Work on Molecular Interactions Graces the Cover of Chemical Science

Our latest work on the importance of CH-π interactions in governing the supramolecular structures that are formed by carbohydrate amphiphiles has been selected as the cover issue for Chemical Science. The cover plays on the arrangement of the C–H bonds to the π systems and spells out the interactions in jelly (the carbohydrate amphiphiles self-assemble into a […]
