Supramolecular Chemistry

Supramolecular Chemistry is one of the most popular and fastest growing areas of Experimental Chemistry. It is highly interdisciplinary in nature and as a result, attracts not just chemists but biochemists, biologists, environmental scientists, engineers, physicists, theoreticians, mathematicians and a whole host of other researchers. It is this breadth which gives supramolecular chemistry its wide allure and sometimes leads to grumbling that everything seems to be supramolecular these days. The present book is a general introductory text for supremolecular chemistry. It relates recent developments and new exciting approaches in supramolecular chemistry. It covers all areas from theoretical and modeling aspects. Focusing on the aspects of separation and reaction that are specific to supramolecular chemistry, this work will be of value to research chemists, engineers and graduate students, not only in the field of supramolecular chemistry, but in the wider area of pharmaceutical chemistry, green chemistry and agriculture.
