Pyridyl thioureas as switchable anion receptors

Pyridyl thioureas as switchable anion receptors
Pyridyl thioureas as switchable anion receptors
The binding selectivity of simple pyridyl thioureas in acetonitrile can be completely switched by protonation; hence the neutral thiourea binds acetate, but not chloride or bromide, whereas the protonated thiourea binds strongly to chloride or bromide, but is deprotonated by acetate.

Abstract

The binding selectivity of simple pyridyl thioureas in acetonitrile can be completely switched by protonation; hence the neutral thiourea binds acetate, but not chloride or bromide, whereas the protonated thiourea binds strongly to chloride or bromide, but is deprotonated by acetate.
