Overview

A study of the class of synthetic macrocycles, called calixarenes. Rather than emphasizing the molecular properties of calixarenes, it covers in depth their supramolecular functions, demonstrating the peculiar features of calixarenes as hosts and as platforms for the synthesis of more complex reactors and catalysts. Topics include the use of calixarenes in: molecular modelling of calixarenes; non-covalent interactions; crystal engineering; cation recognition; anion recognition; supramolecular devices; new materials; self-assembly processes; and supramolecular catalysis. The book reports, for each topic, the literature critically evaluated by active researchers in the field.
