In this work, a new version of macrocyclic arenes, namely geminiarene, has been designed and synthesized for guest complexation and chlorobenzene/chlorocyclohexane mixture separation with excellent dual selectivity. Due to its unique dual/gemini conformational feature, not only chlorocyclohexane can...
