Abstract

V originále

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has become an important target for research due to its physiological properties and potential applications in medicine. Many synthetic molecules have been reported as exogenous H2S sources, which rely on chemical reactions for the delivery of the H2S. Bambusurils (BU) are a family of host macrocycles that bind inorganic and organic anions with high affinity and selectivity in both organic and aqueous media. In this work, supramolecular binding of sulfide (S2-) and hydrosulfide (HS-) anions by a synthetic receptor in water have been studied for the first time. Bambusuril macrocycles (BU) were used to stabilize these anions in its cavity following by their release into water.
