“…97 Over the years, crown ethers that are selective for a vast range of organic and inorganic cations have been devised. 98 However the supramolecular community has not investigated Hofmeister phenomena using these macrocycles. Indeed, there is much to learn here.…”

“…Since the advent of supramolecular chemistry in the 1980s, considerable effort has been invested in developing molecules that possess defined, predictable recognition properties [5][6][7] . Special focus has been placed on macrocyclic molecules, which have been shown to possess remarkable recognition properties with respect to anions 8 , cations 9 and small neutral molecules 10 . However, owing to a size discrepancy between host and guest molecules that is typically one to two orders of magnitude, applications with larger targets, such as proteins 2,11,12 , are limited.…”

“…Most likely the reason is the electrondonating character of anions, which is expected to lead to repulsive interactions with aromatic clouds. Anioninteractions are energetically less favorable than their cation-counterparts because the anions have greater van der Waals radii than cations and the binding energies strongly depend upon distance [2][3][4][5][6].In the field of supramolecular chemistry, crown ethers (CE) belong to the most popular hosts since their inclusion complexes have found a vast number of practical applications [7]. The aromatic ring-containing crown ethers may have enhanced complexing properties due to the -stacking interactions.…”
