The macrocyclic family comprising pillar[n]arenes and cucurbit[n]urils have received much attention recently. However, studies on the construction of supramolecular complexes formed directly with derivatized pillar[n]arenes and cucurbit[n]urils are scant. Given the interest in such systems, herein we have synthesized a new type of naphthalene-derivatized pillar[n]arene NTP5 and selected Q[10] as the host molecule. The 4-[2-(1-naphthalenyl)ethenyl]pyridine of NTP5 is encapsulated by Q[10] and formed a host-guest complex in water-acetic acid (1:1) solution accompanied by enhanced fluorescence, which changed the morphology of NTP5 from a sphere to a porous form. In addition, the fluorescence of Q[10]-NTP5 can be quenched by the addition of the highly toxic pesticide paraquat (PQ), and the mechanism was shown to be the formation of a new charge transfer ternary system of Q[10]-NTP5-PQ. This work provides new ideas for the contribution of supramolecular assemblies based on derivatized pillar[n]arenes and their combination with cucurbit[n]urils and reveals their potential applications.
