The field of Supramolecular chemistry has reached a high level of
sophistication and maturity, especially in the last 5-10 years. The
sophistication is primarily evident in the highly complex chemical
architectures that have been synthesized to accomplish specific
functions such as selective binding and transport of substrates, in
catalysis, and for the formation of assemblies, to name just a few
of the applications. Many other molecular structures have been
synthesized to form unusual materials with interesting and/or
useful properties. From this point of view, the field is mature, as
would have been anticipated from its historical development,
starting in 1967 with Pedersen and the crown ethers. Since that
time, the field has evolved mainly from a synthetic organic
perspective. There are notable exceptions to this statement, but in
general it holds true that the major advances were made in the
laboratories of organic chemists with considerable topological
insight. by The design and synthesis of the molecules was also
partly guided physical insight provided by measurements and
calculations done by physical chemists. As a consequence, many
chemical systems were synthesized in relatively small amounts to
afford their full characterization but not in large enough
quantities to fully explore their intended properties or
structures. Thus in the decades of the 70's and 80's physical
chemists played an important role in guiding the future directions
in the field, providing needed structural and energetic information
and providing improved experimental designs.
