Extended Calix[4]arene-Based Receptors for Molecular Recognition and Sensing
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent advances in the area of recognition and sensing have shown that artificial receptors derived from extended calix[4]arenes bearing multiple π-conjugated fluorophoric or chromophoric systems have found useful to enhance binding affinity, selectivity and sensitivity for recognition and sensing of a targeted ion or molecule. A comprehensive review of various π-conjugation-extended calyx[4]arene-based receptors with the highlight on the design and binding characterization for recognition and sensing is presented.

Design and synthesis of chiral macrocycles as receptors for enantioselective molecular recognition and as catalysts for asymmetric reactions
The design and the synthesis of chiral macrocycles acting as enantioselective receptors is of great interest in the field of enzyme mimicking enantioselective catalysis as well as in that of racemic resolution and of chiral sensing. Recently particular attention has been devoted to neutral ditopic receptors able to simultaneously bind chiral ammonium cations and their counteranions. In this wor...
متن کاملIon pair-induced conformational motion in calix[4]arene-strapped calix[4]pyrroles.
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...

Several lower-rim perfluoroalkylated (fluorous) calix[4]arenes have been synthesized by O-alkylation of the parent calix[4]arene. The compounds are formed in the cone conformation. They are soluble in several fluorous solvents and show promise for use in sensing, selective extractions and other applications.
متن کاملSurface Plasmon Spectroscopic Detection of Saxitoxin
For the surface-optoelectronic study of Saxitoxin sensing, we fabricated selfassembled calix[4]arene derivative monolayers as the recognition-functional interfaces on a gold surface. An interaction study between Saxitoxin and calix[4]arene derivative monolayers were performed using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy. Among three calix[4]arene derivatives, calix[4]arene crown ether SAM...
متن کاملMonotopic and heteroditopic calix[4]arene receptors as hosts for pyridinium and viologen ion pairs: a solution and solid-state study.
The binding efficiency of a series of monotopic () and heteroditopic () calix[4]arene-based receptors has been evaluated in chloroform solution toward N-methylpyridinium ion pairs using NMR and UV/vis spectroscopic techniques. These experiments provided evidence that, due to a positive cooperative effect, the presence of a phenylurea H-bond donor group on the upper rim of the calix[4]arene macr...
