Supramolecular Chemistry
The self-assembly of molecules into large arrays is important in many areas of Chemistry including the formation of micelles, liquid crystals and membranes, metal extraction and purification, polymerisation, separation science, new materials, etc. At its most fundamental level, supramolecular chemistry involves the tailored design of molecules with the capacity interact with each other and with metal ions or other species to give stable molecular aggregates many of which have unique properties and applications.
