Molecular recognition: Dynamic combinatorial libraries (DCLs) exploiting multivalency effects and metal coordination have been employed for carbohydrate-protein recognition. The interaction of a three-component DCL based on 2,2'-bipyridine (bipy)-Fe(II) complexes with concanavalin A (ConA; see scheme) results in enhanced binding by multivalent presentation with a bias towards mannose-containing library components.
