Features of Solution Behavior of Polymer Stars with Arms of Poly-2-alkyl-2-oxazolines Copolymers Grafted to the Upper Rim of Calix[8]arene.

ABSTRACT: Star-shaped polymers with arms of block and gradient copolymers of 2-ethyl- and 2-isopropyl-2-oxazolines grafted to the upper rim of calix[8]arene were synthesized by the "grafting from" method. The ratio of 2-ethyl- and 2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline units was 1:1. Molar masses and hydrodynamic characteristics were measured using molecular hydrodynamics and optics methods in 2-nitropropane. The arms of the synthesized stars were short and the star-shaped macromolecules were characterized by compact dimensions and heightened intramolecular density. The influence of the arm structure on the conformation of star molecules was not observed. At low temperatures, the aqueous solutions of the studied stars were not molecular dispersed but individual molecules prevailed. One phase transition was detected for all solutions. The phase separation temperatures decreased with a growth of the content of more hydrophobic 2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline units. It was shown that the way of arms grafting to the calix[8]arene core affects the behavior of aqueous solutions of star-shaped poly-2-alkyl-2-oxazoline copolymers. In the case of upper rim functionalization, the shape of calix[8]arene resembles a plate. Accordingly, the core is less shielded from the solvent and the phase separation temperatures are lower than those for star-shaped poly-2-alkyl-2-oxazolines with lower rim functionalization of the calix[8]arene.

Amidofluorene-appended lower rim 1,3-diconjugate of calix[4]arene: synthesis, characterization and highly selective sensor for Cu(2.).

Project description:Functionalization of calix[4]arene with amidofluorene moieties at the lower rim led to formation of the 1,3-diconjugate of calix[4]arene L as a novel fluorescent chemosensor for Cu(2+). The receptor molecule L exhibited a pronounced selectivity towards Cu(2+) over other mono and divalent ions. The formation of the complex between L and Cu(2+) was evaluated by absorption, fluorescence and (1)H NMR spectroscopy. The sensor L showed a remarkable color change from colorless to purple and a fluorescence quenching only upon interaction with Cu(2+). The 1:1 stoichiometry of the obtained complex has been determined by Job's plot. The association constant determined by fluorescence titration was found to be 1.8 × 10(6) M(-1). The sensor showed a linear response toward Cu(2+) in the concentration range from 1 to 10 µM with a detection limit of 9.6 × 10(-8) M.

Synthesis of upper rim-double-bridged calix[4]arenes bearing seven membered rings and related compounds.

Project description:Meta/meta- and meta/para-disubstituted organomercury calix[4]arenes in the cone conformation were transformed into corresponding amino derivatives. Acylation and subsequent intramolecular cyclization using the Bischler-Napieralski reaction provided, in the case of the meta/meta-series, double bridged calixarenes possessing seven membered rings on the upper rim. A similar synthetic strategy applied to meta/para-isomers allowed for the isolation of monobridged compounds bearing an additional trifluoroacetamido group located distally to seven-membered rings. Both series represent inherently chiral systems, which were successfully resolved using preparative chiral HPLC. The pure enantiomers exhibited a recognition ability towards selected chiral guest molecules as documented by the 1H NMR titration experiments. The absolute configuration of the phenyl-substituted enantiomer (meta/meta-) was confirmed by single crystal structure determination (X-ray).

Catalytic consequences of open and closed grafted Al(III)-calix[4]arene complexes for hydride and oxo transfer reactions.

Project description:An approach for the control and understanding of supported molecular catalysts is demonstrated with the design and synthesis of open and closed variants of a grafted Lewis acid active site, consisting of Al(III)-calix[4]arene complexes on the surface of silica. The calixarene acts as a molecular template that enforces open and closed resting-state coordination geometries surrounding the metal active sites, due to its lower-rim substituents as well as site isolation by virtue of its steric bulk. These sites are characterized and used to elucidate mechanistic details and connectivity requirements for reactions involving hydride and oxo transfer. The consequence of controlling open versus closed configurations of the grafted Lewis acid site is demonstrated by the complete lack of observed activity of the closed site for Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley (MPV) reduction; whereas, the open variant of this catalyst has an MPV reduction activity that is virtually identical to previously reported soluble molecular Al(III)-calix[4]arene catalysts. In contrast, for olefin epoxidation using tert-butyl-hydroperoxide as oxidant, the open and closed catalysts exhibit similar activity. This observation suggests that for olefin epoxidation catalysis using Lewis acids as catalyst and organic hydroperoxide as oxidant, covalent binding of the hydroperoxide is not required, and instead dative coordination to the Lewis acid center is sufficient for catalytic oxo transfer. This latter result is supported by density functional theory calculations of the transition state for olefin epoxidation catalysis, using molecular analogs of the open and closed catalysts.

The Role of Triazole and Glucose Moieties in Alkali Metal Cation Complexation by Lower-Rim Tertiary-Amide Calix[4]arene Derivatives.

Project description:The binding of alkali metal cations with two tertiary-amide lower-rim calix[4]arenes was studied in methanol, N,N-dimethylformamide, and acetonitrile in order to explore the role of triazole and glucose functionalities in the coordination reactions. The standard thermodynamic complexation parameters were determined microcalorimetrically and spectrophotometrically. On the basis of receptor dissolution enthalpies and the literature data, the enthalpies for transfer of reactants and products between the solvents were calculated. The solvent inclusion within a calixarene hydrophobic basket was explored by means of 1H NMR spectroscopy. Classical molecular dynamics of the calixarene ligands and their complexes were carried out as well. The affinity of receptors for cations in methanol and N,N-dimethylformamide was quite similar, irrespective of whether they contained glucose subunits or not. This indicated that sugar moieties did not participate or influence the cation binding. All studied reactions were enthalpically controlled. The peak affinity of receptors for sodium cation was noticed in all complexation media. The complex stabilities were the highest in acetonitrile, followed by methanol and N,N-dimethylformamide. The solubilities of receptors were greatly affected by the presence of sugar subunits. The medium effect on the affinities of calixarene derivatives towards cations was thoroughly discussed regarding the structural properties and solvation abilities of the investigated solvents.

Enaminone Substituted Resorcin[4]arene-Sealing of an Upper-Rim with a Directional System of Hydrogen-Bonds.

Project description:The paper presents the synthesis of an enaminone resorcin[4]arene via a thermally activated o-quinomethide. The crystal structure indicates that in the solid state all enaminone units participate in a unidirectional seam of 12 intramolecular hydrogen bonds that are formed around the cavity. The molecule exhibits C2 symmetry, with two opposite-laying enaminone units directed inside the cavity ("in"), and the other two units outside the cavity ("out"). In the solution the enaminone resorcin[4]arene exists as a mixture of conformers with distribution controlled by temperature and solvent. The experimental data are compared with the results of theoretical calculations using DFT B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) and fast semi-empirical DFTB/GFN2-xTB method in various solvents.

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.

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

Project description: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.
