A water-soluble tetralactam macrocycle with 2,6-diethoxynaphthalene groups as side walls is able to strongly bind riboflavin (Ka>107M?1) in water through hydrogen bonding and the hydrophobic effect. The encapsulated riboflavin can be stabilized by the host against photo-degradation under UV-vis irradiation, which may be harnessed to extend the shelf life of riboflavin.

A sweet center: Most carbohydrates are supremely comfortable in water. Can they be tempted to leave? Yes, if their new home satisfies all their needs. The watersoluble receptor 1 (R = polycarboxylate) provides hydrophobic surfaces (purple) for CH groups a
