Molecular Space Chemistry Based on Pillar[n]arenes

Abstract

In 2008, our group reported on pillar[n]arenes as novel-shaped macrocyclic compounds. Owing to the para-bridge connection between 1,4-dialkoxybenzene units, pillar[n]arenes adopt a highly symmetrical pillar and polygonal-shaped structure, which is different from typical host molecules. Because pillar[n]arenes exhibit these highly symmetrical structures with high functionality, many chemists have used pillar[n]arenes as building blocks to construct supramolecular assemblies. Therefore, pillar[n]arenes have applications in various fields such as material science and biochemistry. We discuss the host–guest ability of pillar[n]arenes, application of pillar[5]arenes as catalysts and reductants, and assembly of pillar[n]arenes on surfaces based on their pillar-shaped structures. The highly ordered assembled structures, based on their highly symmetrical polygonal prism shape, are also discussed.
