Cucurbit[10]uril (Q[10]), the cucurbit [n]uril with a large cavity, exhibits several new features in the development of the host-guest complex. Thus, based on Q[10] and πconjugated molecule, oligo(p-phenylenevinylene) derivative (OPVCOOH), the host-guest complexes with three different interaction ratios of 1 : 2, 2 : 2, and 3 : 2 assemblies (Q[10]: guest) were fabricated. Depending on the host/guest ratio, the emission color of these complexes ranged from blue to yellow-green. The extra Fe 2 + coordinated with a bare carboxyl group of the Q[10]-OPVCOOH (3 : 2) assembly, obstructing its rotaxane structure and forming Q[10]-OPV-COOH-Fe 2 + assembly, which may be used as a coating for near-white LED bulbs.
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.
