Description
This book covers the fundamental physical principles of the selective complexation, extraction, and transport of ions and molecules by macrocyclic compounds - both natural and synthetic. It also treats the use of these compounds for the extraction and transport of substrates in chemical and biological systems.
Included are solution kinetic and thermodynamic properties of the complexes, along with relevant experimental methods, complemented by solution and solid-state structures. General and specific methods for the synthesis of macro(poly)cyclic specialised ligands are described.
The book is useful as additional reading for undergraduate courses in chemistry (e.g. inorganic complexation chemistry, analytical chemistry, solution kinetics, synthesis) and biochemistry (ion transport/membrane phenomena); for graduate students in chemistry and biochemistry; for research workers in macrocyclic chemistry and biophysical chemistry; and for industrial laboratories involved in metal ion extraction and recovery.
