Title
Steric and electronic factors influencing recognition by a simple, charge neutral norbornene based anion receptor
Based on 1H NMR studies, subtle electronic factors rather than pre-organisation dictate the binding stoichiometry of the new, norbornene based, anion hosts 1 and 2 with acetate, however, the binding of dihydrogenphosphate appears to be based solely on steric constraints.
