Tuning the conformational flexibility of quinoxaline cavitands for complexation at the gas-solid interface

Chem Commun (Camb). 2022 Jul 5;58(54):7554-7557. doi: 10.1039/d2cc02710k.

Abstract

The selectivity and efficiency of benzene and toluene uptake at the gas-solid interface by quinoxaline cavitands is strongly enhanced by partial rigidification of the receptor cavity and immobilization of the cavitand onto silica gel particles.
