Selective recognition of pyrophosphate in water using a backbone modified cyclic peptide receptor.
A cyclic peptide based receptor, bearing two dipicolylamino arms complexed to zinc(II) ions, binds pyrophosphate ions with high affinity and selectivity in aqueous solution as determined using an indicator displacement assay.
