Abstract:

Three guests bearing different terminal groups —COOH(G1), —CH2Br(G2) and —CH3(G3) were synthesized based on the bispyridinium ethylene-core, respectively. The experiment results suggest that Q[7] host could slip the bispyridinium ethylene-core in the assistance of the terminal moiety —COOH of G1, and [2]pseudorotaxane based molecular shuttle could be formed between G1 and Q[7], whereas the terminal moiety —CH2Br(G2) and —CH3(G3) could not help Q[7] host slip the bispyridinium ethylene-core. This could be attributed to the different electrostatic potential properties between the terminal groups of the guest and the carbonyl portals of Q[7].

Key words: Cucurbit[n]uril, Pseudorotaxane, Molecular driving force, Host-guest interaction
