Abstract
In this review, we summarize various site-selective reactions mediated by molecular containers. The emphasis is on those reactions that give different product distributions on the potential reactive sites inside the containers than they do outside, free in solution. Specific cases include site-selective cycloaddition and addition of arenes, reduction of epoxides, α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, azides, halides and alkenes, oxidation of remote C-H bonds and alkenes, and substitution reactions involving ring-opening cyclization of epoxides, nucleophilic substitution of allylic chlorides, and hydrolysis reactions. The product selectivity is interpreted as the consequence of the space shape and environment inside the container. The containers include supramolecular structures self-assembled through metal/ligand interactions or hydrogen bonding and open-ended covalent structures such as cyclodextrins and cavitands. Challenges and prospects for the future are also provided.

Abstract
![]()
Spatial sequestration
of molecules is a prerequisite for the complexity
of biological systems, enabling the occurrence of numerous, often
non-compatible chemical reactions and processes in one cell at the
same time. Inspired by this compartmentalization concept, chemists
design and synthesize artificial nanocontainers (capsules and cages)
and use them to mimic the biological complexity and for new applications
in recognition, separation, and catalysis. Here, we report the formation
of large closed-shell species by interactions of well-known polyphenolic
macrocycles with anions. It has been known since many years that C-alkyl
resorcin[4]arenes (R4C) and C-alkyl pyrogallol[4]arenes
(P4C) narcissistically self-assemble in nonpolar solvents
to form hydrogen-bonded capsules. Here, we show a new interaction
model that additionally involves anions as interacting partners and
leads to even larger capsular species. Diffusion-ordered spectroscopy
and titration experiments indicate that the anion-sealed species have
a diameter of >26 Å and suggest stoichiometry (M)6(X–)24 and tight ion pairing
with cations. This self-assembly is effective in a nonpolar environment
(THF and benzene but not in chloroform), however, requires initiation
by mechanochemistry (dry milling) in the case of non-compatible solubility.
Notably, it is common among various polyphenolic macrocycles (M) having diverse geometries and various conformational lability.

Abstract
The present review compiles the advances in the dendritic catalysis within the last two decades, in particular concerning heterogeneous dendrimer-based catalysts and their and application in various processes, such as hydrogenation, oxidation, cross-coupling reactions, etc. There are considered three main approaches to the synthesis of immobilized heterogeneous dendrimer-based catalysts: (1) impregnation/adsorption on silica or carbon carriers; (2) dendrimer covalent grafting to various supports (silica, polystyrene, carbon nanotubes, porous aromatic frameworks, etc.), which may be performed in a divergent (as a gradual dendron growth on the support) or convergent way (as a grafting of whole dendrimer to the support); and (3) dendrimer cross-linking, using transition metal ions (resulting in coordination polymer networks) or bifunctional organic linkers, whose size, polarity, and rigidity define the properties of the resulted material. Additionally, magnetically separable dendritic catalysts, which can be synthesized using the three above-mentioned approaches, are also considered. Dendritic catalysts, synthesized in such ways, can be stored as powders and be easily separated from the reaction medium by filtration/centrifugation as traditional heterogeneous catalysts, maintaining efficiency as for homogeneous dendritic catalysts.

Abstract
With the rapid development of materials science, porous organic polymers (POPs) have received remarkable attentions because of their unique properties such as the exceptionally high surface area and flexible molecular design. The ability to incorporate specific functions in a precise manner makes POPs promising platforms for a myriad of applications in molecular adsorption, separation, and catalysis. Therefore, many different types of POPs have been rationally designed and synthesized to expand the scope of advanced materials, endowing them with distinct structures and properties. Recently, supramolecular macrocycles with excellent host-guest complexation abilities are emerging as powerful crosslinkers for developing novel POPs with hierarchical structures and improved performance, which can be well-organized at different spatial scales. Macrocycle-based POPs could have unusual porous, adsorptive, and optical properties when compared to their nonmacrocycle-incorporated counterparts. This cooperation provides valuable insights for the molecular-level understanding of skeletal complexity and diversity. Here, the research advances of macrocycle-based POPs are aptly summarized by showing their syntheses, properties, and applications in terms of separation, sensing, and catalysis. Finally, the current challenging issues in this exciting research field are delineated and a comprehensive outlook is offered for their future directions.

Abstract
Radical chemistry and host-guest chemistry have each developed rapidly over the past decades and their intersection offers an attractive opportunity for modern applications. Radicals can be introduced into the frameworks of supramolecular hosts or radicals can be guests, generated in and confined to host containers. In this highlight we outline research achievements in both approaches, photoinduced and external reagent-initiated radicals in the host. Specific topics include rearrangement and fragmentation reactions, hydrocarbon oxidation and alkyl halide reductions of molecules confined to various supramolecular complexes. Applications to challenging problems in chemical synthesis are suggested.

Abstract
AbstractThe present review describes the most relevant advances dealing with supramolecular catalysis in which metalloporphyrins are employed as substrate-recognition sites in the second coordination sphere of the catalyst. The kinetically labile interaction between metalloporphyrins (typically, those derived from zinc) and nitrogen- or oxygen-containing substrates is energetically comparable to the non-covalent interactions (i.e., hydrogen bonding) found in enzymes enabling substrate preorganization. Much inspired from host–guest phenomena, the catalytic systems described in this account display unique activities, selectivities and action modes that are difficult to reach by applying purely covalent strategies.

Abstract
Simple enough to be understood and complex enough to be revealing, cascade cyclizations of diepoxides are introduced as new tools to characterize supramolecular catalysis. Decoded product fingerprints are provided for a consistent set of substrate stereoisomers, and shown to report on chemo-, diastereo- and enantioselectivity, mechanism and even autocatalysis. Application of the new tool to representative supramolecular systems reveals, for instance, that pnictogen-bonding catalysis is not only best in breaking the Baldwin rules but also converts substrate diastereomers into completely different products. Within supramolecular capsules, new cyclic hemiacetals from House–Meinwald rearrangements are identified, and autocatalysis on anion–π catalysts is found to be independent of substrate stereochemistry. Decoded product fingerprints further support that the involved epoxide-opening polyether cascade cyclizations are directional, racemization-free, and interconnected, at least partially. The discovery of unique characteristics for all catalysts tested would not have been possible without decoded cascade cyclization fingerprints, thus validating the existence and significance of privileged platforms to elucidate supramolecular catalysis. Once decoded, cascade cyclization fingerprints are easily and broadly applicable, ready for use in the community. Hyperresponsive XL product space identifies polyether cascade fingerprinting as an attractive tool to elucidate supramolecular catalysis, including pnictogen-bonding, capsule and anion–π catalysts.![]()

Abstract
Natural enzymes control the intrinsic reactivity of chemical reactions in the natural environment, giving only the necessary products. In recent years, challenging research on the reactivity control of terpenes with structural diversity using artificial host compounds that mimic such enzymatic reactions has been actively pursued. A typical example is the acid-catalyzed olefin isomerization of (+)-limonene, which generally gives a complex mixture due to over-isomerization to thermodynamically favored isomers. Herein we report a highly controlled conversion of (+)-limonene by kinetic suppression of over-isomerization in a confined space of a porous metal–macrocycle framework (MMF) equipped with a Brønsted acid catalyst. The terminal double bond of (+)-limonene migrated to one neighbor, preferentially producing terpinolene. This reaction selectivity was in stark contrast to the homogeneous acid-catalyzed reaction in bulk solution and to previously reported catalytic reactions. X-ray structural analysis and examination of the reaction with adsorption inhibitors suggest that the reactive substrates may bind non-covalently to specific positions in the confined space of the MMF, thereby inhibiting the over-isomerization reaction. The nanospaces of the MMF with substrate binding ability are expected to enable highly selective synthesis of a variety of terpene compounds. A porous metal–macrocycle framework (MMF) equipped with a Brønsted acid catalyst in nanochannels enables highly selective isomerization of limonene to terpinolene by kinetically suppressing over-isomerization at confined acid sites.![]()

Abstract
Chiral pyrrolidine derivatives are important building blocks for natural product synthesis. Carbonyl olefin metathesis has recently emerged as a powerful tool for the construction of such building blocks from chiral amino acid derivatives. Here, we demonstrate that the supramolecular resorcinarene catalyst enables access to chiral 2,5-dihydropyrroles under Brønsted acid catalysis. Moreover, this catalytic system even tolerated Lewis-basic-protecting groups like mesylates that are not compatible with alternative catalysts. As expected for conversion inside a closed cavity, the product yield and selectivity depended on the size of the substrates.

We report the synthesis and characterization of two water-soluble container compounds (cavitand hosts) with rigidified open ends. One cavitand uses four (CH2)4's as spacers to bridge the adjacent walls, while another cavitand uses four CH2CH2OCH2CH2's bridges and features a wider open end. The spacers preorganize the deep cavitands into vase-like, receptive shapes and prevent their unfolding to the unreceptive kite-like conformation. Cycloalkane guests (C6-C8) and small n-alkanes (C5-C7) form 1:1 complexes with the cavitands and move freely in the cavitands' spaces. Hydrophilic compounds 1,4-dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, tetrahydropyran, pyridine, and 1-methylimidazole also showed good binding affinity to the new cavitands. Longer alkanes (C11-C14) and n-alcohols (C11-C16) are taken up with a -CH3 group fixed at the bottom of the cavity and the groups near the rim in compressed conformations. The methylene bridges appear to divide the cavitand into a narrow hydrophobic compartment and a broader space with exposure to the aqueous medium. Longer alkane guests (C15-C18), N,N-dimethyldioctylammonium, and dioctylamine induce the formation of capsules (2:1 host:guest complexes). The new cavitands showed selectivity for p/m-cresol isomers and xylene isomers. The cavitand with CH2CH2OCH2CH2 bridges bound long-chain α,ω-diols (C13-C15) and diamines in folded, U-shaped conformations with polar functions exposed to the aqueous medium. It was used to separate o-xylene from its isomers by using simple extraction procedures.

Abstract
The reductive elimination on [(Me3 P)2 Pt(MeOH)(CH3 )3 ]+ , 2P, complex performed in MeOH solution and inside a [Ga4 L6 ]12- metallocage are computationally analysed by mean of QM and MD simulations and compared with the mechanism of gold parent systems previously reported [Et3 PAu(MeOH)(CH3 )2 ]+ , 2Au. The comparative analysis between the encapsulated Au(III) and Pt(IV)-counterparts shows that there are no additional solvent MeOH molecules inside the cavity of the metallocage for both systems. The Gibbs energy barriers for the 2P reductive elimination calculated at DFT level are in good agreement with the experimental values for both environments. The effect of microsolvation and encapsulation on the rate acceleration are evaluated and shows that the latter is far more relevant, conversely to 2Au. Energy decomposition analysis indicates that the encapsulation is the main responsible for most of the energy barrier reduction. Microsolvation and encapsulation effects are not equally contributing for both metal systems and consequently, the reasons of the rate acceleration are not the same for both metallic systems despite the similarity between them.

Abstract
β-Keto acids, ideal surrogates of inactive ketones, play an important role in organic synthesis. The asymmetric decarboxylative reaction using β-keto acids is the one which is being studied the most. Herein we present a comprehensive review on this research topic, which is generally classified according to different catalytic systems and chiral induction modes. Additionally, some extended utilities of these methodologies for synthesizing bioactive compounds were also summarized. This review will facilitate the synthetic community to understand the role of β-keto acids in asymmetric reactions, providing many new opportunities for further exploration in this field.

Abstract
An uncharged, water-soluble per-ethylene-glycol pillar[5]arene derivative (1) was synthesized and its aggregation mode, host-guest chemistry in water and extraction ability was explored. Compound 1 is a liquid at room temperature; in water, limited self-aggregation occurred at high concentrations as deduced from diffusion NMR and dynamic light scattering. Compound 1 forms pseudo-rotaxane-like 1 : 1 host-guest complexes with 1,ω-di-substituted alkanes with association constants on the order of 103 -104 m-1 . Interestingly, NMR experiments showed that the guest location relative to the host ring system differs among the different complexes. In proof-of-concept experiments, compound 1 was shown to extract structurally related organic compounds from benzene into water with significant selectivity. Compound 1, which is a liquid at room temperature and has only limited interactions with its side arms, can, in principle, be regarded as a complement to or as a kind of type I porous liquid.

Abstract
Although porous organic cages (POCs), particularly imine-linked (C[double bond, length as m-dash]N) ones, have advanced significantly over the last few decades, the reversible nature of imine linkages makes them prone to hydrolysis and structural collapse, severely limiting their applications under moist or water conditions. Herein, seven water-stable hydrazone-linked (C[double bond, length as m-dash]N-N) POCs are prepared through a simple coupling of the same supramolecular tetraformylresorcin[4]arene cavitand with different dihydrazide linkers. Their structures are all determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, demonstrating rich structural diversity from the [2 + 4] lantern, [3 + 6] triangular prism, and unprecedented [4 + 8] square prism to the extra-large [6 + 12] octahedron. In addition, they respectively exhibit tunable window diameters and cavity volumes ranging from about 5.4 to 11.1 nm and 580 to 6800 Å3. Moreover, their application in the water environment for pollutant removal was explored, indicating that they can effectively eliminate various types of contaminants from water, including radionuclide waste, toxic heavy metal ions, and organic micropollutants. This work demonstrates a convenient method for rationally constructing versatile robust POCs and presents their great application potentialities in water medium.

Abstract
The hexameric undecyl-resorcin[4]arene capsule (C11R6) features eight discrete structural water molecules located at the vertices of its cubic suprastructure. Combining NMR spectroscopy with classical molecular dynamics (MD), we identified and characterized two distinct species of this capsule, C11R6-A and C11R6-B, respectively featuring 8 and 15 water molecules incorporated into their respective hydrogen-bonded networks. Furthermore, we found that the ratio of the C11R6-A and C11R6-B found in solution can be modulated by controlling the water content of the sample. The importance of this supramolecular modulation in C11R6 capsules is highlighted by its ability to perform acid-catalyzed transformations, which is an emergent property arising from the hydrogen bonding within the suprastructure. We show that the conversion of C11R6-A to C11R6-B enhances the catalytic rate of a model Diels-Alder cyclization by 10-fold, demonstrating the cofactor-derived control of a supramolecular catalytic process that emulates natural enzymatic systems.

Abstract
A self-assembled Fe4L6 cage with internally oriented carboxylic acid functions was shown to catalyze a variety of dissociative nucleophilic substitution reactions that proceed via oxocarbenium ion or carbocation intermediates. The catalytic behavior of the cage was compared to that of other small acid catalysts, which illustrated large differences in reactivity of the cage-catalyzed reactions, dependent on the structure of the substrate. For example, only a 5% cage confers a 1000-fold rate acceleration of the thioetherification of vinyldiphenylmethanol when compared to the rate with free carboxylic acid surrogates but only a 52-fold acceleration in the formation of small thioacetals. Multiple factors control the variable reactivity in the host, including substrate inhibition, binding affinity, and accessibility of reactive groups once bound. Simple effective concentration increases or the overall charge of the cage does not explain the variations in reactivity shown by highly similar reactants in the host: small differences in structure can have large effects on reactivity. Reaction of large spherical guests is highly dependent on substitution, whereas flat guests are almost unaffected by size and shape differences. The cage is a promiscuous catalyst but has strong selectivity for particular substrate shapes, reminiscent of enzymatic activity.

Abstract
The octol of a new rigid, tetraarylene-bridged cavitand was investigated for self-assembly behaviour in solution. 1H and DOSY NMR spectroscopic experiments show that the cavitand readily dimerizes through an unusual seam of interdigitated hydrogen-bonds that is resistant to disruption by polar co-solvents. The well-defined cavity encapsulates small cationic guests, but not their neutral counterparts, restricting the conformation of sequestered tetraethylammonium in solution and the solid state. A robust, dimeric capsule forms quantitatively in low-polarity solvents via a seam of 8 hydrogen bonds. The resulting electron-rich cavity selectively binds small organic cations over neutral counterparts.![]()

Abstract
Exploiting anion-π interactions in catalyst design is a fascinating direction to develop new and fundamental catalysis. For the appealing yet flexible π-face activation, can two or more π-acidic surfaces be manipulated for cooperative activation to achieve efficient transformation and particularly selectivity control is highly desirable. Here, we demonstrate a supramolecular π-catalysis strategy by establishing cooperative π-face activation in a confined electron-deficient cage cavity. The catalysts have a triazine based prism-like cage core and pendant chiral base sites. Only 2 mol % of cage catalyst efficiently catalyzed the decarboxylate Mannich reactions of sulfamate-headed cyclic aldimines and a series of malonic acid half thioesters in nearly quantitative yields and up to 97 % ee, enabling an unprecedent organocatalytic approach. The supramolecular π-cavity is essential in harnessing cooperative anion-π interactions for the efficient activation and excellent selectivity control.

Abstract
NMR has been instrumental in studies of both the structure and dynamics of molecular systems for decades, so it is not surprising that NMR has played a pivotal role in the study of host-guest complexes and supramolecular systems. In this mini-review, selected examples will be used to demonstrate the added value of using (multiparametric) NMR for studying macrocycle-based host-guest and supramolecular systems. We will restrict the discussion to synthetic host systems having a cavity that can engulf their guests thus restricting them into confined spaces. So discussion of selected examples of cavitands, cages, capsules and their complexes, aggregates and polymers as well as organic cages and porous liquids and other porous materials will be used to demonstrate the insights that have been gathered from the extracted NMR parameters when studying such systems emphasizing the information obtained from somewhat less routine NMR methods such as diffusion NMR, diffusion ordered spectroscopy (DOSY) and chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) and their variants. These selected examples demonstrate the impact that the results and findings from these NMR studies have had on our understanding of such systems and on the developments in various research fields.

Abstract
Three novel thiol bearing resorcin[4]arene and pyrogallol[4]arene derivatives were synthesized. Their properties were studied with regards to self-assembly, disulfide chemistry, and Brønsted acid catalysis. This work demonstrates that (1) one aromatic thiol on the resorcin[4]arene framework is tolerated in the self-assembly process to a hexameric hydrogen bond-based capsule, (2) thio-derivatized resorcin[4]arene analogs can be covalently linked through disulfides, and (3) the increased acidity of aromatic thio-substituent is not sufficient to replace HCl as cocatalyst for capsule catalyzed terpene cyclizations.

Abstract
While the integration of supramolecular principles in catalysis attracts increasing attention, a direct comparative assessment of the resulting systems catalysts to work out distinct characteristics is often difficult. Herein is reported how the broad responsiveness of ether cyclizations to diverse inputs promises to fill this gap. Cyclizations in the confined, π-basic and Brønsted acidic interior of supramolecular capsules, for instance, are found to excel with speed (exceeding general Brønsted acid and hydrogen-bonding catalysts by far) and selective violations of the Baldwin rules (as extreme as the so far unique pnictogen-bonding catalysts). The complementary cyclization on π-acidic aromatic surfaces remains unique with regard to autocatalysis, which is shown to be chemo- and diastereoselective with regard to product-like co-catalysts but, so far, not enantioselective.

Abstract
Calix[4]resorcinarene derivatives such as C-undecylcalix[4]resorcinarene self-assemble into a hexameric capsule-like structure. This structure is expected in any apolar solvent, but we recently found a self-assembled octameric form of resorcinarene in toluene. To understand this unexpected form, we performed small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements of the octameric self-assembly. In ab initio shape reconstruction and model fitting of the SAXS profile, a core-shell spherical structure resembling a reverse micelle was found in the octameric self-assembly. The shell and core were composed of alkyl chains and resorcinol moieties, respectively. We also evaluated the temperature dependence of the octameric self-assembly. Above 95 °C, the structure began directly decomposing into unimers, implying the partial cleavage of hydrogen bonds in the octamer core. Meanwhile, below 25 °C, the spherical structure of the octamer partially transformed to a cylindrical structure. This morphological transition could be understood by packing parameter theory, which is often applied to suspected micellar structures.

Abstract
The adoption of a supramolecular approach in catalysis promises to address a number of unmet challenges, ranging from activity (unlocking of novel reaction pathways) to selectivity (alteration of the innate selectivity of a reaction, e.g. selective functionalization of C-H bonds) and regulation (switch ON/OFF, sequential catalysis, etc.). Supramolecular tools such as reversible association and recognition, pre-organization of reactants and stabilization of transition states upon binding offer a unique chance to achieve the above goals disclosing new horizons whose potential is being increasingly recognized and used, sometimes reaching the degree of ripeness for practical use. This review summarizes the main developments that have opened such new frontiers, with the aim of providing a guide to researchers approaching the field. We focus on artificial supramolecular catalysts of defined stoichiometry which, under homogeneous conditions, unlock outcomes that are highly difficult if not impossible to attain otherwise, namely unnatural reactivity or selectivity and catalysis regulation. The different strategies recently explored in supramolecular catalysis are concisely presented, and, for each one, a single or very few examples is/are described (mainly last 10 years, with only milestone older works discussed). The subject is divided into four sections in light of the key design principle: (i) nanoconfinement of reactants, (ii) recognition-driven catalysis, (iii) catalysis regulation by molecular machines and (iv) processive catalysis.

Abstract
Confinement of a catalyst can have a significant impact on catalytic performance and can lead to otherwise difficult to achieve catalyst properties. Herein, we report the design and synthesis of a novel caged catalyst system Co-G@Fe8 (Zn-L ⋅ 1)6 , which is soluble in both polar and apolar solvents without the necessity of any post-functionalization. This is a rare example of a metal-coordination cage able to bind catalytically active porphyrins that is soluble in solvents spanning a wide variety of polarity. This system was used to investigate the combined effects of the solvent and the cage on the catalytic performance in the cobalt catalyzed cyclopropanation of styrene, which involves radical intermediates. Kinetic studies show that DMF has a protective influence on the catalyst, slowing down deactivation of both [Co(TPP)] and Co-G@Fe8 (Zn-L ⋅ 1)6 , leading to higher TONs in this solvent. Moreover, DFT studies on the [Co(TPP)] catalyst show that the rate determining energy barrier of this radical-type transformation is not influenced by the coordination of DMF. As such, the increased TONs obtained experimentally stem from the stabilizing effect of DMF and are not due to an intrinsic higher activity caused by axial ligand binding to the cobalt center ([Co(TPP)(L)]). Remarkably, encapsulation of Co-G led to a three times more active catalyst than [Co(TPP)] (TOFini ) and a substantially increased TON compared to both [Co(TPP)] and free Co-G. The increased local concentration of the substrates in the hydrophobic cage compared to the bulk explains the observed higher catalytic activities.

Abstract
The advantages of the cage-to-network design strategy were demonstrated by knitting a waterwheel-like preporous molecular cage, noria, with a rigid aromatic linker to obtain a highly microporous organic polymer (NPOP, SBET: 748 ± 25 m2 g-1). The NPOP was employed for the catalytic conversion of CO2 to cyclic carbonates under solvent-free reaction conditions. Furthermore, a silver nanoparticle encapsulated NPOP exhibited remarkable catalytic activity for nitroarene reduction with excellent recyclability.

Abstract
A modular synthetic platform for the construction of flexible glycoluril-derived molecular tweezers was developed. The binding properties of four exemplary supramolecular hosts obtained via this approach towards 16 organic amines were investigated by means of 1H NMR titration. In this work, we compare the Ka values obtained this way with those of three structurally related molecular tweezers and provide a computational approach towards an explanation of the observed behavior of those novel hosts. The results showcase that certain structural modifications lead to very potent and selective binders of natural polyamines, with observed binding of spermine below 10 nM.

Abstract
Water is the dominant liquid on Earth. Despite this, the main focus of supramolecular chemistry research has been on binding and assembly events in organic solvents. This arose because it is more straightforward to synthesize organic-media-soluble hosts and because of the relative simplicity of organic solvents compared to water. Nature, however, relies on water as a solvent, and spurred by this fact, supramolecular chemists have recently been making forays into the aqueous domain to understand water-mediated non-covalent interactions. These studies can benefit from the substantial understanding of the hydrophobic effect and electrostatic interactions developed by physical chemists. Nearly 20 years ago, the Gibb group first synthesized a class of water-soluble host molecules, the deep-cavity cavitands, that possess non-polar pockets that readily bind non-polar moieties in aqueous solution and are capable of assembling into a wide range of complexes with distinct stoichiometries. As such, these amphipathic host species are ideal platforms for studying the role of negatively curved features on guest complexation and the structural requirements for guided assembly processes driven by the hydrophobic effect. Here we review the collaborative experimental and computational investigations between Gibb and Ashbaugh over the past 10 years exploring questions including the following: How does water wet/solvate the non-polar surfaces of non-polar pockets? How does this wetting control the binding of non-polar guests? How does wetting affect the binding of anionic species? How does the nature and size of a guest size impact the assembly of cavitand hosts into multimeric capsular complexes? What are the conformational motifs of guests packed within the confines of capsular complexes? How might the electrostatic environment engendered by hosts impact the properties and reactivity of internalized guests?

Abstract
The paper reports formation of exceptionally large capsular species (diameter of c. a. 30 Å) by interactions of polyphenolic macrocycles with 5-fold symmetry with anions. Pyrogallol[5]arenes and resorcin[5]arenes interact with anions via hydrogen bonds involving phenolic OH groups or aromatic CH groups. Based on NMR titration experiments, diffusion coefficients, and geometric requirements, it is postulated that the capsules have (P5H)12 (X- )60 or (R5H)12 (X- )60 stoichiometry and a unique geometry of one of the Platonic solids-a dodecahedron. The capsules exist in THF and in benzene, but not in chloroform, reflecting competitive effects in the solvation of anions. It is also demonstrated that mechanochemical pre-treatment (dry-milling) of solid samples is indispensable to initialize self-assembly in benzene.

Abstract
The traditional end-to-end cyclization of long-chain linear precursors is difficult and often unpredictable because the unfavorable entropy of macrocyclic closure allows undesired intermolecular reactions to compete. Here, we apply cavitands to the selective intramolecular aldol/dehydration reaction of long-chain α,ω-dialdehydes in aqueous solution. Hydrophobic forces drive the dialdehydes into the cavitands in folded conformations and favor macrocyclization reactions over intermolecular reactions observed in bulk solution. The macrocyclic aldol reaction products are isolated in good yields (30-85%) over a wide range (11 to 17-membered rings). Unlike conventional templates that become guests inside their assembled hosts, cavitands reverse the roles and resemble the situation in biological catalysis-the templates are hosts for guests undergoing the assisted reaction processes.

Abstract
Coordination cages encapsulate a wide variety of guests in the solution state. This ability renders them useful for applications such as catalysis and the sequestration of precious materials. A simple and general method for the immobilization of coordination cages on alumina is reported. Cage loadings are quantified via adsorption isotherms and guest displacement assays demonstrate that the adsorbed cages retain the ability to encapsulate and separate guest and non-guest molecules. Finally, a system of two cages, adsorbed on to different regions of alumina, stabilizes and separates a pair of Diels-Alder reagents. The addition of a single competitive guest results in the controlled release of the reagents, thus triggering their reaction. This method of coordination cage immobilization on solid phases is envisaged to be applicable to the extensive library of reported cages, enabling new applications based upon selective solid-phase molecular encapsulation.

Abstract
Linear alkanes are essential building blocks for natural and artificial assemblies in water. As compared with typical, linear alkane-based micelles and recent aromatic micelles, we herein develop a cycloalkane-based micelle, consisting of bent amphiphiles with two cyclohexyl frameworks. This uncommon type of micelle, with a spherical core diameter of ~ 2 nm, forms in water in a spontaneous and quantitative manner. The cycloalkane-based, hydrophobic cavity displays peculiar host abilities as follows: (i) highly efficient uptake of sterically demanding Zn(II)-tetraphenylporphyrin and rubrene dyes, (ii) selective uptake of substituted Cu(II)-phthalocyanines and spherical nanocarbons, and (iii) uptake-induced solution-state emission of [Au(I)-dimethylpyrazolate]3 in water. These host functions toward the large metal-complex and other guests studied herein remain unaccomplished by previously reported micelles and supramolecular containers. Typical micelles are molecular assemblies composed of amphiphiles bearing linear alkyl chains. Herein, the authors present an uncommon type of cycloalkane-based bent amphiphile and its micelle which encapsulates large metal- complexes with high uptake efficiency, selectivity, and emissivity in water.

Abstract
Noncovalent interactions and reversible bond formations are widely seen in natural systems for the construction of sophisticated molecular systems that perform various biological processes. Inspired by the natural systems, luminescent supramolecular systems constructed by coordination-driven self-assembly and homometallic metal-metal interations have been studied increasingly. These supramolecular systems show fascinating luminescent behaviors that are not observed from single components. This review summarizes our progress in the development of two types of unique luminescent supramolecular systems. The mononuclear Pt(II) complex units can sandwich coinage metal ions to form heteropolynuclear complexes involving heterometallic metal-metal interactions. A close proximity of the two or three different metal ions by the noncovalent forces lead to orbital overlapping among the coinage metal ions and the Pt(II) complex units, showing emission color change accompanied with structural transformation and reversible metal binding behaviors. Emissive host-guest systems consisting of mononuclear metal complexes and a hydrogen-bonded capsule are also developed, that show a unique encapsulation-induced emission enhancement (EIEE) behavior.

Abstract
Supramolecular cavitands and organic cages having a well-defined cavity and excellent host-guest complexing ability have been explored for a myriad of applications ranging from catalysis to molecular separation to drug delivery. On the other hand, porous organic polymers (POPs) having tunable porosity and a robust network structure have emerged as advanced materials for molecular storage, heterogeneous catalysis, water purification, light harvesting, and energy storage. A fruitful marriage between guest-responsive discrete porous supramolecular hosts and highly porous organic polymers has created a new interface in supramolecular chemistry and materials science, confronting the challenges related to energy and the environment. In this mini-review, we have addressed the recent advances (from 2015 to the middle of 2020) of cavitand and organic cage-based porous organic polymers for sustainable development, including applications in heterogeneous catalysis, CO2 conversion, micropollutant separation, and heavy metal sequestration from water. We have highlighted the "cavitand/cage-to-framework" design strategy and delineated the future scope of the emerging new class of porous organic networks from "preporous" building blocks.
