Principles of sequence-recognition in aromatic polyimides

Abstract: Pyrene-based molecular tweezers show sequence-specific binding to aromatic polyimides through sterically-controlled donor-acceptor pi-stacking and hydrogen bonding; (1)H NMR spectra of tweezer-complexes with polyimides having different sequence-restrictions show conclusively that the detection of long range sequence-information results from multiple tweezer-binding at adjacent imide residues.

“… 46 , 50 As the spacer unit of the molecular tweezer ( Scheme 1 ), we used a pyridine 2,6-dicarboxamide unit that participates in intramolecular hydrogen bonding with the pyridine nitrogen favouring a relatively rigid syn , syn conformation of the NH groups. 18 , 21 , 51 53 …”

“…This strategy was extended later to the macromolecular systems wherein specific complementary D-A binding motifs could help in determining the sequence of high-molecularweight polymers [126] in the short as well as long range. [127,128] This group further utilized the pyrene-NDI alternate stacking interaction to demonstrate supramolecular crosslinking of a folded polymer. The system consists of a polyamide backbone with pyrene groups at both ends while the folding of the other polymer is achieved by intrachain p-stacking interactions between the NDI units.…”

“…Resonances associated with the perylenyl end-group are also seen to shift upfield and become broader in appearance. The complex pattern observed for the bound naphthyl and perylenyl proton resonances in the polymer blend arises from the range of different binding sequences [56,57] within the random co-polymer backbone (i.e. dimer, trimer, etc.)…”
