Cyclodextrin-Based [3]Rotaxane-Crosslinked Fluorescent Polymer: Synthesis and De-Crosslinking Using Size Complementarity.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

November 2018

Department of Chemical Science and Engineering, Tokyo Institute of Technology, 2-12-1, O-okayama, Meguro-ku, Tokyo, 152-8552, Japan.

Vinyl-group-substituted, α-cyclodextrin-based, size-complementary [3]rotaxanes were synthesized as crosslinkers for rotaxane-crosslinked poly(methyl methacrylate) (RCP) by radical polymerization. The size complementarity of the crosslinkers made it possible to de-crosslink the RCP by heating, and the degree of decoupling was monitored by fluorescence intensity, depending on the state of the axle component of the rotaxane crosslink moiety.

Synthesis of a Structure-Definite α-Cyclodextrin-Based Macromolecular [3]Rotaxane Using a Size-Complementary Method.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

The challenging synthesis of an α-cyclodextrin (CD)-based macromolecular rotaxane with definite structure was fulfilled using a size-complementary method. A new peracetylated (PAc) α-CD-based size-complementary [3]rotaxane was prepared and its thermal dissociation kinetics studied. The de-slippage mechanism was found to be different from that of the native α-CD-based system.

We developed novel size-complementary molecular and macromolecular rotaxanes using a 2,6-dimethylphenyl terminal group as the axle-end-cap group in dibenzo-24-crown-8-ether (DB24C8)-based rotaxanes, where the 2,6-dimethylphenyl group was found to be less bulky than the 3,5-dimethylphenyl group. A series of molecular and macromolecular [2]rotaxanes that bear a 2,6-dimethylphenyl group as the axle-end-cap were synthesized using unsubstituted and fluorine-substituted DB24C8. Base-induced decomposition into their constituent components confirmed the occurrence of deslipping, which supports the size-complementarity of these rotaxanes.

α-Cyclodextrin (CD)-based size-complementary [3]rotaxanes with alkylene axles were prepared in one-pot by end-capping reactions with aryl isocyanates in water. The selective formation of [3]rotaxane with a head-to-head regularity was indicated by the X-ray structural analyses. Thermal degradation of the [3]rotaxanes bearing appropriate end groups proceeded by stepwise dissociation to yield not only the original components but also [2]rotaxanes.

An α-cyclodextrin-based size-complementary [3]rotaxane with an alkylene axle was selectively synthesized in one pot via an end-capping reaction with 2-bromophenyl isocyanate in water. Thermal degradation of the [3]rotaxane product yielded not only the original components but also the [2]rotaxane. Thermodynamic studies suggested a stepwise deslippage process.
