- recognition of chiral ammonium ions by crown ethers Chiral ammonium salts are found in many biologically active molecules. The enantioselective discrimination of such molecules is of interest as the biological properties of enantiomers may differ [131]. Since Cram et al. synthesized BINAP-crown ethers, which

- ; thus, the biological properties of complanine can be understood as controlling this cascade [2]. From a structural perspective, complanine possesses amphipathic properties due to its characteristic unsaturated carbon chain and a γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-derived trimethylammonium substructure. Natural

The biological activities of both enantiomers were examined, but no significant difference between them was observed based on the inflammatory activity on a mouse foot pad.
