Supramolecular catalysis is reviewed with an eye on heteroleptic aggregates/complexation. Since most of the current metallosupramolecular catalytic systems are homoleptic in nature, the idea of breaking/reducing symmetry has ignited a vivid search for heteroleptic aggregates that are made up by different components. Their higher degree of functional diversity and structural heterogeneity allows, as demonstrated by Nature by the multicomponent ATP synthase motor, a more detailed and refined configuration of purposeful machinery. Furthermore, (metallo)supramolecular catalysis is shown to extend beyond the single "supramolecular unit" and to reach far into the field and concepts of systems chemistry and information science.
本文着眼于杂配聚集体/络合作用对超分子催化进行了综述。由于目前大多数金属超分子催化体系本质上是同配的,打破/降低对称性的想法引发了对由不同组分构成的杂配聚集体的积极探索。正如自然界中的多组分ATP合酶马达所证明的那样,它们更高程度的功能多样性和结构异质性允许构建更详细、更精细的功能性机制。此外,(金属)超分子催化不仅局限于单个“超分子单元”,还深入到了系统化学和信息科学领域及概念之中。
