Selective recognition and extraction of arsenate by a urea-functionalized tripodal receptor from competitive aqueous media

Abstract

A second-generation hydrogen bond donor (HBD) anion receptor with an inner amide cavity and an outer urea cavity can selectively and efficiently extract arsenate (AsO43−) from water in the presence of competitive oxoanions and halides. The X-ray structure showed encapsulation of AsO43− in a π-stacked dimeric capsular assembly of the receptor, the first crystallography-based example of pentavalent AsO43− trianion recognition by a HBD receptor.
