Supramolecular Chemistry - Fundamentals and Applications (eBook, PDF)

Advanced Textbook

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The fundamentals of "supramolecular chemistry" to the latest developments on the subject are covered by this book. It sets out to explain the topic in a relatively easy way. The basic concepts of molecular recognition chemistry are included. Molecules with fascinating shapes and functions such as fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, dendrimers, rotaxane, and catenane, and molecular assemblies are also explained. Thereafter applications of supermolecules to nanotechnology are introduced with many examples of molecular devices. The last part of the book describes biological supermolecules and their mimics. Though simply explained undergraduate and graduate students in Chemistry will be able to use aspects of this work as an advanced textbook.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"The book covers many of the standard molecular building blocks such as cyclodextrins, cyclophanes, and calixarenes. ... The book concentrates on a few well-chosen systems, describing them extensively and with enthusiasm. It is particularly good on interfacial systems where the authors are clearly world leaders. ... Overall, then, this book presents a cheerful and optimistic picture of supramolecular chemistry ... . It might be good for inspiring graduate students to learn more ... ." (Jeremy K. M. Sanders, Materials Today, Vol. 10 (6), 2007)
