Abstract

This article summarizes research activities in the Laboratory of Supramolecular Chemistry (LCS) at the EPFL. Three topics will be discussed: a) the construction of functional nanostructures by multicomponent self-assembly processes, b) the development of chemosensors using specific receptors or ensembles of cross-reactive sensors, and c) the investigation of novel synthetic procedures with organometallic catalysts.
