Abstract
Self-assembly is a widely studied, spontaneous, and reversible phenomenon leading to the formation of the ordered structures by non-covalent specific interactions among starting molecules. In this work, a new template for the self-assembly of polypeptides based on peptides containing the C-terminal histidinehydroxamic acid moiety and Cu2+ ions is characterized. Two peptide (tripeptide and pentadecapeptide) hydroxamic acid systems were synthesized and their interactions with Cu2+ ions were investigated, revealing a high stability of the supramolecular assemblies formed. The supramolecular metallacrown-based L4Cu5 complexes exist at physiological pH in the presence of Cu2+ ions as is evidenced from the spectroscopic methods, ESI mass spectrometry, and physicochemical techniques.
