Abstract
Selective recognition and removal of sulfate and phosphates from aqueous media in the presence of highly competing anions is very demanding because of their biological and environmental implications. In this paper, we present the anion recognition approach for the selective and efficient extraction of sulfate by nitrophenyl-functionalized tris-urea receptors (L1-L2) from highly competitive aqueous media with an equivalent concentration of nitrate and other anions. Tetrabutylammonium hydroxide has been used for the first time as a phase transfer anionic extractant for sulfate-exchange from the aqueous phase to the organic phase (dichloromethane) containing a tris-urea receptor (L1-L3). The sulfate extraction efficacy of L2 (≈84-90%) was observed to be higher than those of L1 (≈76-82%) and L3 (≈68-75%) in competitive extraction experiments. In contrast, an analogous nitrophenyl-functionalized tris-thiourea receptor (L4) has been recognized for the selective and efficient extraction of phosphates from aqueous media in the presence of several competing anions including sulfate and nitrate, with ≈85-92% extraction efficiency. In this case, tetrabutylammonium acetate has been used as a phase transfer anionic extractant for phosphate exchange between the two immiscible phases. Due to the higher acidity of tris-thiourea -NH groups in comparison to the analogous tris-urea, tetrabutylammonium hydroxide could deprotonate a hydrogen bond donating -NH group of the thiourea receptor and phosphate extraction was observed to be inefficient in such a case. Several liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) experiments have been carried out to establish the selective removal of sulfate and phosphates by the tripodal receptors from competitive aqueous media having different combinations of two or more anions. The LLE products obtained from organic phases were characterized by NMR (1H, 13C, 31P, and 19F) spectroscopy to affirm the oxoanion selectivity of the receptors and purity of the complexes. The tripodal receptors can easily be recycled for successive extraction cycles by simply washing the LLE products (oxoanion complexes) with a methanol-water (1 : 1, v/v) solvent system followed by filtration.

Abstract
Work on the use of cyclic peptides or pseudopeptides as synthetic receptors started even before the field of supramolecular chemistry was firmly established. Research initially focused on the development of synthetic ionophores and involved the use of macrocycles with a repeating sequence of subunits along the ring to facilitate the correlation between structure, conformation, and binding properties. Later, nonnatural amino acids as building blocks were also considered. With growing research in this area, cyclopeptides and related macrocycles developed into an important and structurally diverse receptor family. This review provides an overview of these developments, starting from the early years. The presented systems are classified according to characteristic structural elements present along the ring. Wherever possible, structural aspects are correlated with binding properties to illustrate how natural or nonnatural amino acids affect binding properties.

Abstract
A sterically crowded light-responsive host 1 was synthetized with a 93% yield by applying a post-functionalization protocol utilizing the double amidation of 4,4'-azodibenzoyl dichloride with a readily available 26-membered macrocyclic amine. X-ray structures of two hydrates of trans-1 demonstrate a very different alignment of the azobenzene linkage, which is involved in T-shape or parallel-displaced π⋯π stacking interactions with the pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide moieties from the macrocyclic backbone. Despite the rigidity of the macrocyclic framework, which generates a large steric hindrance around the azobenzene chromophore, the host 1 retains the ability to undergo a reversible cis⟷trans isomerization upon irradiation with UVA (368 nm) and blue (410 nm) light. Moreover, thermal cis→trans back-isomerization (ΔG0 = 106.5 kJ∙mol-1, t½ = 141 h) is markedly slowed down as compared to the non-macrocyclic analog. 1H NMR titration experiments in DMSO-d6/0.5% water solution reveal that trans-1 exhibits a strong preference for dihydrogenphosphate (H2PO4-) over other anions (Cl-, MeCO2-, and PhCO2-), whereas the photogenerated metastable cis-1 shows lower affinity for the H2PO4- anion.

Abstract
Selective binding and transport of highly hydrophilic anions is ubiquitous in nature, as anion binding proteins can differentiate between similar anions with over a million-fold efficiency. While comparable selectivity has occasionally been achieved for certain anions using small, artificial receptors, the selective binding of certain anions, such as sulfate in the presence of carbonate, remains a very challenging task. Nanojars of the formula [anion⊂{Cu(OH)(pz)}n]2- (pz = pyrazolate; n = 27-33) are totally selective for either CO32- or SO42- over anions such as NO3-, ClO4-, BF4-, Cl-, Br- and I-, but cannot differentiate between the two. We hypothesized that rigidification of the nanojar outer shell by tethering pairs of pyrazole moieties together will restrict the possible orientations of the OH hydrogen-bond donor groups in the anion-binding cavity of nanojars, similarly to anion-binding proteins, and will lead to selectivity. Indeed, by using either homoleptic or heteroleptic nanojars of the general formula [anion⊂Cun(OH)n(L2-L6)y(pz)n-2y]2- (n = 26-31) based on a series of homologous ligands HpzCH2(CH2)xCH2pzH (x = 0-4; H2L2-H2L6), selectivity for carbonate (with L2 and with L4-L6/pz mixtures) or for sulfate (with L3) has been achieved. The synthesis of new ligands H2L3, H2L4 and H2L5, X-ray crystal structures of H2L4 and the tetrahydropyranyl-protected derivatives (THP)2L4 and (THP)2L5, synthesis and characterization by electrospray-ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) of carbonate- and sulfate-nanojars derived from ligands H2L2-H2L6, as well as detailed selectivity studies for CO32-vs. SO42- using these novel nanojars are presented.

Abstract
The role of the Cl- anion as a templating agent for the synthesis of cyclopeptides was assessed through the preparation of three new homocyclolysines and other six cyclic peptides by head-to-tail lactamization. Isolated yields of products obtained by chloride-templating approach were considerably higher than those gained by a cation-promoted procedure, whereby, in some cases, only the anion-assisted synthesis yielded the desired cyclopeptides.

Abstract
Selective extraction of sulfates in the form of alkali metal salts using charge-neutral molecular receptors is one of the holy grails of supramolecular chemistry. Herein we describe, for the first time, a squaramide-based ion pair receptor equipped with a crown ether site that is able to extract potassium sulfate from the aqueous to the organic phase (an analogous monotopic anion receptor lacking the crown ether unit lacks this ability). 1H NMR, UV-vis, DOSY-NMR, DLS, and MS experiments and the solid-state single crystal structure provided evidence of the formation of a supramolecular core-shell like assembly upon interaction of the receptor with potassium sulfate. The presence of monovalent potassium salts, in contrast, promoted the formation of simple 1 : 1 complexes. Unlike the 4 : 1 assembly, the 1 : 1 complexes are poorly soluble in organic media. This feature was utilized to overcome the Hofmeister bias and allow for selective extraction of extremely hydrophilic sulfates over lipophilic nitrate anions, which was unambiguously proved by quantitative AES and ion chromatography measurements. A simple modification of the receptor structure led to a "naked eye" optical sensor able to selectively detect sulfates under both SLE and LLE conditions.

Abstract
The combination of photo-switchable units with macrocycles is a very interesting field in supramolecular chemistry. Here, we present the synthesis of a foldable container consisting of two different types of Lissoclinum macrocyclic peptides which are connected via two azobenzene units. The container is controllable by light: irradiation with UV light causes a switching process to the compact cis,cis-isomer, whereas by the use of visible light the stretched trans,trans-isomer is formed. By means of quantum chemical calculations and CD spectroscopy we could show that the trans→cis isomerization is spatially directed; that means that one of the two different macrocycles performs a definite clockwise rotation to the other, caused by irradiation with UV light. For the cis→trans isomerization counterclockwise rotations are found. Furthermore, quantum chemical calculations reveal that the energy of the cis,cis-isomer is only slightly higher than the energy of the cis,trans-isomer. This effect can be explained by the high dispersion energy in the compact cis,cis-isomer.

Abstract
A novel thiourea organocatalyst was rationally designed by altering a typical H-bonding pattern of thiourea derivatives and utilising the potential of the 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl motif to participate in the H-bond formation. This unique catalyst afforded the products of the α-amination and Michael reaction in excellent yields and with a high level of stereoselectivity. Although additional studies are necessary to establish the full potential of the catalyst and to broaden its application further, the presented results may indicate alternative routes for further exploration of the thiourea class of organocatalysts.

Abstract
The anion-binding properties of two tripodal-based hexaureas appended with the m-nitrophenyl (1) and pentafluorophenyl (2) groups have been studied both experimentally and theoretically, showing strong affinities for sulfate over other inorganic oxoanions such as hydrogen sulfate, dihydrogen phosphate, bicarbonate, nitrate, and perchlorate. The structural analysis of the sulfate complex with 1 reveals that the receptor organizes all urea-binding sites toward the cavity at precise orientations around a tetrahedral sulfate anion to form an ideal C3-symmetric sulfate complex that is stabilized by 12 hydrogen-bonding interactions. The receptor and the encapsulated sulfate are located on the threefold axis passing through the bridgehead nitrogen of 1 and the sulfur atom of the anionic guest. The high-level density functional theory calculations support the crystallographic results, demonstrating that the C3-symmetric conformation of the sulfate complex is achieved due to the complementary NH···O between the receptor and sulfate.

Remarkable hexafunctional anion receptor with operational urea-based inner cleft and thiourea-based outer cleft: Novel design with high-efficiency for sulfate binding. Sci Rep 2017; 7:6032. [PMID: 28729544 PMCID: PMC5519707 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-05831-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2017] [Accepted: 06/05/2017] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
The recognition of anions by designed receptors has attracted much attention in recent days. In particular, the selective binding of sulfate with artificial receptors is important because of its relevance to many biological and environmental applications. However, the development of organized molecular receptors with high-efficiency for sulfate binding still remains a significant challenge. We report a novel para-phenylene-bridged hexafunctional tripodal receptor that contains a urea-based inner cleft and a thiourea-based outer cleft, providing perfect sites for step-wise binding of two anions within a single cavity. The new receptor was synthesized in a three-step process, and was investigated for its anion binding properties by 1H NMR titrations, 2D NOESY experiments and computational studies. As indicated by solution binding studies, the receptor selectively binds sulfate over other oxoanions, forming a 1:2 stoichiometric complex that is stabilized via strong H-bonding interactions. High-level DFT calculations reveal that the receptor, owing to the enhanced H-bonding ability of thiourea groups, initially encapsulates one sulfate in its thiourea-based outer cleft, followed by a second encapsulation in its urea-based inner cleft. Such a functionalized receptor with the unique combination of urea-based cleft and thiourea-based cleft in a single receptor has not been reported previously.

Abstract
A series of side-chain modified peptides have been prepared via an iterative sequence of peptide couplings and azide–alkyne cycloadditions (‘click’ reactions) using Fmoc-solid phase peptide synthesis. This efficient modular synthetic route allows the systematic and sequential incorporation of a variety of side-chain modifications onto short peptides. The versatility of this approach was demonstrated by the synthesis of a series of short peptides with appended anion recognition motifs and fluorescent indicators.

Abstract
A series of 9 homologous sulfate-incarcerating nanojars [SO4⊂{Cu(OH)(pz)}n]2- (Cun; n = 27-33; pz = pyrazolate), based on combinations of three [Cu(OH)(pz)]x rings (x = 6-14, except 11)-namely, 6 + 12 + 9 (Cu27), 6 + 12 + 10 (Cu28), 8 + 13 + 8 (Cu29), 7 + 13 + 9 (Cu29), 8 + 14 + 8 (Cu30), 7 + 14 + 9 (Cu30), 8 + 14 + 9 (Cu31), 8 + 14 + 10 (Cu32), and 9 + 14 + 10 (Cu33)-has been obtained and characterized by electrospray-ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), variable-temperature 1H NMR spectroscopy, and thermogravimetry. The X-ray crystal structure of Cu29 (8 + 13 + 8) is described. Cu32 and Cu33, which are the largest nanojars in this series, are observed for the first time. Despite extensive overlap at a given temperature, monitoring the temperature-dependent variation of paramagnetically shifted pyrazole and OH proton signals in 60 different 1H NMR spectra over a temperature range of 25-150 °C and a chemical shift range from 41 ppm to -59 ppm permits the assignment of individual protons in six different sulfate nanojars in a mixture. As opposed to ESI-MS, which only provides the size of nanojars, 1H NMR offers additional information about their detailed composition. Thus, nanojars such as Cu29 (8 + 13 + 8) and Cu29 (7 + 13 + 9) can easily be differentiated in solution. High-temperature solution studies unveil a significant difference in the thermal stability of nanojars of different sizes obtained under kinetic control at ambient temperature, and aid in predicting the structure of the Cu33 nanojar, as well as in explaining the absence of the Cu11 ring from the Cu6-Cu14 series. Anion exchange studies using sulfate and carbonate reveal that, although each anion is thermodynamically preferred by a nanojar of a certain size, the exchange of an already incarcerated anion is hampered by a substantial kinetic barrier. The remarkably strong binding of anions by nanojars allows for the extraction of highly hydrophilic anions, such as sulfate and carbonate, from water into organic solvents, despite their very large hydration energies.

Abstract
C3v-Symmetric anion receptors 3 and 4 with urethane groups were synthesized by using trindane triol as tripodal molecular framework. In (1)H NMR titration study, the receptors showed noticeable downfield shift/disappearance of the urethane-NH peak in presence of H2PO4(-) and F(-) due to the host-guest complexation occurred through multiple hydrogen bonding and/or the deprotonation of urethane-NH groups. Other tested anions such as Cl(-), Br(-), HSO4(-), and NO3(-) showed either no or negligible chemical shift of the urethane groups. The deprotonation event in 4 allowed selective detection of F(-) by perceptible color change from colorless to yellowish-red with the appearance of a new charge transfer absorption band at 450 nm.

Abstract
The design and synthesis of tripodal ligands 1-3 based upon the N-methyl-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxamide platform appended with three aryl urea arms is reported. This ligand platform gives rise to highly preorganized structures and is ideally suited for binding SO4 (2-) and H2 PO4 (-) ions through multiple hydrogen-bonding interactions. The solid-state crystal structures of 1-3 with SO4 (2-) show the encapsulation of a single anion within a cage structure, whereas the crystal structure of 1 with H2 PO4 (-) showed that two anions are encapsulated. We further demonstrate that ligand 4, based on the same platform but consisting of two bis-urea moieties and a single ammonium moiety, also recognizes SO4 (2-) to form a self-assembled capsule with [4:4] SO4 (2-) :4 stoichiometry in which the anions are clustered within a cavity formed by the four ligands. This is the first example of a self-sorting self-assembled capsule where four tetrahedrally arranged SO4 (2-) ions are embedded within a hydrophobic cavity.

Abstract
The tandem PHD (plant homeodomain) fingers of the CHD4 (chromodomain helicase DNA-binding protein 4) ATPase are epigenetic readers that bind either unmodified histone H3 tails or H3K9me3 (histone H3 trimethylated at Lys⁹). This dual function is necessary for the transcriptional and chromatin remodelling activities of the NuRD (nucleosome remodelling and deacetylase) complex. In the present paper, we show that calixarene-based supramolecular hosts disrupt binding of the CHD4 PHD2 finger to H3K9me3, but do not affect the interaction of this protein with the H3K9me0 (unmodified histone H3) tail. A similar inhibitory effect, observed for the association of chromodomain of HP1γ (heterochromatin protein 1γ) with H3K9me3, points to a general mechanism of methyl-lysine caging by calixarenes and suggests a high potential for these compounds in biochemical applications. Immunofluorescence analysis reveals that the supramolecular agents induce changes in chromatin organization that are consistent with their binding to and disruption of H3K9me3 sites in living cells. The results of the present study suggest that the aromatic macrocyclic hosts can be used as a powerful new tool for characterizing methylation-driven epigenetic mechanisms.

Abstract
The synthesis of six small peptide anion receptors based on thiourea and squaramide recognition moieties is described. These new receptors bind to tetrahedral sulfate anions with remarkable affinity and selectivity in aqueous solution as shown by NMR spectroscopy. Molecular modelling suggests that selectivity is mediated by a hydrogen bond network incorporating the amide backbone protons in a manner similar to that found in the sulfate-binding protein.

Abstract
The synthesis and photophysical properties of four squaramide based fluorescent anion sensors (1-4) are described. These luminescent compounds showed selectivity for Cl(-) over various other anions with concomitant changes in both their UV/visible and fluorescence properties upon Cl(-) addition, attributed to initial H-bonding followed by NH deprotonation in the presence of excess Cl(-), signaled by a color change. The nature of the electron withdrawing aryl substituents is directly related to the H-bonding ability/acidity of the squaramide protons and can be used to tune the deprotonation behavior.

Abstract
New tripodal urea receptors demonstrate preferential binding of anions over competitive hydrogen bonding solvents. 1H NMR titrations in 10% DMSO-d 6/CDCl3 show a higher affinity for nitrate over the halides for the fluorinated receptor, which is lost when the fluorines are removed. An “anion–π” interaction between the nitrate and the π-system of the ethynyl-substituted arene is proposed as the source of this selectivity.

Abstract
Three ferrocenyl-functionalized tripodal hexaurea anion receptors with ortho- (L(2)), meta- (L(3)), and para-phenylene (L(4)) bridges, which showed strong binding affinities toward sulfate ions, have been designed and synthesized. In particular, meta-phenylene-bridged ligand L(3), owing to its trigonal bipyramidal structure, can encapsulate two SO4(2-) ions in its "inner" and "outer" tripodal clefts, respectively, as supported by their clearly distinct NMR resonances and by molecular modeling. The sulfate complex of ortho-ligand L(2), (TBA)2[SO4⊂L(2)]·2H2O (1), displays a caged tetrahedral structure with an encapsulated sulfate ion that is hydrogen bonded by the six urea groups of ligand L(2). CV studies showed two types of electrochemical response of the ferrocene/ferrocenium redox couple upon anion binding, that is, a shift of the wave and the appearance of a new peak. Quantitative binding data were obtained from the NMR and CV titrations.
