Published: January 2019

Two macrocyclic bis-benzimidazolium salts 2 and 4 (23-membered for 2 and 25-membered for 4) were prepared, and their structures were confirmed by X-ray crystallography, H NMR and C NMR spectroscopy. The research of anion recognitions using 2 or 4 as hosts were carried out with the methods of fluorescence and ultraviolet spectroscopy, H NMR titrations, MS and IR spectra. The experiment results show that 2 can detect acetate anion and 4 can detect nitrate anion with favorable selectivity and sensitivity.

Article Synopsis
  • Chirality-driven self-sorting is vital for biosystems, like DNA, but achieving control over these structures and their properties remains difficult, especially for dynamic regulation.
  • A new saucer[4]arene-based system has been developed that allows for reversible chiral self-sorting, influenced by a chiral macrocycle and organic vapors, showcasing unique vapor-responsive behavior.
  • This research reveals how different alkyl ketone guests can lead to varying optical properties due to the formation of distinct self-sorted assemblies, emphasizing the importance of chiral self-sorting in creating advanced vapor-sensing technologies.

A highly branched pillar[5]arene-based sensor containing multiple BODIPY units has been designed and synthesized (B-P[5]arene). Systematical experiments on metal ion detection of B-P[5]arene in acetonitrile/water by emission and absorption spectra indicate that this macrocycle shows high sensitivity and selectivity to both Sn (II) and Hg(II) by dual-channels. Hg (II) ions quenched to the fluorescence intensity of B-P[5]arene, while Sn (II) caused a broader spectrum without any shifting in wavelength.

Cation and anion recognition have both played central roles in the development of supramolecular chemistry. Much of the associated research has focused on the development of receptors for individual cations or anions, as well as their applications in different areas. Rarely is complexation of the counterions considered.
