Abstract
The removal of Cu2+ ions is relevant to environmental pollution control and neurodegenerative disease treatment. A novel family of strained macrocyclic pyridone hexamers, which exhibit highly selective recognition of Cu2+ ions and reduce copper content in artificial seawater by 97% at a very low [host]:[CuCl2] molar ratio of 2:1, is documented.Keywords
