“…With the Tyndall effect and UV appearance in hand, we tried to use NMR 27,28 to probe the host and guest interactions in solution by detecting the chemical shift changes of protons on both 1 and SC4H. At pH = 7, like the weak non-covalent interactions in GNPS 29 and GBPS, 30 and the electrostatic interactions in a tetraphenylethene system, 31 the chemical shift of the peaks ascribed to 1 (Ha, Hb, Hc, Hd, He, Hf and Hg) showed marginal changes [up-field shifts of 0.02, 0.01, 0.01, 0.04, 0.01, 0.02 and 0.02 ppm (Fig.…”
