Abstract

Prof. YANG Yingwei and his coworker from Jilin University reported an entirely new kind of macrocyclic arene, namely geminiarene, featuring two different but interconvertible molecular configurations. Taking advantage of the dual/gemini conformational feature and the unique host-guest property of geminiarene, they developed unitary and dual guest selective adsorption/separation systems, in particular toward chlorobenzene and chlorocyclohexane.
