Photoinduced guest transformation promotes translocation of guest from hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin to cucurbit[7]uril.

We report that three-component systems comprising styryl dyes (1 or 2) and two hosts (hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) and cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7])) undergo photoinduced transformation and translocation of the styryl guest from the cavity of HP-β-CD to CB[7]. We find that the protonation of guest trans-1 or the addition of Ba(2+) as competitor for CB[7] triggers dissociation of the contain...

Cucurbit[7]uril assisted ultraviolet to visible fluorescence switch of a heart medicine.

Host-guest interactions between cucurbit[7]uril (CB7) and a cardiotonic drug, milrinone, have been explored using steady state and pico-second time-resolved techniques. A novel fluorescence switch from ultraviolet (UV) to visible (cyan) is observed as a consequence of upward pKa shift of the drug inside the nano-cavity of cucurbit[7]uril.

Study on the Application of Cucurbit[6]uril as a Nanoporous Adsorbent for the Removal of 2,4-Dinitrophenol from Wastewaters

In the present study, cucurbit[6]uril was used as a nonporous adsorbent for the removal of 2,4-dinitrophenol from aqueous solutions. The experiments were carried out in a batch system to optimize operation variables such as pH of solution, contact time, adsorbent dose and salt concentration. Langmuir, Freundlich and Tempkin isotherms were applied for the explanation of experimental data. The hi...

Supramolecular logic with macrocyclic input and competitive reset.

The fluorescence of a designed water-soluble 4-sulfonato-1,8-naphthalimide dye can be switched on by the synchronous host-guest complexation with cucurbit[7]uril and decrease in pH (from 9 to 7). This affords a dual resettable (by addition of cadaverine as competitor or by deprotonation) logic gate based on modulation of photoinduced electron transfer.

Red emitting, cucurbituril-capped, pH-responsive conjugated oligomer-based nanoparticles for drug delivery and cellular imaging.

Here we report the synthesis of nanoparticles based on a conjugated oligomer which is synthesized through Heck-coupling of divinylfluorene and dibromobenzothiodiazole monomers. These water dispersible nanoparticles emit in the region of red tailing to the near-infrared region of the spectrum with high fluorescent quantum yield and brightness. The nanoparticles were found to be stable in water f...
