The fragmentation reaction of bis-nor-seco-CB[10] with 3,5-dimethylphenol (3) delivers methylene bridged glycoluril pentamer 5 in 81% yield. The host-guest recognition properties of the previously known tetramer 4 and those of pentamer 5 and hexamer 6 toward cationic guests in water

Electron beam lithography is a powerful technique for the production of nanostructures but pattern quality depends on numerous interacting process variables. Orthogonal gradients of resist composition, baking temperatures, and development time as well as dose variations inside writing fields are
In a process reminiscent of RNA folding, acyclic glycoluril decamer (+/-)-1 undergoes double helical assembly (red/green strands) in water triggered by the neutralization of regions of high electrostatic surface potential by metal cations (Li(+), Na(+), K(+), Ca(2+)).

Methylene-bridged glycoluril dimers are the fundamental building blocks of cucurbituril (CB[6]), its homologues (CB[n]), and its derivatives. This paper describes three complementary methods for the synthesis of C- and S-shaped methylene-bridged glycoluril dimers (29-34 and 37-44). For this purpose, we
