Unusual partner radical trimer formation in a host complex of cucurbit[8]uril, ruthenium(II) tris-bipyridine linked phenol and methyl viologen.

چکیده
A stable 1:1:1 inclusion complex of Ru(bpy)(3)-phenol (1), MV(2+) and cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) is formed in aqueous solution. In the presence of triethanolamine (TEOA), a light-induced formation of unusual partner radical trimer 1-(MV(+*))(2)-CB[8] has been observed for the first time.

Enhanced Photocatalytic Reduction of Methyl Viologen by Self-Assembling Ruthenium(II)Poly(Pyridyl) Complexes with L-Lysine Containing Side Chains
New tris(2,2′-bipyridine)-type ruthenium(II) complexes with L-lysine-containing side chains form gels by hierarchical assembly of hydrogen bonded fibers in some organic solvents. These Ru(II) complex aggregates are more efficient photosensitizers for reduction of methyl viologen than Ru(bpy)3 in the presence of triethanolamine, a sacrificial electron donor. The increased rate of reduced viologe...

Employing the strategy of quaternization of the 2,2' N atoms of the conjugated bipyridine ligand 1,4-bis[2-(4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyrid-4-yl)ethenyl]benzene (L), a polypyridyl complex of ruthenium(II) was tethered on the surface of zeolite Y. Electrochemical and spectroscopic properties of the complex suggest that, upon visible photoexcitation of the MLCT band, the electron is localized on the conju...
متن کاملA noncovalently reversible paramagnetic switch in water.
We report an organo-paramagnetic switch consisting of a linked bis(viologen) dication diradical that can be cycled reversibly between diamagnetic and paramagnetic states via noncovalent guest-host chemistry with cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) in room-temperature water. Computations suggest that the nature of the interaction between the viologen cation radical units is that of a pi dimer (pimer). Molec...
متن کاملSupramolecular alignment of gold nanorods via cucurbit[8]uril ternary complex formation.
We have shown, for the first time, that a three component system is capable of aligning gold nanorods (AuNRs) through supramolecular host-guest interactions leading to control over AuNR end-to-end assembly. Viologen end-functionalised AuNRs were prepared that were capable of selectively binding to a cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) macrocyclic host molecule. These end-functionalised AuNRs could particip...
متن کاملControl of the stoichiometry in host-guest complexation by redox chemistry of guests: inclusion of methylviologen in cucurbit[8]uril.
The binding stoichiometry of a host-guest complex can be effectively controlled by the redox chemistry of the guest: a 1:1 inclusion complex of methylviologen dication (MV2+) in cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) converts completely and reversibly to a 2:1 inclusion complex of cation radical (MV+.) in CB[8] upon the reduction of the guest.
