Abstract:By exploiting coordination‐driven self‐assembly, high yields of two 818 molecular metalla‐knots could be obtained using a thiazole‐moiety‐containing asymmetric dipyridyl ligand 2‐(pyridin‐4‐yl)‐5‐(pyridin‐4‐ylethynyl)benzo[d]thiazole (L1), as confirmed using X‐ray crystallographic analysis, electrospray ionization‐time‐of‐flight/mass spectrometry (ESI‐TOF/MS), and detailed liquid‐state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. To modulate the self‐assembled structures, m‐chloroperbenzoic acid (m‐CPBA) was… Show more
