CB[7]+5+12


Data is finally starting to come in decently! Trying to duplicate an experiment with CB[7], m-phenylenediamine, and TMS right now. The numbers are off, but all by around twofold so it probably has something to do with this weird acid of crystallization we have in the CB[7] that the paper authors didn't.

In any case, stuff's finally chugging along!

Plus I might get to use the paracyclophane I made (plus a lot more that we ordered haha) and dock it to CB[7]! It fills the space pretty well, and if we add in a few amino groups, it should help with the solubility too!


It's so pretty!
