Front Cover: Thiacopillar[5]arenes in Supramolecular Assemblies and Chromogenic Detection of Aliphatic Diamines: A New Approach (Chem. Asian J. 2/2026)
Abstract
The cover picture highlights the synthesis, crystal structures, and amine recognition properties of thiacopillar[5]arenes. The chemical properties of thiocarbonate ring and phenolic ─OH enable the monomeric copillar[5]arene to visually detect 1,3-diaminopropane and 1,4-diaminobutane. The disulfide-linked bispillar[5]arene, on the other hand, exhibits color change with different amines and anions, giving no selectivity. More details can be found in the Research Article by Kumaresh Ghosh and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/asia.70397).
