Enantiomerically pure tetraphenylene-based homochiral macrocyclic tetramer and its recognition property towards C76 fullerene

Enantiomerically pure tetraphenylene-based homochiral macrocyclic tetramer and its recognition property towards C76 fullerene
The synthesis and characterization of novel homochiral oligomacrocycle species composed of enantiomerically-pure tetraphenylene were described. Structural studies showed that the macrocyclic molecule possessed a helical chiral cavity, which exhibited unique and efficient recognition affinity towards fullerene C76 in toluene, as demonstrated by UV–vis titration experiments. The binding results were also interpreted through semi-empirical calculations.
