Under the direction of intramolecular three-center hydrogen bonding, two cyclotriveratrylene (CTV)-based capsules are assembled quantitatively from C(3)-symmetric CTV precursors by forming three imine bonds from arylamide-derived foldamer segments. (1)H and (13)C NMR and UV/vis experiments reveal that the capsules strongly encapsulate C(60) and C(70) in discrete solvents.

Chiral PdL Capsules from Readily Accessible Tröger's Base Ligands Inducing Circular Dichroism on Fullerenes C and C.
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

Article Synopsis
- - The study focuses on embedding fullerenes into a chiral environment to create unique materials with applications in chiroptical technology and enantioselective catalysts, as well as understanding chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS).
- - Researchers designed a chiral Pd2L4 capsule using a special 'ribbon-shaped' ligand derived from Tröger's base naphthalimide, which offers a compact structure with a significant inner cavity for hosting fullerenes.
- - The binding of fullerenes like C60, C70, and corannulenes in acetonitrile results in measurable changes in their optical properties, demonstrating the induction of circular dichroism (CD) that was confirmed through X-ray
Reversible encapsulation and release of fullerenes using calix[]phenoxazines.

This investigation presents the synthesis of butyl-decorated calix[]phenoxazines of varying sizes by kinetic control and the ring-expansion of calix[3]phenoxazine, which uniquely exhibits distinct binding affinities for fullerenes C and C. Calix[3]phenoxazine demonstrates a higher binding affinity for cationic ammonium, which can be reversibly deprotonated and protonated, enabling the reversible release and reloading of fullerenes. This system holds potential for applications in fullerene extraction and separation.

Reducing the interfacial recombination and improving the charge transfer capability of charge transport layers are effective strategies to enhance the efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). This study evaluates, for the first time, the effects of selenophene substitution in the chemical structure of phenyl-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) on the performance and stability of inverted PSCs. Selenophene substitution was compared to thiophene and furan substitutions, and the reference PCBM without chalcogenophene moiety.

Negatively curved nanographenes are considered as cutouts of three-dimensional fully sp-hybridized carbon allotropes such as Schwarzites. Here we present the synthesis of a C cut-out of the Schwarzite 8-4-1-p proposed by Lenosky et al. and investigate its optical as well as electrochemical properties.

The synthesis of π-extended pyrenes keeps attracting considerable attention. In particular, frameworks containing nonbenzenoid rings might display intriguing properties. Here, we report a practical synthetic pathway to access a new buckybowl (1), which is composed of four five-membered rings externally fused to a pyrene core.
