Hydrazide macrocycles as effective transmembrane channels for ammonium

Abstract

Three shape-persistent aromatic hydrazide macrocycles that bear phenylalanine tripeptide chains have been synthesized. These macrocycles can insert into lipid bilayers to form single-molecular ion channels which exhibit a high NH4+/K+ selectivity.
