We present here a new class of cleft-like receptor molecules containing two or four phosphonates anions, tailored for multipoint binding of their substrates. Depending on the accessibility of the cleft, these hosts are water soluble and selective for short or long alpha, omega-diammonium compounds. Due to their inherent chirality, we found that only those host-guest combinations which allow a three-point-interaction were effective.

Abstract
We present here a new class of cleft-like receptor molecules containing two or four phosphonates anions, tailored for multipoint binding of their substrates. Depending on the accessibility of the cleft, these hosts are water soluble and selective for short or long alpha, omega-diammonium compounds. Due to their inherent chirality, we found that only those host-guest combinations which allow a three-point-interaction were effective.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
