Mechanisms of Anion Recognition

From halides to nucleotides

  • Chapter
Fundamentals and Applications of Anion Separations

Abstract

Anion recognition by artificial receptors has received increasing attention, whereas the early focus in the development of host-guest ionophores was mainly on cation binding. Several books and reviews are available on the topic of anion complexation,1 which allows us to concentrate in the present review on mechanistic aspects of anion recognition as studied in our laboratory. Emphasis is on the quantitative evaluation of noncovalent interactions, which can lead to a better understanding of anion complexation in synthetic1 and natural2 systems. It is also hoped that such analyses can help the rational design of efficient anion-binding agents of industrial, analytical, or environmental importance. Systematic comparison of binding energies in geometrically well-defined host-guest complexes can provide insight into the underlying mechanisms and can provide reliable data for the prediction of affinities in synthetic and natural systems.3
