Preferred Label : supramolecular chemistry;
IUPAC definition : A field of chemistry related to species of greater complexity than molecules, that
are held together and organized by means of intermolecular interactions. The objects
of supramolecular chemistry are supermolecules and other polymolecular entities that
result from the spontaneous association of a large number of components into a specific
phase (membranes, vesicles, micelles, solid state structures i etc /i .);
