Abstract
Metallophilicity has been widely considered to be the driving force for self-assembly of closed-shell d10 metal complexes, but this view has been challenged by recent studies showing that metallophilicity in linear d10-d10 dimers is repulsive. This is due to strong metal-metal (M-M') Pauli repulsion (Wan, Q., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 2021, 118, e2019265118). Here, we study M-M' Pauli repulsion in d10 metal clusters. Our results show that M-M' Pauli repulsion in d10 polynuclear clusters is 6-52% weaker than in similar linear d10 complexes due to the anisotropic shape of (n+1)s-nd hybridized orbitals. The overall M-M' interactions in closed-shell d10 polynuclear metal clusters remain repulsive. The effects of coordination geometry, relativistic effects, and the ligand's electronegativity on M-M' Pauli repulsion in polynuclear d10 clusters have been explored. These findings provide valuable guidance for the design and development of ligands and coordination geometries that alleviate M-M' Pauli repulsion in d10 metal cluster systems.

Abstract
Metallo-supramolecular polymers have gained increasing attention and witnessed continuous development as a vibrant new research interest in the domain of soft materials. These nonconventional polymers have found widespread application in materials and biology owing to their well-defined and diversified topologies and the distinct dynamic nature of the metallosupramolecular interactions against various stimuli. Because of the intriguing redox, photonic, electronic, and magnetic properties, these stimuli-responsive supramolecular structures have attracted considerable interest for optoelectronic device fabrication. However, it still remains challenging to develop stimuli responsive systems with offbeat applications. Furthermore, achieving spatiotemporal control remains elusive with thermoresponsive and sono-responsive metallosupramolecular polymers, which encounter the disadvantage of poor precision control. Additionally, controlling the morphology of these soft materials on the mesoscale, both in solution and on substrates, has many challenges. In this review, we discuss the recent developments and future directions for the construction of stimuli responsive metallosupramolecular systems targeting practical applications. Furthermore, we discuss the synthetic methodologies that have been used to regulate the mesoscale morphology of these materials, such as coordination modulation and pseudomorphic replication. Finally, we briefly cover the burgeoning field of programmed synthesis of metallosupramolecular polymers, emphasizing techniques, such as living polymerization and chemical fuel-driven transiently active systems, which we believe will be the major research directions in the future.

Abstract
Although square-planar Pt(II) complexes are well-known to self-assemble into supramolecules via noncovalent intermolecular Pt···Pt and/or π-π interactions, the self-assembly of dicationic Pt(II) complexes was scarce due to the electrostatic repulsive force. Herein, a series of dicationic diimine bis(N-heterocyclic allenylidene) Pt(II) complexes were synthesized and characterized. Close Pt···Pt and/or π-π contacts are observed in the crystals of these complexes. In particular, complexes 1·2PF6 and 2·2PF6 exhibit one-dimensional packing with extended Pt···Pt contacts of 3.302 and 3.240 Å, respectively. The photophysical properties of these complexes in the solution and solid state were investigated. NIR emission was recorded for complexes 1·2PF6 (λmax = 950 nm) and 2·2PF6 (λmax = 855 nm) in the solid state at 298 K. To explore the aggregate behaviors of these complexes, the counteranion PF6- was exchanged to the large lipophilic anion 2,3,4-tris(dodecyloxy)benzene sulfonate (LA-) and the hydrophilic anion Cl-. Complexes 1·2LA and 2·2LA or 1·2Cl and 2·2Cl could self-assemble with Pt···Pt and/or π-π interactions in the nonpolar or aqueous solutions as well. Further increasing the concentration of 1·2Cl and 2·2Cl in aqueous solution, chromonic mesophases with NIR emission (λmax = 988 nm) were obtained. DFT and TD-DFT calculations were performed to gain deep insight into the dication-dication packings and photophysical properties of the complexes. The σ-donating as well as π-accepting character of the N-heterocyclic allenylidene ligand endows complexes with rigid and electron-delocalized coplanar features, which are conducive to achieving the self-assembling processes associated with Pt···Pt and/or π-π interactions.

Abstract
After more than three decades of extensive investigations on supramolecular polymers, strategies for self-limiting growth still remain challenging. Herein, we exploit a new V-shaped monomer design to achieve anticooperatively formed oligomers with superior robustness and high luminescence. In toluene, the monomer-oligomer equilibrium is shifted to the monomer side, enabling the elucidation of the molecular packing modes and the resulting (weak) anticooperativity. Steric effects associated with an antiparallel staircase organization of the dyes are proposed to outcompete aromatic and unconventional B-F⋅⋅⋅H-N/C interactions, restricting the growth at the stage of oligomers. In methylcyclohexane (MCH), the packing modes and the anticooperativity are preserved; however, pronounced solvophobic and chain-enwrapping effects lead to thermally ultrastable oligomers. Our results shed light on understanding anticooperative effects and restricted growth in self-assembly.

Abstract
Controlling the kinetic processes of self-assembly and switching their kinetic properties according to the changes in external environments are crucial concepts in the field of supramolecular polymers in water for biological and biomedical applications. Here we report a new self-assembling amphiphilic 4-aminoquinoline (4-AQ)-tetraphenylethene (TPE) conjugate that exhibits kinetically controllable stepwise self-assembly and has the ability of switching its kinetic nature in response to pH. The self-assembly process of the 4-AQ amphiphile comprises the formation of sphere-like nanoparticles, a transition to short nanofibers, and their growth to long nanofibers with ∼1 μm length scale at room temperature (RT). The timescale of the self-assembly process differs according to the pH-responsivity of the 4-AQ moiety in a weakly acidic to neutral pH range. Therefore, after aging for 24 h at RT, the 4-AQ amphiphile forms metastable short nanofibers at pH 5.5, while it forms thermodynamically favored long nanofibers at pH 7.4. Moreover, the modulation of nanofiber growth proceeding spontaneously at RT was achieved by switching the kinetic pathway through changing the pH between 7.4 and 5.5.

Abstract
Supramolecular polymers exhibit well-controlled dynamics with fascinating capacity for remodeling, self-healing, and stimuli-responsiveness. Supramolecular kinetics of non-covalent bonds is a dominant control handle among the relevant factors to tailor dynamics of supramolecular polymers. This Review focuses on elucidating how supramolecular kinetics dictates the polymer dynamics in supramolecular polymer systems. The ways to tailor supramolecular kinetics are firstly examined as prerequisites for structure-activity study of supramolecular polymers. We next discuss the role of supramolecular kinetics in supramolecular polymers under different polymer architectures by the combination of both of theoretical and experimental studies. Finally, we conclude by discussing the existing challenges and opportunities in the current studies.

Abstract
This article reports supramolecular polymerization of two bis-amide functionalized naphthalene-diimide (NDI) building blocks (NDI-L and NDI-C) in two solvents, namely n-heptane (Hep) and methylcyclohexane (MCH). NDI-L and NDI-C differ only by the peripheral hydrocarbon wedges, consisting of linear C7 chains or cyclic methylcyclohexane rings, respectively. UV/Vis and FTIR spectroscopy studies reveal distinct internal order and H-bonding pattern for NDI-L and NDI-C aggregates irrespective of the solvent system, indicating the dominant role of the intrinsic packing parameters of the individual building block, possibly influenced by the peripheral steric crowding. However, NDI-L produces a significantly stronger gel in Hep compared to MCH as evident from the rheological and thermal properties. In contrast, NDI-C exhibits a clear preference for MCH, producing gel with moderate strength but in Hep it fails to produce 1D morphology or gelation. All-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulation studies corroborate with the experimental observation and provide the rationale for the observed solvent-shape effect by revealing a quantitative estimate regarding the thermodynamics of self-assembly in these four combinations. Such clear-cut shape-matching effect (between the peripheral hydrocarbon wedge and the solvent system) unambiguously support a direct participation of the solvent molecules during supramolecular polymerization and presence of a closely-adhered solvent shell around the supramolecular polymers, similar to the first layer of water molecules around the protein surface. Solvent induced CD experiments support this hypothesis as induced CD band was observed only from a chiral co-solvent of matching shape. This is reconfirmed by the higher de-solvation temperature of the shape-matching NDI/solvent system combination compared to the shape mis-match combination in variable temperature UV/Vis experiments, revealing transformation to a different aggregate at higher temperatures rather than disassembly to the monomer for all four combinations.

Abstract
Herein, we report the rich morphological and conformational versatility of a biologically active peptide (PEP-1), which follows diverse self-assembly pathways to form up to six distinct nanostructures and up to four different secondary structures through subtle modulation in pH, concentration and temperature. PEP-1 forms twisted β-sheet secondary structures and nanofibers at pH 7.4, which transform into fractal-like structures with strong β-sheet conformations at pH 13.0 or short disorganized elliptical aggregates at pH 5.5. Upon dilution at pH 7.4, the nanofibers with twisted β-sheet secondary structural elements convert into nanoparticles with random coil conformations. Interestingly, these two self-assembled states at pH 7.4 and room temperature are kinetically controlled and undergo a further transformation into thermodynamically stable states upon thermal annealing: whereas the twisted β-sheet structures and corresponding nanofibers transform into 2D sheets with well-defined β-sheet domains, the nanoparticles with random coil structures convert into short nanorods with α-helix conformations. Notably, PEP-1 also showed high biocompatibility, low hemolytic activity and marked antibacterial activity, rendering our system a promising candidate for multiple bio-applications.

Abstract
This article reveals 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) regulated pathway selectivity in the supramolecular polymerization of a naphthalene-diimide derivative (NDI-1), appended with a carboxylic acid group. In decane, NDI-1 produces ill-defined aggregate (Agg-1) due to different H-bonding motifs of the -COOH group. With one mole equivalent DMAP, the NDI-1/DMAP complex introduces new nucleation condition and exhibits a cooperative supramolecular polymerization producing J-aggregated fibrillar nanostructure (Agg-2). With 10 % DMAP and fast cooling (10 K/min), similar nucleation and open chain H-bonding with the free monomer in an anti-parallel arrangement produces identical J-aggregate (Agg-2a). With 2.5 % DMAP and slow cooling (1 K/min), a distinct nucleation and supramolecular polymerization pathway emerge leading to the thermodynamically controlled Agg-3 with face-to-face stacking and 2D-morphology. Slow cooling with 5-10 % DMAP produces a mixture of Agg-2a and Agg-3. Computational modelling studies provide valuable insights into the internal order and the pathway complexity.

Abstract
Halogens play a crucial role in numerous natural processes and synthetic materials due to their unique physicochemical properties and the diverse interactions they can engage in. In the field of supramolecular polymerization, however, halogen effects remain poorly understood, and investigations have been restricted to halogen bonding or the inclusion of polyfluorinated side groups. Recent contributions from our group have revealed that chlorine ligands greatly influence molecular packing and pathway complexity phenomena of various metal complexes. These results prompted us to explore the role of the halogen nature on supramolecular polymerization, a phenomenon that has remained unexplored to date. To address this issue, we have designed a series of archetypal bispyridyldihalogen PtII complexes bearing chlorine (1), bromine (2), or iodine (3) and systematically compared their supramolecular polymerization in nonpolar media using various experimental methods and theory. Our studies reveal a remarkably different supramolecular polymerization for the three compounds, which can undergo two competing pathways with either slipped (kinetic) or parallel (thermodynamic) molecular packing. The halogen exerts an inverse effect on the energetic levels of the two self-assembled states, resulting in a single thermodynamic pathway for 3, a transient kinetic species for 2, and a hidden thermodynamic state for 1. This seesaw-like bias of the energy landscape can be traced back to the involvement of the halogens in weak N-H···X hydrogen-bonding interactions in the kinetic pathway, whereas in the thermodynamic pathway the halogens are not engaged in the stabilizing interaction motif but rather amplify solvophobic effects.

Abstract
Helical folding of randomly coiled linear polymers is an essential organization process not only for biological polypeptides but also for synthetic functional polymers. Realization of this dynamic process in supramolecular polymers (SPs) is, however, a formidable challenge because of their inherent lability of main chains upon changing an external environment that can drive the folding process (e.g., solvent, concentration, and temperature). We herein report a photoinduced reversible folding/unfolding of rosette-based SPs driven by photoisomerization of a diarylethene (DAE). Temperature-controlled supramolecular polymerization of a barbiturate-functionalized DAE (open isomer) in nonpolar solvent results in the formation of intrinsically curved, but randomly coiled, SPs due to the presence of defects. Irradiation of the randomly coiled SPs with UV light causes efficient ring-closure reaction of the DAE moieties, which induces helical folding of the randomly coiled structures into helicoidal ones, as evidenced by atomic force microscopy and small-angle X-ray scattering. The helical folding is driven by internal structure ordering of the SP fiber that repairs the defects and interloop interaction occurring only for the resulting helicoidal structure. In contrast, direct supramolecular polymerization of the ring-closed DAE monomers by temperature control affords linearly extended ribbon-like SPs lacking intrinsic curvature that are thermodynamically less stable compared to the helicoidal SPs. The finding represents an important concept applicable to other SP systems; that is, postpolymerization (photo)reaction of preorganized kinetic structures can lead to more thermodynamically stable structures that are inaccessible directly through temperature-controlled protocols.

Abstract
Programming the organization of π-conjugated systems into nanostructures of defined dimensions is a requirement for the preparation of functional materials. Herein, we have achieved high-precision control over the self-assembly pathways and fiber length of an amphiphilic BODIPY dye in aqueous media by exploiting a programmable hydrogen bonding lock. The presence of a (2-hydroxyethyl)amide group in the target BODIPY enables different types of intra- vs. intermolecular hydrogen bonding, leading to a competition between kinetically controlled discoidal H-type aggregates and thermodynamically controlled 1D J-type fibers in water. The high stability of the kinetic state, which is dominated by the hydrophobic effect, is reflected in the slow transformation to the thermodynamic product (several weeks at room temperature). However, this lag time can be suppressed by the addition of seeds from the thermodynamic species, enabling us to obtain supramolecular polymers of tuneable length in water for multiple cycles.

Abstract
The use of crystallization as a tool to control the self-assembly of polymeric and molecular amphiphiles in solution is attracting growing attention for the creation of non-spherical nanoparticles and more complex, hierarchical assemblies. In particular, the seeded growth method termed living crystallization-driven self-assembly (CDSA) has been established as an ambient temperature and potentially scalable platform for the preparation of low dispersity samples of core-shell fiber-like or platelet micellar nanoparticles. Significantly, this method permits predictable control of size, and access to branched and segmented structures where functionality is spatially-defined. Living CDSA operates under kinetic control and shows many analogies with living chain-growth polymerizations of molecular organic monomers that afford well-defined covalent polymers of controlled length except that it covers a much longer length scale (ca. 20 nm to 10 μm). The method has been applied to a rapidly expanding range of crystallizable polymeric amphiphiles, which includes block copolymers and charge-capped homopolymers, to form assemblies with crystalline cores and solvated coronas. Living CDSA seeded growth methods have also been transposed to a wide variety of π-stacking and hydrogen-bonding molecular species that form supramolecular polymers in processes termed "living supramolecular polymerizations". In this article we outline the main features of the living CDSA method and then survey the promising emerging applications for the resulting nanoparticles in fields such as nanomedicine, colloid stabilization, catalysis, optoelectronics, information storage, and surface functionalization.

Abstract
Most of the supramolecular structures lack accuracy at the macroscopic scale because of their spontaneous uncontrolled self-assembly. Although significant progress has been made in understanding the pros and cons of various directional noncovalent interactions and their specific molecular recognition ability, it is only in the recent past that the focus has been shifted toward controlling the dimension, dispersity, and other macroscopic properties of supramolecular assemblies. In this context, recent examples encompass various external stimuli to gain the structural precision in supramolecular assembly, among which light-triggered supramolecular assembly has gained significant interest as it is reagent free and endows the possibility of the controlled synthesis of supramolecular assemblies via manipulation of the light energy, irradiation time, or spatial control. This mini-review highlights representative recent examples of phototriggered supramolecular assemblies (from the monomer or another type of assembly) by removal of a photolabile protecting group, photoisomerization, or other methods of photoactivation of a dormant building block.

Seeded supramolecular polymerization of cystine-based dimeric diamides with aromatic substituents at the C- and N-termini was achieved in aqueous media. Theoretical and spectroscopic studies reveal that the terminal groups play crucial roles in slowing spontaneous assembly through formation of a folded conformation and guiding molecular alignment in the aggregated state.

Abstract
Control over the photochemical outcome of photochromic molecules in solution represents a major challenge, as photoexcitation often leads to multiple competing photochemical and/or supramolecular pathways resulting in complex product mixtures. Herein, we demonstrate precise and efficient control over the photochemical behaviour of cyanostilbenes in solution using a straightforward solvent-controlled approach based on supramolecular polymerization. To this end, we designed a π-extended cyanostilbene bolaamphiphile that exhibits tuneable solvent-dependent photochemical behaviour. Photoirradiation of the system in a monomeric state (in organic solvents) exclusively leads to a highly reversible and efficient E/Z photoisomerization, whereas a nearly quantitative [2 + 2] photocycloaddition into a single cyclobutane (anti head-to-tail) occurs in aqueous solutions. These results can be rationalized by a highly regular and preorganized antiparallel J-type arrangement of the cyanostilbene units that is driven by aqueous supramolecular polymerization. The presented concept demonstrates a novel approach towards solvent-selective and environmentally friendly photochemical transformations, which is expected to broaden the scope of supramolecular polymerization.

Abstract
The creation of 1D π-conjugated nanofibers with precise control and optimized optoelectronic properties is of widespread interest for applications as nanowires. "Living" crystallization-driven self-assembly (CDSA) is a seeded growth method of growing importance for the preparation of uniform 1D fiber-like micelles from a range of crystallizable polymeric amphiphiles. However, in the case of polythiophenes, one of the most important classes of conjugated polymer, only limited success has been achieved to date using block copolymers as precursors. Herein, we describe studies of the living CDSA of phosphonium-terminated amphiphilic poly(3-hexylthiophene)s to prepare colloidally stable nanofibers. In depth studies of the relationship between the degree of polymerization and the self-assembly behavior permitted the unveiling of the energy landscape of the living CDSA process. On the basis of the kinetic and thermodynamic insight provided, we have been able to achieve an unprecedented level of control over the length of low dispersity fiber-like micelles from 40 nm to 2.8 μm.

Abstract
In recent years, the development of sophisticated analytical tools, kinetic models and sample preparation methods has significantly advanced the field of supramolecular polymerization, where the competition of kinetic vs. thermodynamic processes has become commonplace for a wide range of building blocks. Typically, the kinetic pathways are identified in thermally controlled assembly experiments before they ultimately evolve to the thermodynamic minimum. However, there might be cases where the identification and thus the assessment of the influence of kinetic aggregates is not trivial, making the analysis of the self-assembly processes a hard task. Herein, we demonstrate that "hidden" kinetic pathways can have drastic consequences on supramolecular polymerization processes, to the point that they can even overrule thermodynamic implications. To this end, we analyzed in detail the supramolecular polymerization of a chiral PdII complex 1 that forms two competing aggregates (Agg I and Agg II) of which kinetic Agg II is formed through a "hidden" pathway, i.e. this pathway is not accessible by common thermal polymerization protocols. The hidden pathway exhibits two consecutive steps: first, Agg II is formed in a cooperative process, which subsequently evolves to clustered superstructures driven by rapid kinetics. At standard conditions, Agg II displays an extraordinary kinetic stability (>6 months), which could be correlated to its cooperative mechanism suppressing nucleation of thermodynamic Agg I. Furthermore, the fast kinetics of cluster formation sequester monomers from the equilibria in solution and prevents the system from relaxing into the thermodynamic minimum, thus highlighting the key implications of hidden pathways in governing supramolecular polymerization processes.
