Cation Binding by Macrocycles Complexation of Cationic Species by Crown Ethers

By Inoue Copyright 1990

    This reference details the theory and application of cation complexation, including the design and synthesis of various cyclic systems, these materials' use as transport systems, in complexation and selectivity studies by macrocyclic systems, and methodologies for understanding these phenomena.
