Concepts
(1)
It should be underscored that the thermodynamic activities of guest, host, and their complex(es) are not known
for almost all supramolecular systems described in the literature, and in reality the concentrations of guest, host,
and their complexes are directly used in the calculation
of association constant Ka . Therefore, the fundamental
thermodynamic difference between concentration (c) and
activity (a = c, where is the activity coefficient) should
always be kept in mind when supramolecular systems are
considered and discussed.
Certainly, the solvation to supramolecular host, guest,
and complex and thus the thermodynamics of supramolecular complexation are altered upon switching from one
solvent to another. Solvents used for supramolecular complexation may be divided into two very broad categories/groups: nonstructured or non-self-organized solvents
(e.g., aliphatic, aromatic, and halogenated hydrocarbons)
and structured or self-organized solvents (e.g., alcohols and
water). It is intuitive to assume that structured solvents
such as water should make profound impact on the binding behavior of supramolecular hosts and guests. However,
nonstructured solvents also should not be considered as just
inert media, and molecules of these solvents are often an
active component of supramolecular recognition process.
The hostguest association process that occurs in a nonstructured solvent is illustrated in Scheme 1. In general,
the total surface area of host and guest, which is accessible to solvent, is significantly reduced upon hostguest
complexation, limiting the number of solvent molecules
