Asymmetric Synthesis of Enantioenriched Zigzag-Type Molecular Belts by Kinetic Resolution and Subsequent Transformations

Jieping Zhu, Shuo Tong

Asymmetric synthesis of enantioenriched zigzag-type molecular belts featuring copper/H8-binaphthol-catalyzed kinetic resolution of a resorcinarene derivative and subsequent transformations was developed. The acquired rigid and C4-symmetric belt exhibited r ...

Supramolecular Polymer Brushes

Friederike Katharina Metze

Thin polymer coatings present a method to modify the surface properties of underlying substrates. Polymer-coated surfaces have been used as anticorrosive materials, surfaces with special wetting properties, antifriction materials, and as materials for biom ...

Coordination-Driven Monolayer-to-Bilayer Transition in Two-Dimensional Metal–Organic Networks

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Mina Moradi

We report on monolayer-to-bilayer transitions in 2D metal–organic networks (MONs) from amphiphiles supported at the water–air interface. Functionalized calix[4]arenes are assembled through the coordination of selected transition metal ions to yield monomol ...

Shape retaining self-healing metal-coordinated hydrogels

Esther Amstad, Raffaele Mezzenga, Alvaro Lino Boris Charlet

Metal-coordinated hydrogels are physical hydrogels entirely crosslinked by complexes between ligand decorated polymers and metal ions. The mechanical properties of these hydrogels strongly depend on the density and dynamics of metal-coordinated interaction ...

Conjugating Biotin to Ruthenium(II) Arene Units via Phosphine Ligand Functionalization

Paul Joseph Dyson, Lucinda Kate Batchelor

Two-step functionalization of 4-diphenylphosphino benzoic acid with biotin afforded 2-(biotinyloxy)ethyl 4-(diphenylphosphanyl)benzoate (LP), that was subsequently used to synthesize the Ru(II) arene complexes [RuCl2(eta(6)-p-cymene)(LP)] (1), [Ru(C2O4)(et ...

Quantifying Guest-Host Dynamics in Supramolecular Assemblies to Analyze Their Robustness

Maartje Martina Cornelia Bastings, Eva Eugene Kurisinkal

The most basic function of synthetic microenvironments for tissue engineering is to act as a physical substrate for cell attachment, migration, and proliferation, similar to the natural cell environment. Functionalization of supramolecular materials with g ...

Host-guest chemistry with water-soluble gold nanoparticle supraspheres

Francesco Stellacci

The uptake of molecular guests, a hallmark of the supramolecular chemistry of cages and containers, has yet to be documented for soluble assemblies of metal nanoparticles. Here we demonstrate that gold nanoparticle-based supraspheres serve as a host for th ...

Solvent Induced Pseudopolymorphism in a Calixarene-Based Porous Host Framework

Philip Pattison

The self-assembly properties of the proximal p-tert-butylcalix[4]dihydroquinone compound have been studied to investigate the role played by crystallization conditions in driving the formation of a previously reported cubic porous framework. In chloroform ...

WO3-Fe2O3 Photoanodes for Water Splitting: A Host Scaffold, Guest Absorber Approach

Michael Graetzel, Kevin Sivula, Florian Le Formal

Solar hydrogen production via watersplitting with hematite (Fe2O3) has been limited by poor light absorption and a small hole diffusion length. These drawbacks can be overcome by using a high-surface-area host to support a thin layer of hematite-allowing p ...
