Abstract
Acyclic molecules containing amides, ureas, and pyrrole groups have proven to be effective and selective anion-binding agents. In this Account, the structural chemistry of isophthalamide anion complexes, ortho-phenylenediamine based bis-ureas, and amidopyrroles, as well as anion-triggered deprotonation processes in neutral anion receptor systems, are discussed.
