Amino acids, 39(1), 309-314 (2010-01-19)
The title compound, 2-(phenylethyl)ammonium hydrogensquarate hemihydrate, was synthesized and structurally and spectroscopically characterized by a single crystal X-ray diffraction and solid-state polarized IR spectroscopy of oriented colloids in a nematic host. The crystal structure consists of two crystallographically independent 2-(phenylethyl)ammonium

A squarylium (SQ) dye was synthesized by the reaction between squaric acid and 2,3,3-trimethylindolenine and its anion sensing properties were investigated using absorption and emission spectroscopy. This chemosensor exhibited high selectivity for CN(-) as compared with F(-), CH(3)CO(2)(-), Br(-), H(2)PO(4)(-)

Bacteria use long proteinaceous appendages, called fimbriae or pili, to adhere to the surfaces of their host cells. Widely distributed among the Enterobacteriacae are type 1 fimbriae that mediate mannose-specific bacterial adhesion through the lectin FimH, located at the fimbrial

We have applied a combination of spectroscopic and diffraction methods to study the adduct formed between squaric acid and bypridine, which has been postulated to exhibit proton transfer associated with a single-crystal to single-crystal phase transition at ca. 450 K.
Frederik Wurm et al.
Chemical communications (Cambridge, England), 49(71), 7815-7817 (2013-07-26)
A water-soluble squaric acid dialkyl diester derivative is presented, which enables one-pot, two-step amine-selective protein conjugation reactions with (functional) amines in water. This reagent not only allows all-aqueous protein modifications, but also tolerates e.g. hydroxyl groups and can also be
