Molecular Recognition Directed Self-Assembly of Supramolecular Polymers

摘要

The first part of this paper discusses the molecular design of selected examplesof structural units containing taper shaped exo-receptors and various crown ether, oligooxethylenic, and H-bonding based endo-receptors, which self-assemble into cylindrical channel-like architectures via principles resembling those of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). The ability of these structural units to self-
