Popis: | Molecular recognitions of medium size lactones by enclathration of cholic acid (CA) are described. Size and location of the substituents on the lactone rings play an important role for enclathration. Lactones within the limited steric dimensions are included in CA, and larger or smaller ones are not included to give guest-free crystals of CA. Moreover, CA partially separates one enantiomer from racemic lactones by recystallization. X-ray crystallographic studies reveal that all included lactones form the β-trans type bilayer structure having a pentagonal void channel with a side pocket. The cross-sections illustrate that the lactone rings are incorporated in the center of the channel and that the substituents of the guests are fixed in the side pockets. The asymmetric channel enables CA to discriminate size and chirality of medium size lactones. |
