Abstract
With the application of DFT calculations (ωB97XD/def2-SVP/SVPfit), the ability and mechanism of noble gas encapsulation by cryptophane was investigated. Based on the applied model reaction, by monitoring geometric changes and investigating the non-covalent interactions between the studied hosts and the noble gases, the size of the host did not necessarily play a decisive role in the selective encapsulation of the guests. Rather the adjustment of the host’s interior and functionalization of its “gates” can be significant in tuning the affinity of cryptophanes.
