Abstract

Conclusions This work has shown that receptor 14+ has a substantial affinity for the surveyed neurotransmitters, indole, and catechol, forming inclusion complexes with all of them in aqueous media. The origin of these binding properties dwells in the rigid*-acceptor cavity (defined by the two paraquat groups) of the title cyclophane. We have also shown that it is possible to manipulate the oxidation state of the receptor's paraquat groups to alter its ...
