Abstract

The complexation of neutral 1,4-dihalobutanes with simple pillar[5]arenes was investigated. The results indicate the formation of interpenetrated complexes, where the dispersive interactions dominate the complex stability. Typically, 1,4-diiodobutane displays the strongest binding strength with ethylpillar[5]arene [Ka = (1.0 ± 0.1) × 104 M−1], up to 120 fold as compared with 1,4-difluorobutane.
