Multiple-responsive supramolecular vesicles have been successfully fabricated by the complexation between β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and a pH/photo dual-responsive amphiphile 4-(4-(hexyloxy)phenylazo)benzoate sodium (HPB) with azobenzene and carboxylate groups. When mixing β-CD with HPB to reach a host/guest molar ratio of 1 : 1, the azobenzene group of HPB could be spontaneously included by β-CD molecules. Then, the formed inclusion complexes (HPB@β-CD) could self-assemble into vesicles, which was driven by the hydrophobic interaction of the alkyl chain of HPB and the hydrogen bonds between neighboring β-CDs. The reversible assembly/disassembly of the vesicles could be simply regulated under UV or visible light irradiation. The reversible phase transformation between vesicles and microbelts could also be realized by adjusting the pH values of the sample. Adding both competitive guest molecules (1-adamantane carboxylic acid sodium (ADA)) and α-amylase would result in the phase transformation from vesicles to micelles. Moreover, the vesicles would be destroyed when β-CD was continuously added until the ratio of host/guest reached 2 : 1. Such an interesting quintuple-responsive vesicle system reported here not only has potential applications in various fields such as controlled release or drug delivery, but also provides a reference for the design and construction of multiple responsive systems.A quintuple-responsive vesicle system was successfully fabricated by simply mixing HPB with an equal amount of β-CD. 相似文献

A facile fabrication of spherical vesicles and micelles by acyclic diene metathesis (ADMET) polymerization and alternative metathesis polymerization (ALTMET) was investigated. We utilize fluorine (FL) and perylene diimide-based (PDI) α,ω-dienes and α,ω-diacrylates to provide a series of homopolymers and alternating copolymers. When using α,ω-dienes as model monomers, TEM measurement indicates that the aromatic FL and PDI building block induced polymers to generate medium-sized (30–50 nm and 90–120 nm, respectively) micelles and vesicles. It was amazing that alternating copolymers derived from PDI α,ω-dienes and FL α,ω-diacrylates spontaneously form giant vesicles with sizes in the range of 0.7 μm to 2.5 μm. The controlled self-assembly of the organic polymer mediated by ADMET and ALTMET techniques avoided extremely annoying post treatment. Therefore, this work establishes a new, versatile synthetic strategy to create nanoparticles having tunable morphologies with potential application as molecular payload delivery vehicles.Fluorine (FL) and perylene diimide-based (PDI) α,ω-dienes and α,ω-diacrylates were used to synthesise a series of homopolymers and alternating copolymers and provide spherical vesicles and micelles by metathesis polymerization. 相似文献

Herein, bromo-naphthol derivatives were synthesized to investigate the influence on their phosphorescence emission efficiency resulting from different binding models with cyclodextrins. And the results indicated that α-cyclodextrin could result in the highest phosphorescence emission efficiency, due to the tight encapsulation of the bromo-naphthol motif into the cavity.Bromo-naphthol derivatives were synthesized to form host–guest complexation with cyclodextrins with different cavity sizes for the investigation of binding model-mediated room-temperature phosphorescence efficiency.Organic room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials have received widespread attention in the past decades owing to their potential application in anticounterfeiting,1 biological imaging,2,3 and optoelectronic materials.4 However, the relatively low intersystem crossing efficiency from singlet state to the triplet state and quenching of the triplet state by external oxygen and water traditionally make it difficult to obtain the RTP materials.5–8 Therefore, to realize the RTP materials, much effort should be devoted on the enhancement of the intersystem crossing efficiency and shielding from the oxygen and water in the environment. Along with this line, variant methods have been developed, such as polymer matrix,9–11 crystallization,12,13 H-aggregation,14 and noncovalent interactions,15–17 especially the host-guest interaction,18–20 which could provide a relatively enclosed environment to stabilize the excited state of the organic molecules and shield them from the external substance. Even though there are many outstanding systems constructed by cucurbituril (CB)21,22 and cyclodextrin (CD),23,24 little research has been conducted to investigate the influence resulting from their binding model.CD, as a kind of macrocyclic molecule, has been widely investigated in the fabrication of functional materials.25 Moreover, due to the hydrophobic cavities in this kind of macrocyclic molecule, the phosphors could be shielded from the external environment, and many RTP systems have been successfully constructed.26–28 However, there are three kinds of CDs with different cavity sizes, which exhibit different binding affinities to the guest molecules. To the best of our knowledge, little research has been conducted to exploit the effects caused by their binding models on the RTP materials. Herein, two bromo-naphthol derivatives (4C and 6C) were synthesized to form host–guest complexation with α-CD, β-CD, and γ-CD (Scheme 1). Due to the different cavity size of these three host molecules, their binding models with bromo-naphthol derivatives were different, resulting in the different RTP properties. The α-CD could partially encapsulate the bromo-substituent motif, resulting in the highest phosphorescence quantum yield, as well as the longest phosphorescence lifetime. This research on tuning the RTP properties of phosphors by the binding models could provide a general guidance in the design of highly efficient RTP materials.Open in a separate windowScheme 1Schematic illustration of cyclodextrin-mediated RTP.The guest molecules of 4C and 6C were successfully synthesized according to synthesis route provided in the ESI† (Scheme S1 and S2, ESI†). Firstly, their host–guest properties with cyclodextrins were investigated by the 1H NMR spectroscopy. As shown in Fig. 1, the protons H1-6 of the aromatic groups in 4C exhibited obvious shift after the addition of cyclodextrins. Interestingly, different change of the chemical-shift was observed upon the addition of α-CD, β-CD, and γ-CD. The protons showed downfield-shift in the presence of α-CD and β-CD, and the broaden effect could be observed in the presence of α-CD, which might result from the relatively small size of α-CD, leading to the tight encapsulation of 4C into its cavity. And the protons exhibited the upfield-shift upon the addition of γ-CD, which might be caused by the π⋯π stacking interaction in the formed ternary host-guest complex. Moreover, 2D NOESY spectroscopy was employed to further investigate the binding models between 4C and cyclodextrins. As shown in Fig. S8† in the ESI,† the corresponding peaks assigned H1-3 on 4C and Hc on the α-CD were obviously observed, indicating partial aromatic ring was encapsulated into the cavity of α-CD. And the signals between H1-6 on 4C and Hc and He on the β-CD could be observed, indicating the aromatic ring was totally encapsulated into the cavity of β-CD (Fig. S9, ESI†). However, the observed signals assigned to H2,3,6 on 4C and Cc on γ-CD indicated the inclusion 4C into the cavity of γ-CD (Fig. S10, ESI†), and the signals between H2 and H4 indicated the π⋯π stacking interaction between the aromatic rings. These results were consistent with the previous conclusions. Also similar phenomena could be observed in the systems of the compound 6C and cyclodextrins with different cavity sizes (Fig. S7, ESI†). And the 2D NOESY spectra of 6C⊂α-CD, 6C⊂β-CD, and 6C⊂γ-CD also provided the same binding models between 6C and different cyclodextrins with cavity size.Open in a separate windowFig. 1 1H NMR (400 MHz, D2O, 298 K) spectra of 4C (a) after adding 1.0 equivalent α-CD (b), β-CD (c), and γ-CD (d). ([4C] = [α-CD] = [β-CD] = [γ-CD] = 2 mM).Following, the binding stoichiometries between the 4C and cyclodextrins were measured by Job''s plot method using 1H NMR spectroscopy. As shown in Fig. S14 in the ESI,† it could be concluded the 1 : 1 binding ratio was determined between 4C and α-CD. Moreover, the binding stoichiometry between 4C and β-CD or γ-CD was determined to be 1 : 1 or 2 : 1 (Fig. S15 and S16, ESI†), respectively. To determine the binding constants, titration experiments were carried out in aqueous solution containing constant concentration of 4C (2 mM) and varying concentration of cyclodextrins respectively. And the binding constants were calculated to be (2.3 ± 0.45) × 103 M−1 for 4C between α-CD (Fig. S17, ESI†), (2.8 ± 0.84) × 103 M−1 for 4C between β-CD (Fig. S18, ESI†), and (2.7 ± 0.39) × 102 M−1 and (3.2 ± 0.72) × 103 M−1 for 4C between γ-CD (Fig. S19, ESI†). Also due to the main difference between 4C and 6C was the length of alkyl chain, the binding sites between the 6C and cyclodextrins couldn''t be affected, which was also certificated by the 1H NMR and 2D NOESY spectra (Fig. S7, S11, S12, and S13, ESI†) between 6C and CDs (α-CD, β-CD and γ-CD), the binding stoichiometries and constants between 6C and CDs were similar with the above results.From the above results, it could be concluded the compound 4C could form the host–guest complexation with cyclodextrins, and due to the different size of the cavities, the binding models were different, which might result in different photoluminescence properties. Firstly, the UV-vis spectra of 4C in the absence or presence of cyclodextrins were recorded in Fig. 2a, from which the obvious increase in the absorption intensity could be observed, indicating the formation of host–guest complexation could affect its photoluminescence properties. Moreover, the decrease of the absorption intensity at 265 and 272 nm, and the increase in the intensity at 345 nm could be observed in the presence of γ-CD (Fig. S20, ESI†), indicating the tightly stacking occurred between the aromatic rings of 4C, which was consistent with the previous 2D NOSEY spectroscopy results.Open in a separate windowFig. 2(a) UV-vis spectral changes in the aqueous solution of 4C (1.5 × 10−3 mM) upon adding equivalent α-CD and β-CD. (b) Solid state phosphorescence spectral changes of 4C, n4C:nα-CD = 1 : 1, n4C:nβ-CD = 1 : 1 and n4C:nγ-CD = 1 : 1 (Ex: 280 nm, 298 K).

This result also further certificated by the determination of its luminescence lifetime, from the decay curve, its lifetime was determined to be 0.77 ns. However, the addition of cyclodextrins could result in the appearance of the new emission peaks at 518 nm and 548 nm, and the average lifetimes at both 518 nm and 548 nm remarkably improved, indicating the formation of host–guest complexation could stabilize the triplet of 4C (†). This observation was also consistent with the photographs obtained under the UV light irradiation (365 nm). As shown in Fig. 2c, the solid of 4C emitted the violet luminescence, and the yellow luminescence could be observed from 4C⊂α-CD. However, the yellow luminescence was remarkably reduced in the complexation of 4C⊂β-CD, and 4C⊂γ-CD. This observation was also consistent with the previous results, the addition of α-CD could remarkably improve the phosphorescence intensity. Moreover, their quantum yields of luminescence were further determined.
