Host-Guest Interactions of Sodiumsulfonatomethyleneresorcinarene and Quaternary Ammonium Halides : An Experimental-Computational Analysis of the Guest Inclusion Properties
The molecular recognition of nine quaternary alkyl- and aryl-ammonium halides (Bn) by two different receptors, Calkyl-tetrasodiumsulfonatomethyleneresorcinarene (An), were studied in solution using 1H NMR spectroscopy. Substitution of methylenesulfonate groups at 2-positions of resorcinol units resulted in an increase of cavity depth by ∼2.80 Å and a narrow cavity aperture compared to Calkyl-2-H-resorcinarenes. The effect of alkyl chain lengths on the endo-complexation, that is the ability to incorporate other than N-methyl chains inside the cavities, were investigated using ammonium cations of the type ⁺NH2(R1)(R2), (R1 = Me, Et, Bu, R2 = Bu, Ph, Bz ). The C−H⋯ interactions between guests …
