Abstract

Two series of well-defined dimeric metallo-bolaamphiphiles (bola surfactants) with the coordinated metal ions (Cu, Co, Zn) were prepared. These oligomeric surfactants consist of simple monomeric cationic surfactant fragments which are coupled via the hydrophilic ammonium chloride head groups by C6 and C12 spacer groups of different lengths. FTIR and 1HNMR identification techniques confirmed the obtained products. Measurements of surface tensions showed that the synthesized Bola amphiphiles have the desired, relatively low critical micelle formation concentrations (CMC). Bola amphiphiles with long spacer groups (C12) have a pronounced surface activity. The properties of these cationic surfactant oligomers in aqueous solution such as micellization and surface activity were discussed in relation to spacer group. In addition, the synthesized compounds were examined for their anti-microbial activity using the agar diffusion technique.

Kurzfassung

Es wurden zwei Serien gut definierter Metallo-Bolaamphiphile (Metallo-Bolatenside) mit den koordinierten Metallionen Cu, Co, Zn hergestellt. Diese oligomeren Tenside bestehen aus einfachen kationischen monomeren Tensidfragmenten, die über die hydrophilen Ammoniumchlorid-Kopfgruppen durch unterschiedlich lange C6- und C12-Spacergruppen gekoppelt sind. FTIR- und 1HNMR-Identifizierungstechniken bestätigten die erhaltenen Produkte. Messungen der Oberflächenspannungen zeigten, dass die synthetisierten Bola-Amphiphile die erwünschten, relativ niedrigen kritischen Mizellenbildungskonzentrationen (CMC) haben. Bolaamphiphile mit langen Spacergruppen (C12) haben eine ausgeprägte Oberflächenaktivität. Die Eigenschaften dieser kationischen Tensid-Oligomere in wässriger Lösung wie Mizellisierung und Oberflächenaktivität wurden in Bezug auf die Spacer-Gruppe diskutiert. Darüber hinaus wurden die synthetisierten Verbindungen mit Hilfe der Agardiffusionstechnik auf ihre antimikrobielle Aktivität untersucht.
