Light-induced cargo release from a cucurbit[8]uril host by means of a sequential logic operation

Abstract

The logically controlled and light-induced release of a tripeptide model cargo from a cucurbit[8]uril host macrocycle by means of a photoswitch was shown in water. This provides a new approach to photoresponsive and selective release in a meaningful pH window.
