Design and synthesis of Sn-porphyrin based molecular gates was written by Guenet, Aurelie;Graf, Ernest;Kyritsakas, Nathalie;Hosseini, Mir Wais. And the article was included in Inorganic Chemistry in 2010.COA of Formula: C11H22O5 This article mentions the following:
Mol. gates, comprising 4-pyridinyl-substituted stannoporphyrin stator and axially-coordinated triethyleneglycol-bridged bis-1,3-dioxybenzene units having 2,6-pyridinedimethoxy coordination site as a rotor were designed to operate via coordination of metal ions to both bridging and porphyrin pyridine nitrogens. A series of the mol. gates were prepared and characterized, both in solution by 1H NMR and in the solid state by x-ray diffraction on single crystals. The mol. system is based on a porphyrin core bearing at the meso positions either Ph or pyridyl groups as a stator, octahedral Sn(IV) cation located at the center of the porphyrin as a hinge, and different handles connected to the porphyrin through Sn-O axial bonds. The stability of the complexes in the presence of different acids is also reported. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 2-(2-(2-((Tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)oxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)ethan-1-ol (cas: 60221-37-6COA of Formula: C11H22O5).
2-(2-(2-((Tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)oxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)ethan-1-ol (cas: 60221-37-6) belongs to ethers. Relative to alcohols, ethers are generally less dense, are less soluble in water, and have lower boiling points. They are relatively unreactive, and as a result they are useful as solvents for fats, oils, waxes, perfumes, resins, dyes, gums, and hydrocarbons. Vapours of certain ethers are used as insecticides, miticides, and fumigants for soil. Electron-deficient reagents are also stabilized by ethers. For example, borane (BH3) is a useful reagent for making alcohols. Pure borane exists as its dimer, diborane (B2H6), a toxic gas that is inconvenient and hazardous to use. Borane forms stable complexes with ethers, however, and it is often supplied and used as its liquid complex with tetrahydrofuran (THF).COA of Formula: C11H22O5
