title: The complexation of two different ammonium ions with resorcarenes in protic solvent medium investigated by electrospray ionisation Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry.
abstract: The complexations of two ammonium ions (guests) with two resorcarenes (hosts) were investigated using electrospray ionisation Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. Although the two guests and the two hosts were noticeably similar, the quantity of the corresponding supramolecular complexes formed varied significantly due to the differences in host conformations and guest ability to form non-covalent interactions.
