Abstract Four bile acid-arene conjugates, 1,4-bis[dimethyl(3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cliolan-24-amidoethyl)ammoniomethyl]benzene dibromide (1), 1,3,5-tris[dimetliyl(3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholan-24-amidoethyl)ammoniomethyl]benzene tribromide (2), bis{4-[dimethyl-(3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholan-24-amidoethyl)ammoniomethyl]phenyl}diazene dibromide (3), and bis{4-[dimethyl(3 alpha-hydroxy-5 beta-cholan-24-amidoethyl)ammoniomethyl]phenyl}diazene dibromide (4), have been synthesized in good yields, and their structures have been characterized by H-1, C-13, C-13 DEPT-135, PFG H-1, C-13 HMQC, PFG H-1, C-13 HMBC, and PFG H-1, N-15 HMBC NMR spectra. Their molecular weights and elemental compositions have been determined by ESI-TOF mass spectrometry and elemental analyses. Trans to cis isomerization of azobenzene derivatives 3 and 4 have also been studied. It was found that by increasing the hydrophobicity of bile acid moiety (from cholyl to lithocholyl) the trans to cis photoinduced isomerization tendency is increased in a protic solvent.
