Perspectives

CHEMISTRY:
Dynamic Combinatorial Chemistry

Jean-Marie Lehn and Alexey V. Eliseev

By combining the advantages of combinatorial chemistry and supramolecular chemistry, dynamic combinatorial chemistry may become a powerful tool for drug discovery and materials science. In their Perspective, Lehn and Eliseev chart some of the recent progress in this field.

J.-M. Lehn is at ISIS, University Louis Pasteur, 67000 Strasbourg, France. E-mail: lehn@chimie.u-strasbg.fr A. V. Eliseev is at Therascope AG, Hans-Bunte-Strasse 20, 69123 Heidelberg, Germany.
