Since Lehn's famous definition of supramolecular chemistry, supramolecular synthesis as a rapidly growing field is still in its formative stage, which is an important method to construct new ...

Researchers have uncovered how the halogen bond can be exploited to direct sequential dynamics in multi-functional crystals, offering crucial insights for developing ultrafast-response times for ...

A team has reported the first demonstration of selective electrochemical separation driven by halogen bonding. This was achieved by engineering a polymer that modulates the charge density on a halogen ...

Perovskite-based solar cells would be easier to make given their chemical components, but issues around efficiency remain. Image: Oxford PV The chemical process of halogen bonding has “considerable ...

With a new polymer that only attracts certain substances from solutions when electrically activated, researchers have taken a major step towards sustainable chemical separation. A team based at the ...
