Reconciling Experiment and Theory in the Use of Aryl-Extended Calix[4]pyrrole Receptors for the Experimental Quantification of Chloride-pi Interaction

<p> In this manuscript we consider from a theoretical point of view the recently reported experimental quantification of anion- interactions (the attractive force between electron deficient aromatic rings and anions) in solution using aryl extended calix[4]pyrrole receptors as model systems. E...
