The study investigates anion and ion pair binding using chiral modulation in macrocyclic receptors.
Synthesis of two π-conjugated fluorescent macrocyclic receptors (MR and C-MR)
C-MR contains two 18-crown-6 moieties
Evaluation of anion recognition through the formation of stable complexes
MR demonstrates efficient anion recognition
Stable complexes formed via C(sp²)-H•••X⁻ hydrogen interactions

Implication

Research reveals anion recognition in functionalized macrocyclic receptors, indicating effective binding mechanisms.

Abstract

Two π-conjugated fluorescent macrocyclic receptors (MR and C-MR, with C-MR bearing two 18-crown-6 moieties) were successfully synthesized. MR exhibits efficient anion recognition via stable complexes formed by multiple C(sp²)-H•••X⁻ hydrogen...
