat-Bindungsstelle (CBS) zur Darstellung biskationischer Guanidiniocarbonylpyrrol-Rezeptoren. Zur Darstellung von Tweezer-Rezeptoren wurde ein zus{\"a}tzlicher Seitenarm an der N'-Position der Guanidinio-Einheit angebracht. Die beiden Arme sollten ein Substrat pinzettenartig von zwei Seiten, mit der CBS als Kopfgruppe, komplexieren k{\"o}nnen. Durch zus{\"a}tzliche Wechselwirkungen des neuen Seitenarms sollte neben einer st{\"a}rkeren Komplexierung vor allem eine h{\"o}here Substratspezifit{\"a}t erzielt werden. Die experimentell ermittelten Bindungskonstanten lagen allerdings im Bereich der N'-unsubstituierten Rezeptoren. Somit stellen die Tweezer-Modifikationen daher keine Verbesserung der Guanidiniocarbonylpyrrol-Rezeptoren dar. In einem weiteren Projekt zur Rezeptor-Optimierung wurden, durch Einf{\"u}hrung einer zweiten positiven Ladung in Form einer terminalen Ammonium-Gruppe, biskationische Guanidiniocarbonylpyrrol-Rezeptoren erfolgreich synthetisiert.

Durch die Variation der Encarbamatstruktur wurde die Typselektivit{\"a}t (En-Reaktion versus [2+2]-Cycloaddition) kontrolliert. Bei der [2+2]-Cycloaddition der Encarbamate I mit Singulettsauerstoff (1O2) und der Epoxidierung mit DMD und mCPBA wurden hohe Diastereoselektivit{\"a}ten beobachtet. Die folgenden Ergebnisse wurden erzielt: 1. Die Typselektivit{\"a}t (En-Reaktion versus [2+2]-Cycloaddition) der Reaktion von 1O2 mit den Encarbamaten Ia-c ist in Tabelle I aufgef{\"u}hrt. Daraus ist ersichtlich, dass die E-Isomere vorzugsweise die En-Reaktion eingehen, w{\"a}hrend die Z-Isomere die [2+2]-Cycloaddition bevorzugen. Diese diastereomerenabh{\"a}ngige Typselektivit{\"a}t wird durch den orbitaldirigierenden Effekt des vinylischen Stickstoffatoms verst{\"a}ndlich. Der Angriff des Singulettsauerstoffs wird durch die vorteilhafte bindende Orbitalwechselwirkung zwischen dem LUMO des Singulettsauerstoffs und dem HOMO des Encarbamates Ib auf die Seite der Stickstofffunktionalit{\"a}t gesteuert. Da im Encarbamat Z-I kein cis-st{\"a}ndiges allylisches Wasserstoffatom f{\"u}r den angreifenden 1O2 zur Verf{\"u}gung steht, findet vorzugsweise die [2+2]-Cycloaddition mit hoher Diastereoselektivit{\"a}t (> 95:5) statt. Bei den Encarbamaten E-I sind die Stickstofffunktionalit{\"a}t und die allylische Methylgruppe auf der Seite der Doppelbindung angeordnet, die von 1O2 angegriffen wird, so dass der sich ann{\"a}hernde Singulettsauerstoff ein allylisches Wasserstoffatom von der Methylgruppe abstrahiert und eine hohe Typselektivit{\"a}t f{\"u}r die En-Reaktion beobachtet wird. 2. In der [2+2]-Cycloaddition der Encarbamate Id-e mit Singulettsauerstoff, dem kleinstm{\"o}glichen Enophil, wird eine vollst{\"a}ndige Diastereoseitendifferenzierung (d.r. >95:5) durch die Oxazolidinonkonfiguration bestimmt. Der R1-Substituent des Oxazolidinonrings besetzt aufgrund konformationeller Effekte einen Halbraum der Doppelbindung (Abbildung A), so dass der bevorzugte \&\#61552;-faciale Angriff alleine durch die sterische Abschirmung des R1-Substituenten kontrolliert wird, solange R1 \&\#8800; H. Die Gegenwart eines weiteren stereogenen Zentrums im allylischen Substituenten der Encarbamate beeinflusst die Richtung des Singulettsauerstoffangriffs nicht: Der Angriff des Singulettsauerstoffs findet von derselben \&\#61552;-Seite statt, unabh{\"a}ngig davon, ob (4R,3'S)-Ie oder (4R,3'R)-Ie als Substrat eingesetzt wird. Offensichtlich rufen (R)-konfigurierte R1-Substituenten die (S)-Konfiguration der zwei neu gebildeten stereogenen Zentren im resultierenden Dioxetan hervor. 3. Mit den chiralen Oxazolidinonauxiliaren kann nicht nur die Diastereoselektivit{\"a}t der [2+2]-Cycloaddition von Singulettsauerstoff gesteuert werden, sondern auch die der En-Reaktion. Die Konfiguration der Doppelbindung der Encarbamate spielt in der En-Reaktion eine entscheidende Rolle. Im Fall der Isomere Z-Ia, b h{\"a}ngt die Diastereoselektivit{\"a}t stark von der Gr{\"o}ße des R1-Substituenten am Oxazolidinon ab. Dies ist verst{\"a}ndlich, denn der Angriff des Singulettsauerstoffs muß auf der Seite der allylischen Methylgruppe erfolgen, um die En-Produkte zu erhalten (Abbildung B). F{\"u}r kleinere R1-Substituenten, z.B. Methyl (Tabelle 1), wird diese Seite der Doppelbindung im Fall der Substrate Z-1 weniger effektiv abgeschirmt als f{\"u}r die r{\"a}umlich anspruchsvollere Phenylgruppe. F{\"u}r letztere wird das unlike En-Produkt daher in hoher Diastereoselektivit{\"a}t erhalten Im Fall der Substrate E-I, ist der Oxazolidinonring auf derselben Seite der Doppelbindung wie die allylische Methylgruppe. Daher treten intensivere sterische Wechselwirkungen des R1-Substituenten mit Singulettsauerstoff auf und sorgen f{\"u}r die h{\"o}here Diastereoselektivit{\"a}t als bei den Diastereomeren Z-I. 4. Bei der Epoxidierung der Encarbamate Ic, f wird ebenfalls eine hohe Diastereo-selektivit{\"a}t beobachtet, diese ist jedoch weniger ausgepr{\"a}gt als bei der Photooxygenierung derselben Substrate. Zudem wird in diesem Fall nicht nur die Richtung, sondern auch das Ausmaß der Diastereo-selektivit{\"a}t durch den R1-Substituenten im Oxazolidinonring beeinflusst. Deshalb wird f{\"u}r den Sauerstoff-Transfer der Mechanismus in Abbildung A vorgeschlagen. Wenn X = H, sind die sterischen Wechselwirkungen f{\"u}r den (1'Re,2'Re)- und den (1'Si,2'Si)-Angriff vergleichbar und daher ist die Diastereoselektivit{\"a}t niedrig (60:40). F{\"u}r X = CH3 ist die Doppelbindung vollst{\"a}ndig abgeschirmt, wodurch der (1'Re,2'Re)-Angriff erschwert wird und die Diastereoselektivit{\"a}t steigt deutlich (93:7). Weiterhin ist das Ausmaß der diastereo-facialen Differenzierung nicht nur von der Gr{\"o}ße von R1 abh{\"a}ngig, sondern auch von der Konfiguration der Doppelbindung. Die Epoxidierung des Z-Isomers ist wegen der besser abgeschirmten Doppelbindung der Z-Encarbamate immer selektiver als die des E-Isomers.}, language = {de} } @article{BrennerGeigerSchlegeletal.2023, author = {Brenner, Daniela and Geiger, Nina and Schlegel, Jan and Diesendorf, Viktoria and Kersting, Louise and Fink, Julian and Stelz, Linda and Schneider-Schaulies, Sibylle and Sauer, Markus and Bodem, Jochen and Seibel, J{\"u}rgen}, title = {Azido-ceramides, a tool to analyse SARS-CoV-2 replication and inhibition — SARS-CoV-2 is inhibited by ceramides}, series = {International Journal of Molecular Sciences}, volume = {24}, journal = {International Journal of Molecular Sciences}, number = {8}, issn = {1422-0067}, doi = {10.3390/ijms24087281}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-313581}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Recently, we have shown that C6-ceramides efficiently suppress viral replication by trapping the virus in lysosomes.

Viability assays showed a potent apoptosis-inducing effect of ancistrocladinium A in MM cell lines, including those with proteasome inhibitor (PI) resistance, and in primary MM cells, but not in non-malignant blood cells.

Affected RNA-splicing-associated pathways included genes involved in proteotoxic stress response, such as PSMB5-associated genes and the heat shock proteins HSP90 and HSP70.

Owing to these benefits, this research field is highly active, being reflected by the continuously rising number of publications. Chapter 1 gives an extensive overview of a part of these reports, namely the field of solution-processed BHJ organic solar cells using small molecules as electron-donating materials. In the early years of this research area (2006-2008), well known hole transporting materials such as triphenylamine based chromophores, oligothiophenes and polyaromatic hydrocarbons were applied. However, many of these dyes lacked absorption at longer wavelengths and were therefore limited in their light harvesting qualities. Later, chromophores based on low band gap systems consisting of electron-donating and electron-accepting units showing internal charge transfer overcame this handicap. Today, donor-substituted diketopyrrolopyrroles (D-A-D chromophores), squaraines (D-A-D chromophores) and acceptor substituted oligothiophenes (A-D-A chromophores) are among the most promising dyes for small molecule based organic solar cells with PCEs of 4-5\%. This work is based on the findings of the groups of W{\"u}rthner and Meerholz, which tested merocyanine dyes for the first time in organic BHJ solar cells.4 According to the B{\"a}ssler theory85, the high dipolarity of these dyes should hamper the charge transport, but the obtained first results with PCE of 1.7\% proved the potenital of this class of dyes for this application. Merocyanine dyes offer the advantages of facile synthesis and purification, high tinctorial strength and monodispersity. Additionally, the electronic structure of the dyes, namely the absorption as well as the electrochemical properties, can be adjusted by using the right combination of donor and acceptor units. For these reasons, this class of dye is highly interesting for the application in organic solar cells. It was the aim of the thesis to build more knowledge about the potential and limitations of merocyanines in BHJ photovoltaic devices. By screening a variety of donor and acceptor groups a comprehensive data set both for the molecular materials as well as for the respective solar devices was generated and analyzed. As one focus, the arrangement of the chromophores in the solid state was investigated to gain insight about the packing in the solar cells and its relevance for the performance of the latter. To do so, X-ray single crystal analyses were performed for selected molecules. By means of correlations between molecular properties and the characteristics of the corresponding solar cells, several design rules to generate efficient chromophores for organic photovoltaics were developed.

Results: Metabolite measurements, gene expression data and functional assays were combined with metabolic modeling to assess the effects of IQ-143 on Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and human cell lines, as a potential paradigm for novel antibiotics. Genome annotation and PCR validation identified novel enzymes in the primary metabolism of staphylococci. Gene expression response analysis and metabolic modeling demonstrated the adaptation of enzymes to IQ-143, including those not affected by significant gene expression changes. At lower concentrations, IQ-143 was bacteriostatic, and at higher concentrations bactericidal, while the analysis suggested that the mode of action was a direct interference in nucleotide and energy metabolism. Experiments in human cell lines supported the conclusions from pathway modeling and found that IQ-143 had low cytotoxicity. Conclusions: The data suggest that IQ-143 is a promising lead compound for antibiotic therapy against staphylococci.

However, one trimer that contained mixed benzothiazole indolenine squaraines could be synthesised and investigated as well. The linear spectroscopic properties, like red-shift and broadening of the absorption, of all superchromophores could be explained by exciton coupling theory. The heterochromophores (SQA)2(SQB)-N, (SQA)(SQB)2-N and (SQA)(SQB)-NH displayed additional to the typical squaraine fluorescence from the lowest excited state some properties that could be assigned to localised states. While the chromophores with N-core showed very small emission quantum yields, the chromophores with the other cores and the linear oligomers display an enhancement compared to the monomers. Transient absorption spectroscopy experiments of the star-shaped superchromophores showed, that their formally degenerated S1 states are split due to a deviation of the ideal C3 symmetry. This is also the reason for the observation of an absorption band for the highest exciton state, which is derived from the S1-state of the monomers, as its transition-dipole moment would be zero in the symmetrical case. The linear oligomers and the star-shaped superchromophores with a benzene or triarylamine core showed at least additive, sometimes even weak cooperative, behaviour in the two-photon absorption experiments. Additional to higher two-photon absorption cross sections the chromophores showed a pronounced broadening of the nonlinear absorption, due to symmetry breaking and a higher density of states.

In addition, PBI dyes have been considered as versatile and promising functional materials for organic-based electronic and optic devices, such as transistors and solar cells. For these novel demands, the control of self-organization of this type of dye and the investigation of the relationship between the supramolecular structure and the relevant optical and electronic properties is of great importance. The objective of this thesis focuses on gaining a better understanding of structural and functional properties of pi-stacks based on self-assembling PBIs. Studies include the synthesis and characterization of new functional PBI dyes, their aggregation in solution, in liquid crystalline state and on surfaces, and their fluorescence and charge transport properties. An overview of the formation, thermodynamics and structures of pi-stacks of functional pi- conjugated molecules in solution and in liquid crystalline phases is given in Chapter 2. Chapters 3 and 4 deal with the pi-pi aggregates of new, highly fluorescent PBIs without core-substituents. In Chapter 3, the self-assembly of a PBI with tridodecylphenyl substituents at imide N atoms both in solution and condensed phase has been studied in great detail. In condensed state, the dye exhibits a hexagonal columnar liquid crystalline (LC) phase as confirmed by DSC, OPM and X-ray diffraction analysis. The columnar stacking of this dye has been further confirmed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) where single columns could be well resolved The charge transport properties this dye have been investigated by pulse radiolysis-time resolved microwave conductivity (PR-TRMC) measurements. To shed more light on the nature of the pi-pi interaction of the unsubstituted PBIs, solvent depend aggregation properties have been investigated in Chapter 4. The studies are further extended from core-unsubstituted PBIs to core-substituted ones (Chapter 5 and 6). In Chapter 5, a series of highly soluble and fluorescent core-twisted PBIs that bear the same trialkylphenyl groups at the imide positions but different bay-substituents and were synthesized. These compounds are characterized by distortions of the perylene planes with dihedral angles in the range of 15-37° according to crystallographic data and molecular modeling studies. In contrast to the extended oligomeric aggregates formed for planar unsubstituted PBIs, this family of dyes formed discrete pi-pi-stacked dimers in apolar methylcyclohexane as concentration-dependent UV/Vis measurements and VPO analysis revealed. The Gibbs free energy of dimerization can be correlated with the twist angles of the dyes linearly. In condensed state, several of these PBIs form luminescent rectangular or hexagonal columnar liquid crystalline phases with low isotropization temperatures. The core-twisting effect on semiconducting properties has been examined in Chapter 6. In this chapter, a comparative study of the electrochemical and the charge transport properties of a series of non-substituted and chlorine-functionalized PBIs was performed. While Chapters 3-6 focus on one-component dye systems, Chapter 7 explored the possibility of a supramolecular engineering of co-aggregates formed by hydrogen-bonded 2:1 and 1:1 complex of oligo(p-phenylene vinylene)s (OPVs) and PBIs. Covalently linked donor-acceptor dye arrays have been prepared for comparison. Concentration and temperature-dependent UV/Vis spectroscopy revealed all hydrogen-bonded and covalent systems form well-ordered J-type aggregates in methylcyclohexane. With these hydrogen-bonded OPV-PBI complexes, fibers containing p-type and n-type molecules can be prepared on the nano-scale (1-20 nm). For the 2:1 OPV-PBI hydrogenbonded arrays hierarchically assembled chiral superstructures consisting of left-handed helical pi-pi co-aggregates (CD spectroscopy) of the two dyes that further assemble into right-handed nanometer-scale supercoils in the solid state (AFM study) have been observed. All of these well-defined OPV-PBI assemblies presented here exhibit photoinduced electron transfer on sub-ps timescale, while the electron recombination differs for different systems.Thus, it was suggested that such assemblies of p- and n-type semiconductors might serve as valuable nanoscopic functional units for organic electronics.}, subject = {Perylenderivate}, language = {en} } @article{Christl1975, author = {Christl, Manfred}, title = {\(^{13}\)-NMR-Spektren von Bicyclo[n.1.0]kohlenwasserstoffen}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-57977}, year = {1975}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Organische Chemie}, language = {de} } @techreport{Christl1986, author = {Christl, Manfred}, title = {Cycloadditions of 1,3,4-Oxadiazin-6-ones}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-41677}, year = {1986}, abstract = {No abstract available}, language = {en} } @article{Christl1975, author = {Christl, Manfred}, title = {Carbon-13 Chemical Shifts and 13C-15N Coupling Constants of 3,4-Dihydroisoquinoline-15N, its 15N-Oxide and their Conjugate Acids}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-30071}, year = {1975}, abstract = {No abstract available}, language = {en} } @article{Christl1981, author = {Christl, Manfred}, title = {Benzvalen - Eigenschaften und Synthesepotential}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-30041}, year = {1981}, abstract = {No abstract available}, language = {de} } @article{Christl1973, author = {Christl, Manfred}, title = {Cycloaddition an Benzvalen}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-30217}, year = {1973}, abstract = {No abstract available}, language = {de} } @article{ChristlBraun1989, author = {Christl, Manfred and Braun, Martin}, title = {Generation and interception of 1-OXA-2,3-Cyclohexadiene and 1,2,4-Cyclohexatriene}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-56566}, year = {1989}, abstract = {The cycloadducts 6 and 7 of tricyc1o[4.1.0.0 2 ,7)hepta- 3,4-diene (~) with styrene and 1,3-butadiene rearrange to unusual products on thermolysis, namely the cycloheptatriene derivatives ~ and 10. 1-0xa-3,4-cyclohexadiene (20) is generated smoothly from 6,6-dichloro-3-oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane (22) and n-butyllithium. 1-0xa-2,3-cyclohexadiene (11) is formed from 6-exo-bromo-6-endo-fluoro-2-oxabicyclo[ 3.1.0]hexane (30) and methyllithium.
