Application

2-Aminomethyl-18-crown-6 (AM-18-C-6) can be used to prepare:
  • AM-18-C-6 bonded Merrifield peptide resin, which is used to study the absorption and the isotopic effect of magnesium.
  • Schiff base of gossypol with aminomethyl crown ether for complexation of monovalent cations.
  • Crown tagged triarylphosphine by reacting with triphenylphosphine carboxylic acid. These tagged triarylphosphine reagents are used in Mitsunobu and Heck reactions for the removal of phosphine derived by-products.
  • 1,16-hexadecanoyl-bis-(2-aminomethyl)-18-crown-6 (bola A-16), which is utilized as a vesicular carrier in a drug delivery system.
