Ordered co-encapsulation of chloride with polar neutral guests in a tetraurea calix[4]pyrrole dimeric capsule.

ABSTRACT: In this work, we describe the stoichiometrically controlled self-assembly process of tetraurea calix[4]pyrrole 1 with a polar neutral guest, trimethylamine N-oxide or beta-alanine betaine, and methyltrioctylammonium chloride (MTOACl) salt into two supramolecular architectures which differ in morphology and stoichiometry. Whereas an equimolar solution of tetraurea calixpyrrole 1, polar guest and MTOACl produces a four-particle inclusion assembly, a mixture of the same components in a 2?:?1?:?1 molar ratio induces the formation of a dimeric capsular assembly displaying multiple guests which are orderly co-encapsulated. The influence of other polar guests and ammonium salts on the self-assembly process is also described.

Calix[4]pyrrole as a chloride anion receptor: solvent and countercation effects.

Project description:The interaction of calixpyrrole with several chloride salts has been studied in the solid state by X-ray crystallography as well as in solution by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and (1)H NMR spectroscopic titrations. The titration results in dimethylsulfoxide, acetonitrile, nitromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, and dichloromethane, carried out using various chloride salts, specifically tetraethylammonium (TEA), tetrapropylammonium (TPA), tetrabutylammonium (TBA), tetraethylphosphonium (TEP), tetrabutylphosphonium (TBP), and tetraphenylphosphonium (TPhP), showed no dependence on method of measurement. The resulting affinity constants (K(a)), on the other hand, were found to be highly dependent on the choice of solvent with K(a)'s ranging from 10(2)-10(5) M(-1) being recorded in the test solvents used for this study. In dichloromethane, a strong dependence on the countercation was also seen, with the K(a)'s for the interaction with chloride ranging from 10(2)-10(4) M(-1). In the case of TPA, TBA, and TBP, the ITC data could not be fit to a 1:1 binding profile.

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.

Molecular recognition and self-assembly special feature: Self-assembly of dimeric tetraurea calix[4]pyrrole capsules.

Project description:Calix[4]pyrroles having extended aromatic cavities have been functionalized with 4 ureas in the para position of their meso phenyl substituents. This elaboration of the upper rim was completed in 2 synthetic steps starting from the alpha,alpha,alpha,alpha-tetranitro isomer of the calix[4]pyrrole obtained in the acid catalyzed condensation of p-nitrophenyl methyl ketone and pyrrole. In dichloromethane solution and in the presence of 4,4'-bipyridine N-N'-dioxide the tetraurea calix[4]pyrrole dimerizes reversibly forming a cyclic array of 16 hydrogen bonds and encapsulating 1 molecule of bis-N-oxide. The encapsulated guest is bound in the cavity by hydrogen bonding to the 2 endohedral calix[4]pyrrole centers. Further evidence for dimerization of the tetraurea calix[4]pyrroles is provided by (1)H-NMR experiments and by the formation of mixed capsules.

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.

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.

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".

ITC and NMR Analysis of the Encapsulation of Fatty Acids within a Water-Soluble Cavitand and its Dimeric Capsule.

Project description:We report here NMR and ITC studies of the binding of ionizable guests (carboxylate acids) to a deep-cavity cavitand. These studies reveal that the shortest guests favored 1:1 complex formation, but the longer the alkyl chain the more the 2:1 host-guest capsule is favored. For intermediate-sized guests, the equilibrium between these two states is controlled by pH; at low values the capsule containing the carboxylic acid guest is favored, whereas as the pH is raised deprotonation of the guest favors the 1:1 complex. Interestingly, for one host-guest pair the energy required to de-cap the 2:1 capsular complex and form the 1:1 complex is sufficient to shift the pKa of the guest by ~ 3-4 orders of magnitude (4.1-5.4 kcal mol-1). The two largest guests examined form stable 2:1 capsules, with in both cases the guest adopting a relatively high energy J-shaped motif. Furthermore, these 2:1 complexes are sufficiently stable that at high pH guest deprotonation occurs without de-capping of the capsule.

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

Project description: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.
