Abstract

Two symmetric ditopic supramolecular templates (1 and 2) each presenting two hydrogen bonding recognition subunits were synthesized. Each such subunit comprises the same donor and acceptor pattern, capable of binding a substrate molecule with complementary hydrogen bonding groups to form a supramolecular complex. Substrate molecules, such as thymine or uracil derivatives, yield 2: 1 complexes with the acceptors involving two ...
