Double encapsulation of C60, 6CPP and Li+@C60 inside a peropyrenelinked, CPP-based double nanohoop

Key Points

• The research aims to explore the encapsulation of C60 and CPP within a double nanohoop structure to improve complex formation.
• Utilized peropyrene-linked double nanohoops for the experiments.
• Investigated solid-state packing effects on complex formation.
• Conducted proof-of-concept experiments to evaluate encapsulation efficiency.
• Demonstrated that the new structure influences the formation of 1:2 complexes with C60.
• Highlighted the interaction dynamics between Li+@C60 and the double nanohoop.
