Study on the coordination of cyclopentanocucurbit[5,6]uril with Fe3+, Co2+ and Ni2+ ions

Abstract

This paper reports the coordination of cyclopentanocucurbit[5]uril (CyP5Q[5]) and cyclopentanocucurbit[6]uril (CyP6Q[6]) with Fe(ClO4)3, Co(ClO4)2 and Ni(ClO4)2. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows the metal ions are directly coordinated with the portal of the cucurbit[n]uril to form a one-dimensional supramolecular chain or independent systems in the CyP5Q[5]@Fe(ClO4)3, CyP5Q[5]@Co(ClO4)2, CyP6Q[6]@Co(ClO4)2 and CyP5Q[5]@Ni(ClO4)2 complexes. In CyP6Q[6]@Fe(ClO4)3, the metal ion is not directly coordinated with the cucurbit[n]uril portal, but after forming Fe(H2O)6, it interacts with the cucurbit[n]uril portal via a hydrogen bond. The CyP6Q[6]@Ni(ClO4)2 complex is quite special; in this system, there are both metal ions directly coordinated with the cucurbit[n]uril portal and free on the outer surface of the cucurbit[n]uril.
