Selective synthesis and physical properties of a bismacrocycle: Cycloparaphenylene-pillar[5]arene

Recent advances in supramolecular fullerene chemistry

“…[181][182][183][184][185][186][187][188][189][190] Additionally, fully conjugated This journal is © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2024 macrocycles like [n]CPPs, cyclo-porphyrins, and [n]cyclo-2,8chrysenylenes with well-defined diameters and unique radial conjugation exhibit fascinating electronic and optical properties. [191][192][193][194][195][196][197][198][199][200][201][202][203][204] These shape-persistent macrocycles offer significant advantages in constructing 1D nanotubes, 2D networks, and 3D complexes via self-assembly. 205 This review article primarily focusses on covalent macrocycles and metallomacrocycles, which have demonstrated their effectiveness as hosts for fullerene recognition (Fig.…”

Efficient manipulation of Förster resonance energy transfer through host–guest interaction enables tunable white-light emission and devices in heterotopic bisnanohoops

“…A mixture of equimolar amounts of P5-OTf and compound C7 (or C9) was refluxed with Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 as a catalyst in THF/H 2 O (5 : 1) to provide crude P5-[ n ]CPP-OMe, which was directly subjected to a reductive aromatization reaction without further purification in the presence of H 2 SnCl 4 to generate the desired products P5-[8]CPP and P5-[10]CPP (ref. 27 ) with a two-step yield of 26% and 25%, respectively. The structures of P5-[ n ]CPPs were confirmed by 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR and MALDI-TOF MS.…”
