Abstract
Transport of water across cell membranes is a fundamental process for important biological functions. Herein, we focused our research on a new type of symmetrical saccharide rim-functionalized pillar[5]arene (PA-S) artificial water channels with variable pore structures. To point out the versatility of PA-S channels, we systematically varied the nature of anchoring/gate keepers d-mannoside, d-mannuronic acid, or sialic acid H-bonding groups on lateral pillar[5]arene (PA) arms, known as good membrane adhesives, to best describe the influence of the chemical structure on their transport activity. The control of hydrophobic membrane binding-hydrophilic water binding balance is an important feature influencing the channels' structuration and efficiency for a proper insertion into bilayer membranes. The glycosylated PA channels' transport performances were assessed in lipid bilayer membranes, and the channels were able to transport water at high rates (∼106-107 waters/s/channel within 1 order of magnitude as for aquaporins), serving as selective proton railways with total Na+ and K+ rejection. Molecular simulation substantiates the idea that the PAs can generate supramolecular pores, featuring hydrophilic carbohydrate gate-keepers that serve as water-sponge relays at the channel entrance, effectively absorbing and redirecting water within the channel. The present channels may be regarded as a rare biomimetic example of artificial channels presenting proton vs cation transport selectivity performances.

Abstract
A "rim-differentiated" pillar[6]arene (RD-P[6]) was obtained successfully, with the assistance of a dimeric silver trifluoroacetate template, among eight different constitutional isomers in a direct and regioselective manner. The solid-state conformation of this macrocycle could switch from the 1,3,5-alternate to a truly rim-differentiated one upon guest inclusion. This highly symmetric RD-P[6] not only hosts metal-containing molecules inside its cavity, but also can form a pillar[6]arene-C60 adduct through co-crystallization on account of donor-acceptor interactions. The development of synthetic strategies to desymmetrize pillararenes offers new opportunities for engineering complex molecular architectures and organic electronic materials.

Abstract
The many useful features possessed by pillararenes (PAs; e.g. rigid, capacious, and hydrophobic cavities, as well as exposed functional groups) have led to a tremendous increase in their popularity since their first discovery in 2008. In this Minireview, we emphasize the use of functionalized PAs and their assembled supramolecular materials in the field of catalysis. We aim to provide a fundamental understanding and mechanism of the role PAs play in catalytic process. The topics are subdivided into catalysis promoted by the PA rim/cavity, PA-based nanomaterials, and PA-based polymeric materials. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first overview on PA-based catalysis. This Minireview not only summarizes the fabrications and applications of PAs in catalysis but also anticipates future research efforts in applying supramolecular hosts in catalysis.

Abstract
Artificial water channels mimicking natural aquaporins (AQPs) can be used for selective and fast transport of water. Here, we quantify the transport performances of peralkyl-carboxylate-pillar[5]arenes dimers in bilayer membranes. They can transport ≈107 water molecules/channel/second, within one order of magnitude of the transport rates of AQPs, rejecting Na+ and K+ cations. The dimers have a tubular structure, superposing pillar[5]arene pores of 5 Å diameter with twisted carboxy-phenyl pores of 2.8 Å diameter. This biomimetic platform, with variable pore dimensions within the same structure, offers size restriction reminiscent of natural proteins. It allows water molecules to selectively transit and prevents bigger hydrated cations from passing through the 2.8 Å pore. Molecular simulations prove that dimeric or multimeric honeycomb aggregates are stable in the membrane and form water pathways through the bilayer. Over time, a significant shift of the upper vs. lower layer occurs initiating new unexpected water permeation events through toroidal pores.
