Gated molecular encapsulation : The relationship between the rate by which guest molecules enter/exit gated hosts and the rate by which gates revolve and thereby open/close the host were investigated. The results of kinetic measurements have indicated that more dynamic hosts are also more selective in trapping guests, thereby revealing an activity/selectivity relationship pertaining molecular recognition events (see figure).
