Encapsulation of alkyldiammonium ions within two different cavities of twisted cucurbit[14]uril

Abstract

Binding interactions between twisted cucurbit[14]uril (tQ[14]) and a series of alkyldiammonium ions both in aqueous solution and DMSO media were investigated by NMR spectroscopy and ITC. Experimental data indicate that tQ[14] possesses two kinds of cavities with different space environments, which can encapsulate two or even three guest molecules with suitable shape and size.
