Anion−Anion Assembly:  A New Class of Anionic Supramolecular Polymer Containing 3,4-Dichloro-2,5-diamido-substituted Pyrrole Anion Dimers

Abstract: Two molecules containing two 2,5-diamido,3,4-dichloropyrrole units linked via 1,3- or 1,4-substituted benzene rings have been synthesized. The pyrrole groups in these compounds deprotonate in the presence of tetrabutylammonium fluoride and form pyrrole anion dimers via NH...N- hydrogen bonds. This dimerization process results in the formation of polyanionic chains linked via an unusual "orthogonal" hydrogen-bonding array.

“…Although pincer‐like coordination with the pyrrole hydrogen atom might have been anticipated, exposure of the ligand to fluoride led to deprotonation of the pyrrole NH group. A similar reaction was also observed for 6 , as described above 19. Gale suggests that a three‐step complexation process occurs in anion binding: 1) The initial equivalent of fluoride added is coordinated, and a downfield shift of the CH protons on the aromatic ring is observed in the NMR spectrum; 2) With the second equivalent of fluoride, the pyrrole NH group is deprotonated, and bifluoride (FHF − ) is formed; 3) The third equivalent of fluoride is then coordinated.…”

“…In the solid state, each Cl − ion is bound by three NH groups: two amide groups (N⋅⋅⋅Cl=3.27 and 3.28 Å) and a pyrrole donor (N⋅⋅⋅Cl=3.07 Å) 18. Crystallization in the presence of n Bu 4 N + F − , however, results in deprotonation of the pyrrole owing to the highly basic nature of F − in acetonitrile, which results in polymeric chains 19…”

“…We rationalize these findings in terms of deprotonation of the strapping pyrrole subunit in the presence of excess fluoride anion. Such an interpretation is consistent with the enhanced acidity expected for the pyrrole within the strap due to the electron withdrawing esters used to tether it to the rest of the receptor [9, 10]. …”

“…10b). In the solid state, the two half molecules are essentially planar, whereas the complete molecule is twisted such that the angle between the pyrrole rings is 61.79(5) [58]. Further, single-crystal X-ray analysis of the Cl À complex of p-phenylene-bridged 18 as a TBA salt shows a [1 + 2]-type binding mode [59].…”
