title: Binding of chemical warfare agent simulants as guests in a coordination cage: contributions to binding and a fluorescence-based response.
abstract: Cubic coordination cages act as competent hosts for several alkyl phosphonates used as chemical warfare agent simulants; a range of cage/guest structures have been determined, contributions to guest binding analysed, and a fluorescent response to guest binding demonstrated.
