Alternatively, a competitive experiment may also be undertaken to investigate the titrant–titrand supramolecule

For example, bis(α-D-mannopyranosyl)-[60]fullerene is capable of forming a liposome-like supramolecule in aqueous media and exhibits a strong binding activity to an α-mannose-binding lectin (concanavalin A, Con A) as the result not only of carbohydrate cluster

There are some reported examples of inclusion compounds derived from TEMPO and related nitroxide radicals with
