Abstract
Biotin[6]uril hexaesters represent a new class of anionophores which operate solely through C-H···anion interactions. The use of soft H-bond donors favors the transport of less hydrophilic anions (e.g., Cl<sup>-</sup>, NO<inf>3</inf><sup>-</sup>) over hard, stongly hydrated anions (e.g., HCO<inf>3</inf><sup>-</sup> and SO<inf>4</inf><sup>2-</sup>). Especially relevant is the selectivity between chloride and bicarbonate, the major inorganic anions in biological systems.
