The 3–4 fold stronger binding interaction between sensor 1 and isophthalate in comparison with those of other dicarboxylates may be the result of the good host–guest shape-complementary relationship and the ππ interactions between the aromatic moieties

Secondly, the six-membered ring comprising–C1–C2–C3–C4–C5–C6– and the adjacent thiophene (–S3–C7–C8–C4–C3–) form ππ interactions with a neighbouring molecule, such that the overlap between the corresponding molecules is restricted to one minor portion of the molecule. The centroid

  • . Strong hydrogen bonding between the lactam units favors the chromophores forming physically cross-linked chain structures in the solid state, which is the origin for the poor solubility [7][8].

Graphical Abstract
  • . The authors reasoned that steric and ππ-interactions with the crowns phenyl substituents are the decisive factor for the enantioselective recognition. Recently, Turgut et al. reported a comparable series of C2-symmetric chiral aza crown ether macrocycles (29) based on (S)-3-phenyloxy-1,2-propanediol

For tryptophan (81b) the best results were achieved with selection factors of one enantiomer over the other up to 13 fold, corresponding to over 90% ee. This is explained by ππ-interactions. Besides chiral substituents on the crown ether ring, chiral
