Abstract
The present invention relates generally to carriers for transport of amino acid, amino acid derivatives and other biologically important molecules such as catecholamines and neurotransmitters. In particular, the present invention relates to ditopic receptor molecules that contain salicylaldimine and crown-ether subunits, and complexed to metal ions. The compounds of the present invention were shown to have efficient transport properties for zwitterions.
