Host–Guest Chemistry: Oxoanion Recognition Based on Combined Charge‐Assisted C−H or Halogen‐Bonding Interactions and Anion⋅⋅⋅Anion Interactions Mediated by Hydrogen Bonds

Several bis-triazolium-based receptors have been synthesized and their anion-recognition capabilities have been studied. The central chiral 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol (BINOL) core features either two aryl or ferrocenyl end-capped side arms with central halogen- or hydrogen-bonding triazolium receptors. NMR spectroscopic data indicate the simultaneous occurrence of several charge-assisted aliphatic and heteroaromatic C-H noncovalent interactions and combinations of C-H hydrogen and halogen bonding. The receptors are able to selectively interact with HP2 O7 (3-) , H2 PO4 (-) , and SO4 (2-) anions, and the value of the association constant follows the sequence: HP2 O7 (3-) >SO4 (2-) >H2 PO4 (-) . The …

Synthesis, Structure and Anion Sensing Properties of a Dicationic Bis(imidazolium)-Based Cyclophane

The preparation and sensing properties of a tetracyclic cyclophane receptor containing two imidazolium rings as anion binding sites and two fluorene rings as fluorescent signaling units, are reported. The receptor behaves as a selective fluorescent chemosensor molecule for inorganic phosphates. H-NMR spectroscopical data clearly indicate the simultaneous occurrence of charge-assisted aromatic and aliphatic C−H noncovalent interactions. PCM/DFT calculations have been carried out to predict the structures of the complexes formed with one and two molecules of PF , HPO and HPO .

Exploiting 1,4-naphthoquinone and 3-iodo-1,4-naphthoquinone motifs as anion binding sites by hydrogen or halogen-bonding interactions

We describe here the utilization of 1,4-naphthoquinone and 3-iodo-1,4-naphthoquinone motifs as new anion binding sites by hydrogen- or halogen-bonding interactions, respectively. These binding sites have been integrated in bidentate ester based receptors. Emission experiments reveal that both receptors selectively recognize sulfate anions, which induced a remarkable increase of a new emission band attributed to the formation of π-stacking interactions between two 1,4-naphthoquinone units. Absorption spectroscopy and mass spectrometry indicate the disruption of the ester group of the 1,4-naphthoquinone based receptor in the presence of HP2O73−, H2PO4−, F−, AcO− and C6H5CO2− and in the haloge…

2,4,5-Trimethylimidazolium Scaffold for Anion Recognition Receptors Acting Through Charge-Assisted Aliphatic and Aromatic C–H Interactions

A series of two-armed 2,4,5-trimethylimidazolium-based oxoanion receptors, which incorporate two end-capped photoactive anthracene rings, being the central core an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring, has been designed. In the presence of HP2O7(3-), H2PO4(-), and SO4(2-) anions, (1)H- and (31)P NMR spectroscopical data clearly indicate the simultaneous occurrence of several charge-assisted aliphatic and aromatic C-H noncovalent interactions, i.e., significant downfield shifts were observed for the imidazolium C(2)-CH3 protons, the methylene N-CH2 protons, and the inner aromatic proton or the outer heteroaromatic protons. Density functional theory calculations confirm the occurrence of these non…
