Atroposelective Self‐Assembly of a Molecular Capsule from Amphiphilic Anthracene Trimers1. Issue 31 (19th June 2013) - Suzuki, Akira
Abstract Atroposelective formation: Selective formation of a molecular capsule was demonstrated from an amphiphilic cis‐atropisomer bearing three anthracene rings and four sulfonate groups through hydrophobic and aromatic–aromatic interactions. The dimeric capsule binds small guest molecules; the resultant host–guest complexes exhibit ground‐state charge‐transfer interactions accompanied by changes in host emission.
