- Abstract
A 2 : 4 mixture of tetrakis[4‐(4‐pyridyl)phenyl]cavitand (1) or tetrakis[4‐(4‐pyridyl)phenylethynyl]cavitand (2) and Pd(dppp)(OTf)2 self‐assembles into a homocapsule {12 ⋅ [Pd(dppp)]4}8+ ⋅ (TfO−)8 (C1) or {22 ⋅ [Pd(dppp)]4}8+ ⋅ (TfO−)8 (C2), respectively, through Pd−Npy coordination bonds. A 1 : 1 : 4 mixture of 1, 2, and Pd(dppp)(OTf)2 produced a mixture of homocapsules C1, C2, and a heterocapsule {1 ⋅ 2 ⋅ [Pd(dppp)]4}8+ ⋅ (TfO−)8 (C3) in a 1 : 1 : 0.98 mole ratio. Selective formation (self‐sorting) of homocapsules C1 and C2 or heterocapsule C3 was controlled by guest‐induced encapsulation under thermodynamic control. Applications of Pd−Npy coordination capsules with the use of 1 were demonstrated. Capsule C1 serves as a guard nanocontainer for trans‐4,4′‐diacetoxyazobenzene to protect against the trans‐to‐cis photoisomerization by encapsulation. A chiral capsule {12 ⋅ [Pd((R)‐BINAP)]4}8+ ⋅ (TfO−)8 (C5) was also constructed. Capsule C5 induces supramolecular chirality with respect to prochiral 2,2′‐bis(alkoxycarbonyl)‐4,4′‐bis(1‐propynyl)biphenyls by diastereomeric encapsulation through the asymmetric suppression of rotation around the axis of the prochiral biphenyl moiety.
