Abstract

This study introduces new triazole-linked host compounds, which have been synthesized from 7,8-dioxa-bisnaphthalene and 7,8-dioxa[6]helicenes. These compounds have different cavities depending on being 'v'-shaped or helicene structures. The dimeric structure of 7,8-dioxa-bisnaphthalene has also been obtained and crystal structure analysis confirmed that it contains an unusual seven-membered dihydrooxepine ring. All synthesized compounds can act as molecular tweezers for organic molecules and also metal ions.
