Abstract:
Invited for this month's cover is the group of Dr. Mihail Barboiu from the Institut Europeen des Membranes of Montpellier, France and the Lehn Institute of Functional Materials at Sun-yat Sen University in Guangzhou, China. The cover picture shows the molecular recognition of folded 1,ω-amino-acids guests within p-sulfonatocalix[4]arene host anions stabilized with alternating hydrated cations and water molecules.
