Summary: | [Display omitted]
Aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction between cyclotriguaiacylene and ortho- or meta-functionalized fluoroarenes affords a series of ortho- or meta-extended cyclotriveratrilene (CTV) cavitands. Further transformation of the functional groups into NH and/or OH moieties has been demonstrated. This enabled us to prepare an amphoteric water-soluble cavitand bearing anilino-NH2 and phenolic-OH substituents. In addition, one molecular structure was successfully determined by crystallographic analysis, which suggests an extended/flattened structure. We propose that vase-shaped conformations with inwardly directed functional groups will soon be possible with the CTV scaffold. |
