Abstract
The transmetalation of the digold(I) complex [Au2Cl2(dcpm)] (1) (dcpm = bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)methane) with oligophenylene diboronic acids gave the triangular macrocyclic complexes [Au2(C6H4) x (dcpm)]3 (x = 3, 4, 5) with yields of over 70%. On the other hand, when the other digold(I) complex [Au2Cl2(dppm)] (1') (dppm = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane) was used, only a negligible amount of the triangular complex was obtained. The control experiments revealed that the dcpm ligand accelerated an intermolecular Au(I)-C σ-bond-exchange reaction and that this high reversibility is the origin of the selective formation of the triangular complexes. Structural analyses and theoretical calculations indicate that the dcpm ligand increases the electrophilicity of the Au atom in the complex, thus facilitating the exchange reaction, although the cyclohexyl group is an electron-donating group. Furthermore, the oxidative chlorination of the macrocyclic gold complexes afforded a series of [n]cycloparaphenylenes (n = 9, 12, 15) in 78-88% isolated yields. The reorganization of two different macrocyclic Au complexes gave a mixture of macrocyclic complexes incorporating different oligophenylene linkers, from which a mixture of [n]cycloparaphenylenes with various numbers of phenylene units was obtained in good yields.

Abstract
The discovery of piezoelectricity in self-assembled peptide nanostructures opens an avenue to a new regime of piezoelectric materials and enables the fundamental investigation of electromechanical coupling in biomaterials. However, strategies for fabricating peptides with desired properties are still lacking. We find that a peptide-based coassembly process effectively controls the properties of peptide nanomaterials and demonstrates their application potential in nanogenerators. The composing peptides and their concentration influence the morphology, molecular property, and physical property of coassembled crystals. Compared with self-assembled diphenylalanine peptides, the coassembled peptides of diphenylalanine and phenylalanine-tryptophan show a 38% increase in piezoelectric coefficient, and the resulting harvesting device shows nearly a 3-fold increase in open-circuit voltage outputs.

Abstract
Well-studied cycloparaphenylenes (CPPs) correspond to the simplest segments of armchair CNTs, whereas the corresponding macrocyclic oligophenylene strip of zigzag CNTs is still missing. Herein, we present two series of conjugated macrocycles (CM2PP and CN2PP) containing two meta-phenylene or 2,7-naphthylene units facing each other in the strip. CM2PP and CN2PP can be regarded as the shortest cyclic primitive segments of zigzag CNTs. They were synthesized by gold-mediated dimerization and unambiguously characterized. They adopted the tubular structures and can further pack into one-dimensional supramolecular nanotubes. In particular, the supramolecular nanotube of CM2P4P mimics the CNT(9, 0) structure. Structural analysis and theoretical calculation accounted for the reduced ring strain in CM2PPs and CN2PPs. CM2PPs and CN2PPs exhibited a large optical extinction coefficient and high photoluminescence quantum yield. CN2P8P can accommodate fullerene C60, forming a Saturn-like C60@CN2P8P complex, a mimic structure of zigzag CNT peapods.

Abstract
Dications of cycloparaphenyles ([n]CPPs) are known to exhibit in-plane global aromaticity, contained in a nanobelt structure. Recently synthesized ortho and meta isomers of [n]CPPs break the radial symmetry of π structure incorporating perpendicular oriented π orbitals. Herein we set to explore the aromaticity of neutral and dicationic ortho and meta isomers of [8]CPP by dissecting the induced magnetic field to contributions of the twofold radial/perpendicular π system using delocalized canonical molecular orbitals (CMO), and introducing the natural localized molecular orbitals (NLMO) analysis with DFT methods. The dications sustain a reduced global aromatic character of the radial π system under a perpendicular orientation of the external field which declines from ortho to meta isomer and reinforces local aromaticity of ortho ring while it destroys aromaticity of meta ring. Aromaticity variations are determined by symmetry governed rotational excitations of frontier π orbitals. The parallel orientation reveals a substantial reduction of local aromaticity verified with NICSπ analysis and electron delocalization indices.

Abstract
Herein, we report the synthesis of two new series of angular (all-syn) ladder-type meta-[n]phenylenes (LMP, n = 3-8). One series contains keto groups at the termini bridges, denoted angular keto (AKn), the second contains alkyl groups at all bridge sp3 carbons, denoted angular alkyl (AAn). Their electronic and structural properties were delineated by a combination of electrochemistry and spectroscopic (UV-Vis and emission) methods and further supported by DFT calculations. Interestingly, experimental and DFT data show that changing the bridging group at the termini from alkyl (AAn) to keto (AKn) gives an increase in the first reduction potentials and LUMO energies, as the π-system is extended. Also, the charge (de)localization behavior is different for these two species; while the AAn compounds stablize charge with Robin-Day class III, the AKn compounds show a clear switch from class III to class II. In comparison with the linear analogues (LKn and LAn), DFT results reveal a shape independency of the charge (de)localization mechanism in acceptor-π-acceptor series (AKn/LKn).
