35. Because of lack of data, the affinity can not be compared; however, tris(oxazoline) 8 is believed to be the most strong receptor toward alkylammonium ions in which only weak binding forces interplay. This unusual affinity is attributed to the ideal tripodal hydrogen bonding, cation-π interactions, and hydrophobic effects.
