• The cyclen based aromatic diaza-15-crown-5 and 18-crown-6 ether conjugates 1Tb-4Tb were designed as luminescent switches for sodium and potassium where the delayed Tb(III) emission, occurring as line-like emission bands between 490-622 nm, was 'switched on' upon recognition of these ions in pH 7.4 buffered water solution [7].

Biological context of Ethylene oxide cyclic hexamer

• The molecular structure of Ba[CN4(NiPr2)]2(18-crown-6) is similar to that of Ba[CN4(NMe2)]2(18-crown-6), except that the tetrazolato ligands exhibit the isomeric 2,3-eta2-coordination mode and the tetrazolato ligand CN4 cores are bent significantly toward the 18-crown-6 ligands [8].

Associations of Ethylene oxide cyclic hexamer with other chemical compounds

• The addition of an achiral crown ether (18-crown-6) to a cyclodextrin-based separation can significantly affect the capillary electrophoresis (CE) enantioresolution of organic racemates that contain a primary amine functional group [13].

• To determine a large group simultaneously, a capillary electrophoresis procedure is developed with indirect UV at 214 nm in a three-complex buffer system (10 mM N,N-dimethylbenzylamine (DBA), 8 mM lactic acid and 2 mM 18-crown-6) with good mobility matching with desired cations [15].
• A mixture consisting of chloride, bromide, nitrate, lithium, magnesium, sodium, calcium, potassium, and ammonium was separated in less than 3.5 min using a background electrolyte comprising 6 mM imidazole, 12 mM hydroxyisobutyric acid, 0.1 mM DDAB, 2 mM 18-crown-6 at pH 4.0, with indirect detection at 210 nm [16].
• Among these lariat ethers, the alcohol-armed 18-crown-6 derivative offered the highest solubilization efficiency for cytochrome c via supramolecular complexation [17].

Gene context of Ethylene oxide cyclic hexamer

• When [K(+)] was controlled with 18-crown-6, the observed rate constant k(ex) was a linear function of uncomplexed [K(+)], giving k(K) = (4.3 +/- 0.1) x 10(4) L(2) mol(-2) s(-1) at 25 degrees C and I = 0.26 mol L(-1) for the K(+)-catalyzed pathway [18].
• Thus, a model hexapeptide was synthesized using Fmoc chemistry containing Lys and Arg residues, which, when complexed with 18-Crown-6, was readily soluble in DCM and coupled quantitatively to a resin-bound tetrapeptide [19].
• They lowered cell's viability and significantly promoted ROS generation, increased enzyme activities and enhanced oxidative damages in which 18-crown-6 was more effective [9].

• Isothermal calorimetric titration of 18-crown-6 ether with BaCl2 in pure aqueous solution over the temperature range 7-40 degrees C gives precise binding constants and enthalpy changes [23].
• A much stronger crown ether activation is observed when 18-crown-6 is added prior to lyophilization, and this can be explained by a combination of two effects: the before-mentioned macrocyclic complexation effect, and a less specific, nonmacrocyclic, lyoprotecting effect [24].
• A method for the determination of N1-Methylnicotinamide (NMNA) was developed by the fluorescence formed by UV irradiation after separation by HPLC with a mobile phase containing hydrogen peroxide and 18-crown-6 [25].
