Cucurbiturils (CBs) are robust and versatile macrocyclic compounds, often used as molecular hosts in complex supramolecular systems. In previous work, remarkable catalytic activity has been observed f
Hydrogen production is a major axis for the future energy transition. Sulfide catalysts and in particular MoS2 are widely studied for electrochemical hydrogen evolution (HER). Our preliminary data sho
Four intramolecular hydrogen bonding-driven aromatic amide foldamers 2−5 have been designed and synthesized in which a 2-methoxy-3-nitrobenzamide unit was incorporated at the end of the backbone. Kine
Transformations within container-molecules provide a good alternative between traditional homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, as the containers themselves can be regarded as single molecular nano
The enhancement of reactivity inside supramolecular coordination cages has many analogies to the mode of action of enzymes, and continues to inspire the design of new catalysts for a range of reaction
