Abstract
AbstractThe sulfate anion SO42– – one of the most powerful and versatile anionic templates – can be reversibly “switched off” in aprotic solvents by protonation to the very weakly binding anion HSO4–. This sharp ON/OFF behaviour opens new opportunities for switching and manipulation of anion templated supramolecular systems, such as reversible folding/unfolding, assembly/disassembly or induction of mechanical motions. As a proof of concept, two new acid/base switchable three‐state systems are presented here.
