Multicomponent multifunctional host-guest complexes are presented as early examples with potential applications in sensing, catalysis, and photo-redox systems.
We discuss first examples resulting from a combination of both principles, namely multicomponent multifunctional host-guest complexes, and their potential in application in areas such as sensing, catalysis, and photo-redox systems.
Combining several functionalities within the same assembly without creating statistical mixtures requires sophisticated assembly strategies.
Combining several functionalities without creating statistical mixtures, however, requires a toolbox of sophisticated assembly strategies.
Dedicated functionalities such as catalytic centres or photoswitches have been implemented in coordination cages to enable stimuli control and expanded function.
Recently, the field has made big steps forward by implementing dedicated functionality, e.g. catalytic centres or photoswitches to allow stimuli control.
Self-assembled coordination cages have attracted growing attention because their nano-scale cavities enable host functions such as selective recognition and confined reaction environments.
cages, with particularly the latter ones catching growing attention, owing to their nano-scale cavities. Assemblies serving as hosts allow application as selective receptors, confined reaction environments and more.
