This is a thorough review of early work (1990-1997) in combinatorial host-guest chemistry, tracing the development of libraries through small molecules, libraries of ligands and combinatorial receptors.

As part of a continuing effort to create sizable small-molecule libraries through the functionalization of a structural core, a xanthene-based library is assayed for binding to DNA. The most active compounds are determined through deconvolution with smaller sublibraries.

J Am Chem Soc 1998, 120:8319-8327. The 1,3-hydroxyamine motif previously shown to complex phosphodiesters is expanded by combinatorial derivatization of an aminoglucopyranoside core. Surface plasmon resonance was used to determine binding to several RNA molecules.

Protein surface recognition was accomplished by a receptor with variant cyclic peptides attached to a calixarene core. Active molecules inhibit the action of chymotrypsin, presumably by binding near the active site and blocking substrate approach.

An already elegant receptor design is improved by attaching fluorescent labels. Detection is accomplished by visual observation, as receptors will only fluoresce when bound to substrate.

The most enantioselective receptors in a resin-bound library are detected through color visualization with dyed, racemic, solution-phase guests . Those that bind one enantiomer turn red, while those that bind the other turn blue.

A small dynamic library was formed by dimerization of cyclic tetraamides through a disulfide bond. The equilibrium mixture of dimers is shifted by addition of a guest that selectively binds one dimer.
