Formation of a series of stable pillar[5]arene-based pseudo[1]-rotaxanes and their [1]rotaxanes in the crystal state.

ABSTRACT: A series of mono-amide-functionalized pillar[5]arenes with different lengths of N-?-aminoalkyl groups as the side chain on the rim were designed and synthesized, which all formed pseudo[1]rotaxanes in the crystal state. And these pseudo[1]rotaxanes could be transformed into [1]rotaxanes or open forms in the crystal state. In addition, they were also studied in solution by (1)H NMR spectroscopy.

Synthesis of diamido-bridged bis-pillar[5]arenes and tris-pillar[5]arenes for construction of unique [1]rotaxanes and bis-[1]rotaxanes.

Project description:The pillar[5]arene mono- and di(oxyalkoxy)benzoic acids were successfully prepared in high yields by sequential alkylation of ?-bromoalkoxy-substituted pillar[5]arenes with methyl or ethyl p-hydroxybenzoate followed by a hydrolytic reaction under basic conditions. Under catalysis of HOBt/EDCl, the amidation reaction of pillar[5]arene mono(oxybutoxy)benzoic acid with monoamido-functionalized pillar[5]arenes afforded diamido-bridged bis-pillar[5]arenes. 1H NMR and 2D NOESY spectra clearly indicated that [1]rotaxanes were formed by insertion of longer diaminoalkylene unit into the cavity of one pillar[5]arene with another pillar[5]arene acting as a stopper. The similar catalysed amidation reaction of pillar[5]arene di(oxybutoxy)benzoic acid with monoamido-functionalized pillar[5]arenes resulted in the diamido-bridged tris-pillar[5]arenes, which successfully form the unique bis-[1]rotaxanes bearing longer than diaminopropylene diamido bridges.

Recognition Selectivities of Lasso-Type Pseudo[1]rotaxane Based on a Mono-Ester-Functionalized Pillar[5]arene.

Project description:Two types of mono-ester-functionalized pillar[5]arenes, P1 and P2, bearing different side-chain groups, were synthesized. Their host-guest complexation and self-inclusion properties were studied by 1H NMR and 2D nuclear overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) NMR measurements. The results showed that the substituents on their phenolic units have a great influence on the self-assembly of both pillar[5]arenes, although they both could form stable pseudo[1]rotaxanes at room temperature. When eight bulky 4-brombutyloxy groups were capped on the cavity, instead of methoxy groups, pseudo[1]rotaxane P1 became less stable and its locked ester group in the inner space of cavity was not as deep as P2, leading to distinctly different host-guest properties between P1 and P2 with 1,6-dibromohexane. Moreover, pillar[5]arene P1 displayed effective molecular recognition toward 1,6-dichlorohexane and 1,2-bromoethane among the guest dihalides. In addition, the self-complex models and stabilities between P1 and P2 were also studied by computational modeling and experimental calculations.

Pillar[5]arene Based [1]rotaxane Systems With Redox-Responsive Host-Guest Property: Design, Synthesis and the Key Role of Chain Length.

Project description:Pillar[n]arenes are a new type of macrocyclic compounds, which were first reported in 2008 by Ogoshi. They not only have cylindrical, symmetrical, and rigid structures, but also have many advantages, including easy functionalization and rich host-guest properties. On the other hand, mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs) exist extensively in nature which have been artificially synthesized and widely applied in the fields of nanotechnology and biology. Although pillar[5]arene-based MIMs have been investigated much over recent years, pillar[5]arene-based [1]rotaxanes are very limited. In this report, we synthesized a series of amide-linked pillar[5]arene-based [1]rotaxanes with ferrocene unit as the stopper. Under the catalysis of HOBT/EDCL, the mono-amido-functionalized pillar[5]arenes were amidated with ferrocene carboxylic acid to constructed ferrocene-based [1]rotaxanes, respectively. The structure of the [1]rotaxanes were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, 2D NMR, mass spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray structural determination. In the experiment, the monofunctionalized pillar[5]arene was synthesized with a self-inclusion property, which allows for forming a pseudo-rotaxane. The key role is the length of the imine chain in this process. The formation of a rotaxane was realized through amidation of ferrocene dicarboxylic acid, which acted as a plug. In addition, due to the ferrocene units, the pillar[5]arene-based [1]rotaxanes perform electrochemically reversible property. Based on this nature, we hope these pillar[5]arene-based [1]rotaxanes can be applied in battery devices in the future.

Diversity Oriented Preparation of Pillar[5]arene-Containing [2]Rotaxanes by a Stopper Exchange Strategy.

Project description:Rotaxane building blocks bearing 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl) benzenesulfonate (BTBS) stoppers have been efficiently prepared from a pillar[5]arene derivative, 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl) benzenesulfonyl chloride (BTBSCl) and different diols, namely 1,10-decanediol and 1,12-dodecanediol. The BTBS moieties of these compounds are good leaving groups and stopper exchange reactions could be achieved by treatment with different nucleophiles thus affording rotaxanes with ester, thioether or ether stoppers.

Spacer Length-Independent Shuttling of the Pillar[5]arene Ring in Neutral [2]Rotaxanes.

Project description:For a series of neutral [2]rotaxanes consisting of a pillar[5]arene ring and axles possessing two stations separated by flexible spacers of different lengths, the free energies of activation for the ring shuttling between the stations were found to be independent of the spacer length. The constitution of the spacer affects the activation energies: replacement of CH2 groups by repulsive oxygen atoms in the axle increases the barrier. The explanation for the observed length-independence lies in the presence of a barrier for re-forming the stable co-conformation, which makes the ring travel back and forth along the thread in an intermediate state.

Styrene Purification by Guest-Induced Restructuring of Pillar[6]arene.

Project description:The separation of styrene (St) and ethylbenzene (EB) mixtures is important in the chemical industry. Here, we explore the St and EB adsorption selectivity of two pillar-shaped macrocyclic pillar[n]arenes (EtP5 and EtP6; n = 5 and 6). Both crystalline and amorphous EtP6 can capture St from a St-EB mixture with remarkably high selectivity. We show that EtP6 can be used to separate St from a 50:50 v/v St:EB mixture, yielding in a single adsorption cycle St with a purity of >99%. Single-crystal structures, powder X-ray diffraction patterns, and molecular simulations all suggest that this selectivity is due to a guest-induced structural change in EtP6 rather than a simple cavity/pore size effect. This restructuring means that the material "self-heals" upon each recrystallization, and St separation can be carried out over multiple cycles with no loss of performance.

Pillar[5]arene-Decorated Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes.

Project description:Control of single-walled carbon nanotube dispersion properties is of substantial interest to the scientific community. In this work, we sought to investigate the effect of a macrocycle, pillar[5]arene, on the dispersion properties of a polymer-nanotube complex. Pillar[5]arenes are a class of electron-rich macrocyclic hosts capable of forming inclusion complexes with electron-poor guests, such as alkyl nitriles. A hydroxyl-functionalized pillar[5]arene derivative was coupled to the alkyl bromide side chains of a polyfluorene, which was then used to coat the surface of single-walled carbon nanotubes. Noncovalent functionalization of carbon nanotubes with the macrocycle-containing conjugated polymer significantly enhanced nanotube solubility, resulting in dark and concentrated nanotube dispersions (600 ?g mL<sup>-1</sup>), as evidenced by UV-vis-NIR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. Differentiation of semiconducting and metallic single-walled carbon nanotube species was analyzed by a combination of UV-vis-NIR, Raman, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Raman spectroscopy confirmed that the concentrated nanotube dispersion produced by the macrocycle-containing polymer was due to well-exfoliated nanotubes, rather than bundle formation. The polymer-nanotube dispersion was investigated using <sup>1</sup>H NMR spectroscopy, and it was found that host-guest chemistry between pillar[5]arene and 1,6-dicyanohexane occurred in the presence of the polymer-nanotube complex. Utilizing the host-guest capability of pillar[5]arene, the polymer-nanotube complex was incorporated into a supramolecular organogel.

?-D-Galactose-Functionalized Pillar[5]arene With Interesting Planar-Chirality for Constructing Chiral Nanoparticles.

Project description:Planar-chiral pillar[5]arenes bearing ?-D-galactose substituents on both rims have been successfully synthesized and effectively separated by silica gel chromatography with a high yield. The obtained (S p )- and (R p )-?-D-galactose functionalized pillar[5]arenes [(S p-D )-GP5 and (R p-D )-GP5] exhibit the S p and R p planar chirality. Furthermore, (S p-D )-GP5 and (R p-D )-GP5 can not racemize according to dynamic 1H NMR and CD spectra. Notably, GP5 is able to capture a guest molecule (DNS-CPT) to form a host-guest supramolecular amphiphile, which can further self-assemble into chiral nanoparticles with the S p and R p planar chirality of (S p-D )-GP5 and (R p-D )-GP5 still being retained, suggesting GP5 could be as reliable chiral sources to transfer the S p and R p planar chirality.

Molecular weight fractionation by confinement of polymer in one-dimensional pillar[5]arene channels.

Project description:Confinement of polymers in nano-spaces can induce unique molecular dynamics and properties. Here we show molecular weight fractionation by the confinement of single polymer chains of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) in the one-dimensional (1D) channels of crystalline pillar[5]arene. Pillar[5]arene crystals are activated by heating under reduced pressure. The activated crystals are immersed in melted PEO, causing the crystals to selectively take up PEO with high mass fraction. The high mass fractionation is caused by the greater number of attractive CH/? interactions between PEO C-H groups and the ?-electron-rich 1D channel of the pillar[5]arene with increasing PEO chain length. The molecular motion of the confined PEO (PEO chain thickness of ~3.7?Å) in the 1D channel of pillar[5]arenes (diameter of ~4.7?Å) is highly restricted compared with that of neat PEO.
