A calix[4]pyrrole incorporating four appended tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) units has been synthesized, and its receptor abilities toward neutral electron-deficient guests, such as 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene, tetrafluoro-p-benzoquinone, and tetrachloro-p-benzoquinone, have been studied in solution by UV-vis and 1H NMR spectroscopies as well as in the solid-state by X-ray crystallography. In its 1,3-alternate conformation a 1:2 sandwich-like complex-stabilized by charge transfer and hydrogen bonding interactions-is formed between the tetra-TTF calix[4]pyrrole and the guest molecules. However, upon addition of chloride ions to the complex the 1,3-alternate conformation is changed in favor of a cone conformation which serves to effect a release of the guests from the tetra-TTF calix[4]pyrrole.
一种含有四个附加四硫富瓦烯(TTF)单元的杯[4]吡咯已被合成,并且通过紫外可见光谱和1H NMR光谱在溶液中以及通过X射线晶体学在固态下研究了其对中性缺电子客体(如1,3,5-三硝基苯、四氟对苯醌和四氯对苯醌)的受体能力。在其四-TTF杯[4]吡咯的1,3-交替构象中,通过电荷转移和氢键相互作用形成了一种1:2的三明治状配合物,该配合物在四-TTF杯[4]吡咯和客体分子之间形成。然而,向该配合物中加入氯离子后,1,3-交替构象发生变化,有利于形成锥形构象,这有助于使客体从四-TTF杯[4]吡咯中释放出来。
