C3-symmetric cage-like receptors: chiral discrimination of α-chiral amines in a confined space.
Cage-like receptors that have internal binding sites and a C(3)-symmetric chiral bias have been synthesized, and their chiral discrimination behavior toward α-chiral amines as their ammonium salts has been compared with that of their open structures.
