N-Tosylpyrrolidine calix[4]pyrrole: synthesis and ion binding studies.

ABSTRACT: The synthesis and preliminary solution phase ion binding properties of the N-tosylpyrrolidine calix[4]pyrrole 2 are reported. This ?-octaalkyl-substituted calix[4]pyrrole, the first to be prepared via a direct condensation reaction, was obtained by reacting the 3,4-alkyl-functionalized pyrrole 8 with acetone in the presence of an acid catalyst. On the basis of (1)H NMR spectroscopic analyses and isothermal titration calorimetry, it was concluded that, compared with the parent, ?-unsubstituted calix[4]pyrrole (1), compound 2 possesses significantly enhanced binding ability for halide anions in chloroform. Furthermore, 2 proved capable of solubilizing in chloroform solution the otherwise insoluble salts, CsF and CsCl. These effects are ascribed to the interactions between the four tosyl groups present in 2 and the counter cations of the halide anion salts.

Cesium Halide Ion Pair Recognition by a Pyrrole Strapped Calix[4]pyrrole.

Project description:The binding properties of the pyrrole-strapped calix[4]pyrrole 2 for cesium halide ion pairs were studied via 1H NMR spectroscopic and single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Receptor 2 was found to bind CsF, CsCl, and CsBr in the solid state and in chloroform/methanol (4/1, v/v) solution with relatively high affinity as compared with the parent calix[4]pyrrole 1. It was also revealed by solid-liquid extraction experiments that receptor 2 was capable of solubilizing CsF in CDCl3, a medium in which this salt is otherwise insoluble. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and 1H NMR spectroscopic data recorded in 20% CD3OD in CDCl3 provide support for the suggestion that the strap pyrrolic NH proton of 2, as well as those of the calix[4]pyrrole framework, contribute to anion recognition, thus increasing affinity for cesium halide salts relative to the parent system 1. In the solid state, receptor 2 interacts with CsF to form a two dimensional coordination polymer in the presence of methanol. A linear coordination polymer is observed in the case of CsCl and CsBr. Receptor 2 was also found to form a complex with CsF in chloroform/methanol (4/1, v/v) solution, albeit with a different binding mode than is seen in the solid state.

Crown-6-calix[4]arene-capped calix[4]pyrrole: an ion-pair receptor for solvent-separated CsF ions.

Project description:An ion-pair receptor, 1, containing both cation- and anion-recognizing sites, has been synthesized and characterized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction structural studies and (1)H NMR spectroscopic analyses confirmed that 1 forms stable 1:1 complexes with CsF in solution and in the solid state in spite of the large separation enforced between the receptor-bound anion and cation. In 9:1 CDCl3/CD3OD, binding of fluoride anion within the calix[4]pyrrole core of 1 was not observed in the absence of a cobound cesium cation; however, it was seen in this solvent mixture under conditions where a Cs(+) cation was bound to the crown ether-strapped calix[4]arene subunit.

A photoswitchable strapped calix[4]pyrrole receptor: highly effective chloride binding and release.

Project description:A stiff-stilbene strapped calix[4]pyrrole receptor can be reversibly switched by light between a strong chloride-binding Z-isomer and a very weakly binding E-isomer. The light-induced switching process is monitored by UV-Vis and 1H NMR spectroscopy and chloride binding is studied in detail using both 1H NMR and ITC titrations in DMSO and MeCN. In DMSO, at millimolar concentrations, switching from a fully bound to an almost fully unbound state can be triggered. Quantification of the binding constants in MeCN reveals an extraordinary 8000-fold affinity difference between the Z- and E-isomer. Single crystal X-ray crystallographic analysis gives insight into the structure of the photogenerated E-isomer and the geometry of the chloride-bound receptors is optimized by DFT calculations. The highly effective control of binding affinity demonstrated in this work opens up new prospects for on demand binding and release in extractions and photocontrol of membrane transport processes, among other applications.

Photoswitching of halide-binding affinity and selectivity in dithienylethene-strapped calix[4]pyrrole.

Project description:Dithienylethene-strapped calix[4]pyrrole is isomerized by 300/630 nm light between ring-open and -closed isomers, which affects the size of the anion binding site. Where for chloride this results in only a small change in affinity, that of the larger bromide and iodide ions is majorly affected, resulting in altered selectivity.

Ion-pair recognition by a neutral [2]rotaxane based on a bis-calix[4]pyrrole cyclic component.

Project description:In this work, we report our investigations on the synthesis of a [2]rotaxane based on a bis(calix[4]pyrrole) cyclic component and a 3,5-bis-amidepyridyl-N-oxide derivative axle. We isolated the [2]rotaxane in a significant 50% yield through an optimized "in situ" capping strategy using the copper(i)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. The synthetic precursor of the [2]rotaxane, featuring [2]pseudorotaxane topology, could be quantitatively assembled in solution in the presence of one equivalent of tetrabutylammonium chloride or cyanate salts producing a four-particle aggregate. However, we observed that the addition of the salt was deleterious not only for the isolation of the [2]rotaxane in its pure form but, more important, for the optimal performance of the copper catalyst. We probed the interaction of the prepared [2]rotaxane with tetraalkylammonium salts of chloride, nitrate and cyanate anions by means of 1H NMR titrations and ITC experiments. We show that in chloroform solution the [2]rotaxane functions as an efficient heteroditopic receptor for the salts forming thermodynamically and kinetically highly stable ion-paired complexes with 1 : 1 stoichiometry. At millimolar concentration and using 1H NMR spectroscopy we observed that the addition of more than 1 equiv. of the salt induced the gradual disassembly of the 1 : 1 complex of the [2]rotaxane and the concomitant formation of higher stoichiometry aggregates i.e. 2 : 1 complexes.

A chiral "Siamese-Twin" calix[4]pyrrole tetramer.

Project description:We describe our results in the attempted template syntheses of oligomacrocycle calix[4]pyrrole dimer 4, using Hay coupling reaction conditions, tetraalkynyl calix[4]pyrrole 5 as starting material and two bipyridyl N-oxides of different length as templates. We found that the short bis-N-oxide 3 was not an efficient template for the macrocyclization reaction producing an insoluble crude reaction mixture containing exclusively oligomerization and polycondensation products. On the other hand, when we used the long bis-N-oxide 6 as template we obtained a soluble crude reaction mixture in which we did not detect the expected calix[4]pyrrole dimer 4. Instead, we isolated, in low yield, an encapsulation complex of the bis-N-oxide 6 in a partially reacted calix[4]pyrrole dimer. The major isolated species was an unprecedented calix[4]pyrrole tetramer encapsulating two molecules of 6. The complex adopted a chiral helical-like conformation in the solid state resembling the previously described so-called "Siamese-Twin porphyrins".

Project description:In the title compound, C(35)H(47)ClN(4)O, the two pyrrolidine rings have envelope conformations. The conformation of the macrocycle is stabilized by N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds and a C-H⋯N inter-action. The benzoyl ring is inclined to the adjacent pyrrole ring by 11.66 (11)°, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.7488 (13) Å. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into helical chains propagating in [010] and C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π interactions are also observed.

4-Meth-oxy-benzoyl-meso-octa-methyl-calix[2]pyrrolidino[2]pyrrole: an acyl chloride derivative of a partially reduced calix[4]pyrrole.

Project description:In the title compound, C(36)H(50)N(4)O(2), the two pyrrolidine rings have envelope conformations. The conformation of the macrocycle is stabilized by N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds and a C-H⋯N inter-action. The benzoyl ring is inclined to an adjacent pyrrole ring by 6.76 (9)°, with a centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.6285 (10) Å. In the crystal, apart from a C-H⋯O and a C-H⋯π inter-action, mol-ecules are linked via an N-H⋯O hydrogen bond, leading to the formation of helical chains propagating along [010].

Structural Modulation of Chromic Response: Effects of Binding-Site Blocking in a Conjugated Calix[4]pyrrole Chromophore.

Project description:Herein, we modulate the chromic response of a highly colored tetrapyrrole macrocycle, namely, tetrakis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-oxocyclohexadien-2,5-yl)porphyrinogen (OxP) by structural modification. N-Benzylation at the macrocyclic nitrogen atoms leads to stepwise elimination of the two calix[4]pyrrole-type binding sites of OxP and serial variation of the chromic properties of the products, double N-benzylated Bz2OxP and tetra N-benzylated Bz4OxP. The halochromic (response to acidity) and solvatochromic (response to solvent polarity) properties were studied by using UV/Vis spectroscopy and NMR spectroscopy in nonpolar organic solvents. Titration experiments were used to generate binding isotherms to elucidate their binding properties with difluoroacetic acid. Differences in the halochromic properties of the compounds allowed construction of a colorimetric scale of acidity in nonpolar solvents, as the compounds in the series OxP, Bz2OxP, and Bz4OxP are increasingly difficult to protonate but maintain their propensity to change color upon protonation. The concurrent effects of binding-site blocking and modulation of acidity sensitivity are important new aspects for the development of colorimetric indicators.

Fast reactivity of a cyclic nitrone-calix[4]pyrrole conjugate with superoxide radical anion: theoretical and experimental studies.

Project description:Nitrone spin traps have been employed as probes for the identification of transient radical species in chemical and biological systems using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and have exhibited pharmacological activity against oxidative-stress-mediated diseases. Since superoxide radical anion (O2(•-)) is a major precursor to most reactive oxygen species and calix[4]pyrroles have been shown to exhibit high affinity to anions, a cyclic nitrone conjugate of calix[4]pyrrole (CalixMPO) was designed, synthesized, and characterized. Computational studies at the PCM/B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p)//B3LYP/6-31G(d) level suggest a pendant-type linkage between the calix[4]pyrrole and the nitrone to be the most efficient design for spin trapping of O2(•-), giving exoergic reaction enthalpies (?H(298K,aq)) and free energies (?G(298K,aq)) of -16.9 and -2.1 kcal/mol, respectively. (1)H NMR study revealed solvent-dependent conformational changes in CalixMPO leading to changes in the electronic properties of the nitronyl group upon H-bonding with the pyrrole groups as also confirmed by calculations. CalixMPO spin trapping of O2(•-) exhibited robust EPR spectra. Kinetic analysis of O2(•-) adduct formation and decay in polar aprotic solvents using UV-vis stopped-flow and EPR methods gave a larger trapping rate constant for CalixMPO and a longer half-life for its O2(•-) adduct compared to the commonly used nitrones. The unusually high reactivity of CalixMPO with O2(•-) was rationalized to be due to the synergy between the ?-effect and electrostatic effect by the calix[4]pyrrole moiety on O2(•-) and the nitrone, respectively. This work demonstrates for the first time the application of an anion receptor for the detection of one of the most important radical intermediates in biological and chemical systems (i.e., O2(•-)).
