Advances in anion transport by synthetic supramolecular systems are discussed in this
article. Developments in the design of discrete molecular carriers for anions and …

The study of the complexation of anions, from its beginnings in the late 1960s and 1970s,(1-
3) has moved on from being an area solely of academic interest to a fundamental pillar of …

Bicarbonate-based electrolytes are ubiquitous in aqueous electrochemical CO2 reduction,
particularly in heterogenous catalysis, where they demonstrate improved catalytic …

Since the start of this millennium, remarkable progress in the binding and sensing of anions
has been taking place, driven in part by discoveries in the use of hydrogen bonding, as well …

Fluctuations in the intracellular chloride ion concentration, mediated by synthetic ion
transporters, have been known to induce cytotoxicity in cells by disrupting ionic …

Perturbations in cellular chloride concentrations can affect cellular pH and autophagy and
lead to the onset of apoptosis. With this in mind, synthetic ion transporters have been used to …

Conspectus Transmembrane anion transport has been the focus of a number of
supramolecular chemistry research groups for a number of years. Much of this research is …

Stimulus-responsive reversible transformation between two structural conformers is an
essential process in many biological systems. An example of such a process is the …

In this Account, we discuss the development of new lipid bilayer aniontransporters based on
the structure of anionophoric natural products (the prodigiosins) and purely synthetic …

Transmembrane anion transporters (anionophores) have potential for new modes of
biological activity, including therapeutic applications. In particular they might replace the …
