About this title

About the Author

Hai-Bo Yang obtained his PhD degree at the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences (ICCAS) in Beijing in 2004. Then he joined Professor Peter J. Stang’s group at the University of Utah as a Postdoctoral Fellow. Since the end of 2008, he has started his independent research as a PI at East China Normal University in Shanghai. Prof. Yang’s research interests span the areas of organic, organometallic, and supramolecular chemistry.

From the Back Cover

The metal-ligand coordination of metallomacrocycles allows for the production of both discrete and infinite metallosupramolecular structures with high-degrees of complexity. In recent years, coordination-driven self-assembly has emerged as a powerful noncovalent synthetic strategy to build discrete supramolecular architectures with diverse coordination moieties such as a well-defined shape, size, and geometry. The dynamic features of the metal-ligand bonds result in structures with intriguing properties allowing for a diverse range of applications in host-guest chemistry, sensing, drug delivery and catalysis.

This book provides a comprehensive summary of current research in metallomacrocycles. Starting with an introduction to metallomacrocycles constructed via coordination-driven self-assembly, the book then goes on to explore design principles and self-organization. Subsequent chapters then discuss examples of complex and functional metallosupramolecular systems based on metallomacrocycles such as chiral systems and mechanically interlocked architectures. Finally, the book discusses the applications of metallomacrocycles.

An essential resource for students and researchers looking to design and construct new metallosupramolecular systems and extend their applications in biological and materials science.
