Abstract

AbstractA series of squaramide‐based heteroditopic [2]rotaxanes consisting of isophthalamide macrocycle and squaramide axle components are synthesized using an alkali metal cation template‐directed stoppering methodology. This work highlights the unprecedented sodium cation template coordination of the Lewis basic squaramide carbonyls for interlocked structure synthesis. Extensive quantitative 1H NMR spectroscopic anion and ion‐pair recognition studies reveal the [2]rotaxane hosts are capable of cooperative sodium halide ion‐pair mechanical bond axle‐macrocycle component recognition, eliciting up to 20‐fold enhancements in binding strengths for bromide and iodide, wherein the Lewis basic carbonyls and Lewis acidic NH hydrogen bond donors of the squaramide axle motif operate as cation and anion receptive sites simultaneously in an ambidentate fashion. Notably, varying the length and nature of the polyether cation binding unit of the macrocycle component dramatically influences the ion‐pair binding affinities of the [2]rotaxanes, even overcoming direct contact NaCl ion‐pair binding modes in polar organic solvents. Furthermore, the cooperative ion‐pair binding properties of the squaramide‐based heteroditopic [2]rotaxanes are exploited to successfully extract solid sodium halide salts into organic media.
