Molecular recognition and supramolecular chemistry in the gas phase

摘要: Supramolecular chemistry, in particular, the fields of molecular recognition and self-assembly, profit much from development soft ionization techniques advanced methods for mass analysis gas-phase chemistry. Vice versa, weakly bonded architectures host-guest complexes represent a veritable challenge spectrometrist, leading to further techniques. This review describes state-of-the-art this field, includes topics such as effects solvation on meta binding crown ethers, chiral discrimination guests by hosts, elucidation secondary structure self assembled complexes, mechanistic pathways assembly or fragmentations supramolecular gas phase.
