Formation and Optical Absorption of Clusters of the p-tert-butylcalix[8]arene:C60 Complex

Depending on the initial concentrations of fullerene (C₆₀) and p-tert-butyl calix[8]arene (C[8]A) in toluene, two regimes of their interaction were distinguished. The changes in optical absorption of C₆₀:C[8]A mixed solutions observed over a period of time suggest that the following consecutive processes take place upon interaction between C₆₀ and C[8]A in toluene: (1) molecular inclusion, and (2) growth and sedimentation of the insoluble C₆₀/C[8]A clusters. At increased concentrations of the components, process (2) is suppressed and stable C₆₀/C[8]A colloids can be formed. Spectral features of these colloids in different solvents clearly indicate the difference between self-aggregated C₆₀ and small clusters of the complex. A specific influence of the C[8]A cage on the entrapped C₆₀ molecules is also confirmed by IR spectroscopy of the complex in the solid state.

Synthesis of a Naphthalimide Functionalized Calix[4]arene; A Host Type Fluorophore for Inclusion Compounds in Organic Medium

This article reports the synthesis and the properties of 5,11,17,23-tetra(t-butyl)-25,27-bis-(ethoxy-1,8-naphthalimide)-26,28-hidroxy-calix[4]arene and the formation of an inclusion compound in organic medium. This functionalized calix[4]arene was conceived as the association of a potential host species with a good fluorophore for optical sensoring purposes. Calix[4]-NI as we will call it, maintains its ‘cone-pinched’ configuration and exhibits typical naphthalimide fluorescence bands in non-polar solvents. Its ability to interact with guest species via hydrogen bonding in its endo-hydrophilic cavity to form inclusion compounds was verified with absorption and fluorescence measurements using N-ethanol-1,8-naphthalimide as guest species, which was projected to fit exactly the host cavity and to interact with its naphthalimide π electrons. For this reason, it was possible to follow the formation of the inclusion compound with electronic spectroscopy.in final form: 17 November 2004.This revised version was published online in July 2005 with a corrected issue number.

Facilitated Transport of Cr(VI) through Polymer Inclusion Membrane System Containing Calix[4]arene Derivative as Carrier Agent

Chromium(VI) is one of the major toxic elements present in environmental samples. The polymer inclusion membrane (PIM), has been developed to provide metal ion transport with high selectivity. This study was conducted to discover efficient methods for removing Cr(VI) from wastewater. A functionalized calix[4]arene carrier 1 in a PIM system was used to transport Cr(VI) from an acidic aqueous donor phase solution to an acceptor phase that contained an acetic acid/ammonium acetate solution at pH 6. The prepared PIM was characterized with Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and the Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) techniques as well as with contact angle measurements. The efficiency of Cr(VI) transport through the PIM was investigated by studying the effects of carrier concentration on the membrane phase as well as by measuring the amount of plasticizer in the membrane, the pH in the acceptor phase and the membrane's stability and thickness. The kinetic parameters were calculated as rate constant (k), permeability coefficient (P), flux (J) and diffusion coefficient (D_o). The transport efficiency of Cr(VI) was observed to be 98.61% after 10 h under optimized conditions. The experimental results show that Cr(VI) can transport from the donor phase to the acceptor phase with high efficiency through the PIM. The results also suggest that the transport efficiency of the PIM was reproducible and that a PIM is effective for long-term separation processes.

Comparison of pillar[5]arene and calix[4]arene anion receptor ability in aqueous media

Abstract

Recognition ability of both cationic pillar[5]arene and calix[4]arene has been studied in aqueous media. Anion complexation can be evaluated from their ability to complex their counterions as well as an added external organic anion. DOSY NMR experiments and fluorescence quenching show that pillararenes have a larger ability for including their own counterions than calixarenes irrespective of the anion (tetrafluoroborate or chloride or bromide) and the structure of the cationic moiety (trimethylammonium or methylimidazolium). Counterion complexation shows a picture where four to five positive charges of the pillar[5]arene are neutralised, meanwhile only one positive charge of the calixarene is neutralised for a 1 mM solution of the macrocycle. Irrespective of the smaller net positive charge in the pillar[5]arene, its binding ability for organic anions (toluenesulfonate or hydroxybenzoate) is larger than for calix[4]arene allowing a better accommodation of the guest in its cavity. The larger separation between the cationic groups of the receptor and its electron-rich aromatic region improves the anion recognition ability for pillar[5]arene.

Cooperative interaction of n-butylammonium ion with 1,3-alternate tetrapropoxycalix [4]arene: NMR and theoretical study

The interaction of 1,3-alternate tetrapropoxycalix[4]arene (1) with n-butylammonium ion (2) in CD(2)Cl(2) was examined using (1)H, (13)C and (14)N NMR spectroscopy and DFT (density functional theory) calculations. NMR shows that 1 forms with 2 an equimolecular hydrogen-bonded complex with the equilibrium constant 5.91 x 10(3) l/mol at 296 K. The structure of the complex can be shown to be asymmetric at 203 K, with 2 interacting by hydrogen bonds with the two ethereal oxygen atoms of one half of 1 and with the pi system of the other half, but is rapidly averaged to an apparent C(4h) symmetry by chemical exchange at higher temperatures. Using two related but independent techniques based on transverse and rotating-frame proton relaxation, it is shown that only an intermolecular exchange of 2 between the bound and free states takes place, in contrast to previously studied interaction of 1 with H(3)O(+). Its correlation time is 0.169 ms. It is shown by DFT calculations that such swift exchange is not possible without a cooperative interaction of both 2 and 1 with several molecules of water present. Similarities and contrasts between the exchange processes of 2 and H(3)O(+) bound to 1 are discussed, in particular with respect to the apparent quantum tunneling of the latter inside the molecule of the complex.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Complexing Properties of Calix[4]arene Schiff Bases

Four p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene derivatives with different Schiff base groups at the lower rim were efficiently prepared in three steps. p‐tert‐Butylcalix[4]arene was firstly O‐peralkylated with ω‐haloalkylphthalimide in the system of NaH/DMF to give calixarene tetraalkylphthalimides, which were in turn hydrazinolyzed to give tetraaminoalkylcalixarenes. Then by condensation of the latter with salicylaldehyde and 2‐hydroxy‐1‐naphthaldehyde, a series of calixarene Schiff bases were obtained in satisfying yields. The complexing properties of these Schiff bases for transition metal ions were investigated with UV spectroscopy.     

Complexation of Some Amino Acids and Peptides by p-Sulfonatocalix[4]arene and Hexasodium p-Sulfonatocalix[6]arene in Aqueous Solution

The stability constants (log K), the reaction enthalpy( H) and entropy ( S) of the complexesformed between some amino acids (glycine, L-alanine,L-valine, L-leucine, L-phenylalanine, L-tryptophan,L-threonine, and L-lysine) and peptides (glycyl-glycine,glycyl-L-alanine, glycyl-L-leucine, glycyl-L-phenylalanine,L-leucyl-glycine, L-leucyl-L-alanine, glycyl-L-valine,L-leucyl-glycyl-glycine, and glycyl-glycyl-glycine) withp-sulfonatocalix[4]arene and hexasodiump-sulfonatocalix[6]arene in aqueous solutions by meansof calorimetric titration have been investigated. The reportedresults demonstrate that the amino acids and peptides under studyform complexes with both p-sulfonatocalix[4]areneand hexasodium p-sulfonatocalix[6]arene. In the case of theamino acids and peptides the complexation with water-solublecalixarenes in aqueous solution is favored by enthalpiccontributions and disfavored by entropic contributions. However,no influence of the ring size of the calixarenes upon thecomplexation is observed. By comparison with the reaction ofthe sodium salt of phenol-4-sulfonic acid with amino acids amacrocyclic effect in case of the calixarenes is possible.     

Inclusion of p‐sulfonatothiacalix[4]arene and its metal complexes

As a new member of the water‐soluble calixarene family, p‐sulfonatothiacalix[4]arene possesses unique properties resulting from its inherent structural characteristics. In our recent research, we have investigated the self‐assembly of bowl‐like p‐sulfonatothiacalix[4]arenes with or without transition‐metal ions in the presence of suitable guests. We have obtained a series of compounds with different structural motifs, such as capsules, tetranuclear clusters, and molecular clefts. In addition, p‐sulfonatothiacalix[4]arenes show good inclusion abilities and can capture different guests by utilizing their hydrophobic cavities through supramolecular interactions. Even when a cone‐like conformation is fixed, the p‐sulfonatothiacalix[4]arene can also splay its opposite aromatic rings apart to adjust its cone‐like conformations from C_4v to C_2v and even lower symmetries. All of these show that it is a good candidate for the research of inclusion phenomena. © 2009 The Japan Chemical Journal Forum and Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Singly bridged double resorcin[4]arene bearing sixteen hydroxyl groups. Formation of capsular-type inclusion complexes in methanol

The Sc(OTf)₃-catalyzed mixed cyclocondensation of bis-1,2-(2,6-dihydroxyphenyl)ethane and 2-hexylresorcinol gave a singly bridged double-resorcinarene bearing sixteen hydroxyl groups at the peripheral positions. In methanol, the double-resorcinarene binds quaternary ammonium ions to form capsular-type 1:1 complexes.     

Calorimetric, NMR, and UV Investigations of Aliphatic l-Amino Acids Complexation by Calix[4]arene Bis-hydroxymethylphosphous Acid

The stability constants, enthalpy ΔH ⁰, entropy ΔS ⁰, and Gibbs energy ΔG ⁰ were determined for the host–guest complexes (1:1) of calix[4]arene bis-hydroxymethylphosphous acid with glycine, l-alanine, l-valine, l-leucine, l-isoleucine residues in methanol solution with the aid of the titration experiments followed by calorimetric and spectroscopic (¹H NMR, UV) methods. The experimental data indicated that the host–guest complexation was under control of the direct electrostatic interaction between negatively charged calixarene phosphoryl group and amino acid residue NH ₃ ⁺ group, modulated by the hydrophobic interaction, which drive the inclusion of the residue alkyl side-chain into the calixarene cavity. The stability of the inclusion complexes was found correlated with the size of the aliphatic amino acid’s side-chain. The experimental data were additionally analyzed in the terms of the three state model corresponding to coexistence of 2:1 and 1:1 complexation equilibria.
