Six novel functional monomers: 4-(4-vinylphenyl)pyridine (M1), 4′-vinylbiphenyl-4-ol (M2), N,N-dimethyl-4′-vinylbiphenyl-3-amine (M3), (4′-vinylbiphenyl-4-yl)methanol (M4), 4′-vinylbiphenyl-4-carboxylic acid (M5) and 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-4′-vinylbiphenyl-3-carboxylic acid (M6), were examined for their ability to imprint theophylline (1). Using a molecular modelling-NMR titration approach, M2 and M6 were predicted to
