INCORPORATION OF COMPLEX MOLECULES AND SUPRAMOLECULAR STRUCTURES INTO METAL-ORGANIC FRAMEWORKS

In this thesis, three different supramolecular frameworks will be described. The first is a novel naphthalene diimide (NDI) metal-organic framework-based, flexible, nanotube structure. The crystal structure is reported and described. The structure was spectroscopically probed to investigate the fo...

description In this thesis, three different supramolecular frameworks will be described. The first is a novel naphthalene diimide (NDI) metal-organic framework-based, flexible, nanotube structure. The crystal structure is reported and described. The structure was spectroscopically probed to investigate the formation of an NDI radical upon exposure to UV/Visible radiation and investigated by Raman spectroscopy to measure chemical changes upon mechanical bending of the nanotubes. In the second section, two tetra-acid rotaxanes, TAR4 and TAR8 are synthesised and analysed by proton NMR and the single X-ray crystal of the former, is detailed. Once synthesised, attempts were made to incorporate these into metal-organic frameworks motifs through several methods. Two other diacid rotaxane syntheses were also started and the preliminary reactions to form them detailed. The final chapter details the synthesis of a naphthalene diimide/porphyrin [2]handcuff rotaxane; which was planned and started, with these discussed.
