Special Issue Information
Dear Colleague,
Supramolecular cage complexes are entering a new era in which applications are becoming the highlights of publications while the structural aspects of the metalla-assemblies are relegated to basic characterizations. Known applications for supramolecular cage complexes include sensing, cavity controlled catalysis, host-guest-chemistry, drug delivery, and soon other applications will appear. Therefore, it is with great pleasure that I’m inviting you to submit your recent contributions in the field of supramolecular cage complexes for this special issue of Materials. Review, concept and research articles are welcomed for this special issue: The overall goal being to provide to the readers an overview of the field with an emphasis on the actual and future applications of supramolecular cage complexes.
Prof. Dr. Bruno Therrien
Guest Editor
