Summary:

Cryptands, soon after their introduction in early 1970s, have proven enormously useful in several areas of chemistry, biology, and materials science. This is continuously growing and venturing into newer fields of supramolecular chemistry research. There is no other book available that attempts to explore all aspects of cryptand chemistry. This book provides a good account of synthetic methods for different types of cryptands, especially chiral cryptands, which remain mostly unexplored. Using the cryptand cavity for homogeneous catalysis, reversible fluorescence sensing, FRET, optically nonlinear materials and construction of molecular level photonic devices - are all discussed. This book also gives an account of using cryptands for a new generation of amphiphiles for Langmuir-Blodgett films and stable vesicles besides the stabilization of metal nanoparticles. This book will be useful for senior university students interested in supramolecular chemistry, as well as budding researchers in this area.
