Multiple threading of a triple-calix[6]arene host.

ABSTRACT: The synthesis of the triple-calix[6]arene derivative 6 in which three calix[6]arene macrocycles are linked to a central 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene moiety is reported. Derivative 6 is able to give multiple-threading processes in the presence of dialkylammonium axles. The formation of pseudo[2]rotaxane, pseudo[3]rotaxane, and pseudo[4]rotaxane by threading one, two, and three, respectively, calix-wheels of 6 has been studied by 1D and 2D NMR, DOSY, and ESI-FT-ICR MS/MS experiments. The use of a directional alkylbenzylammonium axle led to the stereoselective formation of endo-alkyl pseudo[n]rotaxane stereoisomers.

Study on the Influence of Chirality in the Threading of Calix[6]arene Hosts with Dialkylammonium Axles.

Project description:: The influence of chirality in calixarene threading has been studied by exploiting the "superweak anion approach". In particular, the formation of chiral pseudo[2]rotaxanes bearing a classical stereogenic center in their axle and/or wheel components has been considered. Two kind of pseudo[2]rotaxane stereoadducts, the "endo-chiral" and "exo-chiral" ones, having the stereogenic center of a cationic axle inside or outside, respectively, the calix-cavity of a chiral calixarene were preferentially formed with specifically designed chiral axles by a fine exploitation of the so-called "endo-alkyl rule" and a newly defined "endo-?-methyl-benzyl rule" (threading of a hexaalkoxycalix[6]arene with a directional (?-methyl-benzyl)benzylammonium axle occurs with an endo-?-methyl-benzyl preference). The obtained pseudorotaxanes were studied in solution by 1D and 2D NMR, and in the gas-phase by means of the enantiomer-labeled (EL) mass spectrometry method, by combining enantiopure hosts with pseudoracemates of one deuterated and one unlabeled chiral axle enantiomer. In both instances, there was not a clear enantiodiscrimination in the threading process with the studied host/guest systems. Possible rationales are given to explain the scarce reciprocal influence between the guest and host chiral centers.

Influence of exo-Adamantyl Groups and endo-OH Functions on the Threading of Calix[6]arene Macrocycle.

Project description:Calix[6]arenes bearing adamantyl groups at the exo-rim form pseudorotaxanes with dialkylammonium axles paired to the weakly coordinating [B(ArF)4]- anion. The exo-adamantyl groups give rise to a more efficient threading with respect to the exo-tert-butyl ones, leading to apparent association constants more than one order of magnitude higher. This improved stability has been ascribed to the more favorable van der Waals interactions of exo-adamantyls versus exo-tert-butyls with the cationic axle. Calix[6]arenes bearing endo-OH functions give rise to a less efficient threading with respect to the endo-OR ones, in line with what was known from the complexation of alkali metal cations.

Cation-induced pesticide binding and release by a functionalized calix[4]arene molecular host.

Project description:Ion-controlled switchable progress is very important in many biological behaviors. Here, we reported K(+)-controlled switch, this switch system exhibited excellent carbaryl (G) binding/release by fluorescent (FL), ultraviolet-visible (UV) spectrums and (1)H NMR spectroscopy. More importantly, the K(+)-controlled G binding/release switch based on C4C5 not only in the solution, but also on the surface, promising for the application for the pesticide controlled release.

Ion pair-induced conformational motion in calix[4]arene-strapped calix[4]pyrroles.

Project description:In order to understand the still-poorly understood interplay between calix[4]arene conformations and cation and anion recognition in multicomponent systems, the ion pair receptors 1 and 2 were synthesized. In solution and in the solid state, the calix[4]arene subunit of receptor 1 adopts a cone conformation, while that of 2 interconverts between the cone and the partial cone conformation. These geometric features differ from previous systems where the calix[4]arene moiety was locked in the 1,3-alternate conformation. A combination of 1H NMR spectroscopic analyses and single crystal X-ray diffraction studies reveal that receptor 1 binds the fluoride and the chloride anion via significantly different binding modes, displaying, for instance, 1 : 1 and 2 : 3 binding stoichiometries with CsF and CsCl, respectively. In the case of 2, the conformation of the calix[4]arene constituent of 2 is highly dependent on the size and quantity of anions present. For example, upon treatment of 2 with the fluoride anion (as both the TBA+ and Cs+ salts), the calix[4]arene unit coexists as cone and partial cone conformers that are inter-convertible. In the presence of excess CsF, the aromatic rings of the calix[4]arene subunit becomes locked in the pinched cone conformation with the result that an ion pair-mediated coordination polymer is formed. In the presence of excess CsCl, the calix[4]arene unit of 2 adopts only the partial cone conformation stabilized by aryl CH-anion hydrogen bonding interactions. The present systems constitute a rare set of related receptors wherein the effects of conformational changes are so tightly coupled with ion recognition.

Calix[6]arene-based atropoisomeric pseudo[2]rotaxanes.

Project description:Some examples of atropoisomeric pseudorotaxanes in which the isomerism arises by the different conformations adopted by the wheel are reported here. Upon threading hexahexyloxycalix[6]arene 1 with ammonium axles 2+ or 3+ , bearing biphenyl or trifluoromethylbenzyl moieties, respectively, two atropoisomeric pseudorotaxanes were formed in which the calix[6]-wheel 1 adopts the 1,2,3-alternate and cone conformations. The interconversion between them cannot be obtained by simple rotation around the ArCH2Ar bonds of the calixarene wheel, which is blocked by the presence of the axle inside its cavity. Therefore, it can only be obtained through a mechanism of de-threading/re-threading of the axle. In all the examined cases, the 1,2,3-alternate and cone atropoisomers are, respectively, the kinetic and the thermodynamic ones.

5,17-Diformyl-25,26,27,28-tetra-propoxy-calix[4]arene.

Project description:The title compound, C42H48O6, was obtained via formyl-ation of 25,26,27,28-tetra-propoxycalix[4]arene with dichloro-methyl methyl ether and tin tetra-chloride. It adopts a pinched cone conformation, which leads to an open cavity. The two opposite aromatic rings bearing formyl groups are almost parallel, making a dihedral angle of 29.1?(2)°. The other pair of opposite rings are close to being perpendicular, making a dihedral angle of 73.6?(1)°. Adjacent rings are almost perpendicular, making dihedral angles of 78.8?(2), 81.6?(1), 78.2?(1) and 74.7?(1)°.

Crystal structure of a mono-bridged calix[4]arene.

Project description:The title compound, 5(2)-[(5-bromo-pent-yl)-oxy]-1(2),1(14),3(5),5(5)-tetra-tert-butyl-1(7),1(8),1(9),1(10)-tetra-hydro-1(6) H,1(16) H-1(4,12)-dibenzo[b,e][1,7]dioxa-cyclo-dodecina-3,5(1,3)-dibenzena-cyclo-hexa-phan-3(2)-ol, C54H73BrO4, was synthesized from the reaction of tert-butyl-calix[4]arene with 1,5-di-bromo-pentane using K2CO3 in CH3CN. The structure consists of a calixarene unit with a five-carbon bridge connecting two proximal phenolic O atoms, and with a bromo-pent-oxy chain on one of the remaining phenolic O atoms. The calixarene unit was found to have a flattened cone conformation with no solvent (or other guest) mol-ecule observed in the cavity. Two of the opposite phenyl rings lean outwards with fold angles of 136.2 (1) and 133.0 (1)° between the rings and the plane of the bridging methyl-ene C atoms, while the other two opposite rings form fold angles of 83.27 (9) and 105.46 (9)°. There is considerable disorder in this mol-ecule. One of the tert-butyl groups is disordered over two conformations with occupancies of 0.527 (5) and 0.473 (5). The bromo-pent-oxy chain is disordered over three configurations with occupancies of 0.418, 0.332 and 0.250. The five-carbon bridge connecting two proximal phenolic O atoms is disordered over two conformations with occupancies of 0.537 (7) and 0.463 (7).

Structural analysis of a calix[4]arene-based Platonic Micelle.

Project description:We have recently introduced the concept of "Platonic micelles", the preference of spherical micelles to specific aggregation numbers mostly coinciding with the number of faces of platonic solids. This effect was observed on bulky, mostly calix[4]arene-based surfactant systems with small aggregation numbers. The preferred aggregation numbers result in better sphere coverage, highliting the packing and the "protection" of hydrophobic cores from the aqueous solvent as the most important factor for this preference. In the present study we further explore the interactions that drive the packing of the highly charged PACaL3 surfactant into highly symmetrical hexameric micelles. We performed a series of molecular dynamics simulations that yielded a large set of structures and an ensemble in good agreement with the experimental Small Angle X-ray Scattering data was selected. The geometry and the rigidity of the calix[4]arene group with proper tail length and headgroup volume are the driving forces for the high symmetry and monodispersity of the micelle. The charge of the headgroups is mainly responsible for inhibiting the formation of higher order structures. Sodium, shown to be important for the stability of the micelle, is not directly interacting with the micelle implying that the calix[4]arene ring is a C2? symmetry conformation.

25,26,27,28-Tetra-kis(3-bromo-benzyl-oxy)calix[4]arene.

Project description:In the title compound, C(56)H(44)Br(4)O(4), the calix[4]arene unit displays the 1,2-alternate conformation with crystallograpically imposed inversion symmetry. The four phen-oxy rings of the calix[4]arene unit are twisted about the mean plane defined by the four methyl-ene C atoms bridging the benzene rings, with dihedral angles of 46.73?(6) and 66.11?(5)°. The dihedral angle between adjacent phen-oxy rings is 74.75?(7)°. The two pendant bromo-phenyl rings on the same side of the calix[4]arene unit are nearly perpendicular to each other, with a dihedral angle of 72.85?(10)° due to an intra-molecular C-H?? inter-action. In the crystal, a Br?Br contact of 3.6350?(5)?Å, an inter-molecular C-H?Br hydrogen bond and an inter-molecular C-H?? inter-action are observed.

Attempted synthesis of a meta-metalated calix[4]arene.

Project description:An evidence for the formation of a rare meta-metalated inherently chiral calix[4]arene is described. Our strategy involved using a mesoionic carbene to direct C-H activation, but proved to form an unexpectedly unstable intermediate that was identified through high-resolution mass spectrometry. On route to our target, a new optimized method to mononitrocalix[4]arenes was developed, including optimized and high yielding transformations to azide and 1,2,3-triazole derivatives which may have application in other areas of research.
