Here we propose a new parameter, the Expanding Coefficient (EC), that can be correlated with the thermodynamic stability of supramolecular complexes governed by weak secondary interactions and obeying the induced-fit model. The EC values show a good linear relationship with the log Kapp of the respective pseudorotaxane complexes investigated. According to Cram's Principle of Preorganization, the EC can be considered an approximate mechanical measure of the host's reorganization energy cost upon adopting the final bound geometry.

Enzymatic catalysis is largely based on intramolecular cooperativity between a metal center and functional organic molecules located on one scaffold. Inspired by this concept we have designed the metallopeptoid trimer BT, which is a unique intramolecular cooperative oxidation catalyst incorporating two catalytic centers, phenanthroline-copper and TEMPO, as well as one non-catalytic benzyl group. Herein we explore the capability of BT to act as an efficient catalyst for the oxidative synthesis of imines, which are versatile intermediates in the fine chemicals and pharmaceutical industries. We demonstrate that BT, combined with CuI, can catalyze the production of benzyl, aryl, heteroaryl, allylic and aliphatic imines from various alcohols and amines with a turn-over-number up to 45 times higher than this achieved when phenanthroline, copper and TEMPO are mixed in solution. Moreover, in low catalyst(s) loading, BT enables transformations that are not possible when a mixture of the individual catalysts is employed.

Aerobic amine oxidation is an attractive and elegant process for the α functionalization of amines. However, there are still several mechanistic uncertainties, particularly the factors governing the regioselectivity of the oxidation of asymmetric secondary amines and the oxidation rates of mixed primary amines. Herein, it is reported that singlet-oxygen-mediated oxidation of 1° and 2° amines is sensitive to the strength of the α-C-H bond and steric factors. Estimation of the relative bond dissociation energy by natural bond order analysis or by means of one-bond C-H coupling constants allowed the regioselectivity of secondary amine oxidations to be explained and predicted. In addition, the findings were utilized to synthesize highly regioselective substrates and perform selective amine cross-couplings to produce imines.
