New triquinane-based host molecules : binding with diamines

Synthesis of several shape-specific hosts through heteroaromatic annulation on cis,syn,cis-triquinanedione 1 and X-ray crystal structure determination of one of them, 4a, is reported. Preliminary results of complexation between cleft 5a and diamines are reported

From cages to wedges and clefts : design of some novel hosts based on cis, syn, cis-triquinane framework

Annulation of aromatic rings on the folded cis, syn, cis -triquinane backbone has led to the design of potential host systems 4 and 6 whose crystal structures have been determined
