Cation-induced pesticide binding and release by a functionalized calix[4]arene molecular host.

ABSTRACT: Ion-controlled switchable progress is very important in many biological behaviors. Here, we reported K(+)-controlled switch, this switch system exhibited excellent carbaryl (G) binding/release by fluorescent (FL), ultraviolet-visible (UV) spectrums and (1)H NMR spectroscopy. More importantly, the K(+)-controlled G binding/release switch based on C4C5 not only in the solution, but also on the surface, promising for the application for the pesticide controlled release.
