Reaction barriers: origin and evolution
Article Abstract:
Overlap-driven coupling changes can cause enormous changes in reactivity. Strongly coupled systems with coupling constants in the range 0.8 - 0.9 are considered and the factors that control the radical-molecule barrier heights and reactivity are mentioned.

Crown ethers: sensors for ions and molecular scaffolds for materials and biological models
Article Abstract:
Crown ethers are heterocycles that, in their simplest for, are cyclic oligomers of dioxane. These compounds can be applied as sensors for ions, molecular scaffolds for materials, biological models and shows no obvious limit in novel applications.
