Abstract
We describe here the utilization of 1,4-naphthoquinone and 3-iodo-1,4-naphthoquinone motifs as new
anion binding sites by hydrogen- or halogen-bonding interactions, respectively. These binding sites
have been integrated in bidentate ester based receptors. Emission experiments reveal that both receptors
selectively recognize sulfate anions, which induced a remarkable increase of a new emission band
attributed to the formation of π-stacking interactions between two 1,4-naphthoquinone units.
Absorption spectroscopy and mass spectrometry indicate the disruption of the ester group of the 1,4-
naphthoquinone based receptor in the presence of HP2O7
3−, H2PO4−, F−, AcO− and C6H5CO2− and in
the halogenated receptor with HP2O7
3−, F− and AcO− anions, while the presence of sulfate anions
showed the clasical complexation behaviour. The 1H-NMR experiment showed a slow exchange
process of the receptors with their sulfate complexes. The binding mode of the receptors with sulfate
has been studied by DFT calculations along with the Molecular Electrostatic Potential (MEP) surface
computational tool that reveals those parts of the receptors which are more suitable for interacting with
anions.
