Our present aim is to summarize the results obtained in the design of coreceptors capable of performing molecular recognition. Complexation of two or more metal ions by various macropolycyclic ligands to form di- or polynuclear cryptates will not be considered here (see ref. [15]). The discussion will be limited to substrate recognition by ditopic coreceptors for polyatomic molecular cations and anions and to developments towards poly topic coreceptors.
