title: Molecular Recognition of Carbohydrates by Artificial Polypyridine and Polypyrimidine Receptors.
abstract: Despite their acyclic structure, the simple host molecules 1 and 2 can effectively hydrogen bond to monosaccharides. They show marked binding affinities to glucopyranosides in chloroform, and they are able to participate in three-dimensional recognition of monosaccharides.
