Abstract

Benzo-15-crown-5 and dipicolylamine are contained as the binding sites in a ditopic azoprobe (15C5-Azo-n-dpa). However, the selectivities of guest-induced supramolecular chirality for cations and anions were dramatically altered by a slight change in the spacer length of (15C5-Azo-n-dpa)2-γ-CyD complexes in water.
