[2]Pseudorotaxane-Based Supramolecular Optical Indicator for the Visual Detection of Cellular Cyanide Excretion

Cyanide is extremely hazardous to living organisms and the environment. Owing to its wide range of applications and high toxicity, the development of functional materials for cyanide detection and sensing is highly desirable. Host–guest complexation between bis(p-phenylene)-34-crown-10 H and N-methylacridinium salt G remarkably decreases the detection limit for cyanide anions compared with that of the guest itself. The [2]pseudorotaxane selectively recognizes the cyanide anion with high optical sensitivity as a result of the nucleophilic addition of the cyanide anion at the 9-position of G . The host–guest complexation is further incorporated into supramolecular materials for the visual detection of cyanide anions, especially the detection of cellular cyanide excretion with a detection limit of 0.6 μm . This supramolecular method provides an extremely distinct strategy for the visual detection of cyanide anions.     

Synthesis,characterization, and properties of copolymer of acrylamide and complex pseudorotaxane monomer consisting of cucurbit[6]uril with butyl ammonium methacrylate

The novel copolymers of acrylamide (AM) with complex pseudorotaxane monomer (BAMACB) of butyl ammonium methacrylate (BAMA) and cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]) were prepared via free‐radical polymerization in aqueous solution. The copolymers containing pseudorotaxane (PAM/BAMACB) were characterized by ¹H‐NMR, FTIR, elemental analysis, TGA, and DSC. The glass transition temperature (T_g) of the copolymer PAM/BAMACB are higher than that of the copolymer of acrylamide and butyl ammonium methacrylate (PAM/BAMA) because of the enhanced rigidity and the bulky steric hindrance of BAMACB side chain in PAM/BAMACB. The molecular weights of copolymer PAM/BAMACB were obtained via static light scattering. The hydrodynamic radii of coils or aggregates were investigated by dynamic light scattering. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 46: 5999–6008, 2008     

Electrically insulated molecular wires

This paper is an up-to-date mini-review based on literature data and own results regarding synthesis and properties of conducting (pseudo)rotaxane supramolecular structures. Conjugated polymers, such as polyarylene, polyheteroarylene, polyaniline, polyarylenevinylene or polyaryleneimine, were used as axle, while the macrocyclic components were cyclodextrins, cucurbiturils, cyclophanes or crown ethers. Properties of the supramolecular structure such as solubility, thermal or chemical stability, conductivity, etc. can be drastically modified by the inclusion of hydrophobic conjugated polymers inside the macrocycle, without any chemical modification. For instance, the photophysical properties (i.e. quantum yield of fluorescence and electroluminescence) of the supramolecular structures were enhanced when compared with uninsulated conjugated polymers. The doping process is also affected, because the access of a dopant to the conjugated chain is limited only to the uncovered domains of the conjugated chain.     

Self‐assembly of a [2]pseudorotaxane complex by the threading of a nitrobenzimidazol‐based guest on dibenzo‐24‐crown ether host

A new derivative of the previously reported 1,2‐bis(benzimidazol‐2‐yl)ethane motif, cation [1H₂]²⁺, was synthesized under microwave irradiation and fully characterized by solution NMR, high‐resolution mass spectrometry, cyclic voltammetry and X‐ray crystallography. This cation presents a linear geometry and incorporates nitro substituents as electrochemical handles. In solution, cation [1H₂]²⁺, is capable of threading the cavity of dibenzo‐24‐crown‐8 ether host (DB24C8) giving rise to a [2]pseudorotaxane complex [1H₂?DB24C8]²⁺, regardless of the counterion, [CF₃SO₃]^? or [CF₃COO] ^?. The interpenetrated structure of [1H₂?DB24C8]²⁺ was proven by solution NMR and X‐ray crystallography. This host–guest complex is held together by several non‐covalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonding and ion‐dipole. An electrochemical study of [1H₂]²⁺ in the presence of variable amounts of DB24C8 was performed; due to the irreversible redox behavior of cation [1H₂]²⁺, it was not possible to electrochemically control the association/dissociation process with DB24C8.

Encapsulation of 2,2′-(decane-1,10-diyl)-diisoquinoline into cucurbit[6]uril and α,α′,δ,δ′-tetramethyl-cucurbit[6]uril: formation of pseudorotaxanes and polypseudorotaxanes†

Host–guest complexation of cucurbit[6]uril and α,α′,δ,δ′-tetramethyl-cucurbit[6]uril with 2,2′-(decane-1,10-diyl)-diisoquinolinium has been investigated by ¹H NMR, UV and fluorescence spectroscopy in aqueous solution and by X-ray crystallography in solid state. Experimental data suggest that in the aqueous solution, both host molecules form [2]pseudorotaxanes with the host located over the decyl chain of the guest. In the solid state, neighbouring [2]pseudorotaxanes are linked by π?π and C–H?π interactions, eventually generating polypseudorotaxanes.
