Abstract
A novel ZnII funnel complex that presents three phenol functions within a calix[6]arene macrocycle is described. Host-guest studies, monitored by 1H NMR spectroscopy, evaluate the impact of the replacement of three anisole moieties present in a previously described system with phenols. It is now shown that the dicationic complex is responsive to anions, whereas deprotonation of one phenol unit completely inhibits any hosting response. These properties, combined with those of the corresponding protonated ligand, allow us to obtain different molecular switches, and one of them shows guest embedment changes between four different host states, thus giving rise to a rare case of a triple molecular switch.

Abstract
The development of artificial receptors for efficient recognition of analytes in water is a challenging task. Homooxacalix[3]arene-based receptor 1, which is selective toward primary ammoniums in organic solvents, was transferred into water following two different strategies: direct solubilization and micellar incorporation. Extensive 1H NMR studies showed that recognition of ammoniums is only observed in the case of micellar incorporation, highlighting the beneficial effect of the microenvironment of the micellar core. The selectivity of the system for primary ammoniums over secondary and tertiary ones was also maintained. The hydrophobic effect plays an important role in the recognition properties, which are counterion-dependent due to the energy penalty for the dissociation of certain ammonium salts in the apolar micellar core. This study shows that the straightforward self-assembly process used for the encapsulation of artificial receptors in micelles is an efficient strategy for developing water-soluble nanosized supramolecular recognition systems.

Abstract
The binding of ammonium ions by two homooxacalix[3]arene-based receptors was studied using NMR spectroscopy and in silico methods. Both receptors are shown to endocomplex, even in a protic environment, a large variety of primary ammonium ions, including biomolecules. The binding mode is similar for all guests with the ammonium ion deeply inserted into the polyaromatic cavity and its NH3+ head nearly in the plane defined by the three oxygen atoms of the 18-crown-3 moiety, thus enabling it to establish three H-bonds with the ethereal macrocycle. The remarkable electronic, size, and shape complementarity between primary ammonium ions and the two cavity-based receptors leads to an unprecedented specificity for primary ammonium ions over secondary, tertiary, and quaternary ones. These binding properties were exploited for the selective liquid-liquid extraction of primary ammonium salts from water and for the selective recognition of lysine-containing peptides, opening new perspectives in the field of peptide sensing.

Abstract
The straightforward synthesis of a new hexahomotrioxacalix[3]arene-based ligand capped by a tren subunit was developed and the binding properties of the corresponding zinc complex were explored by NMR spectroscopy. Similarly to the closely related calix[6]tren-based systems, the homooxacalixarene core ensures the mononuclearity of the zinc complex and the metal center displays a labile coordination site for exogenous guests. However, very different host-guest properties were observed: i) in CDCl3 , the zinc complex strongly binds a water molecule and is reluctant to recognize other neutral guests, ii) in CD3 CN, the exo-coordination of anions prevails. Thus, in strong contrast to the calix[6]tren-based systems, the coordination of neutral guests that thread through the small rim and fill the polyaromatic cavity was not observed. This unique behaviour is likely due to the fact that the 18-membered ethereal macrocycle is too small to let a molecule threading through it. This work illustrates the key role played by the second coordination sphere in the binding properties of metal complexes.

Abstract
Halide photoredox chemistry is of both practical and fundamental interest. Practical applications have largely focused on solar energy conversion with hydrogen gas, through HX splitting, and electrical power generation, in regenerative photoelectrochemical and photovoltaic cells. On a more fundamental level, halide photoredox chemistry provides a unique means to generate and characterize one electron transfer chemistry that is intimately coupled with X-X bond-breaking and -forming reactivity. This review aims to deliver a background on the solution chemistry of I, Br, and Cl that enables readers to understand and utilize the most recent advances in halide photoredox chemistry research. These include reactions initiated through outer-sphere, halide-to-metal, and metal-to-ligand charge-transfer excited states. Kosower's salt, 1-methylpyridinium iodide, provides an early outer-sphere charge-transfer excited state that reports on solvent polarity. A plethora of new inner-sphere complexes based on transition and main group metal halide complexes that show promise for HX splitting are described. Long-lived charge-transfer excited states that undergo redox reactions with one or more halogen species are detailed. The review concludes with some key goals for future research that promise to direct the field of halide photoredox chemistry to even greater heights.
