About this title

Review:

From the reviews:

"The title of this book aptly describes its contents and the prominent role that calixarenes have played in the rapid development of nanotechnology and material science over the past few years. ... In addition, the large number of contemporary and relevant citations to the literature makes this a helpful reference book. ... Overall, the book will inspire scientists in many disciplines to explore the wondrous potential of this versatile family of molecules." (Michael T. Blanda, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 129 (21), 2007)

From the Back Cover:

Calixarenes have been widely exploited in all areas of supramolecular chemistry over the past three decades and many recent developments have concerned their applications in the production of chemical entities with the dimensions of nanometres, as in "nanochemistry".

Calixarenes in the Nanoworld

• Relates calixarenes to nanochemistry – key information for industries engaged in the production of high-tech materials.
• Provides a timely review of both what is known and the exciting prospects provided by calixarenes
• Contains several review articles which define the importance of calixarenes as reagents in nanochemistry.

Calixarenes in the Nanoworld will be invaluable to students, academics, research institutions, and industries engaged in the production of high-tech materials.
