An, Dong,Feng, Dexin
, p. 653 - 662 (2019/02/25)
Series of glucosyl esters derivatives were synthesized by enzymatic acylation and some surface properties, and cell activity were calculated and tested. The antitumor activity in vitro against three cancer cells, human colon carcinoma (K562), human hepatoma (HepG2), and human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) of compounds, were evaluated using MTT methods. The glucosyl esters could significantly displayed high anticancer activity. Thereinto, compounds 12 and 12′ showed higher inhibition effect to cancer cells than others. Several compounds were more active than control drug 5-FU. The structure–activity relationship analysis revealed that lipophilic properties might be essential parameter for their activity.

An, Dong,Zhao, Xiaohui,Ye, Zhiwen
, p. 32 - 38 (2015/07/20)
Enzyme-catalyzed synthesis of several fatty acyl-amino acid esters based on d-galactose, as well as their chemical evaluation, was performed. These novel galactosyl fatty acyl-amino acid monoesters were synthesized by utilizing lipase from lipozyme TL IM in tert-butanol with d-galactose and fatty acyl-amino acids as starting materials. The products were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and MS analysis. In addition, their primary physical properties, such as hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB), critical micellar concentration (CMC), solubility in water, maximum surface excess (Γmax), and minimal surface tension (Amin) were measured. The experimental results showed that their CMC values are between 5 and 0.4 mM. The HLB values of galactosyl esters 15-17 indicate that they are useful as oil-in-water emulsions or detergents, whereas 18-22 can be employed as water-in-oil emulsifiers or wetting agents.
Structure and thermotropic phase behavior of a homologous series of n -Acylglycines: Neuroactive and antinociceptive constituents of biomembranes

N-Acylglycines (NAGs) with different acyl chains have been found in the mammalian brain and other tissues. They exhibit significant biological and pharmacological properties and appear to play important roles in communication and signaling pathways within and between cells. In view of this, a homologous series of NAGs have been synthesized and characterized in the present study. Differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) studies show that the transition enthalpies and entropies of dry as well as hydrated NAGs exhibit a linear dependence on the acyl chain length. Most of the NAGs show a minor transition below the chain-melting phase transition, suggesting the presence of polymorphism in the solid state. Structures of N-myristoylglycine (NMG) and N-palmitoylglycine (NPG) were solved in monoclinic system with C2/c and P21 space groups, respectively. Analysis of the crystal structures show that NAGs are organized in a bilayer fashion, with head-to-head (and tail-to-tail) arrangement of molecules. The acyl chains in both structures are essentially perpendicular to the bilayer plane, which is consistent with a lack of odd-even alternation in the thermodynamic properties. The bilayer is stabilized by strong hydrogen bonding interactions between COOH groups of the molecules from opposite leaflets as well as N-H···O hydrogen bonds between the amide groups of adjacent molecules in the same leaflet and dispersion interactions among the acyl chains. Powder X-ray diffraction data show that the d-spacings for the NAGs with different acyl chains (n = 8-20) exhibit a linear dependence on the chain length, suggesting that all the NAGs investigated here adopt a similar packing arrangement in the crystal lattice. These observations are relevant for understanding the role of N-acylglycines in biological membranes.
N-Alkylamido-d-glucamine-based gelators for the generation of thixotropic gels

, p. 48554 - 48558 (2014/12/10)
Hydrogels made from new gelators, composed of the alkyl chain and a d-glucamine moiety linked together with glycine(s), exhibit thixotropic properties, whereas the hydrogels formed with structurally similar N-alkyl-d-glucamide, which do not contain the glycine moiety, have a tendency to crystallize and do not show thixotropic behaviour.
The relationship between the structure and properties of amino acid surfactants based on glycine and serine
Qiao, Weihong,Qiao, Yangyang
, p. 821 - 828 (2013/11/06)
Two series of surfactants based on glycine and serine were synthesized with aproic acid, octanoic acid, decanoic acid, dodecanoic acid, tetradecanoic acid and hexadecanoic acid. All the surfactants were characterized by MS and 1H NMR, the structures of the synthesized surfactants are correct and the signals in MS and 1H NMR can be explained. The reaction conditions, surface properties and foam properties were studied. For the two series of surfactants, critical micelle concentration (CMC) and γ CMC (surface tension at CMC) decrease and surface activity is enhanced as the length of carbon chain increases. The surfactants with tetradecanoyl and hexadecanoyl groups show a good foaming property and especially, the long-chain acyl-serine performs better. These are all related to the hydromethyl group in the serine.

This work reports the synthesis of new fatty N-acylamino acids and N-acylamino esters from the C16:0, C18:0, C18:1, and C18:1(OH) fatty acid families and demonstrates the activity of these compounds as organogel agents. Compounds were heated and dissolved in various solvents (n-hexane, toluene, and gasoline). Only saturated C16:0 and C18:0 derived from alanine were able to form gels in toluene, and saturated C16:0 derived from phenylalanine showed gelation in n-hexane. This is the first evidence that fatty N-acylamino esters and N-acylamino acid derivatives of l-serine and fatty acids C16:0, C18:0, and C18:1 are able to form gels with hexane. This observation confirms the importance of the hydroxyl group in the segment derivative of l-serine in forming good gels.
