Chalcogen bonding macrocycles and [2]rotaxanes for anion recognition

Electron-deficient heavy chalcogen atoms contain Lewis acidic σ-holes which are able to form attractive supramolecular interactions, known as chalcogen bonding (ChB), with Lewis bases. However, their potential in solution-phase anion binding applications is only just beginning to be realized in simp...
