The interactions between cyclopentanocucurbit[6]uril (abbreviated as CyP6Q[6]) and a series of dialkyl-4,4′-bipyridinium and diaryl-4,4′-bipyridinium dicationic guest molecules, where the alkyl group is CH3(CH2)n with n=0–6 (expressed as G1 to G7) and the aryl group is phenylene (G8) and xylene (G9), have been investigated in aqueous solution using 1H NMR spectroscopy, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), and electronic absorption spectroscopy. Our results show that G1 and G2 form 1:1 host–guest inclusion complexes with CyP6Q[6], in which the bipyridinium core is partially embedded in the cavity of CyP6Q[6]. G3–G9 form 2:1 dumbbell-type host–guest inclusion complexes, in which the substituents are encapsulated by CyP6Q[6]. At the same time, CyP6Q[6] was compared with several other cucurbit[n]urils (Q[n]s) and their derivatives, such as Q[6], Q[7], and TMeQ[6], which have been reported to interact with this type of guest molecule. In its binding mode, CyP6Q[6] shows many interesting and different properties, and this difference was mainly reflected with G1 and G2.

The tri-ortho-thymotide (TOT) clathrates of dibromo- and dichloromethane were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction at 200 K and solid-state 2H NMR spectroscopy as a function of temperature. The host structure was found to be typical of other cage-type TOT clathrates. The X-ray results showed a substantial amount of disorder among the guest molecules. In both clathrates, multiple guest molecule positions could be modeled. The heavy atoms of all the guest molecule positions lie approximately in the same plane, with some out-of-plane distortion. The guest molecules were of two different types in positions symmetric about the crystallographic twofold rotation axis: type A guests, with carbon atoms well removed from the crystallographic twofold axis, and type B guests, with carbon atoms very close to the twofold axis. The 2H NMR spectra for the guests confirmed that the disorder was dynamic. The experimental results could be accounted for by the presence of three simultaneous types of molecular motion, all fast with respect to the 2H quadrupolar interaction: (i) twofold molecular flips about the molecular C2 symmetry axis, (ii) exchange between the type A and type B sites in a single plane, and (iii) a two-site libration of the plane containing the heavy atoms of the A and B guest sites with a temperature-dependent amplitude.

The complexation of cationic pyronine B (PB+) and pyronine Y (PY+) by β-cyclodextrin (βCD) and two linked βCD dimers, N,N′-bis((2AS,3AS)-3A-deoxy-β-cyclodextrin-3A-yl)succinamide, 33βCD2suc, and N,N′-bis(6A-deoxy-β-cyclodextrin-6A-yl)succinamide, 66βCD2suc, in aqueous solution has been studied by UV-vis, fluorescence, and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The complexation constants for the 1:1 complexes: βCD.PB+, 33βCD2suc.PB+, 66βCD2suc.PB+, and the analogous PY+ complexes are reported as are the dimerization constants for PB+ and PY+. The modes of complexation, dimerization, and fluorescence quenching are discussed.

A fully computerized potentiometric technique has been used to analyze the energetics of the encapsulation of o-, m-, and p-hydroxybenzoic acids by β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and (or) two of its most used derivatives: 2,6-di-O-methyl-β-cyclodextrin (DIMEB) and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPBCD). The study has been carried out by measuring the pH of aqueous solutions of the three hydroxyacids in the absence of cyclodextrin at 25°C, and in the presence of cyclodextrin at several temperatures ranging from 15 to 40°C, keeping constant the concentration of the guest. The dissociation constant of the acids and the binding constants of the inclusion complexes formed have been simultaneously determined at all the temperatures by using a model previously derived by us. The carboxylic forms have been found to bind the CD with higher affinities than the carboxylate partners do, irrespective of the temperature, the cyclodextrin used, and the position of the substituents on the guest molecules. The formation of the inclusion complexes studied in this work has been found to be enthalpy driven, with a favorable enthalpic term dominant over an unfavorable entropic one. The effect of the substituents of both guest and host molecules on the thermodynamics of the inclusion processes has been analyzed. Key words: binding constant, β-cyclodextrin, hydroxybenzoic acid, inclusion complex, substituent effect.
