Definitions
- the present invention relates to macrocyclic compounds, and in particular to fluorinated cyclic corona[n] arenes.
- Macrocyclic compounds have many uses. For example, they can be used to provide a cavity for receiving molecules and they can be used in guest-host chemistry, polymerization chemistry, catalysis, and the like.
- Non-fluorinated cyclic corona[n] arenes are known in the art. These materials are valuable precursors for both synthetic and materials chemistry.
- JP 2012 072222 A describes a cyclic polyphenylene sulfide mixture, having the same general formula as shown above, but where the degree of polymerization is from 4-20. Further, it is required that the sum of the content of cyclic polyphenylene sulfide monomers with a degree of polymerization of 4, 6 and 8, respectively, is less than 15 wt.% relative to the sum of the total monomers. In addition, the content of cyclic polyphenylene sulfide monomer with a degree of polymerization of 5 must be not less than 15 wt.%, relative to the sum of the total monomers.
- R substituent is mentioned as being a carboxyl group or its ester, a cyano group, a sulfonic acid group, or a halogen atom; however no synthetic route to successfully obtain a fluorinated product is provided.
- the compounds of JPH05-301962 A are macrocycles with a single R-substituted Ar group present as the monomer.
- the monomer backbone that forms the macrocycle ring structure therefore only includes one type of aromatic group.
- the polymerisation of fluorine-containing arylthio ethers is also known, providing polymers such as: See, for example, WO2007/006300 A1; N. S. J. Christopher, J. L. Cotter, G. J. Knight, W. W.
- the present invention provides, in a first aspect, a macrocyclic compound of Formula (I): wherein each R 1 is independently an aromatic ring system that is optionally substituted, and wherein n is an integer of from 2 to 50.
- the compounds of the invention are therefore macrocycles with two aromatic ring systems present in each monomer.
- One characterising feature of the invention is the inclusion of two different aryls. Both the R 1 aromatic ring system and the fluorinated phenylene aromatic ring system are within the backbone of the monomer that forms the macrocycle (rather than being pendant therefrom). Therefore the monomer backbone that in turn forms the macrocycle ring structure includes both of these aromatic groups.
- the skilled reader will appreciate that the macrocyclic nature of the compound is represented by the solid curved line.
- this solid curved line represents a bond formed between an R 1 group and a sulphur atom attached to a para-positioned carbon atom of a fluorinated aromatic ring, to thereby form the macrocyclic structure.
- the macrocyclic compounds of the invention can be used in a variety of different applications. For example, they could be used as transport facilitators, synthetic templates (e.g., nanoreactors), or as electrically conductive materials. As such, the macrocyclic compounds of the invention can be used in different biological and/or chemical systems and even in energy storage devices. These compounds of the invention are valuable synthetic intermediates, e.g. for manipulation into other macrocyclic species.
- the displaceable fluorine substituents within the macrocyclic compounds of Formula (I) afford further valuable macrocyclic compounds by their (SNAr) displacement with suitable nucleophiles and other carbon-based and heteroatom nucleophiles.
- These compounds of the invention may be used as precursors for electronics molecules.
- the compounds can stack in a barrel-like arrays, giving the ability to create a 2D conductor.
- These compounds are also useful due to the cavity provided within the macrocyclic structure. For example, they may be used as sequestering agents, or they may be used as sensors whereby an agent to be detected binds inside the cavity.
- the macrocyclic compounds of the invention may further comprise an interlocked compound constrained within the cavity defined by the macrocycle.
- each R 1 is independently an aromatic ring system that is optionally substituted. In one embodiment each R 1 is the same. However, it will be recognised that Formula (I) also allows for the preparation of mixed systems, where the R 1 groups are different.
- the macrocyclic compound of the invention includes two or more different R 1 groups, such as two, three or four different R 1 groups.
- R 1 groups there may be two different R 1 groups, which can therefore be represented as follows: wherein R 1 ⁇ and R 1 ⁇ ⁇ are each an aromatic ring system that is optionally substituted, and wherein n ⁇ is an integer of from 1 to 49 and wherein n ⁇ ⁇ is an integer of from 1 to 49 and where n ⁇ +n ⁇ ⁇ is an integer of from 2 to 50.
- R 1 ⁇ and R 1 ⁇ ⁇ is an R 1 aromatic ring system and these groups can each independently follow the definitions and preferred embodiments as disclosed herein for the R 1 aromatic ring system.
- the R 1 aromatic ring system has from 5 to 18 ring members, such as from 5 to 12 ring members.
- the R 1 aromatic ring system may be a monocyclic ring (e.g. phenylene) or may be a fused ring, e.g. resulting from the condensation of multiple benzene rings or resulting from the condensation of benzene and other rings.
- the fused ring is formed from two or three rings.
- fused rings include a pentalene ring, indene ring, naphthalene ring, anthracene ring, azulene ring, biphenylene ring, indacene ring, acenaphthylene ring, fluorene ring, phenalene ring, and a phenanthrene ring.

- the multi- aryl monomer formed from alternating units may, for example, be (i)-(ii)-(i), or (i)-(ii)-(i)- (i)- (ii)-(i), or (i)-(ii)-(i)-(ii)-(i)-(i).
- the dithiol form of the R 1 aromatic ring system is preferably a para dithiol form, e.g. a 1,4-dithiol.
- the units (ii) are preferably linked to the units (i) at the para position.
- a triaryl monomer (i)-(ii)-(i) is used and thus it will be appreciated that (a) a dithiol form of the R 1 aromatic ring system is reacted with (b) a triaryl monomer formed from two units of fluorine-substituted six-membered aromatic ring and one unit of a dithiol form of the R 1 aromatic ring system.
- the monomers (a) and (b) may suitably be provided in molar ratios of 1:10 to 10:1, e.g. 1:5 to 5:1, and most commonly about 1:1.
- an ammonium salt templating agent of Formula (II) is used, e.g. NMe 4 +F- , together with a suitable solvent, e.g. pyridine.
- a suitable solvent e.g. pyridine.
- the reaction can be carried out at room temperature.
- a suitable reaction time may be about 0.5 hours.
- the ammonium salt templating agent is suitably employed in an amount of 1.0 equivalents or more (with respect to dithiol monomer (a)), e.g.
- the skilled person can control the ring size for the macrocyclic compound by the choice of ammonium salt templating agent of Formula (II) and/or by the choice of monomers used in the pre-organised macrocyclization.
- a larger template for the reaction e.g. a large tetra-substituted ammonium fluoride salt
- R a , R b , R c , and R d can be selected to be sterically bulkier groups if a large n value is desired.
- the use of a larger monomers in the pre-organised macrocyclization route would leads to a larger macrocycle (greater n value).
- a multi-aryl monomer (b) formed from alternating units (i)-(ii)-(i)-(ii)-(i) or (i)-(ii)-(i)-(ii)-(i)-(i)-(i) may be selected if a large n value is desired.
- This pre-organised macrocyclization route also beneficially provides greater control over ring size.

JPH05-301962 A describes a cyclic arylene sulfide oligomer expressed by the following formula:
where Ar is 6-24 C arylene; R is 1-12 C alkyl, 1-12 C alkoxy, 6-24 C arylene or primary, secondary or tertiary amino; n is 2-50; and m is 0-15. Alternative options for the R substituent are mentioned as being a carboxyl group or its ester, a cyano group, a sulfonic acid group, or a halogen atom; however no synthetic route to successfully obtain a fluorinated product is provided. The compounds of JPH05-301962 A are macrocycles with a single R-substituted Ar group present as the monomer. The monomer backbone that forms the macrocycle ring structure therefore only includes one type of aromatic group.

US2018/0290952 describes halogenated macrocyclic “nanohoop” compounds such as:
US2019/025315, US2020/010419, US2021/095069 and US2021/095070 also describe similar “nanohoop” compounds. However, there remains a need in the art for new macrocyclic ring systems. Summary of the Invention The present invention provides, in a first aspect, a macrocyclic compound of Formula (I):
wherein each R1 is independently an aromatic ring system that is optionally substituted, and wherein n is an integer of from 2 to 50. The compounds of the invention are therefore macrocycles with two aromatic ring systems present in each monomer. One characterising feature of the invention is the inclusion of two different aryls. Both the R1 aromatic ring system and the fluorinated phenylene aromatic ring system are within the backbone of the monomer that forms the macrocycle (rather than being pendant therefrom). Therefore the monomer backbone that in turn forms the macrocycle ring structure includes both of these aromatic groups.
The skilled reader will appreciate that the macrocyclic nature of the compound is represented by the solid curved line. In the above formula this solid curved line represents a bond formed between an R1 group and a sulphur atom attached to a para-positioned carbon atom of a fluorinated aromatic ring, to thereby form the macrocyclic structure. In general, the macrocyclic compounds of the invention can be used in a variety of different applications. For example, they could be used as transport facilitators, synthetic templates (e.g., nanoreactors), or as electrically conductive materials. As such, the macrocyclic compounds of the invention can be used in different biological and/or chemical systems and even in energy storage devices. These compounds of the invention are valuable synthetic intermediates, e.g. for manipulation into other macrocyclic species. In this regard, the displaceable fluorine substituents within the macrocyclic compounds of Formula (I) afford further valuable macrocyclic compounds by their (SNAr) displacement with suitable nucleophiles and other carbon-based and heteroatom nucleophiles. These compounds of the invention may be used as precursors for electronics molecules. The compounds can stack in a barrel-like arrays, giving the ability to create a 2D conductor. These compounds are also useful due to the cavity provided within the macrocyclic structure. For example, they may be used as sequestering agents, or they may be used as sensors whereby an agent to be detected binds inside the cavity. Thus, the macrocyclic compounds of the invention may further comprise an interlocked compound constrained within the cavity defined by the macrocycle. These compounds are also useful due to the reactive C-F bonds and their overall size, which is greater than 1nm. This provides potential utility as scaffolds for use in pharmaceutical applications, in sensing apparatus and in membrane reactors. Detailed Description of the Invention In the compound of Formula (I), each R1 is independently an aromatic ring system that is optionally substituted.
In one embodiment each R1 is the same. However, it will be recognised that Formula (I) also allows for the preparation of mixed systems, where the R1 groups are different. The synthesis of the macrocyclic compounds of the invention from monomers, as described below, facilitates the incorporation of different R1 aromatic ring systems, in particular when the pre- organised macrocyclization route is used. Therefore, in one embodiment the macrocyclic compound of the invention includes two or more different R1 groups, such as two, three or four different R1 groups. For example, there may be two different R1 groups, which can therefore be represented as follows:
wherein R1´ and R1´´ are each an aromatic ring system that is optionally substituted, and wherein n´ is an integer of from 1 to 49 and wherein n´´ is an integer of from 1 to 49 and where n´+n´´ is an integer of from 2 to 50. Thus, each of R1´ and R1´´ is an R1 aromatic ring system and these groups can each independently follow the definitions and preferred embodiments as disclosed herein for the R1 aromatic ring system. It will also be appreciated that n´ plus n´´ equals n, and that the definitions and preferred embodiments as disclosed herein for the values of n apply. In one embodiment the R1 aromatic ring system has from 5 to 18 ring members, such as from 5 to 12 ring members. The R1 aromatic ring system may be a monocyclic ring (e.g. phenylene) or may be a fused ring, e.g. resulting from the condensation of multiple benzene rings or resulting from the condensation of benzene and other rings. In one embodiment the fused ring is formed from two or three rings. In one embodiment it is formed from a five-membered ring fused with a six-membered ring, or from two fused six-membered rings, or from two fused five-membered rings.
Examples of fused rings include a pentalene ring, indene ring, naphthalene ring, anthracene ring, azulene ring, biphenylene ring, indacene ring, acenaphthylene ring, fluorene ring, phenalene ring, and a phenanthrene ring. Heterocyclic aromatic rings could be contemplated, e.g. where the aromatic ring system includes one or more S, N or O atom within the ring system. The skilled person will appreciate that the heteroatom(s) replace one or more of the carbon atoms within the ring. In general, in the heterocyclic aromatic ring there may suitably be up to four heteroatoms which replace a carbon in the ring, e.g. one, two or three heteroatoms which replace a carbon in the ring. Examples of heterocyclic rings include a pyridine ring, pyrimidine ring, pyrazine ring, pyridazine ring, carbazole ring, indole ring, isoindole ring, indolizine ring, quinoline ring, isoquinoline ring and a purine ring. The R1 aromatic ring system preferably contains a bivalent 6-membered aromatic ring or a bivalent 6-membered heterocyclic aromatic ring. In one embodiment, it has binding sites at the para-positions. The R1 aromatic ring system is preferably selected from phenylene, biphenylene and naphthylene ring systems, each of which may optionally be substituted. Thus, in one preferred embodiment, R1 is selected from:
wherein each Y is a substituent group (which may be as further defined below) and wherein m is an integer from 0 to 8, e.g. from 0 to 4, such as 0, 1 or 2. It will be appreciated that if m is zero then the R1 aromatic ring system is unsubstituted. In one preferred embodiment, R1 is selected from a phenylene group (in particular, a 1,4- phenylene group) and a naphthylene group (in particular, a 1,5-naphthylene group or 2,6-
naphthylene group), each of which may optionally be substituted. In one such embodiment, R1 is a phenylene group, which may optionally be substituted. In one embodiment, R1 is not
. It is desirable that R1 is not C6F4. In one embodiment, R1 is unsubstituted. In another embodiment, R1 is substituted. When R1 is substituted, there may be one or more substituent groups, e.g. one or two or three substituent groups. It may be that each substituent group is independently selected from an electron-donating group or an electron-accepting group. Electron-donating groups can be any functional groups capable of donating at least a portion of its electron density into the ring to which it is directly attached, such as by resonance. Exemplary electron-donating groups can be selected from, but not limited to, one or more of the following groups: alkoxy, thioether, amide, amine, hydroxyl, thiol, acyloxy, aliphatic (e.g., alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl), aryl, or combinations thereof. Electron-accepting groups can be any functional groups capable of accepting electron density from the ring to which it is directly attached, such as by inductive electron withdrawal. Exemplary electron-accepting groups can be selected from, but not limited to, one or more of the following: aldehyde, ketone, ester, carboxylic acid, acyl, acyl halide, cyano, sulfonate, nitro, nitroso, quaternary amine, pyridinyl (or pyridinyl wherein the nitrogen atom is functionalized with an aliphatic or aryl group), alkyl halide, or combinations thereof. In one embodiment, each substituent group is independently selected from: halo, C1-12 alkyl, C1-12 alkylhalo, CN, NO2, ORx, NRxRy, OC(O)Rx, C(O)Rx, C(O)NRxR12, C(O)OR11, OS(O) x x x x 2R , SR , and R ; wherein R and Ry are each independently selected from hydrogen, C1-12 alkyl, C1-12 alkylhalo, C5-12 aryl, and C5-12 heteroaryl (e.g., in one embodiment, Rx and Ry are each independently selected from hydrogen and C1-6 alkyl).
In one embodiment, each substituent group is independently selected from: halo, C1-12 alkyl, C1-12 alkylhalo, ORx, NRxRy, SRx, and Rx; wherein Rx and Ry are each independently selected from hydrogen, C1-12 alkyl, C1-12 alkylhalo, C5-12 aryl, C5-12 heteroaryl (e.g. in one embodiment, Rx and Ry are each independently selected from hydrogen and C1-6 alkyl). In one embodiment, each substituent group is independently selected from: C1-6 alkyl (e.g. methyl or ethyl), halo (e.g. Br), ORx (e.g. OH or OMe) and NRxRy (e.g. NH2 or NMe2). In one embodiment, where a substituent group on the R1 is halo, it is not F. In one embodiment, therefore, where there is halo substitution on the R1 group, it is selected from Cl and Br and I, such as Br. When the alkyl group has three or more carbon atoms, it may be straight chain or branched. The aryl group is a carbocyclic group having aromatic character, examples of which include phenyl and naphthyl. The aryl or heteroaryl group can, for example, have from 5 to 10 ring members. The aryl or heteroaryl group can, for example, be a five-membered or six-membered monocyclic ring or a bicyclic structure formed from a five-membered ring fused with a six- membered ring, or from two fused six-membered rings, or from two fused five-membered rings. In the heteroaryl group there may suitably be up to four heteroatoms which replace a carbon in the ring; these are typically selected from nitrogen, sulphur and oxygen. Typically, the heteroaryl ring will contain up to 3 heteroatoms, more usually up to 2, for example a single heteroatom. In one embodiment, there are up to three substituent groups on the R1 aromatic ring system. In one embodiment, there are zero, one, or two substituent groups on the R1 aromatic ring system. In one embodiment, n is an integer from 2 to 48, such as from 2 to 36, or from 2 to 24 or from 4 to 24; in certain embodiments n is an integer from 2 to 20 or from 2 to 18, such as from 4 to 16 or from 4 to 12, e.g. 4, or 6, or 8, or 10, or 12. In one embodiment, n is an integer from 4 to 10. In one embodiment, n is 4 or 6. In one preferred embodiment, the macrocyclic compound of the invention is of Formula (I-i):
wherein each Y is independently selected from hydrogen or a substituent group as defined above, and where n is an integer as defined above. For example, each Y may independently be selected from: hydrogen, C1-6 alkyl (e.g. methyl or ethyl), halo (e.g. Br), ORx (e.g. OH or OMe) and NRxRy (e.g. NH2 or NMe2), and n may be an integer from 2 to 20 or from 2 to 18, such as from 4 to 16 or from 4 to 12, e.g. 4, or 6, or 8, or 10, or 12. In one embodiment, the compound is of Formula (I-a), where n=4, or Formula (I-b), where n=6:
The skilled reader will recognise that the definitions provided above are not intended to include impermissible substitution patterns (e.g., methyl substituted with 5 different groups, and the like). In formulae and specific compounds disclosed herein, a hydrogen atom is present and completes any formal valency requirements (but may not necessarily be illustrated) wherever a functional group or other atom is not illustrated.
The compounds of Formula (I) can be obtained by use of known monomers together with an ammonium salt templating agent. Surprisingly, it has been found that by using these specific templating agents the macrocyclic ring structure is formed, rather than a linear polymer chain. The ammonium salt templating agent is of Formula (II): [N Ra Rb Rc Rd]+X- (II) wherein each of Ra, Rb, Rc, and Rd are independently selected from hydrogen, C1-C12 alkyl, C5-12 aryl and C6-C22 alkaryl, and wherein X is a counterion. When the alkyl group has three or more carbon atoms, it may be straight chain or branched. The aryl group is a carbocyclic group having aromatic character, examples of which include phenyl and naphthyl. The aryl group can, for example, be a five-membered or six-membered monocyclic ring or may be a bicyclic structure from a five-membered ring fused with a six- membered ring, or from two fused six-membered rings, or from two fused five-membered rings. The aryl group can, for example, have from 5 to 10 ring members. Alkaryl refers to - alkylene-aryl groups, preferably having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alkylene moiety and preferably having from 6 to 10 carbon atoms in the aryl moiety. Such alkaryl groups are exemplified by benzyl, phenethyl and the like. For example, each of Ra, Rb, Rc, and Rd may be independently selected from hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, Ph, -CH2-aryl and -CH2CH2-aryl. The aryl group can, for example, have from 5 to 10 ring members. In one preferred embodiment, each of Ra, Rb, Rc, and Rd may be independently selected from hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, n-butyl, and Ph. In particular, each of Ra, Rb, Rc, and Rd may be independently selected from hydrogen, methyl, ethyl and n-butyl. In one embodiment, Ra Rb Rc and Rd are all the same. In one embodiment, each of Ra, Rb, Rc, and Rd is the same and each is H, or each is methyl, or each is ethyl, or each is n-butyl. In one such embodiment, each of Ra, Rb, Rc, and Rd is the same and each is methyl.
X may be any suitable counterion. In one embodiment, X is selected from a halogen (F, Cl, Br, I) or a pseudohalogen (for example: OH, CN, OCN, SCN, N3). In one preferred embodiment, X is a halogen, such as F.
In one preferred embodiment, the ammonium salt templating agent is NMe4 +F-, or NH4 +F- or NBU4 +F-. In one such embodiment, the ammonium salt templating agent is NMe4 +F-.
Advantageously, it has been found that there is a kinetic effect associated with the use of the ammonium salt templating agent of Formula (II), as well as a templating effect. The ammonium salt templating agent of Formula (II) allows the reaction to proceed at room temperature and with a reaction time of about 0.5 hours.
Although templating is known for other molecules, it has not been described for use in relation to forming macrocyclic rings according to the present invention. Unexpectedly, the ammonium salt templating agent of Formula (II) works without any apparent size limitation; a range of different sized macrocycles have been obtained successfully. Additionally, the ammonium salt templating agent of Formula (II) provides significant rate accelerations over traditional templating approaches.
The compounds of Formula (I) can be obtained by use of the above -noted ammonium salt templating agent in a one-pot macrocyclization or in a pre-organised macrocyclization.
Thus, in this exemplary scheme (a) benzenedithiol is reacted with (b) a fluorine-substituted six-membered aromatic ring.
In general, it will be appreciated that (a) a dithiol form of the R1 aromatic ring system is reacted with (b) a fluorine -substituted six-membered aromatic ring, e.g. C6F6. For monomer (a), the dithiol form of the R1 aromatic ring system is preferably a para dithiol form, e.g. a 1,4-dithiol.
The monomers (a) and (b) may suitably be provided in molar ratios of 1: 10 to 10: 1, e.g. 1:5 to 5: 1, and most commonly about 1: 1.
In one embodiment the reaction is between the dithiol 1,4-HSC6H4SH and C6F6.
Thus, in this exemplary scheme (a) benzenedithiol is reacted with (b) a triaryl monomer formed from two units of fluorine-substituted six-membered aromatic ring and one unit of benzenedithiol.
In general, it will be appreciated that (a) a dithiol form of the R1 aromatic ring system is reacted with (b) a multi -aryl monomer formed from alternating units of (i) fluorine-substituted six-membered aromatic ring and (ii) a dithiol form of the R1 aromatic ring system. The multi- aryl monomer formed from alternating units may, for example, be (i)-(ii)-(i), or (i)-(ii)-(i)- (ii)-(i), or (i)-(ii)-(i)-(ii)-(i)-(ii)-(i).
For monomer (a), the dithiol form of the R1 aromatic ring system is preferably a para dithiol form, e.g. a 1,4-dithiol.
For monomer (b), the units (ii) are preferably linked to the units (i) at the para position.
In one embodiment, for monomer (b) a triaryl monomer (i)-(ii)-(i) is used and thus it will be appreciated that (a) a dithiol form of the R1 aromatic ring system is reacted with (b) a triaryl monomer formed from two units of fluorine-substituted six-membered aromatic ring and one unit of a dithiol form of the R1 aromatic ring system. The monomers (a) and (b) may suitably be provided in molar ratios of 1:10 to 10:1, e.g. 1:5 to 5:1, and most commonly about 1:1. In both the one-pot macrocyclization and the pre-organised macrocyclization, an ammonium salt templating agent of Formula (II) is used, e.g. NMe4+F- , together with a suitable solvent, e.g. pyridine. The skilled person will appreciate that a range of alternative solvents could be used. For example, triethylamine and N-methylmorpholine could be contemplated. In both the one-pot macrocyclization and the pre-organised macrocyclization, the reaction can be carried out at room temperature. A suitable reaction time may be about 0.5 hours. The ammonium salt templating agent is suitably employed in an amount of 1.0 equivalents or more (with respect to dithiol monomer (a)), e.g. from 1.0 to 2.0 equivalents. The skilled person can control the ring size for the macrocyclic compound by the choice of ammonium salt templating agent of Formula (II) and/or by the choice of monomers used in the pre-organised macrocyclization. In general, the use of a larger template for the reaction (e.g. a large tetra-substituted ammonium fluoride salt) leads to a larger macrocycle (greater n value). Thus Ra, Rb, Rc, and Rd can be selected to be sterically bulkier groups if a large n value is desired. Likewise, the use of a larger monomers in the pre-organised macrocyclization route would leads to a larger macrocycle (greater n value). For example, a multi-aryl monomer (b) formed from alternating units (i)-(ii)-(i)-(ii)-(i) or (i)-(ii)-(i)-(ii)-(i)-(ii)-(i) may be selected if a large n value is desired. This pre-organised macrocyclization route also beneficially provides greater control over ring size.
Thus, although the following examples illustrate the preparation of the macrocyclic compounds according to the invention where n is 4 or 6, it is readily within the ability of the skilled person to use larger templates and/or to use larger monomers in order to obtain further macrocyclic compounds according to the invention where n is higher. Examples The invention will be further illustrated by the following non-limiting examples. Example 1a: Reagent 1
