Tripodal Receptors for Cation and Anion Sensors
نویسندگان
چکیده
This review discusses different types of artificial tripodal receptors for the selective recognition and sensing of cations and anions. Examples on the relationship between structure and selectivity towards cations and anions are described. Furthermore, their applications as potentiometric ion sensing are emphasised, along with their potential applications in optical sensors or optodes.

Squaramide-based tripodal receptors for selective recognition of sulfate anion.
Squaramide-based tripodal anion receptors have been prepared and their anion binding properties with various inorganic anions were investigated. Receptor formed a dimeric complex in solid state and a 1 : 1 complex in solution with SO(4)(2-). All receptors could selectively encapsulate SO(4)(2-)via hydrogen bonds over other examined anions.
متن کاملAnion complexation with cyanobenzoyl substituted first and second generation tripodal amide receptors: crystal structure and solution studies.
Anion complexation properties of two new tripodal amide receptors have been extensively studied here. Two tripodal receptors have been synthesized from the reaction of cyanobenzoyl acid chloride with two tri-amine building blocks such as (i) tris(2-aminoethyl)amine and (ii) tris(2-(4-aminophenoxy)ethyl)amine, which resulted in the first (L1) and second (L2) generation tripodal amides respective...
متن کاملLithium cation enhances anion binding in a tripodal phosphine oxide-based ditopic receptor.
A tripodal ditopic receptor presents H-bond donors and a phosphine oxide to potential guests. In the idealized binding conformation, an endohedral P=O functionality provides enhanced halide binding in the presence of lithium with the greatest ΔΔG° observed for bromide, while minimal changes in K(a) are observed in the presence of sodium.
متن کاملSelective recognition of sulfate ions by tripodal cyclic peptides functionalised with (thio)urea binding sites.
A tripodal urea and tripodal thiourea with the same cyclic peptide core have been synthesised and their anion binding ability investigated. In CDCl(3), the tripodal urea self-associates whereas the thiourea does not. Neither compound shows self-association in the more polar 10% v/v DMSO-d(6)/CDCl(3). Both compounds bind strongly and selectively to sulfate ions in CDCl(3) and 10% v/v DMSO-d(6)/C...
متن کاملRedox-driven sulfate ion transfer between two tripodal tris(urea) receptors.
Two anion receptors with the same tripodal scaffold but different signaling groups are employed to control intermolecular anion transfer via an electrochemical stimulus, which is detected by the change of the fluorescence intensity before and after electrochemical oxidation of the ferrocenyl units.
