Synthesis of halogen bonding and crown ether-functionalised Ni( ii )-salen receptors for cation, anion and ion-pair recognition

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Two families of Ni( ii ) salen complexes, with halogen bonding and crown ether binding moieties, are reported as neutral receptor molecules capable of binding catalytically relevant anion and ion-pair species in proximity to the Ni( ii ) centre.
