Effects of side arm length and structure of para-substituted phenyl derivatives on their binding to the host cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene)

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/jo9610321

The binding constants with the host cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene), 14⁺, have been determined in CH₃CN by UV-vis spectrophotometry for a series of p-phenylene guests, symmetrically substituted with side arms of varying length and fun
