Abstract
Herein,a novel molecular tweezer based on 2,2'-bipyridine-bridged porphyrin subunits was constructed for efficient fullerenes recognition.The syn conformation of the molecule,which was obtained by Zn(Ⅱ)coordination,gives rise to a proper cavity to interact with fullerene guests to form a stable 1:1 complex in toluene solution.It exhibits distinct binding selectivity towards C60 over C70.Moreover,the fullerene recognition capacity can be adequately suppressed by importing H2PO4-to competitively capture Zn(Ⅱ)along with syn-anti conformational conversion.Subsequently,the molecular tweezer regenerated to bind the fullerene by introducing the Ca2+into the system.Significantly,the association-disassociation process can be switched reversibly and repeatedly.
