In this study, molecular tweezers for fullerene recognition were developed based on 2,2 '-bipyridine-bearing corannulene motifs, allowing for selective syn or anti confirmation through Cu(i) coordination/decoordination. This control mechanism enables effective metal-triggered ON/OFF molecular tweezers for fullerene recognition.
Herein, we report molecular tweezers for fullerene recognition based on 2,2 '-bipyridine-bearing corannulene motifs. The syn or anti confirmation can be selected simply by Cu(i) coordination/decoordination, thus controlling the fullerene recognition capability of the system on demand and leading to the formation of effective metal-triggered ON/OFF molecular tweezers.
