Templates in Chemistry II

Christoph Schalley has received his PhD under the guidance of Helmut Schwarz and did his postdoctorate with Julius Rebek at the Scripps Research Institute in California. Currently, he is assistant professor in Bonn and has already authored more than 85 publications and four books. He was awarded with the Dozentenstipendium in 2004 of the Fonds der Chemischen Industrie.

Stoddart: Templated Synthesis of Interlocked Molecules.- C. Dietrich-Buchecker, B.X. Colasson, J.-P. Sauvage: Molecular Knots.- M. Crego-Calama, D.N. Reinhoudt, M.G.J. ten Cate: Templation in Noncovalent Synthesis of Hydrogen-Bonded Rosettes.- A.J. Hall, M. Emgenbroich, B. Sellergren: Imprinted Polymers.

Overall this is an interesting book that should capture the attention of researchers working in the area of classical suprmolecular host-guest chemistry.
