The selective recognition of caffeine in water among structurally related xanthines and purine or pyrimidine bases was achieved by a simple tweezer-shaped receptor featuring sulfonate hydrosolubilizing groups. The remarkable affinity for caffeine, among the highest reported thus far in the literature and larger than that shown by adenosine receptors of all subtypes, stems from a synergistic combination of hydrogen bonding, CH-pi, and pi-stacking interactions.

Abstract
The selective recognition of caffeine in water among structurally related xanthines and purine or pyrimidine bases was achieved by a simple tweezer-shaped receptor featuring sulfonate hydrosolubilizing groups. The remarkable affinity for caffeine, among the highest reported thus far in the literature and larger than that shown by adenosine receptors of all subtypes, stems from a synergistic combination of hydrogen bonding, CH-pi, and pi-stacking interactions.File in questo prodotto:
