Abstract
In an approach to helical self-aggregation, C-2-symmetric cavity compounds based on the fusion of the bicyclo[3.3.1] nonane and indole framework and incorporating two 2-pyridone hydrogen-bonding motifs, compounds (-)-4 (pyrrole N-butyl) and (-)-5 (pyrrole N-decyl), have been synthesized. The 2-pyridone AD-DA hydrogen-bonding motif failed to operate in the solid state as demonstrated by X-ray diffraction analysis of (-)-4. Instead, the hydrogen- bonded (D-A) chains center dot center dot center dot O=C-N-H center dot center dot center dot O=C-N-H center dot center dot center dot O=C-N-H center dot center dot center dot, interconnecting columnar stacks, comprise helices of the right-handed (P) chirality motif. In solution, the aggregation of... (More)

In solution, the aggregation of (-)-5 was studied by NMR, electronic, and CD spectroscopies, and VPO measurements. These investigations strongly suggest that (-)-5 associates to oligomers in CHCl3 and CH2Cl2 using the 2-pyridone motif, fitting the equal K model, and that pi-stacking can be ruled out as a mode of aggregation. We conclude that the so formed aggregates of (-)-5 have a helical structure, based on the fact that only helical tubular structures can result when enantiomerically pure 5 uses its 2-pyridone AD-DA hydrogenbonding motifs for aggregation.
