Functionalized Calixarenes as Promising Antibacterial Drugs to Face Antimicrobial Resistance
Molecules, 2023 Since the discovery of polyphenolic resins 150 years ago, the study of polymeric compounds named calix[n]arene has continued to progress, and those skilled in the art perfectly know now how to modulate this phenolic ring. Consequently, calix[n]arenes are

Next Generation Hosts for Protein Recognition, Assembly and More. [PDF]
ChemistryThe original design of synthetic receptors for proteins was based on macrocycles with a hydrophobic core and a polar/charged periphery. This design, geared towards protein recognition, facilitates receptor self‐assembly. Macrocycle oligomerization, in turn, contributes to protein assembly as evidenced in many cocrystal structures.
