Alex Papantones λ abs = nm λ abs = nm λ abs = nm Background The molecules involved bind as “host” and “guest” molecules. The two molecules are complementary, and can form a coordination complex between each other that the host molecule cannot form with any other molecule. A good analogy is a keyhole and a key. The guest will easily bond to the host but any other guest molecule will not be able to bind to the host molecule at all. Molecular Recognition Polymerization details Polymers purified by dialysis - For this project concentrations of MAA were 0, 10, or 20 mol% - Reaction reaches completion in minutes - Free Radical synthesis, can use water or acetonitrile as solvent Properties of polyNIPA PolyNIPA has a Lower Critical Solution Temperature (LCST) of 32°C. It is soluble in water below this temperature and will aggregate out of solution at higher temperatures. This process is reversible 4. Vials of 40 mg/mL polyNIPA 20% MAA in pH 7 HBES buffer at 65°C (left) and 20°C (right) When the polymerization is carried out at high temperature in the presence of a template molecule, the molecules are surrounded by aggregated polymer imprinting that molecule into the polymer structure. Allowing the polymer to relax to the random coil state releases the template molecules during dialysis 5. Zeta Potential is the electrical potential between the dispersion medium and the stationary area of fluid attached to a dispersed particle. It can also be described as electrical potential in the interfacial double layer (DL) at the location of the slipping plane versus a point in the bulk fluid away from the interface. A value of 30 mV (+ or -) would be considered to be a highly charged, stable 2 -There is a charge on the outer surfaces of polymer interacting with the solution -High zeta potential can tell us precisely at what temp LCST occurs Can often give us clues as to the structure of a polymer aggregate -Measured by Zetasizer Nano instrument using Laser Doppler Velicometry 3 Effect of QXE on zeta for polyNIPA 20% MAA 1.00 g/L LCST 10 mV more stable than unimprinted polymer Increase in LCST Diagram of a 1,5- naphthyridine molecule being bound by polyNIPA/MAA Results The term “molecular recognition” describes specific interactions between two or more molecules that involve non-covalent bonding including hydrogen bonds, metal coordination, hydrophobic interactions, Van Der Walls interactions, π - π interactions, and electrostatic effects 1. Molecular recognition is extremely common among biomolecules 1. Biological receptors are highly selective to their complimentary substrates and are often stereoselective, but are very complex molecules that are difficult to synthesize. In addition each receptor is only useful for binding to unique substrates. A solution to this problem pursued in this project is a form of molecular imprinting using Uncrosslinked polymers of N- isopropylacrylamide and methacrylic acid to selectively bind analytes.

It does not seem to make a difference if the temperature is raised above 45C --.New Experiment using RAFT polymerization to synthesize polymer, Vinylpyradine as recognition monomer, and Nitrophenols as target molecules. -Calculate relative selectivity ratios, or distribution ratios between the three polymers using equilibrium dialysis experiments and solutions of mixed analyte molecules. -Replicate the selective binding results I got for the two uncrosslinked polymers using similar binding experiments with a wider variety of crosslinked polymers. -Expand the molecular imprinting to amino acids and chiral molecules. It would be a major breakthrough to be able to selectively bind chiral molecules like in a real biochemical sensor. -Further characterization of the selective polymers by GPC and light scattering to determine the polydispersity and molecular weight.
