Description

1-Boc-4-ethynylpiperidine is a natural product that has been shown to bind to membranes and induce conformational changes in the membrane. This binding was mediated by a boronic ester group on the piperidine ring, which interacts with the hydrophobic membrane surface. The orientation of the molecule in relation to the membrane surface is determined by steric effects from its methyl groups. 1-Boc-4-ethynylpiperidine binds more tightly to undecane than to water, which may be due to its stronger hydrophobic interactions with the membrane surface. The functional theory of 1-Boc-4-ethynylpiperidine's mechanism of action is based on its ability to act as a nucleophile and react with a nucleophilic site on another molecule, such as an enzyme or membrane protein.
