Stereoisomeric beta-cyclodextrin (CD) dimers linked with a sulfur atom or an arene spacer were designed to create a tethered dual CD capsule for precisely manipulating the regio-and enantioselectivities of the photocyclodimerization of 2-anthracenecarboxylate (AC) to four stereoisomeric classical 9,10:9',10'-cyclodimers and two nonclassical 5,8:9',10'-cyclodimers. Among the dimeric CD hosts prepared, exo-3-thia-beta-CD dimer formed 1:1 and 1:2 host guest complexes with AC in aqueous solutions, the former of which hindered but the latter facilitated the AC photocyclodimerization with regio-and enantioselectivities much higher than those obtained with native beta-CD or the rest of the beta-CD dimers. The stereochemical outcomes turned out to be highly sensitive to and hence critically manipulable by the linking position and configuration of the connected saccharide units and the linker length, as well as the external variants, such as temperature, pH, and added salt. Eventually, the photocyclodimerization of AC mediated by the dimeric beta-CD host gave enantiopure syn-head-to-tail-9,10:9',10'-cyclodimer in 97-98% yield in a pH 5.1 buffer solution at 0.5 degrees C and also in an aqueous CsCl solution at -20 degrees C.
