Mechanistic insights into the recognition of Fe2+ and solvent-driven selectivity of chalcone-based receptors by Ajay Shankar

“…Spectrosc. 287 (2023) 122107; 303 (2023) 123129], this study offers novel insight into the supramolecular recognition of Fe2+ by receptor R1, wherein the conventional chalcone binding strategy is extended. Density Functional Theory (DFT) is used to differentiate the complexation behavior of chalcone-based receptors (R1, R2, R3), revealing key nucleophilic centres, particularly the carbonyl and phenolic oxygen atoms, as primary coordination sites. …”
