Novel rotaxanes based on the inclusion complexation of biphenyl guests by cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene)
摘要:
The finding that benzidine and 4,4'-biphenol form stable inclusion complexes in acetonitrile with the previously reported receptor cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene) was used to self-assemble novel redox-active rotaxanes based on the interactions that stabilize these inclusion complexes.

The inclusion complexation of 1,4-phenylenediamine (2) by the host cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene) (1(4+)) was used as the core interaction for the template-directed synthesis of a new redox-active [2]rotaxane (5(4+)) in high yield. The half-wave potentials for both monoelectronic oxidations of the 1,4-phenylenediamine subunit in this rotaxane exhibit remarkable anodic shifts as compared to the values typically observed in 1,4-phenylenediamine derivatives. These shifts result from the hindrance imposed by the rotaxane's tetracationic macrocyclic bead on the generation of additional positive charges. The electrostatic field created by the bead also slows down the kinetics of electron transfer, especially for the second oxidation process. Qualitatively similar effects were observed on the electrochemistry of a comparable rotaxane (7(4+)) built around the interactions between a benzidine subunit and host 1(4+), but the magnitude of the effects on the voltammetric parameters was smaller than in 5(4+).
