Synthesis of a new aza crown ether (23-crown-7) with nanobiotechnology properties

Miniaturization is an essential ingredient of modern technology. A molecular machine can be defined as an assembly of a discrete number of molecular components- that is, a supramolecular system-in which the component parts can display changes in their relative positions as a result of some external stimulus. While nature provides living organisms with a wealth of molecular machines and motors of high structural and functional complexity, chemists are interested in the development of simpler, fully artificial systems. Interlocked chemical compounds like rotaxanes and catenanes are promising candidates for the construction of artificial molecular machines. The design, synthesis and investigation of chemical systems able to function as molecular machines and motors is of interest not only for basic research, but also for the growth of nanoscience and the subsequent development of nanobiotechnology1 .In this research work, for the synthesis of bis epoxide, biscresylesulfoxid was reacted with ally chloride and hydrogen peroxide, then, bis epoxide at the peresence of proper amine convert to this compound.
