Study of inclusion complexes of pesticides with cucurbiturils
Smitka, Jaroslav ; Tesařová, Eva (advisor) ; Šteflová, Jana (referee)
In this work we report the formation of inclusion complexes of the pesticides 1-naphthylacetic acid, 1-naphthylacetamide, napropamide and carbaryl with cucurbit[n]uril (n=7 and 8) and -cyclodextrin hosts. We also report results of the photochemistry of these compounds when free in aqueous solution and included within these nano-containers. The formation of inclusion complexes was studied by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) which gave us information about stoichiometry of the complexes and about their reactivity in the gas phase. The photodecomposition and formation of products was followed by high performance liquid chromatography coupled to both mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) and UV/VIS detector, and spectrophotometry. The studied CBs and their host-guest complexes were readily detected in the gas phase by ESI-MS, mainly as single and double charged ions containing either H+ , Na+ or K+ . The assignments were made based on the m/z values of the observed signals and further confirmed by fragmentation (tandem mass spectrometry - MSn ). All pesticides formed 1:1 (host:guest) complexes. Carbaryl, napropamide and 1-naphthylacetamide also formed 1:2 (host:guest) complexes. Under some solution chemistry conditions, namely for concentrations of cucurbiturils above 50 µM and at low acid and...
Building blocks of hydrogen-bonded supramolecular polymers
Roudná, Štěpánka ; Svoboda, Jan (advisor) ; Zedník, Jiří (referee)
The connection of molecular monomers through non-covalent interaction (e.g. hydrogen bonding, π-π interaction, coordination bonding) enables the formation of supramolecular polymers. The major advantage of these bonds is their reversibility and consequently their ability to self-assembly or to disconnect depending on given conditions. This thesis examines the self-assembly through quadruple hydrogen bonding, which is strong and the resulting structures stable. Ureidopyrimidinon A and aromatic amines were always used as the starting compound for the preparation of monofunctional and bifunctional ureidopyrimidinones.
