Alkali Metal Complexes with Organic Ligands

Abstract

Looking back to the introductory section, it appears that in recent years appreciable progress has been made in understanding and controlling the process of spherical recognition of alkali and alkaline-earth cations by organic ligand molecules. Information stored in various structural features allows the thermodynamic and kinetic features of the complexation process to be monitored. Further progress may be achieved by making use of the feedback from present results to adjust and improve the model and to analyze the information-property relationship.

Organic chemical synthesis clearly appears to be a major tool in such investigations, since it allows both separations of the effects of various kinds of structural features and combination of these features in an optimal, i.e. complementary, ligand. Further modifications in ligand structural features will shed more light on the complexation process and also on its functional consequences: cation transport and anion properties. A deeper understanding of these features may have wide consequences in fields ranging from biology to chemical technology.

Beyond the spherical substrate, the next step in the control of molecular recognition and in the strategic elaboration of molecular systems displaying highly specific properties resides in the design of synthetic ligands for organic molecules, i. e. of synthetic molecular receptors (165).
