[en] Electrospray mass spectrometry ; Host-guest interaction
[en] Macrocyclic and macropolycyclic polyammonium host molecules have been shown to complex a variety of inorganic and organic anions strongly and selectively. The selectivity of the complexation depends on the substrate lenght and on the size of the host cavity of the macrocycle. We describe in this article the analysis of the complexation of dicarboxylic acid substrates by a macrotricyclic host using electrospray mass spectrometry.
