Lazaro A, Valencia E, Ballester P, Rodriguez L
ACS Omega . 2025 Mar; 10(8):8665-8674. PMID: 40060794
We report the synthesis of a luminescent Pt(II) complex, , based on a "two-wall" aryl-extended calix[4]pyrrole (C[4]P). We characterize its binding properties as a receptor of methyl trioctyl ammonium chloride...

Li Y, Mirabella C, Aragay G, Ballester P
JACS Au . 2025 Feb; 5(2):902-912. PMID: 40017753
We describe the quantitative self-assembly (>90%) of a [4 + 2] octa-imine cage () in a CDCl:CDCN 9:1 solvent mixture containing 0.5% of acetic acid. Cage is based on two...

Benchimol E, Rivoli A, Kabiri M, Zhang B, Holstein J, Ballester P, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2025 Jan; 147(4):3823-3829. PMID: 39823563
Dynamically interconvertible metallo-supramolecular multicomponent assemblies, coexisting orthogonally in solution, serve as simplified mimics for complex networks found in biological systems. Building on recent advances in controlling the nonstatistical self-assembly of...

Petroselli M, Ballester P
Chemistry . 2025 Jan; e202404351. PMID: 39817356
Non-covalent interactions are present in numerous synthetic and biological systems, playing an essential role in vital life processes, such as the stabilization of proteins' structures or reversible binding in substrate-receptor...

de la Vega-Hernandez K, Suero M, Ballester P
Chem Sci . 2024 Jul; 15(28):11148. PMID: 39027269
[This corrects the article DOI: 10.1039/D4SC01816H.].

Valencia E, Ballester P
Org Biomol Chem . 2024 Jul; 22(28):5827-5834. PMID: 38957010
We describe the synthesis of two tetra-α aryl-extended calix[4]pyrroles (C[4]Ps) 4a-b bearing four terminal carboxylic groups in their -propyl chains defining the lower rims. The synthesized C[4]Ps became soluble (1-3...

de la Vega-Hernandez K, Suero M, Ballester P
Chem Sci . 2024 Jun; 15(23):8841-8849. PMID: 38873069
Cucurbit[]urils, renowned for their host-guest chemistry, are becoming versatile biomimetic receptors. Herein, we report that cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) accelerates the intramolecular Diels-Alder (IMDA) reaction for previously elusive and unreactive tertiary -methyl--(homo)allyl-2-furfurylamines...

Orlandini M, Pedrini A, Marchetti D, Li Y, Aragay G, Dalcanale E, et al.
Chemistry . 2023 Dec; 30(18):e202303715. PMID: 38158380
Post-translational modifications of lysine in histones, as methylation and acetylation, have well established functions in epigenetics and are emerging as important actors in broader biological regulation. Currently, the detection of...

Tobajas-Curiel G, Sun Q, Sanders J, Ballester P, Hunter C
Chem Commun (Camb) . 2023 Nov; 59(95):14146-14148. PMID: 37955118
Chemical double mutant cycles were used to measure the interaction of a -methyl pyridinium cation with a π-box in a calix[4]pyrrole receptor. Although the cation-π interaction is attractive (-11 kJ...

Sierra A, Bulatov E, Aragay G, Ballester P
Inorg Chem . 2023 Nov; 62(45):18697-18706. PMID: 37918439
We report the synthesis and characterization of two diastereomeric phosphoramidite calix[4]pyrrole cavitands and their corresponding gold(I) complexes, •Au(I)•Cl and •Au(I)•Cl, featuring the metal center directed inward and outward with respect...
