A look at the elegance and efficiency of biological machines readily reveals that Nature
masters the full gamut of chemical interactions to compose masterpieces of the living world …

It is shown that the performance of allosteric systems regarding the efficiency and the speed
of response depends critically on the strain energy of the equilibrating conformers and of the …

Dynamic range is a crucial aspect in the development of fluorescent chemosensors. We
aimed to address this issue using molecular logic gates. By creating an AND logic gate with …

Dibenzoarsacrowns have been synthesized as a novel class of heteroatom-fused crown
ethers. The dibenzoarsacrowns can size-selectively capture alkali metal cations, and the …

Glycosyl donors functionalized with 2, 2′-bipyridine moieties on the 3-OH and 6-OH or the
2-OH and 4-OH undergo a conformational change when forming 1: 1 complexes with Zn2+ …

The synthesis of a new positively allosteric bis (β-cyclodextrin) receptor 1 is described. The
binding affinity of the receptor in its “on” and “off” states towards sodium deoxycholate in …

In the past decades, a great number of stimuli-responsive systems have been developed to
be used as drug-delivery systems with high sensitivity and selectivity in targeted therapy …

3, 5-Dihydroxyphenyl-5-(dimethylamino) naphthalene-1-sulfonate, also referred to as sensor
R1, was synthesized and characterized by 1H-and 13C-NMR, IR, HRMS, and single-crystal …

Abstract A series of trans‐2‐(azaarylsulfanyl)‐cyclohexanols, structurally similar to
previously studied trans‐2‐aminocylohexanols, have been synthesized and explored as …

The book is designed to highlight the utility of supramolecular systems in diverse areas such
as sensing of ionic and molecular analytes, aggregation, artificial molecular machines …
