Abstract
The translational diffusion coefficients of various helicates have been determined by using NMR diffusion spectroscopy (Diffusion Ordered SpectroscopY, DOSY), in order to investigate the individual behaviour of the helicates according to their length (different nuclearities; 1-5 metals), to the nature of the metal involved (CuI or AgI), as well to their bulkiness due to the presence of substituents on the periphery of the assembly. Furthermore, the spectrum of a mixture of helicates belonging to the same series, but with different lengths and nuclearities, showed the signals of each component, with no observable cross-linking, confirming the self-recognition properties of the helicates.
