Abstract Flavylium-based molecular switches are attractive molecular components to devise stimuli-responsive host-guest systems such as rotaxanes and pseudorotaxanes. These compounds display a pH-dependent reaction network of several species that reversibly interconvert within different time scales. Therefore, to explore and take profit of exceptional stimuli-responsive properties of these systems, detailed kinetic and thermodynamic characterizations are often required. In this work, we present the results of such characterization for a new flavylium compound decorated with a trimethylalkylammonium substituent designed to form a pseudorotaxane with cucurbit[7]uril (CB7). The formation of the pseudorotaxane was characterized in detail, and the thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of the flavylium interconversion reactions in the assembly were investigated and compared with the free molecular switch.

Hybrid Mesoporous Materials

AbstractThis study details development of hybrid mesoporous materials in which molecular transport through mesopores can be precisely controlled and reversibly modulated. Mesoporous silica materials formed by surfactant templating were modified by surface initiated atom transfer radical polymerization of poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAAm) a stimuli responsive polymer (SRP) within the porous network. Thermo gravimetric analysis and FTIR spectroscopy were used to confirm the presence of PNIPAAm on the silica surface. Nitrogen porosimetry, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analyses confirmed that polymerization occurred uniformly within the porous network. Uptake and release of fluorescent dyes from the particles was monitored by spectrofluorimetry and scanning laser confocal microscopy. Results suggest that the presence of PNIPAAm, a SRP, in the porous network can be used to modulate the transport of aqueous solutes. At low temperature, (e.g., room temperature) the PNIPAAm is hydrated and extended and inhibits transport of analytes; at higher temperatures (e.g., 50°C) it is hydrophobic and is collapsed within the pore network, thus allowing solute diffusion into or out of the mesoporous silica. The transition form hydrophilic to hydrophobic state on polymer grafted mesoporous membranes was determined by contact angle measurements. This work has implications for the development of materials for the selective control of transport of molecular solutes in a variety of applications.
