Abstract

Two novel neutral polyoxyethylene bridged cyclophanes (2a and 2b) incorporating bisphenol A units were synthesized and characterized by means of x-ray crystal structure determination. The binding properties of 2a and 2b toward tetramethylammonium, N-methylpyridinium, and acetylcholine cations were evaluated by means of 1H NMR spectroscopy. Consistent with indications provided by the molecular structure, the cavity in the basket-like cyclophanes is large enough to accommodate the given guest cations conveniently. Circumstantial evidence was obtained that 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane is too large to enter the cavity of the smaller cyclophane 2a, but can be included in the cavity of the larger cyclophane 2b.
