Funded Activity Summary

Ditopic receptors for the cooperative binding of cations and anions. This project is concerned with the design, synthesis and investigation of new receptor molecules that are capable of simultaneously binding metal cations and anions in a cooperative fashion. The new systems are based on a macrocyclic platform which acts as the metal binding site together with side-arms incorporating functional groups that are designed to cooperatively interact with a suitable anion. Potential applications exist for this category of ditopic receptors in mineral processing where the ability to extract a metal as its metal salt may lead to more efficient solvent extraction processes.
