A New Functional Bis(m-phenylene)-32-crown-10-Based Cryptand Host for Paraquats

Abstract: The pseudorotaxane complex of the new hydroxymethyl cryptand 3 with N,N'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium bis(hexafluorophosphate), PQ(PF6)2, has an association constant of 2.0(+/-0.3) x 10(4) M(-1). In the crystal structure of 3 x PQ(PF6)2 one of the bonding elements appears to be an aromatic edge-to-face interaction of a paraquat beta-proton with the hydroquinone moiety; this is the first time this interaction has been reported between a cryptand and paraquat.

“…Through analysis of CPK models and crystal structures, host molecules have been advanced to highly evolved crown‐based pyridyl cryptands, for example 5 and 6 . However, little improvement has been offered in way of the paraquat guest, the standard being dimethyl paraquat as the PF 6 salt ( 7 ) which displays reasonable association constants with various crown ethers[2–5] and analogous cryptands [4] …”

“…In order to improve complexation with paraquat derivatives, we introduced cryptands that have proved to be much better hosts than simple crown ethers [14][15][16][17][18]. Most of these reported cryptand/paraquat complexes are only pseudorotaxane-like because paraquat is not long enough to extend outside of the cavities of cryptands [14][15][16][17][18]. Here we report a "true" cryptand/paraquat [2]pseudorotaxane in which the paraquat derivative guest is long enough to extend from the cavity of the host.…”

“…Crown ethers [7][8][9][10][11][12][13], cryptands [14][15][16][17][18], cyclodextrins [19][20][21][22], cucurbit[n]urils [23][24][25], and calix[n]arenes [26,27] have been universally used as hosts to fabricate various supramolecular assemblies, which have great potential in molecular devices, chemosensors, and nano materials. Paraquat ( Figure 1) and its derivatives (N,N′-dialkyl-4,4′-bipyridinium salts) are common guests in the field of pseudorotaxanes and rotaxanes [28][29][30][31].…”

“…Work in the crown ether area illustrates this progress. The crown ether hosts provided modest binding strengths ( K a = 10 2 to 10 3 mol −1 ) with cationic guests, eg, secondary ammonium and bipyridinium salts,[2] but these were supplanted by the higher binding ( K a ≥ 10 5 mol −1 with bipyridinium guests) cryptand hosts [3]. Over time, highly efficient syntheses have been developed for the crown ethers[1g],[3d],[4] and the derived cryptands [3h]…”
