“…Selected monomers were then used for polymer synthesis, but also subjected to further MD simulations together with template, cross-linker and solvent, where the observed interactions could be correlated with experimental binding data. This approach has since been adapted several times in the literature [ 329 , 330 , 331 , 332 , 333 , 334 , 335 , 336 , 337 , 338 , 339 , 340 , 341 , 342 , 343 , 344 , 345 , 346 , 347 , 348 , 349 , 350 , 351 , 352 , 353 ]. In a number of reports, similar approaches have been employed to evaluate and/or characterize monomer–template interactions using MD and docking simulations as well as variations and/or combinations thereof [ 102 , 354 , 355 , 356 , 357 , 358 , 359 , 360 , 361 , 362 , 363 , 364 , 365 , 366 , 367 , 368 , 369 , 370 , 371 , 372 , 373 , 374 , <...>…”
