Abstract
Phenyl-bis-(4,5-dihydroxy-2,7-disulfonato-3-naphthyl)methane, tetrasodium salt, self-assembles into a dimer in water. The dimeric form was evidenced by its encapsulation of monosubstituted benzenes, phenols, and polyaromatic hydrocarbons. The stability constants of the inclusion complexes were determined by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and the complexes formed were of 1:1 host to guest stoichiometry.
