Concept
Cryptands are synthetic, cage-like molecules that can encapsulate metal ions or other small molecules, enhancing their stability and selectivity in chemical reactions. They are used in supramolecular chemistry for applications such as ion transport, separation, and catalysis due to their ability to form strong, selective complexes with specific ions or molecules.
