Crown Ether-Magnesium Ion Complexes: A Reliable Theoretical Estimation of Host-Guest Interaction and Binding Energies in a Solvent.

Metal ion detection is of paramount importance for health monitoring. The host should properly accommodate the desired ion and be selective with respect to other potential guests, which makes devising ion sensors a demanding task. Recently (Phys.

Density functional theory study of crown ether-magnesium complexes: from a solvated ion to an ion trap.

Metal ion detection rests on host-guest recognition. We propose a theoretical protocol for designing an optimal trap for a desired metal cation. A host for magnesium ions was sought for among derivatives of crown ethers 12-crown-4, 15-crown-5, and 18-crown-6.
