Supramolecular Chemistry Summary

Supramolecular Chemistry: Proceedings of the II NATO Science Forum, Taormina (Sicily), Italy, December 15-18, 1991 by Vincenzo Balzani

This volume documents the progress made in the design of complex artificial systems and in the study of intermolecular forces and interactions. It is possible, using appropriate strategies based on building blocks, to obtain very large supramolecular arrays containing several hundered atoms, where specific sites are occupied by the desired chemical functions. Such arrays can be used for such things as molecular recognition, self-organization, self-replication, selective reactivity, selective catalysis, photoinduced energy and electron transfer, signal processing, information storage and drug delivery.
