Abstract
Mutual induced fit is an important phenomenon in biological molecular recognition, but it is still rare in artificial systems. Here we report an artificial host-guest system in which a flexible calix[4]arene is enclathrated in a dynamic self-assembled host and both molecules mutually adopt specific three-dimensional structures. NMR data revealed the conformational changes, and crystallographic studies clearly established the precise structures at each stage.Entities:
