V. Kral et al., OLIGOSAPPHYRINS - RECEPTORS FOR THE RECOGNITION AND TRANSPORT OF NUCLEOTIDE DIPHOSPHATES AND TRIPHOSPHATES, Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, (22), 1995, pp. 2349-2351
Covalently connected oligosapphyrins, in particular two trimers (linea
r and branched) and a tetramer the syntheses of which are detailed, ha
ve been found to be effective receptors for the binding and through-mo
del-membrane transport of nucleotide mono-, di- and tri-phosphates.
