Dynamic mechanostereochemical switching of a co-conformationally flexible [2]catenane controlled by specific ionic guests

Abstract Responsive synthetic receptors for adaptive recognition of different ionic guests in a competitive environment are valuable molecular tools for not only ion sensing and transport, but also the development of ion-responsive smart materials and related technologies. By virtue of the mechanica...
