Abstract
An efficient procedure has been developed for the synthesis of new chiral cholic acid molecular tweezer artificial receptors by linking an unsymmetrically disubstituted urea to methyl deoxycholate via a carbonate chain using microwave irradiation. The structures of these new receptors were confirmed by 1H NMR, IR, MS spectra and elemental analysis. Their binding properties were examined by UV-Vis spectra titration. The preliminary results indicate that these molecular tweezers not only recognised anions, but also showed good enantioselectivity for D-amino acid methyl esters.
