General description

Bis(hexamethylene)triamine is an aliphatic polyamine. It is a spermidine analog and has been reported to lack the enhancing effect on mitochondrial Ca(2+) accumulation but shows inhibitory effect on the Ca(2+) and Pi-induced mitochondrial permeability transition.

Application

Bis(hexamethylene)triamine is the suitable reagent used in the synthesis of xylylated dimer of polyamine and as a solvent to coat amphiphilic polymer on CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) for enhanced water solubilization.
It may be used in the following studies:
  • Synthesis of bis(hexamethylene) triacetamide (BHTA) by acetylation.
  • As a precursors for the ZnO outgrowths on TiO2 nanofibers.
  • As organic bifunctional guest molecules for {W36} polyoxotungstate host compounds to form 1D chains of directly connected {W36} cluster units.

Dimeric norspermidine and spermidine derivatives are strong competitive inhibitors of polyamine transport. A xylyl tether was used for the dimerization of various triamines and spermine via a secondary amino group, and of putrescine via an ether or an amino group.

The aliphatic polyamine bis(hexamethylene)triamine, a spermidine analogue, was found to lack the enhancing effect on mitochondrial Ca(2+) accumulation which is typical for the natural polyamines, spermidine and spermine. However, like spermine and spermidine, this compound had a significant inhibitory effect

N,N'-Hexamethylenebisacetamide (HMBA) induces transformed cells to differentiate, accompanied by suppression of oncogenicity. Clinical trials have shown that HMBA can cause positive therapeutic responses in some cancer patients, but clinical efficacy may be limited, in part, by dose-related toxicity. Potential improvements

The {W36} isopolyoxotungstate cluster provides a stable inorganic molecular platform for the binding of inorganic and organic guest molecules. This is achieved by a binding pocket formed by six terminal oxo ligands located in the central cavity of the all-inorganic
