Cover Story: Supramolecular recognition of perrhenate and pertechnetate anions is a challenging task because of their relatively large size and low charge density. In this work, the authors have designed a new family of helix-like synthetic receptors with the aim to coordinate all four oxygen atoms of the anion with the help of hydrogen bonds. Rigid and flexible helix-forming building blocks have been explored to construct the receptors. The receptor with a diphenylacetylene helix-forming subunit has been found to possess the best affinity and selectivity for perrhenate. The structures of host–guest complexes have been predicted by DFT calculations. View this paper.
