Abstract:(Figure Presented) Molecular design: Metal-tunable octahedral nanocages that act as molecular chemosensors are generated by a new strategy (the metals can be transition metals or lanthanides). Amide groups in the supramolecular structures act as guest-accessible functional sites. These interact with glucosamine molecules and function as efficient communicators to convert the recognition information into metal-tunable chromogenic and fluorogenic responses (see picture). © 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
