About The Book
Principles and Advances in Supramolecular Catalysis explores the emerging field of supramolecular catalysis, which plays a crucial role in biological processes like the assimilation and growth of biological products. Unlike conventional catalysis, supramolecular catalysis works on systems that go beyond molecules, mimicking natural biological catalytic processes. This book delves into how supramolecular catalytic reactions occur and how molecular interactions enable chemical reactions through vessels or specific binding sites.

The text discusses the practical applications of supramolecular catalysis in diverse fields, such as waste and hazard management, medicine, and food production. It offers fundamental insights and focuses on how these reactions can potentially be used in the future for advancing chemical, biological, and biophysical sciences and technologies.

Key Features:

• Comprehensive coverage of the fundamental and interdisciplinary aspects of supramolecular catalysis.

• Insights into mechano-chemical and stimuli-guided supramolecular catalytic reactions.

• Explores the fascinating concepts of self-replication and self-assembly facilitated by supramolecular catalysis.

• Highlights the role of metal-organic frameworks as artificial metalloenzymes in supramolecular catalytic reactions.

This book is ideal for researchers, practitioners, and students who want to explore the practical implications of supramolecular catalysis in a variety of scientific and technological fields.
