General description

18-Crown-6 is a crown ether. Crown ethers are large ring polyethers. These compounds are cyclic polymers of ethylene glycol, named in the form x-crown-y, where x denotes the total number of atoms in the ring and y is number of oxygens. Hence, 18-Crown-6 is basically the cyclic hexamer of ethylene glycol.[1]

Application

Achiral crown ether (18-Crown-6) may be used as the mobile phase in capillary electrochromatography, used for enantiomeric separation of 15 cationic compounds.[2]
Can be useful as phase-transfer catalysts.

Other Notes

Macrocyclic polyethers with repeating (-CH2CH2O) units. The compounds are ionophoric (form stable complexes with cations).

Enantiomeric separation by capillary electrochromatography with beta-cyclodextrin-bonded negatively charged polyacrylamide gels was examined. The columns used are capillaries filled with a negatively charged polyacrylamide gel, a so-called monolithic stationary phase, to which allyl carbamoylated beta-CD (AC-beta-CD) derivatives covalently bind.

We report infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectra for a series of crown-adducted, protonated amino acids, generated by electrospray ionization. The tight chelation of 18-crown-6 on the protonated NH(3)(+) moiety results in a considerable red shift of the NH(3)(+) stretch

Addition of potassium superoxide with 18-crown-6 ether (KO(2)(•-)-18-crown-6) to a toluene solution of an acridinium ion-linked porphyrin triad (Acr(+)-H(2)P-Acr(+)) resulted in a remarkable enhancement of the fluorescence intensity. Thus, Acr(+)-H(2)P-Acr(+) acts as an efficient fluorescence sensor for superoxide. Electron transfer
