Unidirectional complexation of pillar[4]arene[1]benzoquinoneoxime with alkyl alcohols

Abstract

Despite progress in the unidirectional complexation of cyclodextrins and calixarenes with nonsymmetric guests, unidirectional complexation using pillararenes as hosts remains scarcely explored. In this report, we describe the formation of unidirectional [2]pseudorotaxane-like complexes which were realized using n-alkyl alcohol guests and pillar[4]arene[1]benzoquinoneoxime made from pillar[4]arene[1]quinone in a selective monofunctionalizing manner.
