Double-cavity Q[n]s are relatively new members of the Q[n] family and have garnered significant interest due to their distinctive structures and novel properties. While they incorporate n glycoluril units, akin to their single-cavity counterparts, th... Read More about Double-cavity cucurbiturils: synthesis, structures, properties, and applications.

Detection of basic amino acids under highly alkaline conditions using a perylene amine-derived probe (2024)
Journal Article
