The goal of this extension is to understand and mimic what is going on in the “real world” of biological systems (as opposed to the laboratory) and to develop, as well as utilize, large molecular systems with new or improved properties. This has grown into a very interdisciplinary field - supramolecular chemistry, bearing on organized entities that result from the association of two or more chemical species.1 To approach these goals we need to utilize the interactions between separate molecules. Several forces are involved in these intermolecular interactions, most importantly: x hydrogen bonding, x electrostatic interactions, x ʌ-ʌ stacking interactions, x van der Waals interactions. These are the fundamental interactions we can work with, and several of them are utilized in the work described in this thesis.

Increasing levels of complexity in the molecular world. 7 1.1 Acid-Base Interactions A concept that approaches some of these interactions is the acid-base theory. In its more general form it is described by the Lewis electronic theory of acids and bases, where an acid - defined to be any species that accepts lone pair electrons - is interacting with a Lewis base - any species that donates lone pair electrons.2 When dealing with organometallic chemistry, a Lewis base can also be named a ligand, i.e., a unit that can attach to a metal center to form an aggregate known as a complex. Ligand structures have a determinant effect on the complex structures, they can stabilize metal centers, influence the reactivity and selectivity of metal complexes and determine the mechanism and rate of a reaction. Stronger bonds between the metal center and the ligands reduce the abilities of the complexes to isomerize or to decompose. The degree of conformational freedom of the ligands is reduced some- what during complex formation, resulting in a higher order of the system. The two parts of the system are both forced into a smaller number of possible conformations, making structural characterization simpler. The Brønsted-Lowry theory deals with a narrower field of the same type - just proton abstraction and donation.3 Since the correlation between metal ion complex stability and ligand basicity is well established,4 Brønsted basicities are studied in the present thesis. Base strength is also related to hydrogen bonding, which is important in drug discovery. However, hydro- gen bond acceptor strength (proton sharing) and basicity
