Switchable bifunctional molecular recognition in water using a pH-responsive Endo-functionalized cavity

The development of synthetic host-guest systems for stimuli-responsive molecular recognition in water is challenging. Here, the authors report a pair of water-soluble naphthotubes with a pH-responsive cavity for which switchable bifunctional recognition in water is achieved.
