Anion Complexation and The Hofmeister Effect

The ¹H NMR spectroscopic analysis of the binding of the ClO₄^? anion to the hydrophobic, concave binding site of a deep‐cavity cavitand is presented. The strength of association between the host and the ClO₄^? anion is controlled by both the nature and concentration of co‐salts in a manner that follows the Hofmeister series. A model that partitions this trend into the competitive binding of the co‐salt anion to the hydrophobic pocket of the host and counterion binding to its external carboxylate groups successfully accounts for the observed changes in ClO₄^? affinity.     

Anion effects on the recognition of ion pairs by calix[4]arene-based heteroditopic receptors

A novel heteroditopic receptor (5) based on a rigid calix[4]arene cavity bearing at the upper rim four arylsulfonamido binding sites has been synthesized. The binding abilities of this new host have been investigated in apolar solvents toward a series of tetramethylammonium salts (tosylate, chloride, acetate, trifluoroacetate, and picrate) and compared with those of monotopic and heteroditopic calix[4]arene-bis(crown-3)-based receptors 1 and 2 in order to evaluate the role of the anion on ion-pair recognition. While monotopic host 1 shows an efficiency order toward the different salts that increases when the anion is less interactive (Hofmeister trend), an opposite role of the counteranion on the recognition process was observed with host 5 (anti-Hofmeister trend). A more complex behavior is experienced by host 2, which shows a high and leveled efficiency for all the anions tested. The results obtained were explained on the basis of the different types of ion pairs present in the recognition process. Further information on the role of the anion were obtained by the "dual host" strategy utilizing the tri-n-butylthioureido derivative of tren 7, which forms a stable complex with chloride anion. The very high efficiency shown by these heteroditopic hosts opens new routes in supramolecular projects and is a very interesting tool in the molecular recognition of ion-pairs and its applications.     

Anion recognition by neutral macrocyclic amides

Although amides often serve as anchoring groups in natural and synthetic anion receptors, the structure-affinity relationship studies of amide-based macrocyclic receptors are still very limited. Therefore, we decided to investigate the influence of the size of the macroring on the strength and selectivity of anion binding by uncharged, amide-based receptors. With this aim, we synthesized a series of macrocyclic tetraamides derived from 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid and aliphatic alpha,omega-diamines of different lengths. X-ray analysis shows that all ligands studied adopt expanded conformations in the solid state with the convergent arrangement of all four hydrogen-bond donors. 1H NMR titrations in DMSO solution revealed a significant effect of the ring size on the stability constants of anion complexes; the 20-membered macrocyclic tetraamide 2 is a better anion receptor than its both 18- and 24-membered analogues. This effect cannot be interpreted exclusively in terms of matching between anion diameter and the size of macrocyclic cavity, because 2 forms the most stable complexes with all anions studied, irrespective of their sizes. However, geometric complementarity manifests in extraordinarily high affinity of 2 towards the chloride anion. The results obtained for solutions were interpreted in the light of solid-state structural studies. Taken together, these data suggest that anion binding by this family of macrocycles is governed by competitive interplay between their ability to adjust to a guest, requiring longer aliphatic spacers, and preorganization, calling for shorter spacers. The 20-membered receptor 2 is a good compromise between these factors and, therefore, it was selected as a promising leading structure for further development of anion receptors. Furthermore, the study of an open chain analogue of 2 revealed a substantial macrocyclic effect. X-ray structure of the acyclic model 14 suggests that this may be due to its ill-preorganized conformation, stabilized by two intramolecular hydrogen bonds.     

磷酸根离子在阴离子交换树脂上的保留行为及其机理探讨

首次发现磷酸根离子在阴离子交换柱上以两个色谱峰流出。在研究磷酸根离子的保留行为的基础上,提出了Ｈ２ＰＯ－４在固定相中进一步离解的保留机理,即Ｈ２ＰＯ－４在与阴离子交换树脂交换基进行离子交换的过程中,由于树脂交换基和淋洗离子的电荷相互作用促使一部分Ｈ２ＰＯ－４进行第２级离解。由于Ｈ２ＰＯ－４和ＨＰＯ２－４在阴离子交换树脂上的保留值不同,导致磷酸根离子出现“双峰”。     

Towards the Discrimination of Carboxylates by Hydrogen‐Bond Donor Anion Receptors

The binding constants (log K_ass) of small synthetic receptor molecules based on indolocarbazole, carbazole, indole, urea and some others, as well as their combinations were measured for small carboxylate anions of different basicity, hydrophilicity and steric demands, that is, trimethylacetate, acetate, benzoate and lactate, in 0.5 % H₂O/[D₆]DMSO by using the relative NMR‐based measurement method. As a result, four separate binding affinity scales (ladders) including thirty‐eight receptors were obtained with the scales anchored to indolocarbazole. The results indicate that the binding strength is largely, but not fully, determined by the strength of the primary hydrogen‐bonding interaction. The latter in turn is largely determined by the basicity of the anion. The higher is the basicity of the anion the stronger in general is the binding, leading to the approximate order of increasing binding strength, lactate<benzoate<acetate≤trimethylacetate, which holds with all investigated receptors. Nevertheless, there are a number of occasions when the binding order changes with changing of the carboxylate anion, sometimes quite substantially. Principal component analysis (PCA) reveals that this is primarily connected to preferential binding of trimethylacetate, supposedly caused by an additional hydrophobic/solvophobic interaction. These findings enable making better predictions, which receptor framework or cavity is best suited for carboxylate anions in receptor design.     

Polymer control of ligand display on gold nanoparticles for multimodal switchable cell targeting

The function of cell-specific ligands on gold nanoparticles can be selectively gated by the action of co-grafted thermosensitive polymers. Below the LCST the responsive chain-extended polymers prevent cell-surface receptors from accessing the affinity ligands while above the LCST, the polymers collapse exposing the ligands and allowing binding to receptors, which in turn promotes cell internalisation.     

Anion binding properties of indolylmethanes

The anion binding properties of the indolylmethanes (1) were investigated by ¹H-NMR spectroscopy in CDCl₃. Tris(3-methylindol-2-yl)methane (1a) selectively bound a chloride anion the over other tested anions (Br^?, I^?, HSO ₄ ^? , and NO ₃ ^? ). In contrast, analogous compounds, phenyl bis(3-methylindol-2-yl)methane (1b), 2-hydroxyphenyl bis(3-methylindol-2-yl)methane (1c), tri(indol-3-yl)methane (1d), and phenyl di(indol-2-yl)methane (1e), showed a low anion binding ability and selectivity. These results indicate that the number and a position of the binding sites (indole NH protons) of the indolylmethanes are important factors for the formation of the complex with an anion. The high binding ability and selectivity of 1a toward a chloride anion is attributed to the proper size of the binding pocket for a chloride anion and the formation of multiple hydrogen bonds between the three indole NH protons and a chloride anion. The anion affinity of 1a was significantly affected by the cation component of quaternary ammonium salts, indicating that it is ion pair binding and not solely anion binding.     

Anion binding studies of fluorinated expanded calixpyrroles

The anion binding properties of fluorinated calix[n]pyrroles (n = 4-6) in aprotic solvents (acetonitrile and DMSO) and modified reaction conditions allowing for the synthesis and isolation of the hitherto missing dodecafluorocalix[6]pyrrole from the condensation of 3,4-difluoro-1H-pyrrole and acetone are described. In acetonitrile solution containing 2% water, the association constants for the 1:1 binding interaction between octafluorocalix[4]pyrrole and chloride anion obtained with isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and (1)H NMR titration methods were found to match reasonably well. As compared to its nonfluorinated congener, octafluorocalix[4]pyrrole was found to display enhanced binding affinities for several representative anions in pure acetonitrile as judged from ITC analyses. Similar analyses of the fluorinated calix[n]pyrroles revealed an increase in the relative affinity for bromide over chloride with increasing macrocycle size, as manifest in a decrease in the binding ratio K(a(Cl))/K(a(Br)). Anion binding studies in the solid state, involving single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses of the chloride and acetate anion complexes of octafluorocalix[4]pyrrole and decafluorocalix[5]pyrrole, respectively, confirmed the expected hydrogen bond interactions between the pyrrolic NH protons and the bound anions.     

Polymers for Anion Recognition and Sensing

In biological systems, the selective and high‐affinity recognition of anionic species is accomplished by macromolecular hosts (anion‐binding proteins) that have been “optimized” through evolution. Surprisingly, it is only recently that chemists have systematically attempted to develop anion‐responsive synthetic macromolecules for potential applications in medicine, national security, or environmental monitoring. Recent results indicating that unique features of polymeric systems such as signal amplification, multivalency, and cooperative behavior may be exploited productively in the context of anion recognition and sensing are documented. The wide variety of interactions—including Lewis acid/base, ion‐pairing, and hydrogen bonding—that have been employed for this purpose is reflected in the structural diversity of anion‐responsive macromolecules identified to date.     

Ion-pair recognition based on halogen bonding: a case of the crown-ether receptor with iodo-trizole moiety

The development of halogen-bond-based ditopic receptors capable of binding simultaneously both a cation and an anion has attracted recent research interest. In this work, the crown-ether receptor 1, which consists of an iodo-trizole moiety for anion recognition through halogen bonding and a Lewis-basic center for cation binding, was investigated using density functional theory calculations. The structural and energetic features for the complexes of 1 with single cations, single halide anions, and ion pairs were explored. Intermolecular interactions in these complexes were systematically analyzed by the atoms in molecules and noncovalent interaction index methods. The presence of the coordinated cation significantly increases the anion-binding affinity, while the binding of halide anions has a slight influence on the cation-binding affinity. Anti-cooperative effects were found in the ion-pair recognition of 1, due to the strong attraction between the two counterions in the complexes. The solvent weakens the interaction strength considerably, and anti-cooperativity becomes very small in solvent. The results reported in this work are of fundamental importance in the design of ion-pair receptors based on halogen bonding.     

Anion binding behavior of heterocycle-strapped calix[4]pyrroles

A comparative study of the halide and benzoate anion binding properties of a series of phenyl, pyrrole, and furan-strapped calix[4]pyrroles has been carried out. These receptors, which have previously been shown to bind the chloride anion (Yoon et al., Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 47(27):5038–5042, 2008), were found to bind bromide and benzoate anion (studied as the corresponding tetrabutylammonium salts) with near equal affinity in acetonitrile, albeit less well than chloride, as determined from ITC measurements or NMR spectroscopic titrations. This stands in marked contrast to the parent octamethylcalix[4]pyrrole, where the carboxylate anion affinities are substantially higher than those for bromide anion under identical conditions. This finding is rationalized in terms of tighter binding cavity present in the strapped systems. For all three anions for which quantitative data could be obtained (i.e., Cl^?, Br^?, PhCO₂ ^?), the pyrrole-strapped system displayed the highest affinity, although the relative enhancement was found to depend on the anion in question. In the specific case of fluoride anion binding to the pyrrole-strapped receptor, two modes of interaction are inferred, with the first consisting of binding to the calix[4]pyrrole via NH-anion hydrogen bonds, followed by a process that involves deprotonation of the strapped pyrrolic NH proton. A single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis provides support for the first of these modes and further reveals the presence of a methanol molecule bound to the fluoride anion.     

Visible-Light-Switchable Tellurium-Based Chalcogen Bonding: Photocontrolled Anion Binding and Anion Abstraction Catalysis

Exploring new noncovalent bonding motifs with reversibly tunable binding affinity is of fundamental importance in manipulating the properties and functions of supramolecular self-assembly systems and materials. Herein, for the first time, we demonstrate a unique visible-light-switchable telluro-triazole/triazolium-based chalcogen bonding (ChB) system in which the Te moieties are connected by azobenzene cores. The binding strengths between these azo-derived ChB receptors and the halide anions (Cl⁻, Br⁻) could be reversibly regulated upon irradiation by visible light of different wavelengths. The cis-bidentate ChB receptors exhibit enhanced halide anion binding ability compared to the trans-monodentate receptors. In particular, the telluro-triazolium-based ChB receptor can achieve both high and significantly photoswitchable binding affinities for halide anions, which enable it to serve as an efficient photocontrolled organocatalyst for ChB-assisted halide abstraction in a Friedel–Crafts alkylation benchmark reaction.     

Electrolyte Anion Affinity and Its Effect on Oxyanion Adsorption on Goethite

The influence of various types of background electrolytes (NaCl, NaNO(3), and NaClO(4)) on the proton adsorption and on the adsorption of sulfate and phosphate on goethite have been studied. Below the PZC the proton adsorption on goethite decreases in the order Cl>NO(3)>ClO(4). The decreasing proton adsorption affects the adsorption of oxyanions on goethite. Anion adsorption of strongly binding polyvalent anions is lower in the studied electrolytes in the order Cl相似文献   

Anion binding versus intramolecular hydrogen bonding in neutral macrocyclic amides

Although amide groups are important hydrogen-bond donors in natural and synthetic anion receptors, studies on structure-affinity relationships of amide-based macrocyclic receptors are still very limited. Therefore, we synthesized a series of macrocyclic tetraamides 5-8 derived from 1,3-benzenedicarboxylic (isophthalic) acid and aliphatic alpha,omega-diamines of different lengths. (1)H NMR titrations in DMSO solution show that the anion affinity of these receptors decreases with increasing size of the macrocycle irrespective of the anion, and this suggests a minor role of geometric complementarity. Comparison with their previously studied pyridine congeners reveals that the isophthalic acid based macrocycles are less potent, in contrast to what was found for simple model diamides. Combined theoretical and experimental structural studies were carried out to determine the reasons behind this behaviour. The results show that the unexpectedly low anion binding ability of the isophthalic acid-based receptors is due to the self-complementary nature of the isophthalic bis-amide fragments: when two such moieties are present within a sufficiently flexible macrocycle, they adopt syn-anti conformations and bind each other by two strong intramolecular hydrogen bonds that close the macrocyclic cavity. Nevertheless, anion binding is able to break these hydrogen bonds and switch a macrocycle into a convergent all-syn conformation. Despite the ill-preorganized conformation, 20-membered receptor 6 is better than either its open-chain analogue (macrocyclic effect) and/or its isomer having differently placed carbonyl groups. The crystal structures of four anion complexes of the macrocyclic receptors are reported. X-ray studies and solution NMR data confirmed the inclusive nature of the complexes and pointed to strong involvement of aromatic CH hydrogen atoms in anion binding.     

Study on the Anion Recognition Properties of Synthesized Receptors （Ⅲ）： Convenient Synthesis and Anion Recognition Property of Bisthiosemicarbazone Derivative

A new series of bisthiosemicarbazone derivative receptors(1,2 and 3)have been synthesized by simple steps ingood yields.Their anion recognition properties were studied by UV-Vis and ~1H NMR spectroscopy.The resultshowed that the receptors 1,2 and 3 all had a better selectivity to F~-,CH_3COO~- and H_2PO_4~-,but no evidentbinding with Cl~-,Br~-,I~-,NO_3~- and HSO_4~-.Upon addition of the three anions to the receptors in DMSO,thesolution acquired a color change from colorless to dark yellow that can be observed by the naked-eyes,thus the re-ceptors can act as fluoride ion sensors even in the presence of other halide ions.The data showed that it was regularthat the three receptors had different binding ability with the three anions.For the same anion,the association con-stants followed the trend:receptor 1>3>2.The UV-Vis data indicates that a 1:1 stoichiometry complex isformed through hydrogen bonding interactions between compound 1,2 or 3 and anions.     

Tuning CH Hydrogen Bond-Based Receptors toward Picomolar Anion Affinity via the Inductive Effect of Distant Substituents

Inspired by nature, artificial hydrogen bond-based anion receptors have been developed to achieve high anion selectivity; however, their binding affinity is usually low. The potency of these receptors is usually increased by the introduction of aryl substituents, which withdraw electrons from their binding site through the resonance effect. Here, we show that the polarization of the C(sp³)-H binding site of bambusuril receptors, and thus their potency to bind anions, can be modulated by the inductive effect. The presence of electron-withdrawing groups on benzyl substituents of bambusurils significantly increases their binding affinities to halides, resulting in the strongest iodide receptor reported to date with an association constant greater than 10¹³ M⁻¹ in acetonitrile. A Hammett plot showed that while the bambusuril affinity toward halides linearly increases with the electron-withdrawing power of their substituents, their binding selectivity remains essentially unchanged.     

Enhanced Macroanion Recognition of Superchaotropic Keggin Clusters Achieved by Synergy of Anion–π and Anion–Cation Interactions

Keggin clusters are the most widely used polyoxometalate building blocks for the construction advanced materials, but effective methods for precisely recognizing the isostructural analogues of Keggins are still limited. In this study we employed the zwitterionic molecule 4,4′-dipyridyl N,N′-dioxide as a recognition receptor to specifically bind to the three Keggin analogues PW₁₂O₄₀³⁻, PMo₁₂O₄₀³⁻, and SiW₁₂O₄₀⁴⁻, which separately co-assembled into three different types of spherical charged colloids of different sizes. The recognition phenomena were confirmed by electrochemical methods and their crystallization behavior. Compared with solely anion–cation interaction-driven systems, the synergism with the anion–π interactions between the superchaotropic Keggins and the electron-deficient pyridine rings is believed to enhance the recognition. This observation is intriguing as the long-range solution assembly of Keggins is mainly driven by short-range anion–π interactions. Our results show that the little-noticed hydration shell of Keggins is significantly influenced by the superchaotropic effect, leading to differentiated binding affinity to the receptors and more obvious recognition phenomena between tungsten/molybdenum Keggin analogues.     

Continuously Tunable Ion Rectification and Conductance in Submicrochannels Stemming from Thermoresponsive Polymer Self‐Assembly

A biomimetic conical submicrochannel (tip side ca. 400 nm) with functions of continuously tunable ion rectification and conductance based on thermoresponsive polymer layer‐by‐layer (LbL) self‐assembly is presented. These self‐assembled polymers with different layers exhibited a capability to regulate the effective channel diameter, and different ion rectifications/conductance were achieved. By controlling temperature, the conformation and wettability of the assembled polymers were reversibly transformed, thus the ion rectification/conductance could be further adjusted subtly. Owing to the synergistic effect, the ion conductance could be tuned over a wide range spanning three orders of magnitude. Moreover, the proposed system can be applied for on‐demand on‐off molecule delivery, which was important for disease therapy. This study opens a new door for regulating channel size according to actual demand and sensing big targets with different size with one channel.     

Understanding the Chloride Affinity of Barbiturates for Anion Receptor Design

Due to their potential binding sites, barbituric acid (BA) and its derivatives have been used in metal coordination chemistry. Yet their abilities to recognize anions remain unexplored. In this work, we were able to identify four structural features of barbiturates that are responsible for a certain anion affinity. The set of coordination interactions can be finely tuned with covalent decorations at the methylene group. DFT-D computations at the BLYP-D3(BJ)/aug-cc-pVDZ level of theory show that the C−H bond is as effective as the N−H bond to coordinate chloride. An analysis of the electron charge density at the C−H⋅⋅⋅Cl⁻ and N−H⋅⋅⋅Cl⁻ bond critical points elucidates their similarities in covalent character. Our results reveal that the special acidity of the C−H bond shows up when the methylene group moves out of the ring plane and it is mainly governed by the orbital interaction energy. The amide and carboxyl groups are the best choices to coordinate the ion when they act together with the C−H bond. We finally show how can we use this information to rationally improve the recognition capability of a small cage-like complex that is able to coordinate NaCl.
