Uranyl-salophen based ditopic receptors for the recognition of quaternary ammonium halides.
Uranyl-salophen complexes endowed with aromatic side arms behave as very efficient ditopic receptors towards tetralkylammonium halides as a result of a combination of Lewis acid-base and cation-pi interactions.
