title: Immobilization of calix[4]arene-based glycoclusters on TiO2 nanoparticles via click Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne coupling.
abstract: We present the first type of tetraazide-functionalized calix[4]arene TiO(2) nanoparticles and their coupling to propargyl glycosides under Cu(I)-catalysis (click reaction), resulting in the immobilization of calix[4]arene-based glycoclusters on the TiO(2) surface.
