Kurzbeschreibung
Core Concepts in Supramolecular Chemistry and Nanochemistry: From Supramolecules to Nanotechnology provides a concise introduction to this fast developing subject. The book offers a modern up-to date approach and carefully explains the basics and essential theory behind the subject. Assuming little in the way of prior knowledge, the text introduces cation, anion and neutral molecule receptors together in one chapter and highlights the common features between these closely related areas. The close links between supramolecular and biological chemistry are emphasised by combining natural and artificial systems throughout the text.
