Rim-Based Binding of Perfluorinated Acids to Pillararenes Purifies Water. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202403474. [PMID: 38506404 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202403474] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024]
Abstract
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) pose a rapidly increasing global problem as their widespread use and high stability lead worldwide to water contamination, with significant detrimental health effects.[1] Supramolecular chemistry has been invoked to develop materials geared towards the specific capture of PFAS from water,[2] to reduce the concentration below advisory safety limits (e.g., 70 ng/L for the sum of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid, PFOS and perfluorooctanoic acid, PFOA). Scale-up and use in natural waters with high PFAS concentrations has hitherto posed a problem. Here we report a new type of host-guest interaction between deca-ammonium-functionalized pillar[5]arenes (DAF-P5s) and perfluoroalkyl acids. DAF-P5 complexes show an unprecedented 1 : 10 stoichiometry, as confirmed by isothermal calorimetry and X-ray crystallographic studies, and high binding constants (up to 106 M-1) to various polyfluoroalkyl acids. In addition, non-fluorinated acids do not hamper this process significantly. Immobilization of DAF-P5s allows a simple single-time filtration of PFAS-contaminated water to reduce the PFOS/PFOA concentration 106 times to 15-50 ng/L level. The effective and fast (<5 min) orthogonal binding to organic molecules without involvement of fluorinated supramolecular hosts, high breakthrough capacity (90 mg/g), and robust performance (>10 regeneration cycles without decrease in performance) set a new benchmark in PFAS-absorbing materials.

[PMID: 34204914 PMCID: PMC8199762 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22116038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2021] [Revised: 05/31/2021] [Accepted: 05/31/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
In this paper, we report the development of the novel self-assembling systems based on oppositely charged Pillar[5]arenes and surfactants for encapsulation of diagnostic dye DAPI. For this purpose, the aggregation behavior of synthesized macrocycles and surfactants in the presence of Pillar[5]arenes functionalized by carboxy and ammonium terminal groups was studied. It has been demonstrated that by varying the molar ratio in Pillar[5]arene-surfactant systems, it is possible to obtain various types of supramolecular systems: host-guest complexes at equimolar ratio of Pillar[5]arene-surfactant and interpolyelectrolyte complexes (IPECs) are self-assembled materials formed in aqueous medium by two oppositely charged polyelectrolytes (macrocycle and surfactant micelles). It has been suggested that interaction of Pillar[5]arenes with surfactants is predominantly driven by cooperative electrostatic interactions. Synthesized stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric IPECs specifically interact with DAPI. UV-vis, luminescent spectroscopy and molecular docking data show the structural feature of dye-loaded IPEC and key role of the electrostatic, π-π-stacking, cation-π interactions in their formation. Such a strategy for the design of supramolecular Pillar[5]arene-surfactant systems will lead to a synergistic interaction of the two components and will allow specific interaction with the third component (drug or fluorescent tag), which will certainly be in demand in pharmaceuticals and biomedical diagnostics.

Abstract
The many useful features possessed by pillararenes (PAs; e.g. rigid, capacious, and hydrophobic cavities, as well as exposed functional groups) have led to a tremendous increase in their popularity since their first discovery in 2008. In this Minireview, we emphasize the use of functionalized PAs and their assembled supramolecular materials in the field of catalysis. We aim to provide a fundamental understanding and mechanism of the role PAs play in catalytic process. The topics are subdivided into catalysis promoted by the PA rim/cavity, PA-based nanomaterials, and PA-based polymeric materials. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first overview on PA-based catalysis. This Minireview not only summarizes the fabrications and applications of PAs in catalysis but also anticipates future research efforts in applying supramolecular hosts in catalysis.

Abstract
Supramolecular dynamic studies provide the most direct information to elucidate the binding mechanisms of the systems and yet are underdeveloped in pillararene chemistry. Herein, we describe the first real-time study on the binding dynamics of a water-soluble per-substituted pillar[5]arene (H1) with pentanesulfonate (G1) and butane-1,4-disulfonate (G2). Both the host-guest complexes were formed via a two-step process. The first step, equilibrated within 1 ms for both guests, was associated with the formation of a 1:1 exclusion complex, and the second step was the conversion of this exclusion complex to the inclusion complex. Threading and dethreading processes in the second step for G2 were at least a million times slower than for G1. Kinetics results reveal that for H1, complexation with a charged guest may follow the same "two-step" mechanism regardless of the number of charged moieties in the guests and the rate of the complexation. This study may advance the mechanistic understanding necessary for further development of functional supramolecular systems.
