M. Albrecht et al., Synthesis of tweezer-type receptors for the recognition of anions: observation of an additive effect of hydrogen bonds on nitrate binding, MAT SCI E C, 18(1-2), 2001, pp. 185-190
The tweezer-type receptors 3, 8. and 11 are synthesized and are used for th
e binding of nitrate anions. Hereby, an additive effect of the hydrogen bon
ds on the free enthalpy of complexation is observed. Every additional hydro
gen bond increases DeltaG(HG), for the binding of nitrate in D-chloroform.
