Control by one drop of solvent: selective preparation of guest release/trap-triggered interconvertible molecular crystals
Interconvertible molecular crystals 1 close and 1 open composed of 4-pyridyl-1,3-indanedione dimer 1 were selectively obtained. Thermal removal of solvent molecules in 1 open afforded 1 close . Further dipping of 1 close in a specific solvent reproduced 1 open . No crystallinity loss was observed ev...

Zusammenfassung: | Interconvertible molecular crystals
1
close
and
1
open
composed of 4-pyridyl-1,3-indanedione dimer
1
were selectively obtained. Thermal removal of solvent molecules in
1
open
afforded
1
close
. Further dipping of
1
close
in a specific solvent reproduced
1
open
. No crystallinity loss was observed even though both processes involved a drastic change of molecular packing arrangements.
The selective preparation of two molecular crystals of the 4-pyridyl-1,3-indanedione dimer, which are interconvertible by guest trapping/release, was achieved. |
