Abstract
The solid host compound 2,2'-bis (9-hydroxy-9-fluorenyl)biphenyl 1 enc lathrates organic solvent vapours such as acetone, methanol and 1-buta nol to give stoichiometric inclusion complexes. Using differential sca nning calorimetry (DSC), desorption enthalpies were estimated to 10-20 kJ/mol, indicating weak host-guest interactions. Clathrate formations with acetone and methanol are reversible and reproducible, and show a dependence of the mass increase on the solvent concentration in a gas flow. The application of host compound 1 as receptor layer can be imp ortant for the future development of mass sensors for the determinatio n of organic solvent vapours.
