葫芦[7]脲与紫精和香豆素修饰树枝形分子的分步结合及对体系发光性质的调控

合成了外围修饰香豆素PAMAM树枝形分子Gm-2(m+1)C, 外围和核心分别共价连接香豆素和紫精的树枝形分子EV-Gm-2(m+1)C (m=0, 1), 以及香豆素和紫精的模型化合物C-Model和EV, 化合物均通过了¹H NMR, IR和MALDI-TOF MS的鉴定. ¹H NMR和光物理研究结果表明, 在pH=4.5的醋酸-醋酸钠缓冲溶液中, CB[7]与紫精和树枝形分子外围的香豆素基团均可形成1:1的包结复合物, 结合常数分别为3.3×10⁶ mol^-1·L和1.4～1.6×10⁵ mol^-1·L. 香豆素基团中7位二乙氨基及取代侧部分香豆素环包裹在CB[7]刚性的疏水空腔内, 包结复合物的形成限制了香豆素7位N,N'-二乙氨基的扭转, 抑制了香豆素基团从发光的分子内电荷转移(ICT)态向不发光的扭曲的分子内电荷转移(TICT)态的转变, 而且CB[7]内腔的疏水环境有利于香豆素ICT态辐射跃迁, 使体系发光大大增强. EV-Gm-2(m+1)C与CB[7]的主客体作用为分步结合机制, 加入的CB[7]先与紫精基团作用形成包结复合物, 待体系中紫精基团与CB[7]结合后, 体系中香豆素基团再与CB[7]作用形成包结复合物. 无论是Gm-2(m+1)C还是EV-Gm-2(m+1)C体系, 均可以通过加入CB[7]的量调节体系中香豆素基团与CB[7]形成包结复合物的多少, 从而实现对Gm-2(m+1)C和EV-Gm-2(m+1)C体系发光的调控. 本工作为可调控发光树枝形聚合物的发展提供了一种新的策略.

Interaction of DNA and a series of aromatic donor-viologen acceptor molecules with and without the presence of CB[8

A series of 1-ethyl-1'-arylmethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium compounds is synthesized, where the aryl is phenyl (BEV), 2-naphthyl (NEV), 2-anthracenyl (AEV) or 1-pyrenyl (PEV). Among them, PEV and AEV can bind with calf thymus DNA mainly through intercalation and groove-binding modes, and both of them can be observed to photocleave plasmid pBR 322 DNA significantly under irradiation with a xenon arc lamp. After inclusion of cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]), all of the aromatic donor-viologen acceptor compounds exhibit efficient DNA photocleavage ability. The reason is that CB[8] can inhibit the intramolecular backwards electron transfer in the aromatic donor-viologen acceptor molecule, prolonging the lifetime of the charge separated excited state to some extent. These studies bring a new subject in DNA photocleavage research and a potential application of the host-guest supramolecular system.     

Isolated supramolecular [Ru(bpy)3]-viologen-[Ru(bpy)3] complexes with trapped CB[7,8] and photoinduced electron-transfer study in nonaqueous solution

The synthesis of two supramolecular diruthenium complexes, 1 ?CB[7] and 1 ?CB[8] (CB[n]=cucurbit[n]uril), which contain the respective host CB[7] and CB[8], were synthesized and isolated. In the case of host CB[8], the desired supramolecular complex was obtained by utilizing dihydroxynapthalene as a template during the synthesis. The ¹H NMR spectra, electrochemistry, and photochemistry of these supramolecular complexes were performed in nonaqueous solution. The results show that both CB[7,8] hosts mainly bind to the linker part in solution in acetonitrile. This binding also lowers the oxidation potential of the ruthenium metal center and hinders the quenching effect by the viologen moiety. It has also been shown that external methylviologen can be included into 1 ?CB[8]. Analysis with NMR spectroscopy, electrochemistry, and photochemistry clearly shows a viologen radical dimer formation between the bound viologen and free methylviologen, thereby showing that the unique abilities of the CB[8] host can be utilized even in nonaqueous solution.     

Host-guest chemistry and light driven molecular lock of Ru(bpy)(3)-viologen with cucurbit[7-8]urils

Host-guest chemistry and photoinduced electron-transfer processes have been studied in the systems containing Ru(bpy)3 complex covalently linked to viologen as a guest molecule and cucurbit[n]urils (n = 7, 8) as host molecules in aqueous solution. The Ru(bpy)3-viologen complex, [Ru(2,2'-bipyridine)2(4-(4-(1'-methyl-4,4'-bipyridinediium-1-yl)butyl)-4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine)]Cl4 (denoted as Ru2+-MV2+, 1) was shown to form stable 1:1 inclusion complexes with cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) and cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]). The binding modes are slightly different with CB[7] and CB[8]. CB[7] preferentially binds to part of the viologen residue in 1 together with the butyl chain, whereas CB[8] preferentially encloses the whole viologen residue. Photoinduced intramolecular electron transfer from the excited-state of the Ru moiety to MV2(+) which is inserted into the cavity of the CBs occurred. Long-lived charge-separated states Ru3(+)-MV(+*) were generated with the lifetimes of 280 ns with CB[7] and 2060 ns with CB[8]. This shows that CBs can slow down the charge recombination within supramolecular systems, and the difference in lifetimes seems to be due to the difference in binding modes. In the presence of a sacrificial electron donor triethanolamine, light-driven formation of a dimer of MV(+*) inside the CB[8] cavity was observed. This "locked" molecular dimer can be "unlocked" by molecular oxygen to give back the original form of the molecular dyad 1 with the MV2(+) moiety inserted in the cavity of CB[8]. The processes could be repeated several times and showed nice reversibility.     

Pyrrole/macrocycle/MOF supramolecular co-assembly for flexible solid state supercapacitors

Supramolecular assemblies constructed through the encapsulation of conductive polymers (CPs) by macrocyclic molecules have attracted increasing interest in the fields of supramolecular chemistry and electrochemistry. In this work, an effective strategy was reported to improve the stability and conductivity of CPs by electrochemically constructing different supramolecular assemblies composed of macrocycles and CPs. Typically, we uploaded zinc-based MOF (ZIF-8) onto carbon nanotube film (CNTF) and further electrically deposited macrocycles and CPs to gain the flexible conductive electrodes. Herein, five different supramolecular macrocycles, including α-cyclodextrin (α-CD), sulfato-β-cyclodextrin (SCD), sulfonatocalix[4]arene (SC[4]), cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]) and cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) were utilized and the electrochemical performances of the assembly electrodes increased in an order of α-CD < SCD < SC[4] < CB[6] < CB[7], significantly improving the areal capacitance up to 1533 mF/cm². This strategy may provide a new way for the application of macrocyclic supramolecules in electrochemical systems.     

Supramolecularly Catalyzed Polymerization: From Consecutive Dimerization to Polymerization

Herein, we propose a new method for promoting covalent polymerization by supramolecular catalysts. To this end, we employed cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) as a supramolecular catalyst, and successfully prepared polyelectrolytes in an aqueous solution by taking advantage of the CB[8]‐enhanced photodimerization of Brooker merocyanine moieties. Interestingly, 10 mol % CB[8] is enough to effectively catalyze this polymerization, because CB[8] can be spontaneously replaced by terminal groups from photodimerized products. In addition, the molecular weights of the obtained polyelectrolytes can be varied by the irradiation time or the monomer. By combining supramolecular catalysis and polymer chemistry, this line of research may enrich the methodology of polymerization and open up new horizons for supramolecular polymer chemistry.

A heterowheel [3]pseudorotaxane by integrating β-cyclodextrin and cucurbit[8]uril inclusion complexes

A heterowheel [3]pseudorotaxane was prepared by integrating two binary inclusion complexes of β-cyclodextrin-hydroxynaphthalene (β-CD·3) with a cucurbit[8]uril-viologen derivative (CB[8]·2), in which simultaneous molecular recognition of the adamantine moiety in 2 by β-CD and the charge-transfer interaction of 3 with the viologen nucleus of 2 in the cavity of CB[8] are two crucial factors for the formation of the quaternary complex.     

A host-induced intramolecular charge-transfer complex and light-driven radical cation formation of a molecular triad with cucurbit[8]uril

The host-guest chemistry of systems containing a molecular triad Ru(bpy) 3-MV (2+)-naphthol complex (denoted as Ru (2+)-MV (2+)-Np, 1) and cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) is investigated by NMR, ESI-MS, UV-vis, and electrochemistry. The Ru (2+)-MV (2+)-Np guest and CB[8] host can form a stable 1:1 inclusion complex, in which the naphthalene residue is back-folded and inserted together with the viologen residue into the cavity of CB[8]. The selective binding of Ru (2+)-MV (2+)-Np guest with beta-CD and CB[8] host is also investigated. We find that CB[8] binds the Ru (2+)-MV (2+)-Np guest stronger than beta-CD. Upon light irradiation, a MV (+*) radical cation stabilized in the cavity of CB[8] accompanied by the naphthalene residue has been observed. This novel system may open a new way for design and synthesis of photoactive molecular devices.     

Surface‐Bound Cucurbit[8]uril Catenanes on Magnetic Nanoparticles Exhibiting Molecular Recognition

We demonstrate the preparation of surface‐bound cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) catenanes on silica nanoparticles (NPs), where CB[8] was employed as a tethered supramolecular “handcuff” to selectively capture target guest molecules. In this catenane, CB[8] was threaded onto a methyl viologen (MV²⁺) axle and immobilized onto silica NPs. The formation of CB[8] catenanes on NPs were confirmed by UV/Vis titration experiments and lithographic characterization, demonstrating a high density of CB[8] on the silica NPs surface, 0.56 nm^?2. This CB[8] catenane system exhibits specific molecular recognition towards certain aromatic molecules such as perylene bis(diimide), naphthol and aromatic amino acids, and thus it can act as a nanoscale molecular receptor for target guests. Furthermore, we also demonstrate its use as an efficient and recyclable nano‐platform for peptide separation. By embedding magnetic NPs inside silica NPs, separation could be achieved by simply applying an external magnetic field. Moreover, the peptides captured by the catenanes could be released by reversible single‐electron reduction of MV²⁺. The entire process demonstrated high recoverability.     

Viologen‐Templated Arrays of Cucurbit[7]uril‐Modified Iron‐Oxide Nanoparticles

Magnetic and fluorescent assemblies of iron‐oxide nanoparticles (NPs) were constructed by threading a viologen‐based ditopic ligand, DPV²⁺, into the cavity of cucurbituril (CB[7]) macrocycles adsorbed on the surface of the NPs. Evidence for the formation of 1:2 inclusion complexes that involve DPV²⁺ and two CB[7] macrocycles was first obtained in solution by ¹H NMR and emission spectroscopy. DPV²⁺ was found to induce self‐assembly of nanoparticle arrays (DPV²⁺?CB[7]NPs) by bridging CB[7] molecules on different NPs. The resulting viologen‐crosslinked iron‐oxide nanoparticles exhibited increased saturation magnetization and emission properties. This facile supramolecular approach to NP self‐assembly provides a platform for the synthesis of smart and innovative materials that can achieve a high degree of functionality and complexity and that are needed for a wide range of applications.
