چکیده

The ideas fundamental to the design of cation complexing host molecules can also be applied in the construction of molecular hosts for anions. Following the basic concept the macrotricyclic ammonium hosts la and j& were prepared. They were shown to bind anions by encapsulation into their molecular cavities in aqueous solution. This inclusion process causes guest discrimination according to integral properties like charge, hydrophobicity and size. Besides this equilibrium selectivity differential rate effects (kinetic selectivity) are observed favouring reactions, which run through delocalized anionic transition states. In order to improve the selectivity, accessability and applicability the concept of linearly connected locular molecular hosts was developed. A selectivity advantage exclusively attributable to this design can be demonstrated even with the simplest member of the series, the ditopic host 2. A better definition of orientational and distance relations than attainable in the anion inclusion hosts can be expected from bicyclic guanidinium host structures (Fig. 3 ) . The binding mode of oxoanionic guests to symmetrical molecular hosts of this type resembles the interaction pattern found in natural receptors. The synthesis of chiral guanidines via three different approaches opens the way to predetermined enantioselective anion recognition. An initial step in this direction is achieved by linear combination of two guanidinium units to produce the ditopic host 29.

Density functional theory dispersion corrected (DFT-D3)calculations and molecular dynamic (MD) simulation were applied to investigate the sensing ability of four types of receptors (RCs) composed of the ortho-phenylenediamine based bis-ureas for selective complexation with the anions such as Cl–, Br–, OAC–, PhCO2–, H2PO4– and HSO4– in the gas phase and DMSO. On the basis of the data obtained fr...

PVC-Based Cerium Phosphate Membrane Exhibiting Selectivity for Molybdate Anions

A PVC-based membrane containing cerium phosphate was developed. Unlike the cerium phosphate itself that acts as a cation exchanger, the membrane exhibited anion-exchange properties. Therefore, the utility of this compound as a sensory element for detection of molybdate ions was pursued. The response of molybdate selective electrode based on this membrane was perfectly linear in the concentr...

High Affinity Carboxylate Binding Using Neutral Urea-Based Receptors with Internal Lewis Acid Coordination.

Uncharged receptors for anions and cations have many potential applications ranging from membrane transport carriers for ion-selective electrodes to reaction catalysts.1 As a consequence, there is a need to design and synthesize neutral receptors with high binding affinities and/ or high binding selectivities. Unlike cation receptors, there are essentially no examples of biotic, low molecular w...

Conformation-Selective Resonant Photoelectron Spectroscopy via Dipole-Bound States of Cold Anions.

Molecular conformation is important in chemistry and biochemistry. Conformers connected by low energy barriers can only be observed at low temperatures and are difficult to be separated. Here we report a new method to obtain conformation-selective spectroscopic information about dipolar molecular radicals via dipole-bound excited states of the corresponding anions cooled in a cryogenic ion trap...
