Charge-transfer inclusion complex formation of the tropylium cation with prism[6]arenes

Abstract

Herein, we report that prism[6]arenes(PrS[6]R) can form charge-transfer (CT) inclusion complexes with tropylium tetrakis [3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)-phenyl]borate (G) in chloroform solution with an obvious CT band at 560 nm.
