| Abstract | Self-assembly processes of the highly reduced bowl-shaped corannulene generated by the chemical reduction with a binary combination of alkali metals, namely Li–Rb, have been investigated by variable-temperature 1H and 7Li NMR spectroscopy. The formation of several unique mixed metal sandwich products based on tetrareduced corannulene, C20H104− (14−), has been revealed followed by investigation of their dynamic transformations in solutions. Analysis of NMR data allowed to propose the mechanism of stepwise alkali metal substitution as well as to identify experimental conditions for the isolation of intermediate and final supramolecular products. As a result, two new triple-decker aggregates with a mixed Li–Rb core, [{Rb(THF)2}2]//[Li3Rb2(C20H10)2{Li+(THF)}] (2) and [{Rb(diglyme)}2]//[Li3Rb3(C20H10)2(diglyme)2]·0.5THF (3·0.5THF), have been crystallized and structurally characterized. The Li3Rb2-product has an open coordination site at the sandwich periphery and thus is considered transient on the way to the Li3Rb3-sandwich having the maximized intercalated alkali metal content. Next, the formation of the LiRb5 self-assembly with 14− has been identified by 7Li NMR as the final step in a series of dynamic transformations in this system. This product was also isolated and crystallographically characterized to confirm the LiRb5 core. Notably, all sandwiches have their central cavities, located in between the hub-sites of two C20H104− decks, occupied by an internal Li+ ion which exhibits the record high negative shift (ranging from −21 to −25 ppm) in 7Li NMR spectra. The isolation of three novel aggregates having different Li–Rb core compositions allowed us to look into the origin of the unusual 7Li NMR shifts at the molecular level. The discussion of formation mechanisms, dynamic transformations as well as unique electronic structures of these remarkable mixed alkali metal organometallic self-assemblies is provided and supported by DFT calculations. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
