Single-molecule force spectroscopy reveals cation-π interactions in aqueous media are highly affected by cation dehydration

Cation-π interactions underlie many important processes in biology and materials science. However, experimental investigations of cation-π interactions in aqueous media remain challenging. Here, we studied the cation-π binding strength and mechanism by pulling two hydrophobic polymers with distinct...
