چکیده

Large fluorescent molecules have been encapsulated in pyrogallol[4]arene nano-capsules, thus exploring the limits of molecular encapsulation; the orientation of these probe molecules within these nano-capsules has been examined with additional computational approaches in one case.

Self-recognition, structure, stability, and guest affinity of pyrogallol[4]arene and resorcin[4]arene capsules in solution.

In the present study, we used diffusion NMR to probe the structures and characteristics of the products obtained from the self-assembly of resorcin[4]arenes 1a and 1b and pyrogallol[4]arenes 2a and 2b in CDCl(3) solutions. It was found that all four molecules self-assemble into hexameric capsules. The hexameric capsules of pyrogallol[4]arenes 2a and 2b were found to be more stable than the caps...

Hydrogen-Bonded Hexameric Capsules of Resorcin[4]arene, Pyrogallol[4]arene and Octahydroxypyridine[4]arene are Abundant Structures in Organic Solvents: A View from Diffusion NMR

Hydrogen-bond molecular capsules have attracted much interest in the last decade. In the present paper, we wish to describe new insights obtained from diffusion NMR when studying the self-assembly of resorcin[4]arenes (2), pyrogallol[4]arenes (3) and octahydroxypyridine[4]arenes (4) in solution. These diffusion NMR studies demonstrate that compounds 2 and 3 self-assemble spontaneously into hexa...

Synthesis and structural characterisation of lower rim halogenated pyrogallol[4]arenes: bi-layers and hexameric nano-capsules.

Two lower rim halogenated pyrogallol[4]arenes have been synthesised and structurally characterised as either bi-layer or hexameric nano-capsule motifs depending upon chain length and functionalisation.

Substrate selective amide coupling driven by encapsulation of a coupling agent within a self-assembled hexameric capsule.

Encapsulation of a cationic carbodiimide condensing agent within a self-assembled hexameric capsule made of resorcin[4]arene units provides a nano-environment that efficiently steers the substrate selectivity in the amide synthesis reaction between carboxylic acids and primary amines. While in solution pairs of acids react similarly with a given amine, in the presence of the capsule the formati...

Supramolecular blueprint approach to metal-coordinated capsules.

An important problem in designing any large network is the assembly of systems that are resilient to change. From a chemical point of view, an analogy can be used where one requires supramolecular assemblies to maintain their dimensionality combined with limited structural perturbation in response to variation in its intermolecular framework. The identification of hydrogen-bonded framework patt...
