Abstract
Many of the classical compounds which act as hosts in clathrate structures were discovered by chance [1,2]. However in the last twenty years considerable effort has gone into the synthesis of host molecules with specific properties, and Weber has recently reviewed the principles of directed host design [3,4]. He has shown that a successful host molecule should be bulky and rigid in order to provide suitable cavities which can accomodate a guest. In addition, it is helpful to have a high affinity functional group in the host molecule which can engage in specific host-guest interactions such as hydrogen bonding.
