The synthesis of a new porous organic cage decorated with isopropyl moieties (CC21) was achieved from the reaction of triformylbenzene and an isopropyl functionalised diamine. Unlike structurally analogous porous organic cages, its synthesis proved challenging due to competitive aminal formation, rationalised using control experiments and computational modelling. The use of an additional amine was found to increase conversion to the desired cage.
一种新的多孔有机笼，用异丙基部分（CC21）进行了修饰，通过三醛基苯和一个异丙基功能化的二胺的反应实现了其合成。与结构类似的多孔有机笼不同，由于竞争亚胺的形成，其合成具有挑战性，通过控制实验和计算模拟进行了合理化。发现使用额外的胺可以增加所需笼的转化率。
