Abstract
A method to synthesize cofacial dimeric porphyrins bearing eight corannulene units has been developed. It relies on the stability of octahedral CO-capped Ru(II) complexes linked by N-donor ligands. This specific arrangement provides an optimal scaffold to accommodate fullerenes by imposing corannulene groups at a precise distance and relative orientation. Their capabilities for C60 recognition have been thoroughly assessed, revealing that each system can encapsulate up to four guests, giving rise to a compact supramolecular van der Waals complex echoing a discrete donor–acceptor–donor trilayer offering significant potential properties for further exploitation.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
