Abstract
AbstractNew hemicryptophane compounds combining a cyclotriveratrylene (CTV) unit, three binaphthol moieties in the linkers and closed by a simple benzene unit have been synthesized enantiomerically and diastereomerically pure. Assignment of their absolute configuration was achieved by chemical correlation. These closed shell host compounds were then tested in the recognition of carbohydrates and compared with their open‐shell counterparts. Closing the molecular cage induces a slight drop in affinity, associated with an improvement in the stereoselectivity of the recognition process, probably related to the higher preorganization of the cage compounds.
