Expected and unexpected photoreactions of 9-(10-)substituted anthracene derivatives in cucurbit[n]uril hosts.

ABSTRACT: By arranging substrates in a "reaction ready" state through noncovalent interactions, supramolecular nanoreactors/catalysts show high selectivity and/or rate acceleration features. Herein, we report the host-guest complexation of 9-(10-)substituted anthracene derivatives (G1-G3) with cucurbit[n]uril (CB[n], n = 8, 10), and the photoreactions of these derivatives in the presence of CB[n] hosts. Both CB[10] and CB[8] showed no obvious effects on the photoreaction of 9,10-disubstituted derivative G1. For G2 and G3, CB[10] operated as either a nanoreactor or catalyst (10%) for the photodimerization of two compounds with high selectivity and high yield. However, although CB[8] formed a 1 : 2 complex with G2, as also observed with CB[10], the photosolvolysis product (9-anthracenemethanol) was obtained quantitatively after photoirradiation of the CB[8]·2G2 complex. This unexpected photosolvolysis was rationalized by a plausible catalytic cycle in which anthracene acts as a photoremovable protecting group (PPG) and the carbonium ion intermediate is stabilized by CB[8].

Cucurbit[10]uril.

Project description:Melamine diamine 1 is able to displace CB[5] from the CB[10].CB[5] complex resulting in CB[10].12 and precipitated CB[5].1. We were able to isolate free CB[10] by treatment of CB[10].1 with acetic anhydride followed by washing with MeOH, DMSO, and water. The spacious cavity of CB[10] is able to complex large guests, including a cationic calix[4]arene derivative in its 1,3-alternate form (CB[10].1,3-alt-3). The addition of adamantane carboxylic acid (4) to CB[10].3 triggers a conformational change during the formation of termolecular complex CB[10].cone-3.4.

Interaction of Phenyl-Substituted Diazaperylenium with Cucurbit[n]uril: Complex versus Supramolecular Polymer.

Project description:A phenyl-substituted diazaperylenediium dication (DAP) was synthesized that shows concentration-dependent aggregation in water. The host-guest complexation of DAP was studied with the macrocyclic host cucurbit[n]uril (n = 7, 8) in water. With CB[7], it forms a 1:2 complex by placing two aryl substituents inside the CB[7]; whereas, with CB[8], a supramolecular polymer is formed. The resulting complex and supramolecular polymer have been characterized by ITC (isothermal titration calorimetry), ESI-MS (electrospray ionization mass spectrometry), 1H NMR (proton nuclear magnetic resonance), 2D NOESY (two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy), and DOSY (diffusion-ordered spectroscopy) spectra.

Cyclohexyl-Substituted Anthracene Derivatives for High Thermal Stability Organic Semiconductors.

Project description:A novel p-type organic semiconductor with high thermal stability is developed by simply incorporating cyclohexyl substituted aryl groups into the 2,6-position of anthracene, namely 2,6-di(4-cyclohexylphenyl)anthracene (DcHPA), and a similar compound with linear alkyl chain, 2,6-di(4-n-hexylphenyl)anthracene (DnHPA), is also studied for comparison. DcHPA shows sublimation temperature around 360°C, and thin film field-effect transistors of DcHPA could maintain half of the original mobility value when heated up to 150°C. Corresponding DnHPA has sublimation temperature of 310°C and the performance of its thin film devices decreases by about 50% when heated to 80°C. The impressing thermal stability of the cyclohexyl substitution compounds might provide guidelines for developing organic electronic materials with high thermal stability.

4-Sulfocalix[4]arene/Cucurbit[7]uril-Based Supramolecular Assemblies through the Outer Surface Interactions of Cucurbit[<i>n</i>]uril.

Project description:Upon mixing of aqueous solutions of the freely soluble building blocks cucurbit[7]uril (Q[7]) and 4-sulfocalix[4]arene (SC[4]A), white microcrystals instantly separate in near-quantitative yield. The driving force for this assembly is suggested to be the outer-surface interaction of the Q[n]. Dynamic light scattering, scanning electron microscopy, and NMR (diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy) analyses have confirmed the supramolecular aggregation of Q[7] and SC[4]A. Titration 1H NMR spectroscopy and isothermal titration calorimetry have shown that the interaction ratio of Q[7] and SC[4]A is close to 3:1. Moreover, the Q[7]/SC[4]A-based supramolecular assembly can accommodate molecules of some volatile compounds or luminescent dyes. Thus, this work offers a simple and highly efficient means of preparing adsorbent or solid fluorescent materials.

Cucurbit[7]uril-based high-performance catalytic microreactors.

Project description:Catalytic microreactors manufactured using microfluidic devices have received significant research interest in recent years. However, little attention has been paid to immobilising metallic nanoparticles (NPs) onto microchannel walls for high efficiency catalytic reactions. We demonstrate a facile preparation of cucurbit[7]uril-based catalytic microreactors, where metallic NPs are immobilised onto microchannels via supramolecular complexation with methyl viologen@cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]). These microreactors exhibit a remarkable catalytic activity owing to the substantially high surface area to volume ratio of the microchannels and metallic NPs. Superior to most conventional heterogeneous catalytic reactions, separation post reaction and complicated recycling steps of the catalysts are not required. Moreover, CB[7] can complex a variety of metallic NPs to its portal, providing a multifunctional high-performance in situ catalytic platform.

pH-Mediated Single Molecule Conductance of Cucurbit[7]uril.

Project description:Recognition tunneling technique owns the capability for investigating and characterizing molecules at single molecule level. Here, we investigated the conductance value of cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) and melphalan@CB[7] (Mel@CB[7]) complex molecular junctions by using recognition tunneling technique. The conductances of CB[7] and Mel@CB[7] with different pH values were studied in aqueous media as well as organic solvent. Both pH value and guest molecule have an impact on the conductance of CB[7] molecular junction. The conductances of CB[7] and Mel@CB[7] both showed slightly difference on the conductance under different measurement systems. This work extends the molecular conductance measurement to aqueous media and provides new insights of pH-responsive host-guest system for single molecule detection through electrical measurements.

Synthesis and self-assembly processes of monofunctionalized cucurbit[7]uril.

Project description:We present a building-block approach toward functionalized CB[7] derivatives by the condensation of methylene-bridged glycoluril hexamer 1 and glycoluril bis(cyclic ethers) 2 and 12. The CB[7] derivatives Me2CB[7] and CyCB[7] are highly soluble in water (264 mM and 181 mM, respectively). As a result of the high intrinsic solubility of Me2CB[7], it is able to solubilize the insoluble benzimidazole drug albendazole. The reaction of hexamer 1 with glycoluril derivative 12, which bears a primary alkyl chloride group, gives CB[7] derivative 18 in 16% isolated yield. Compound 18 reacts with NaN3 to yield azide-substituted CB[7] 19 in 81% yield, which subsequently undergoes click reaction with propargylammonium chloride (21) to yield CB[7] derivative 20 in 95% yield, which bears a covalently attached triazolyl ammonium group along its equator. The results of NMR spectroscopy ((1)H, variable-temperature, and DOSY) and electrospray mass spectrometry establish that 20 undergoes self-assembly to form a cyclic tetrameric assembly (204) in aqueous solution. CB[7] derivatives bearing reactive functional groups (e.g., N3, Cl) are now available for incorporation into more complex functional systems.

Aniline-containing guests recognized by ?,?',?,?'-tetramethyl-cucurbit[6]uril host.

Project description:The host-guest complexation of symmetrical ?,?',?,?'-tetramethyl-cucurbit[6]uril (TMeQ[6]) and cucurbit[7]uril (Q[7]) with a series of aniline-containing guests has been investigated by various experimental techniques including NMR, ITC, and X-ray crystallography. Experimental results indicate that both TMeQ[6] and Q[7] hosts can encapsulate aniline-containing guests to form stable inclusion complexes. However, the oval cavity of TMeQ[6] is more complementary in size and shape to the aromatic ring of the guests than the spherical cavity of Q[7]. Shielding and deshielding effects of the aromatic ring on guests lead to the remarkable chemical shifts of the TMeQ[6] host protons. The rotational restriction of the guests in the oval cavity of TMeQ[6] results in the large negative values of entropy. The X-ray crystal structure of the 1:1 inclusion complex between TMeQ[6] and N,N'-diethyl-benzene-1,4-diamine unambiguously reveals that the aromatic ring of the guest resides in the oval cavity of TMeQ[6].

Cucurbit[6]uril p-xylylenediammonium diiodide deca-hydrate inclusion complex.

Project description:The title inclusion complex, C(36)H(36)N(24)O(12)·C(8)H(14)N(2) (2+)·2I(-)·10H(2)O, displays a large ellipsoidal deformation of the cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]) skeleton upon complex formation. The benzene ring of the cation is rotationally disordered between two orientations in a ratio of 3:1. The solvent H(2)O mol-ecules form a hydrogen-bonded network by inter-action with the carbonyl groups of CB[6] and the I(-) counterions. The crystal studied exhibited non-merohedral twinning. Both CB[6] and the cation are centrosymmetric.
