Two pyrene-based cagearene constitutional isomers: synthesis, separation, and host–guest chemistry†
Abstract
Herein we successfully synthesize two pyrene-based cagearene constitutional isomers and achieve their separation based on their different crystallization rates. Moreover, the optical properties and host–guest chemistry of these two isomers are investigated.
