Subcomponent self‐assembly of a cyclic tetranuclear Fe(II) helicate in a highly diastereoselective self‐sorting manner

2019

Abstract An enantiomerically pure diamine based on the 4,15‐difunctionalized [2.2]paracyclophane scaffold and 2‐formylpyridine self‐assemble into an optically pure cyclic metallosupramolecular Fe4L6 helicate upon mixing with iron(II) ions in a diastereoselective subcomponent self‐assembly process. The cyclic assembly results from steric strain that prevents the formation of a smaller linear dinuclear triple‐stranded helicate, and hence, leads to the larger strain‐free assembly that fulfils the maximum occupancy rule. Interestingly, use of the racemic diamine also leads to a racemic mixture of the homochiral cyclic helicates as the major product in a highly diastereoselective narcissistic ch…

All-Solid-State Ag+-ISE Based on [2.2.2]p,p,p-Cyclophane

2001

All-solid-state ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) based on two ionophores with similar structure, i.e., [2.2.2] p,p,p-cyclophane and [2.2.2]m,p,p-cyclophane, were prepared and investigated. The ion-selective membranes were composed of the corresponding ionophore (1 %), potassium tetrakis(4-chlorophenyl)borate (0.5 %), 2-nitrophenyl octyl ether (65–66 %), and PVC (33 %). The ion-selective membrane was placed on top of a layer of the conducting polymer, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), working as ion-to-electron transducer. The resulting all-solid-state ISEs were conditioned in 0.01 M AgNO3 and investigated as Ag+-ISEs. The results show that [2.2.2] p,p,p-cyclophane is much more select…

The dianion of [2.2.2]paracyclophene; a 20 π-perimeter species?

1986

Abstract A new synthesis of [2.2.2]paracyclophene (1) is presented on reduction,(1) forms a stable dianion which is neither diatropic. nor paratropic. The apparent high symmetry of the dianion and the observed NMR chemical shifts are best explained by a rapid interconversion of a series of C 2-conformers.

Multiple catenanes based on tetraloop derivatives of calix[4]arenes

2009

Abstract Four novel tetraarylurea calix[4]arenes ( 4a – d ) have been synthesized, substituted by ω-alkenyloxy residues in 3,5-positions of the arylurea residues. The eight alkenyl groups were pairwise connected by olefin metathesis and subsequent hydrogenation. The ring-closure reaction was carried out with heterodimers exclusively formed by 4 with a tetratosylurea calix[4]arene 1 , which serves as a template in this reaction step. The potential trans-cavity bridging is entirely suppressed in this way. Bis- and tetraloop calix[4]arenes cannot form dimers due to overlapping loops. However, they readily form heterodimers with open-chain tetraureas, as long as their urea residues can pass thr…

Changing the size of a cavity via an electron-transfer: synthesis and reduction of 1,5,22,26-tetraoxa-[5,5]-(2,8)-dibenzo[a,e]cylooctatetraenophane

Abstract The synthesis and electron transfer reactions of the title compound, the first macrocycle incorporating two cyclooctatetraene units, are described.

Chemosensors displaying pH controlled multistage fluorescence emission

1999

A large number of systems displaying pH controlled multistages of fluorescence emission intensity, have not been recognized from this point of view. In this work we present two paradigmatic cases: (i) polyamine receptors linked to a fluorophore unit, in which the signal is modulated by an intra-molecular pH dependent electron transfer process, (ii) phenols presenting adiabatic excited state proton transfer. In the first example the chemosensors are constituted by a receptor unit containing a polyaza moiety suitable for binding protons (but also metal ions or anions). The receptor is linked to a benzene or naphthalene unit that acts as a fluorophore. The fluorescence signal is dependent on t…

Electrochemical response of ferrocenium filled calix[4]arene capsules in solution and immobilized on gold

2008

Abstract Hydrogen-bonded dimers of tetra-urea calix[4]arenes are able to include ferrocenium ions as a guest. Heterodimeric capsules are exclusively formed in 1:1 mixtures of tetra-arylurea calix[4]arene 1 with tetra-tosylurea calix[4]arene 2. Sulfide groups attached via spacers on the urea rim of 1 allow their binding to metal surfaces rendering simultaneously their dissociation more difficult. Thus, the electrochemical response of encapsulated ferrocenium could be studied in a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) in addition to the solution electrochemistry with cyclic voltammetry. The stability of the electrochemically active monolayers was tested after a heat treatment (225 °C for 30 min in N…

Modulation of N···I and +N−H···Cl−···I Halogen Bonding: Folding, Inclusion, and Self-Assembly of Tri- and Tetraamino Piperazine Cyclophanes

2010

The acidity of the crystallization conditions was successfully employed in modulating the balance between the robust intramolecular hydrogen bonding (HB) and intermolecular halogen bonding (XB) observed in large tri- (1) and tetraamino (2) piperazine cyclophanes. A careful crystallization of the title XB acceptor cyclophanes with a strong bidentate XB donor 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene (F4DIB) from CHCl3:MeOH, dimethylformamide (DMF), or HCl:H2O:EtOH resulted in X-ray quality crystals of 1·F4DIB, 2@DMF, 2·2@F4DIB, [1H3]Cl3·(F4DIB)6, and [2H6]Cl6·(F4DIB)2. The intramolecular hydrogen bonding pattern in 1 and 2 was retained in neutral protic and aprotic solvents, and regular N−H···N hydrogen …
