title: Polarized vesicles in molecular recognition and catalysis.
abstract: This account summarizes studies on chemistry in polarized vesicles with rigid-rod molecules. Examples for the recognition of and self-assembly, molecular recognition, and catalysis in polarized vesicles are discussed with emphasis on 'remote control' by dipole-potential interactions and electrostatic steering.
