Abstract
Abstract 2,2,4,4,6,6-Hexakis(4-pyridylmethoxy)-2λ5,4λ5,6λ5,-cyclotriphosphazene (PyPN) and 1,4-anthracenedicarboxylic acid (DCA) formed polymeric supramolecules through hydrogen bonding between carboxyl and pyridyl groups. Two supramolecular self-assemblies were obtained: crystals 1 composed of PyPN/DCA = 1 : 2 from DMSO solution, and crystals 2 composed of PyPN/DCA = 1 : 3 from DMF solution. The former is monoclinic, space group P21/n with a = 12.419 Å, b = 24.10 Å, c = 20.794 Å, β = 93.53°, V = 6212 Å3, Z = 4. The X-ray analysis showed that the complementary hydrogen bonding occurs with two DCA molecules, one on each side of the phosphazene ring of PyPN, to give a novel assembly with polymeric structure. The self-assembly obtained from DMF solution seems to take a cylindrical structure composed of an alternating sequence of one PyPN and three DCA molecules and to be packed into a hexagonal arrangement, as suggested by X-ray diffraction data. These results and the inclusion behaviors of the solvent molecules into 1 and 2 are described.
