Encapsulation of cationic ruthenium complexes into a chiral self-assembled cage

Abstract

A chiral supramolecular assembly encapsulates the two cationic ruthenium sandwich complexes [CpRu(eta(6)-C(6)H(6))](+) and [CpRu(p-cymene)](+). The host-guest complexes K(11)[CpRu(eta(6)-C(6)H(6)) subset Ga(4)L(6)] (2) and K(11)[CpRu(p-cymene) subset Ga(4)L(6)] (3) were characterized by one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques as well as by electrospray mass spectrometry. Encapsulation of the prochiral complex [CpRu(p-cymene)](+) by the chiral host renders enantiotopic protons diastereotopic as evidenced by (1)H NMR spectroscopy.
