Structural characterization of the title compound, C10H15N2 +·PF6 −, shows it to be ionic, with the pyridine rather than the piperidine N atom being protonated and forming hydrogen bonds to the counter-ions, resulting in two independent ion pairs. A number of unusual features are noted, in particular the remarkably close inter-ring hydrogen contacts [1.97 (3)–2.00 (3) Å] and the considerable differences in the pair of cations, in respect of the torsion angles within the piperidine ring involving the bonds to either side of the N atom.

Single crystals of [2-CH3CH2C6H4NH3]6P6O18⋅4H2O are synthesized in aqueous solution by the interaction of cyclohexaphosphoric acid and 2-ethylaniline. This compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system with P21/c space group the unit cell dimensions are: a=16.220(4) Å, b=10.220(5) Å, c=20.328(4) Å, β=113.24(3)∘, Z=2, and V=3096.5(18) Å3. The atomic arrangement can be described by layers formed by cyclohexaphosphate anions P6O186− and water molecules connected by hydrogen bonds O–H⋯O. These inorganic layers are developed around bc planes at x=1/2 and are interconnected by the H-bonds created by ammonium groups of organic cations. All the hydrogen bonds, the van der Waals contacts and electrostatic interactions between the different entities give rise to a three-dimensional network in the structure and add stability to this compound. The thermal behaviour and the IR spectroscopic studies of this new cyclohexaphosphate are discussed.

As a novel class of biomaterials, nucleopeptides, via the conjugation of nucleobases and peptides, usually self-assemble to form nanofibres driven mainly by hydrogen bonds. Containing nucleobase(s), nucleopeptides have a unique property—interacting with nucleic acids. Here we report the design and characterization of nucleopeptides that self-assemble in water and are able to interact with single-stranded DNAs (ssDNAs). Containing nucleobases on their side chains, these nucleopeptides bind with the ssDNAs, and the ssDNAs reciprocally affect the self-assembly of nucleopeptides. In addition, the interactions between nucleopeptides and ssDNAs also decrease their proteolytic resistance against proteinase K, which further demonstrates the binding with ssDNAs. The nucleopeptides also interact with plasmid DNA and deliver hairpin DNA into cells. This work illustrates a new and rational approach to create soft biomaterials by the integration of nucleobases and peptides to bind with DNA, which may lead to the development of nucleopeptides for controlling DNA in cells.
