ABSTRACT
π-π interactions are among the most important intermolecular interactions in supramolecular systems. Here we determine experimentally a universal parameter for their strength that is simply based on the size of the interacting contact surfaces. Toward this goal we designed a new cyclophane based on terrylene bisimide (TBI) π-walls connected by para-xylylene spacer units. With its extended π-surface this cyclophane proved to be an excellent and universal host for the complexation of π-conjugated guests, including small and large polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as well as dye molecules. The observed binding constants range up to 108â
M-1 and show a linear dependence on the 2D area size of the guest molecules. This correlation can be used for the prediction of binding constants and for the design of new host-guest systems based on the herewith derived universal Gibbs interaction energy parameter of 0.31â
kJ/molÅ2 in chloroform.
