19. At this stage, it is unclear for us whether this weak interaction arises from π-π, CH-π, or van der Waals interaction, or the cooperative interaction between them. In addition, we cannot rule out the influence of the difference in the alkyl chain lengths between olefinic and non-olefinic receptors. It is more likely, however, that "olefinic substituents", which include the differences in the lengths of alkyl chains and the presence or the absence of the chain branching, influence the allosteric behavior more than other possible factors arising from the functionalization of terminal olefins.

27. Host molecules 1a-c show the higher effects on the energy difference in ΔG between olefinic and non-olefinic hosts compared to those of 2. This energy difference probably arises from the shorter distance between olefin substituents within lb and 1c, and/or to the less rotational freedom of 1 than that of 2; host molecules 1 have only one rotational axis within the structure whereas the receptors 2 have as many as three axes.
