[reaction: see text] Bisvelcrand 3 based on resorcin[4]arene was obtained by a stepwise route, and the formation of oligobisvelcraplex 3(n) by solvophobic pi-pistacking interaction was observed. (1)H NMR spectroscopic studies revealed that DeltaG(++)(pseudorotation) of oligobisvelcraplex 3(n) is 16.7 kcal mol(-1) in C(6)D(5)NO(2) solution. The pulsed field gradient spin-echo (PGSE) NMR experiment and VPO experiment showed that the number of aggregation (n) ranges from 7 to 10 in CHCl(3) solution at 298 K. In high concentration, bisvelcrand 3 tends to form gels or fiber.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
