The Rational Design and Synthesis of Ionophores and Fluoroionophores for the Selective Detection of Monovalent Cations

The rational design, synthesis and complexation characteristics of several monovalent cation-selective ligands are described. Molecular modeling employing a combination of dynamics, mechanics (AMBER94) and electrostatics was used to design ligands for the complexation of ammonium, potassium, sodium...
