- congestion to the highly reactive 1,3-carbons on the furan ring. Thus, phthaloyl chloride was reacted with mesitylene or 1,3,5-triethylbenzene to produce the corresponding diketones 21 and 22. Each diketone was in turn reacted with zinc metal in glacial acetic acid [9] to afford the corresponding 1,3
- -diarylisobenzofurans 3 and 23. The latter reductions in the presence of zinc likely proceed through the corresponding ketols which are known to undergo ring closure in acidic solution [10][11]. These syntheses utilizing mesitylene or 1,3,5-triethylbenzene are considerably simpler than other approaches that would place
- solvent. An addition funnel was attached and to this was added phthaloyl dichloride (0.56 g, 2.8 mmol) and 5 mL CH2Cl2. The content of the addition funnel was added dropwise into the round bottom flask over 5 minutes with stirring. The addition funnel was reloaded with 1,3,5-triethylbenzene (0.90 g, 5.5

(How) does 1,3,5-triethylbenzene scaffolding work? Analyzing the abilities of 1,3,5-triethylbenzene- and 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene-based scaffolds to preorganize the binding elements of supramolecular hosts and to improve binding of targets

- 1,3,5-triethylbenzene template directs the binding elements toward the same face of the central ring, hence increasing the binding affinity. At the same time the 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene scaffold, without steric-gearing effects, has also been found to improve the binding affinities of hosts compared to
- methyl groups, but the size of this advantage can be small and is dependent on the groups involved. Keywords: binding affinity; entropy; molecular recognition; scaffolds; supramolecular hosts; triethylbenzene; trimethylbenzene; Introduction Supramolecular hosts use arrays of multiple weak interactions
- effect of 1,3,5-triethylbenzene-based hosts (1Et) has generally been demonstrated by comparing them to analogues that are unsubstituted at the 1,3,5 positions (1H).
