Discrete, multi-component complexes with cucurbit[8]uril in the gas-phase.

چکیده
The formation of modular, multi-component, host-guest complexes stable both in water and in the gas-phase is described; by modulating the stoichiometry of the different subunits in aqueous solution, quantitative self-assembly of the predicted and desired architecture is achieved, even allowing for ABA triblock copolymer assemblies stable in the gas-phase.

Probing the stability of multicomponent self-assembled architectures based on cucurbit[8]uril in the gas phase.
Aqueous supramolecular chemistry and highly controlled self-assembly of multi-component architectures are novel tools for investigating and answering questions with different biological implications. Among other self-assembly motifs the barrel-shaped host molecule cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) is of particular interest due to its capability of incorporating two guest molecules simultaneously in its h...
متن کاملAggregates of cucurbituril complexes in the gas phase.
The self-organization of cucurbit[n]uril (n = 7 and 8, CBs) complexes was probed by electrospray mass spectrometry. The self-association of CB complexes is a general phenomenon but shows some dependence on the absence, presence, and type of included guest molecules.
متن کاملOne ring to bind them all: shape-selective complexation of phenylenediamine isomers with cucurbit[6]uril in the gas phase.
We examined complexes between cucurbit[6]uril and each of ortho-, meta-, and para-phenylenediamine using computational methods, Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry, and ion mobility spectrometry. These fundamental gas phase studies show that the lowest energy binding sites for ortho- and meta-phenylenediamine are on the exterior of cucurbit[6]uril, whereas para-phenylene...
متن کاملPhotoresponsive Supramolecular Complexes as Efficient DNA Regulator
Two supramolecular complexes of trans-1⊂CB[8] and trans-2⊂CB[8] were successfully achieved by the controlled selective complexation process of cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) with hetero-guest pair containing azobenzene and bispyridinium moieties in aqueous solution, exhibiting the reversibly light-driven movements of CB[8] upon the photocontrollable isomerization of azophenyl axle components. Signific...
متن کاملAssessment of Cooperativity in Ternary Peptide‐Cucurbit[8]uril Complexes
Evaluating cooperativity for cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8])-mediated ternary complexation is required for understanding and advancing designs of such ternary self-assembled systems. A key issue is to dissect the contributions of the binding steps of the first and second guest molecules to the overall ternary complex formation energy. This is addressed by performing concentration-dependent titrations b...
