Complexation between symmetrical tetramethylcucurbit[6]uril (TMeQ[6]) and 5,5'-bimethyl- 2,2'-bipyridine (bmbpy) was studied by two dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (2D NMR) as a host-guest interaction. Intermolecular NOE to appear in 2D ROESY (Rotating Frame Overhause Effect Spectroscopy) revealed a well-defined complex structure between them. One of pyridine rings in bmbpy intercalated the cavity of TMeQ[6] and the other was located outside one portal of TMeQ[6]. Two-dimensional exchange spectroscopy (2D EXSY) showed that the complex has undergone slow exchange at high temperature with two pyridine rings of bmbpy alternatively entering the cavity of TMeQ[6] and changing the combinative sites between the two portals of TMeQ[6]. The temperature dependence of the rate constants calculated from the exchange spectra yielded an activation energy of 104.2 kJ/mol for the exchange process.

Key words: symmetrical tetramethylcucurbit[6]uril, 5,5'-bimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine, NOE, dynamic equilibrium, activation energy
