In order to explore the enantioselectivity of new uranyl receptors to chiral organophosphorus pesticides (COPs), we designed a novel ligand: 2-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-9-(2-hydroxyphenyl)thiopyrano[3,2-h]thiochromene-4,7-dione (HTTDN) and constructed a new receptor of Uranyl-HTTDN by complexation of HTTDN with uranyl. The complexation and enantioselectivity of Uranyl-HTTDN to COPs of R/S-methamidophos (R/S-MAPs) and R/S-acephates (R/S-APs) were studied using density functional theory (DFT) method in this paper. The results showed that in vac...
