“…For the synthesis of 2,4,6-tris(n-carboxyalkylamino)-1,3,5-triazine, cyanuric chloride (Aldrich, 99%, St. Louis, MO, USA), glycine (Sigma, ≥99%, St. Louis, MO, USA), β-alanine (Aldrich, 99%), γ-aminobutyric acid (Sigma, ≥99%), 5-aminopentanoic acid (Aldrich, 97%), 6-aminocaproic acid (Sigma, ≥99%) were used. The chemical structures of 2,4,6-tris(n-carboxyalkylamino)-1,3,5-triazine derivatives were characterized by using 300 MHz 1 H NMR and 13 C NMR (Bruker, Cambridge, UK), FTS165 FT-IR (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA), 1112 Series flash elemental analyzer (EA) (Thermo Finnigan, Pipersville, PA, USA), and JMS-700 and JMS-DX303 mass spectrometer (MS) (Jeol, Tokyo, Japan) instruments. As the NMR solvent, deuterated trifluoroacetic acid (TFA-d 4 ) or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO-d 6 ) was used, and tetramethylsilane was used as the internal standard for calibrating the chemical shifts of The 2,4,6-tris(n-carboxyalkylamino)-1,3,5-triazine derivatives were prepared by a nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction (S N Ar) of a primary amine with cyanuric chloride.…”
