Highly charged supramolecular oligomers based on the dimerization of corannulene tetraanion.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The supramolecular dimerization of tetraanionic corannulene is utilized as a self-assembly motif for the construction of highly charged, buckybowl-based supramolecular oligomers. Oligomers of up to 7 units (3900 g mol(-1)) of reduced dicorannulenic monomers are identified and characterized by various NMR techniques, and the reversibility of their assembly is established through the concentration dependence of their molecular weight and the effect of monofunctional chain-stoppers.

G-protein Coupled Receptor Dimerization
A growing body of evidence suggests that GPCRs exist and function as dimers or higher oligomers. The evidence for GPCR dimerization comes from biochemical, biophysical and functional studies. In addition, researchers have shown the occurrence of heterodimerization between different members of the GPCR family. Two receptors can interact with each other to make a dimer through their extracellular...
متن کاملSupramolecular capsules from bilayer membrane scission driven by corannulene.
Self-assembly of polyaromatic systems has proved to be a powerful technique to construct nanoscale optoelectronic materials. However, attempts to develop self-assembled nanomaterials guided by pristine polyaromatic molecules have been limited. Here the construction of photoactive nanocapsules through the scission of an aromatic bilayer membrane driven by curved corannulene intercalation is repo...
متن کاملComputational characterization and modeling of buckyball tweezers: density functional study of concave-convex pi...pi interactions.
The geometries and binding energies of a recent buckyball tweezers (C(60)H(28)) and its supramolecular complexes are investigated using recently developed density functionals (M06-L and M06-2X) that include an accurate treatment of medium-range correlation energy. The pincer part of the tweezers, corannulene, has a strong attractive interaction with C(60). However, due to the entropy penalty, t...
متن کاملSynthesis of Five‐Porphyrin Nanorings by Using Ferrocene and Corannulene Templates
The smallest and most strained member of a family of π-conjugated cyclic porphyrin oligomers was synthesized by using pentapyridyl templates based on ferrocene and corannulene. Both templates are effective for directing the synthesis of the butadiyne-linked cyclic pentamer, despite the fact that the radii of their N5 donor sets are too small by 0.5 Å and 0.9 Å, respectively (from DFT calculatio...
متن کاملNanometer patterning of water by tetraanionic ferrocyanide stabilized in aqueous nanodrops.
Formation of the small, highly charged tetraanion ferrocyanide, Fe(CN)64-, stabilized in aqueous nanodrops is reported. Ion-water interactions inside these nanodrops are probed using blackbody infrared radiative dissociation, infrared photodissociation (IRPD) spectroscopy, and molecular modeling in order to determine how water molecules stabilize this highly charged anion and the extent to whic...
