Synthesis, physico-chemical, structure and supramolecular properties of pinacolophanes: versatile synthetic precursors to stilbenophanes
摘要:
Novel pinacolophanes tethered by methyl and ethyl chains were synthesised and characterised. The stereochemistry of these small-sized cyclophanes was determined by NMR spectral data as well as by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Intramolecular hydrogen bondings in the crystal structure of the molecules play an important role in holding their configuration, while the intermolecular hydrogen bondings lead to a designed arrangement of the molecules. The stereoselective transformation of pinacolophanes to stilbenophanes in improved yield is also reported.
