Abstract
The components of a 1:2 mixture of meso-tetrakis(4-dodecyl-3,5-dihydroxyphenyl)porphyrin (1) and a bowl-shaped tetrakis(4-pyridylethynyl)cavitand (2) in CDCl3 or C6 D6 self-assemble quantitatively into the doubly cavitand-capped porphyrin capsule 2⋅1⋅2 through eight ArOH⋅⋅⋅Npy hydrogen bonds. Capsule 2⋅1⋅2 possesses two cavities divided by the porphyrin ring and encapsulates two molecules of 1-acetoxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzene (G) as a guest to form G/G@(2⋅1⋅2). Remarkable solvent effect was observed, in which the apparent association constant of 2⋅1⋅2 with G in C6 D6 was much greater than that in CDCl3.
