Abstract:Two chiral trilactams, cup-shaped (À )-1 and bowlshaped (À )-2, were synthesized. Single crystal X-ray analysis revealed that (À )-1 formed dimer structure by the formation of three NH···O type complementary hydrogen bonds at three amide moieties. The equilibrium constant (K eq ) and kinetic parameters~H°and~S°of the dimer formation phenomenon of (À )-1 were determined by variable temperature proton NMR. Further binding energy calculation on both (À )-1 and (À )-2 dimers confirmed the more favourable formation… Show more
“…5–8 One simple motif that is commonly found in these molecules is the amide group. 9–11 Herein we report the first synthesis, characterization, and solid-state self-assembly of a remarkably small molecule containing three amide groups, trilactam 1 (Fig. 1), which was first proposed and modelled as a scaffold for supramolecular structures in 1993 12 and has been the target of synthetic efforts from several research groups at the latest since 1971.…”
The challenging synthesis of a fused C3-symmetric trilactam (1) was executed in racemic and enantiomerically pure form. The rigidity, symmetry and high density of hydrogen bonding motifs of compound make...

Chiral cyclic trilactams ((+)-1 and (–)-1) with C3 symmetry were investigated as adsorbents of solid phase microextraction (SPME). Perfume sample, involving a range of chiral odor active terpenoids, was applied...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
