Phosphate selective binding and sensing by halogen bonding tripodal copper( ii ) metallo-receptors in aqueous media †

Combining the potency of non-covalent halogen bonding (XB) with metal ion coordination, the synthesis and characterisation of a series of hydrophilic XB tripodal Cu(ii) metallo-receptors, strategically designed for tetrahedral anion guest binding and sensing in aqueous media is described. The report...
