  • A Biosynthetically Inspired Synthetic Route to Substituted Furans, and Its Application to the Total Synthesis of the Furan Fatty
    A Biosynthetically Inspired Synthetic Route to Substituted Furans, and its Application to the Total Synthesis of the Furan Fatty Acid F5 A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree Doctor of Philosophy Robert Jack Lee Supervisors: Dr Gareth J. Pritchard and Dr Marc C. Kimber 1 Thesis Abstract Dietary fish oil supplementation has long been shown to have significant health benefits, largely stemming from the anti-inflammatory activity of the ω-3 and ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) present in fish oils. The anti-inflammatory properties of these fatty acids has been linked to beneficial health effects, such as protecting the heart, in individuals consuming diets rich in fish, or supplemented with fish oils.1 These effects are highly notable in the Māori people native to coastal regions of New Zealand; the significantly lower rates of heart problems compared to the inland populous has been attributed to the consumption of the green lipped mussel Perna Canaliculus. Commercially available health supplements based on the New Zealand green lipped mussel include a freeze-dried powder and a lipid extract (Lyprinol®), the latter of which has shown anti- inflammatory properties comparable to classical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as Naproxen.2 GCMS analysis of Lyprinol by Murphy et al. showed the presence of a class of ω-4 and ω-6 PUFAs bearing a highly electron rich tri- or tetra-alkyl furan ring, which were designated furan fatty acids (F-acids).3 Due to their instability, isolation of F- acids from natural sources cannot be carried out and a general synthetic route toward this class of natural products was required.

The scope of coverage includes all areas of chemical science including the interfaces with related disciplines such as biology, medicine and materials science. The goal of each thematic volume is to give the non-specialist reader, whether at the university or in industry, a comprehensive overview of an area where new insights are emerging that are of interest to larger scientific audience. Thus each review within the volume critically surveys one aspect of that topic and places it within the context of the volume as a whole. The most significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years should be presented. A description of the laboratory procedures involved is often useful to the reader. The coverage should not be exhaustive in data, but should rather be conceptual, concentrating on the methodological thinking that will allow the non-specialist reader to understand the information presented.

D. Cheng Dr. Stephen Z. D. Cheng _______________________________ _______________________________ Faculty Reader Dean of the Graduate School Dr. Mesfin Tsige Dr. George R. Newkome _______________________________ _______________________________ Department Chair Date Dr. Coleen Pugh ii ABSTRACT Perylene diimides (PDIs) have attracted the great interests of both academic and industrial people over decades of years because of their chemical stability, thermal stability, fluorescence, and photoactive property. They have been widely used as dyes, pigments, n-type organic semiconductors and organic field effect transistors (OFETs) and so on. However, in addition to molecular chemical nature, the self-assembly structure also deeply affected material’s macroscopic property and practical application. In order to get highly ordered assembly structure, we investigated the use of PDI-based derivatives as building blocks of supramolecular self-assembly and liquid crystals via modifying PDI’s imide position by alkyl chains and functional groups. Three tetrahedral PDI-based molecules tethering with different length of alkyl tails (decyl, dodecyl, tetradodecyl) and four cyano-substituted PDIs were successfully synthesized via a systematic and convenient method, getting rid of the low solubility of perylene. The chemical structures of products were fully characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectroscopy.
