Abstract
Water-soluble smart materials with multi-stimuli-responsiveness and ultra-long room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) have garnered broad attention. Herein, a water-soluble terpyridine zinc complex (MeO-Tpy-Zn-OAc), featuring a simple donor-π-acceptor (D-π-A) structure is presented, which responds to a variety of stimuli, including changes in solvents, pH, temperature, and the addition of amino acids. Notably, MeO-Tpy-Zn-OAc functions as a fluorescence probe, capable of visually and selectively discriminating aspartate or histidine among other common amino acids in water. Additionally, when incorporated into polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to form the composite MeO-Tpy-Zn-OAc@PVA, the material exhibits reversible writing, photochromism, and a prolonged RTP with a 14 s afterglow. These unique properties enable the composite to be utilized in potential applications such as secure data encryption and inkless printing.

Abstract
Crown ethers (CEs), known for their exceptional host-guest complexation, offer potential as linkers in covalent organic frameworks (COFs) for enhanced performance in catalysis and host-guest binding. However, their highly flexible conformation and low symmetry limit the diversity of CE-derived COFs. Here, we introduce a novel C3-symmetrical azacrown ether (ACE) building block, tris(pyrido)[18]crown-6 (TPy18C6), for COF fabrication (ACE-COF-1 and ACE-COF-2) via reticular synthesis. This approach enables precise integration of CEs into COFs, enhancing Ni2+ ion immobilization while maintaining crystallinity. The resulting Ni2+-doped COFs (Ni@ACE-COF-1 and Ni@ACE-COF-2) exhibit high discharge capacity (up to 1.27 mAh ⋅ cm-2 at 8 mA ⋅ cm-2) and exceptional cycling stability (>1000 cycles) as cathode materials in aqueous alkaline nickel-zinc batteries. This study serves as an exemplar of the seamless integration of macrocyclic chemistry and reticular chemistry, laying the groundwork for extending the macrocyclic-synthon driven strategy to a diverse array of COF building blocks, ultimately yielding advanced materials tailored for specific applications.

Abstract
In these decades, considerable attention has focused on supramolecular polymers due to their unique structures and properties. More recently, macroscopic supramolecular polymers have attracted increasing interest from not only biologists but also materials scientists inspired by the sophisticated structures and functions of living organisms. Since the functions of supramolecular polymers are strongly dependent on their shape, control of the shape is an important issue in controlling the functions of supramolecular polymers. However, the control of shape in macroscopic supramolecular assemblies has not yet been sufficiently investigated. Previously, we studied the macroscopic self-assembly behavior of super absorbent polymer (SAP) microparticles modified with β-cyclodextrin (βCD) and adamantane (Ad) residues (βCD(x)-SAP and Ad(y)-SAP microparticles, where x and y are the mol% contents of βCD and Ad residues, respectively). More elongated assemblies were formed at higher y, indicating that the shape of assemblies can be controlled by varying the interaction strength. The noteworthy is that 1-adamantanamine hydrochloride (AdNH3Cl) assisted the formation of assemblies from βCD(x)-SAP and Ad(y)-SAP microparticles, indicating that AdNH3Cl acts as a chemical stimulus for macroscopic assemblies of βCD(x)-SAP and Ad(y)-SAP microparticles. In this study, we have thus studied the assembling behavior of βCD(x)-SAP microparticles with Ad(y)-SAP microparticles and unmodified SAP microparticles assisted by AdNH3Cl, as well as the shape of the resulting macroscopic assemblies. AdNH3Cl assisted the formation of assemblies from βCD(16.2)-SAP and Ad(15.1)-SAP microparticles, in which AdNH3Cl crosslinked the SAP microparticles through the formation of inclusion complexes of βCD residues with the Ad residue and the electrostatic interaction of ammonium and carboxylate residues. Assemblies of βCD(26.7)-SAP and unmodified SAP microparticles were formed at the concentrations of AdNH3Cl ([AdNH3Cl]0) higher than a certain level (ca. 0.05 mM). The aspect ratio (a/b) of assemblies showed a maximum at [AdNH3Cl]0 ~ 0.10 mM, indicating that the chemical stimulus, i.e., addition of AdNH3Cl, controls the shape of assemblies formed from βCD(26.7)-SAP and unmodified SAP microparticles. This study suggests that other stimuli, e.g., heat, pH, light, redox, and force, can be utilized to control the shape of macroscopic assemblies based on supramolecular interactions.

Abstract
Supramolecular polymers are typical self-assemblies, in which repeating monomer units are bonded together with dynamic and reversible noncovalent interactions. Supramolecular polymers can combine the advantages of polymer science and supramolecular chemistry. Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) means that a molecule remains faintly emissive in the dispersed state but intensively luminescent in a highly aggregated state. AIE has brought new opportunities and further development potential to the field of polymeric chemistry. The integration of AIE luminogens with supramolecular interactions can provide new vitality for supramolecular polymers. Therefore, it is essential for scientists to understand the preparation and applications of AIE-active supramolecular polymers. This review focuses on the recent advanced progress in the preparation of AIE-active supramolecular polymers. In addition, we summarize the newly developed supramolecular polymers with an AIE nature and their applications in chemical sensing, and in vitro and in vivo imaging, as well as the visualization of their structure and properties. Finally, the development trends and challenges of AIE-active supramolecular polymers are prospected.

Porous β-cyclodextrin polymers for rapid and efficient removal of organic micropollutants from water: The role of sulfonation and porosity on adsorption performance. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 363:142740.

Abstract
Removal of organic micropollutants (OMPs) from water, especially hydrophilic and ionized ones, is challenging for water remediation. Herein, porous β-cyclodextrin polymers (PCPs) with tailored functionalization were prepared based on molecular expansion strategy and sulfonation. Partially benzylated β-cyclodextrin was knotted by external crosslinker to form PCP1, and knotting PCP1 by expansion molecule generated PCP2. PCP1 and PCP2 were sulfonated to achieve PCP1-SO3H and PCP2-SO3H. Based on systematical adsorption evaluation toward multiple categories of OMPs, it was found that the introduced strong polar -SO3H group could bring strong hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions. PCP2 showed the highest surface (998.97 m2/g) displayed more excellent adsorption performance toward neutral and anionic OMPs, and the adsorption mechanism for this property of PCP2 was dominated by hydrophobic interactions. In addition, the PCP1-SO3H with the lowest surface area (39.75 m2/g) rather than PCP2-SO3H with higher surface (519.28 m2/g) exhibited more superior adsorption towards hydrophilic and cationic OMPs, benefiting by hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions as well as appropriate porosity. These results not only confirmed the performance enhancement of PCPs through the integration of novel preparation strategy, but also provided fundamental guidance for PCPs design for water remediation.

Abstract
With the gradual depletion of natural gold ore, waste printed circuit boards (WPCBs) have become one of the most attractive alternatives to gold ore. Here, a series of quaternary phosphonium adsorbents with a large size were successfully synthesized by adjusting the number of functional groups and carbon chain length of functional monomers, which can be used for selective recovery of gold(III) from WPCBs leaching solution. The quaternary phosphonium adsorbent (PS-TEP) prepared by the nucleophilic substitution reaction between triethyl phosphine with the smallest volume and chloromethylated polystyrene (PS-Cl) exhibited the best gold loading capacity (617.90 mg g-1). The adsorption mechanism of gold(III) on PS-TEP surface mainly involves anion exchange between AuCl4- and Cl- in the adsorbent. The charge level of the H atom closest to -CH2-P+ group directly determines the strength of the interaction between the adsorbent and the gold ion. Multiwfn and VMD programs visually confirm the weak interaction between PS-TEP+ and AuCl4-. After 5 adsorption-stripping cycles, the adsorption rate of gold(III) in solution remained at about 99 %. In addition, PS-TEP exhibited good gold(III) selectivity in both simulated and actual WPCBs gold leaching solutions. These results indicate that the large-particle PS-TEP with high capacity is suitable for selective gold recovery from WPCBs leaching solution.

Abstract
Supramolecular block copolymers, derived via seeded living polymerization, are increasingly recognized for their rich structural and functional diversity, marking them as cutting-edge materials. The use of metal complexes in supramolecular block copolymerization not only offers a broad range of block copolymers through the structural similarity in the coordination geometry of the central metal ion but also controls spectroscopic properties, such as emission wavelength, emission strength, and fluorescence lifetime. However, the exploration of metallosupramolecular multiblock copolymerization based on metal complexes remains quite limited. In this work, we present a pioneering synthesis of metallosupramolecular multiblock copolymers utilizing Eu3+ and Tb3+ complexes as building blocks. This is achieved through the strategic manipulation of nonequilibrium self-assemblies via a living supramolecular polymerization approach. Our comprehensive exploration of both thermodynamically and kinetically regulated metallosupramolecular polymerizations, centered around Eu3+ and Tb3+ complexes with bisterpyridine-modified ligands containing R-alanine units and a long alkyl group, has highlighted intriguing behaviors. The monomeric [R-L1Eu(NO3)3] complex generates a spherical structure as the kinetic product. In contrast, the monomeric [R-L1Eu2(NO3)6] complex generates fiber aggregates as a thermodynamic product through intermolecular interactions such as π-π stacking, hydrophobic interaction, and H-bonds. Utilizing the Eu3+ complex, we successfully conducted seed-induced living polymerization of the monomeric building unit under kinetically regulated conditions. This yielded a metallosupramolecular polymer of precisely controlled length with minimal polydispersity. Moreover, by copolymerizing the kinetically confined Tb3+ complex state ("A" species) with a seed derived from the Eu3+ complex ("B" species), we were able to fabricate metallosupramolecular tri- and pentablock copolymers with A-B-A, and B-A-B-A-B types, respectively, through a seed-end chain-growth mechanism.

Abstract
Click chemistry has reached its maturity as the weapon of choice for the irreversible ligation of molecular fragments, with over 20 years of research resulting in the development or improvement of highly efficient kinetically controlled conjugation reactions. Nevertheless, traditional click reactions can be disadvantageous not only in terms of efficiency (side products, slow kinetics, air/water tolerance, etc.), but also because they completely avoid the possibility to reversibly produce and control bound/unbound states. Recently, non-covalent click chemistry has appeared as a more efficient alternative, in particular by using host-guest self-assembled systems of high thermodynamic stability and kinetic lability. This review discusses the implementation of molecular switches in the development of such non-covalent ligation processes, resulting in what we have termed stimuli-responsive click chemistry, in which the bound/unbound constitutional states of the system can be favored by external stimulation, in particular using host-guest complexes. As we exemplify with handpicked selected examples, these supramolecular systems are well suited for the development of human-controlled molecular conjugation, by coupling thermodynamically regulated processes with appropriate temporally resolved extrinsic control mechanisms, thus mimicking nature and advancing our efforts to develop a more function-oriented chemical synthesis.

Abstract
Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from the excited state of the donor to the ground state of the acceptor is one of the most important fluorescence mechanisms and has wide applications in light-harvesting systems, light-mediated therapy, bioimaging, optoelectronic devices, and information security fields. The phenomenon of sequential energy transfer in natural photosynthetic systems provides great inspiration for scientists to make full use of light energy. In recent years, discrete supramolecular assemblies (DSAs) have been successively constructed to incorporate donor and multiple acceptors, and to achieve multi-step FRET between them. This perspective describes recent advances in the fabrication and application of DSAs with multi-step FRET. These DSAs are categorized based on the non-covalent scaffolds, such as amphiphilic nanoparticles, host-guest assemblies, metal-coordination scaffolds, and biomolecular scaffolds. This perspective will also outline opportunities and future challenges in this research area.

Abstract
The progress of the pillar[5]arene chemistry allowed us to set out a new concept on application of the supramolecular assemblies to create antimicrobial films with variable surface morphologies and biological activities. Antibacterial films were derived from the substituted pillar[5]arenes containing nine pharmacophoric guanidine fragments and one thioalkyl substituent. Changing the only thioalkyl fragment in the macrocycle structure made it possible to control the biological activity of the resulting antibacterial coating. Pretreatment of the surface with aqueous solution of the amphiphilic pillar[5]arenes reduced the biofilm thickness by 56 ± 10% of Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus in the case of the pillar[5]arene containing a thiooctyl fragment and by 52 ± 7% for the biofilm of Gram-negative Klebsiella pneumoniae in the case of pillar[5]arene containing a thiooctadecyl fragment. Meanwhile, the cytotoxicity of the synthesized macrocycles was examined at a concentration of 50 μg/mL, which was significantly lower than that of bis-guanidine-based antimicrobial preparations.

Abstract
Double-cavity Q[n]s are relatively new members of the Q[n] family and have garnered significant interest due to their distinctive structures and novel properties. While they incorporate n glycoluril units, akin to their single-cavity counterparts, their geometry can best be described as resembling a figure-of-eight or a handcuff, distinguishing them from single-cavity Q[n]s. Despite retaining the core molecular recognition traits of single-cavity Q[n]s, these double-cavity variants introduce fascinating new attributes rooted in their distinct configurations. This overview delves into the synthesis, structural attributes, properties, and intriguing applications of double-cavity Q[n]s. Some of the applications explored include their role in supramolecular polymers, molecular machinery, supra-amphiphiles, sensors, artificial light-harvesting systems, and adsorptive separation materials. Upon concluding this review, we discuss potential challenges and avenues for future development and offer valuable insights for other scholars working in this area with the aim of stimulating further exploration and interest.

Abstract
Developing dynamic chemistry for polymeric materials offers chemical solutions to solve key problems associated with current plastics. Mechanical performance and dynamic function are equally important in material design because the former determines the application scope and the latter enables chemical recycling and hence sustainability. However, it is a long-term challenge to balance the subtle trade-off between mechanical robustness and dynamic properties in a single material. The rise of dynamic chemistry, including supramolecular and dynamic covalent chemistry, provides many opportunities and versatile molecular tools for designing constitutionally dynamic materials that can adapt, repair, and recycle. Facing the growing social need for developing advanced sustainable materials without compromising properties, recent progress showing how the toolbox of dynamic chemistry can be explored to enable high-performance sustainable materials by molecular engineering strategies is discussed here. The state of the art and recent milestones are summarized and discussed, followed by an outlook toward future opportunities and challenges present in this field.

Abstract
Inspired by the drawstring structure in daily life, here we report the development of a drawstring-mimetic supramolecular complex at the molecular scale. This complex consists of a rigid figure-of-eight macrocyclic host molecule and a flexible linear guest molecule which could interact through three-point non-covalent binding to form a highly selective and efficient host-guest assembly. The complex not only resembles the drawstring structure, but also mimics the properties of a drawstring with regard to deformations under external forces. The supramolecular drawstring can be utilized as an interlocked crosslinker for poly(methyl acrylate), and the corresponding polymer samples exhibit comprehensive enhancement of macroscopic mechanical performance including stiffness, strength, and toughness.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202318454. [PMID: 38185794 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202318454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2023] [Revised: 12/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/09/2024]
Abstract
Chiral metallo-supramolecular fibres can be easily obtained by mixing a chloroform solution of a phenylacetylene monomer (PA) that bears a chiral sulfoxide group as pendant, with different equivalents of a methanolic solution of AgClO4 . Thus, while the PA is found molecularly dissolved in chloroform, the addition of Ag+ ions induce its aggregation through the formation of an axially chiral metallo-supramolecular aggregate with high thermal stable properties. In this case, the ability of the metal ion to coordinate the PA triple bond, combined with the argentophilicity of the metal ion and the planarity of the phenylacetylene drives to the formation of a helical coordination polymer, whose P or M axial chirality is determined by the chirality of the sulfoxide used as substituent of the PA. Depending on the PA/Ag+ (mol/mol) ratio, it is possible to tune the morphology of the metallo-supramolecular aggregate from chiral fibers to chiral gel.

Abstract
Supramolecular polymers have attracted increasing attention in recent years due to their perfect combination of supramolecular chemistry and traditional polymer chemistry. The design and synthesis of macrocycles have driven the rapid development of supramolecular chemistry and polymer science. Pillar[n]arenes, a new generation of macrocyclic compounds possessing unique pillar-shaped structures, nano-sized cavities, multi-functionalized groups, and excellent host-guest complexation abilities, are promising candidates to construct supramolecular polymer materials with enhanced properties and functionalities. This review summarizes recent progress in the design and synthesis of pillararene-based supramolecular polymers (PSPs) and illustrates their diverse applications as adsorption and separation materials. All performances are evaluated and analyzed in terms of efficiency, selectivity, and recyclability. Typically, PSPs can be categorized into three typical types according to their topologies, including linear, cross-linked, and hybrid structures. The advances made in the area of functional supramolecular polymeric adsorbents formed by new pillararene derivatives are also described in detail. Finally, the remaining challenges and future perspectives of PSPs for separation-based materials science are discussed. This review will inspire researchers in different fields and stimulate creative designs of supramolecular polymeric materials based on pillararenes and other macrocycles for effective adsorption and separation of a variety of targets.

Abstract
Traditional water-soluble organic macrocyclic receptors generally lack photofunctionality, thus monitoring the drug delivery and the phototheranostic applications of these host-guest macrocyclic systems has been greatly restricted. To address this issue, incorporating π-conjugated dye chromophores as building blocks into macrocyclic molecules is a straightforward and promising strategy. This approach not only imparts intrinsic optical features to the macrocycles themselves but also enhances the host-guest binding ability due to the large planar structures of the dyes. In this feature article, we focus on recent advances in water-soluble macrocyclic compounds based on organic dye chromophores, such as naphthalimide (NDI), perylene diimides (PDI), azobenzene (azo), tetraphenylethylene (TPE) and anthracene, and provide an overview of their various applications including molecular recognition, drug release, biological imaging, photothermal therapy, etc. We hope that this article could be helpful and instructive for the design of water-soluble dye-based macrocycles and the further development of their biomedical applications, particularly in combination with drug therapy and phototheranostics.

Abstract
Cucurbit[n]uril (CB[n]) macrocycles (especially CB[5] to CB[8]) have shown exceptional attributes since their discovery in 2000. Their stability, water solubility, responsiveness to several stimuli, and remarkable binding properties have enabled a growing number of biological applications. Yet, soon after their discovery, the challenge of their functionalization was set. Nevertheless, after more than two decades, a myriad of CB[n] derivatives has been described, many of them used in cells or in vivo for advanced applications. This perspective summarizes key advances of this burgeoning field and points to the next opportunities and remaining challenges to fully express the potential of these fascinating macrocycles in biology and biomedical sciences.

Abstract
Herein, β-cyclodextrin-containing hybrid polymers (P1, P2 and P3) were prepared through crosslinking partially benzylated β-cyclodextrin (PBCD) by octavinylsilsesquioxane (OVS). P1 stood out in screening studies and the residual hydroxyl groups of PBCD was sulfonate-functionalized. The obtained P1-SO3Na showed greatly enhanced adsorption towards cationic MPs and maintained the excellent adsorption performance towards neutral MPs. The rate constants (k2) of cationic MPs upon P1-SO3Na were 9.8-34.8 times larger than those upon P1. The equilibrium uptakes of the neutral and cationic MPs upon P1-SO3Na were above 94.5 %. Meanwhile, P1-SO3Na demonstrated appreciable adsorption capacities, excellent selectivity, effective adsorption of mixed MPs at environmental levels and good reusability. These results confirmed the great potential of P1-SO3Na as effective adsorbent to remove MPs from water.

Abstract
A magnetic dispersive micro-solid phase extraction technique (CS@Fe3O4-MD-μSPE-DESP) based on magnetic chitosan nanoparticles and a deep eutectic supramolecular solvent was developed and applied to determinations of four phenolic compounds in food samples. To prevent environmental pollution and the introduction of toxic substances, deep eutectic supramolecular solvents (DESPs), which exhibited greater desorption capacities than conventional organic solvents and deep eutectic solvents, were used as novel green eluents for the first time. Some important parameters were screened by the Plackett-Burman method and then further optimized with response surface methodology (RSM). Under the optimal conditions, the proposed method showed excellent methodological indices with linearity over the range 0.1-200.0 µg·mL-1, R2 > 0.9988, extraction recoveries above 94.8 %, and precision (RSD%) below 2.9 %. The established method finishes the process of adsorption and desorption in approximately 3 min and enhances the efficiency for determination of phenolic compounds.

Abstract
The exciting advancements in 3D-printing of soft materials are changing the landscape of materials development and fabrication. Among various 3D-printers that are designed for soft materials fabrication, the direct ink writing (DIW) system is particularly attractive for chemists and materials scientists due to the mild fabrication conditions, compatibility with a wide range of organic and inorganic materials, and the ease of multi-materials 3D-printing. Inks for DIW need to possess suitable viscoelastic properties to allow for smooth extrusion and be self-supportive after printing, but molecularly facilitating 3D printability to functional materials remains nontrivial. While supramolecular binding motifs have been increasingly used for 3D-printing, these inks are largely optimized empirically for DIW. Hence, this review aims to establish a clear connection between the molecular understanding of the supramolecularly bound motifs and their viscoelastic properties at bulk. Herein, extrudable (but not self-supportive) and 3D-printable (self-supportive) polymeric materials that utilize noncovalent interactions, including hydrogen bonding, host-guest inclusion, metal-ligand coordination, micro-crystallization, and van der Waals interaction, have been discussed in detail. In particular, the rheological distinctions between extrudable and 3D-printable inks have been discussed from a supramolecular design perspective. Examples shown in this review also highlight the exciting macroscale functions amplified from the molecular design. Challenges associated with the hierarchical control and characterization of supramolecularly designed DIW inks are also outlined. The perspective of utilizing supramolecular binding motifs in soft materials DIW printing has been discussed. This review serves to connect researchers across disciplines to develop innovative solutions that connect top-down 3D-printing and bottom-up supramolecular design to accelerate the development of 3D-print soft materials for a sustainable future.

Abstract
Introduction of multiple kinetic aggregation states (Aggs) into the self-assembly pathway could bring complexity and flexibility to the self-assemblies, which is difficult to realize due to the delicate equilibria established among different Aggs bonded by weak noncovalent interactions. Here, we describe a series of chiral and achiral d10 AuI bis(N-heterocyclic carbene, NHC) complexes, and the achiral complex could undergo self-assembly with multiple kinetic Aggs. Generation of multiple kinetic Aggs was realized by applying chiral or achiral seeds exhibiting large differences in elongation temperatures for their respective cooperative self-assembly processes. We further showed that the chiral AuI self-assemblies having non-centrosymmetric packing forms exhibit nonlinear optical response of second harmonic generation (SHG), while the SHG signal is absent in the achiral analogue. The crystalline achiral AuI self-assemblies could function as optical waveguides with strong emission polarization.

Abstract
Photoresponsive supramolecular polymers are well-organized assemblies based on highly oriented and reversible noncovalent interactions containing photosensitive molecules as (co-)monomers. They have attracted increasing interest in smart materials and dynamic systems with precisely controllable functions, such as light-driven soft actuators, photoresponsive fluorescent anticounterfeiting and light-triggered electronic devices. The present review discusses light-activated molecules used in photoresponsive supramolecular polymers with their main photo-induced changes, e.g., geometry, dipole moment, and chirality. Based on these distinct changes, supramolecular polymers formed by light-activated molecules exhibit photoresponsive disassembly and reassembly. As a consequence, photo-induced supramolecular polymerization, "depolymerization," and regulation of the lengths and topologies are observed. Moreover, the light-controlled functions of supramolecular polymers, such as actuation, emission, and chirality transfer along length scales, are highlighted. Furthermore, a perspective on challenges and future opportunities is presented. Besides the challenge of moving from harmful UV light to visible/near IR light avoiding fatigue, and enabling biomedical applications, future opportunities include light-controlled supramolecular actuators with helical motion, light-modulated information transmission, optically recyclable materials, and multi-stimuli-responsive supramolecular systems.

Abstract
In the supramolecule area, the fabrication of a new concept called polyrotaxanes or poly-pseudo-rotaxanes remains challenging. We herein report the formation of a poly-pseudo-rotaxane in which the same salt-type guest serves both linking and threading in the resulting structure. The combination of A1/A2-thiopyridyl pillar[5]arene (L) and silver(I) trifluoroacetate in CHCl3/CH3OH afforded a one-dimensional (1D) poly-pseudo-rotaxane. In this structure, to our surprise, the AgCF3CO2 guest not only links the di-armed L ligands via an infinite -L-Ag-L-Ag- arrangement but also threads into a pillar[5]arene cavity in a dimer form, (AgCF3CO2)2. In contrast, the same reaction in CH2Cl2/CH3OH yielded a simple 1D coordination polymer because an included CH2Cl2 molecule in the pillar[5]arene cavity prevents the threading of the silver(I) trifluoroacetate guest. Comparative 1H- and 19F-NMR studies support the solvent-dependent poly-pseudo-rotaxane formation at a lower concentration of L.

Abstract
Fluorescence recognition of d-glucose in water with excellent sensitivity, selectivity, and chiral selectivity is desired because d-glucose is an essential component in biological and pathological processes. We report an innovative approach that exploits the 1:2 stoichiometric inclusion complexes of γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CyD) with two molecules of fluorescent monoboronic acid-based receptors, which form a pseudo-diboronic acid moiety as the recognition site for d-glucose in water. Two monoboronic acids (1F and 2N) were easily synthesized without heating or column purification. The 1:2 stoichiometric inclusion complexes (1F/γ-CyD and 2N/γ-CyD) were prepared in a mixture of dimethyl sulfoxide/water (2/98 in v/v) by mixing γ-CyD and the corresponding monoboronic acids. Both 1F/γ-CyD and 2N/γ-CyD exhibited strong turn-on response to d-glucose with excellent selectivity over nine other saccharides in the water-rich solvent at pH 7.4 owing to the ditopic recognition of d-glucose by the pseudo-diboronic acid moieties. The limits of detection of 1F/γ-CyD and 2N/γ-CyD for d-glucose were 1.1 and 1.8 μM, respectively, indicating the remarkable sensitivity for the detection of d-glucose at μM levels. 1F/γ-CyD and 2N/γ-CyD also demonstrated chiral-selective recognition of d-glucose, which is apparent from the 2.0- and 6.3-fold enhancement of fluorescence by the addition of d-glucose relative to l-glucose addition, owing to the chiral pseudo-diboronic acid moieties produced by the chiral γ-CyD cavity. To the best of our knowledge, 2N/γ-CyD has the highest d/l selectivity among hitherto reported fluorescent diboronic acid-based receptors.

Abstract
The exploitation of specific guests which can respond to external stimuli is the main approach for the construction of stimuli-responsive supramolecular polymers (SPs) based on host-guest interactions. Most functional guests, however, fail to manifest stimuli-responses. Herein, a hypoxia-responsive dimeric azocalixarene (D-SAC4A) with outstanding hosting properties was used as the macrocyclic building block for the preparation of host stimuli-responsive SPs. Since azocalixarenes can also be compatible with stimuli-responsive guests, an antitumor drug, camptothecin (CPT), was chosen and linked via a disulfide-containing linker to afford a glutathione (GSH)-responsive ditropic guest (D-CPT). A unique dual-responsive SP was obtained by 1 : 1 mixing of D-SAC4A and D-CPT in water, which further assembled into SP nanoparticles (DSPNs). DSPNs displayed outstanding stability against dilution and biological interferants, as well as precise CPT-release under GSH and hypoxia conditions. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated the good biosafety and tumor-suppressive effects of DSPNs.

Abstract
Proper monomer design is the key to enhancing the strength of noncovalent interactions between the molecules toward the efficient formation of supramolecular polymers (SPs). We have designed and synthesized 1,n'-disubstituted ferrocene-azobenzene-long alkyl chains, Fc(CONH-Azo-TDP)2 , to afford SPs with a high probability. The design exploits the ''molecular ball-bearing'' property of the ferrocene core, which allows two azobenzene arms to rotate in the planes of cyclopentadienyl rings, generating the most suitable molecular conformation required for SP formation. This ferrocene monomer formed a supergel consisting of SPs supported by strong intermolecular (H-bonding and π-π stacking) interactions and higher enthalpy gain than the reference molecules, where the central ferrocene core was replaced by flexible aliphatic as well as rigid benzene linkers. The molecular conformation involved in SPs, the strength of noncovalent interactions, and the process of supramolecular polymerization were investigated through NMR, UV-Vis, XRD and TEM studies. The results demonstrate that ferrocene may act as a good modulator for constructing efficient SPs.

Abstract
To perceive the human body's multienvironmental mobility, intelligent flexible electronic equipment with an underwater motion monitoring function has potential research value in the field of intelligent detection. Hydrogels are widely used in the field of flexible electronics for their unique three-dimensional polymer networks. Due to the instinctive hydrophilicity of hydrogels, the swelling of hydrogels underwater and the formation of hydration coating on the surface become the primary obstacles to underwater applications. Herein, a hydrogel sensor that can achieve underwater utilization was prepared through copolymerization between hydrophobic and hydrophilic polymer monomers. The synergistic impact of electrostatic interaction, metal coordination, and hydrogen bonding ensured the hydrogel's remarkable underwater adhesive ability to a variety of substrates. The hydrophobic micelles and self-hydrophobization process induced from ultrasonic dispersion in the polymer matrix gave an outstanding hydrophobic performance (water contact angle of 130.4°) and antiswelling property (swelling ratio of 26% after 72 h of immersion), presenting unprecedented underwater adaptability. The above-mentioned hydrogel could be assembled into a flexible hydrogel sensor with satisfactory sensitivity (gauge factor of 0.44), ultrafast response rate (106 ms), and excellent cyclic stability, demonstrating accurate monitoring of complex human motions in water and air.

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
Developing hierarchical ordered systems is challenging. Using organo-macrocycles to construct metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and porous coordination cages (PCCs) provides an efficient way to obtain hierarchical assemblies. Macrocycles, such as crown ethers, cyclodextrins, calixarenes, cucurbiturils, and pillararenes, can be incorporated within MOFs/PCCs and they also endow the resultant composites with enhanced properties and functionalities. This review summarizes recent developments of organo-macrocycle-containing hierarchical MOFs/PCCs, emphasizing applications and structure-property relationships of these hierarchically porous materials. This review provides insights for future research on hierarchical self-assembly using macrocycles as building blocks and functional ligands to extend the applications of the composites.

Abstract
In past decades, regular porous architectures have received a great amount of attention because of their versatile functions and applications derived from their efficient adsorption of various guests. However, most reported porous architectures exist only in the solid state. Therefore, their applications as biomaterials may face several challenges, such as phase separation, slow degradation, and long-term accumulation in the body. This Account summarizes our efforts with respect to the development and biomedical applications of water-soluble 3D diamondoid supramolecular organic frameworks (dSOFs), a family of supramolecular polymers that possess intrinsic regular nanoscale porosity.dSOFs have been constructed from tetratopic components and cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) through hydrophobically driven encapsulation by CB[8] for intermolecular dimers formed by peripheral aromatic subunits of the tetratopic components in water. All dSOFs exhibit porosity regularity or periodicity in aqueous solution, which is confirmed by solution-phase synchrotron SAXS and XRD experiments. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) reveals that their sizes range from 50 to 150 nm, depending on the concentrations of the components. As nonequilibrium supramolecular architectures, dSOFs can maintain their nanoscale sizes at micromolar concentrations for dozens of hours. Their diamondoid pores have aperture sizes ranging from 2.1 to 3.6 nm, whereas their water solubility and porosity regularity allow them to rapidly include discrete guests driven by ion-pair electrostatic attraction, hydrophobicity, or a combination of the two interactions. The guests may be small molecule or large macromolecular drugs, photodynamic agents (PDAs), or DNA.The rapid inclusion of bioactive guests into dSOFs has led to two important biofunctions. The first is to function as antidotes through including residual drugs. For heparins, the inclusion results in full neutralization of their anticoagulant activity. For clinically used porphyrin PDAs, the inclusion can alleviate their long-term posttreatment phototoxicity but does not reduce their photodynamic efficacy. The second is to function as in situ loading carriers for the intracellular delivery of antitumor drugs or DNA. Their nanoscale sizes bring out their ability to overcome the multidrug resistance of tumor cells, which leads to a remarkable enhancement of the bioactivity of the included drugs. By conjugating aldoxorubicin to tetrahedral components, albumin-mimicking prodrugs have also been constructed, which conspicuously improves the efficacy of aldoxorubicin toward multi-drug-resistant tumors through the delivery of the frameworks. As new supramolecular drugs and carriers, dSOFs are generally biocompatible. Thus, further efforts might lead to medical benefits in the future.

Abstract
Small molecular NIR-II dyes are highly desirable for various biomedical applications. However, NIR-II probes are still limited due to the complex synthetic processes and inadequate availability of fluorescent core. Herein, the design and synthesis of three small molecular NIR-II dyes are reported. These dyes can be excited at 850-915 nm and emitted at 1280-1290 nm with a large stokes shift (≈375 nm). Experimental and computational results indicate a 2:1 preferable host-guest assembly between the cucurbit[8]uril (CB) and dye molecules. Interestingly, the dyes when self-assembled in presence of CB leads to the formation of nanocubes (≈200 nm) and exhibits marked enhancement in fluorescence emission intensity (Switch-On). However, the addition of red carbon dots (rCDots, ≈10 nm) quenches the fluorescence of these host-guest complexes (Switch-Off) providing flexibility in the user-defined tuning of photoluminescence. The turn-ON complex found to have comparable quantum yield to the commercially available near-infrared fluorophore, IR-26. The aqueous dispersibility, cellular and blood compatibility, and NIR-II bioimaging capability of the inclusion complexes is also explored. Thus, a switchable fluorescence behavior, driven by host-guest complexation and supramolecular self-assembly, is demonstrated here for three new NIR-II dyes.

Abstract
Kinetic control over structures and functions of complex assembly systems has aroused widespread interest. Understanding the complex pathway and transient intermediates is helpful to decipher how multiple components evolve into complex assemblies. However, for supramolecular polymerizations, thorough and quantitative kinetic analysis is often overlooked. Challenges remain in collecting the information of structure and content of transient intermediates in situ with high temporal and spatial resolution. Here, the unsolved evolution mechanism of a classical self-sorting supramolecular copolymerization system was addressed by employing multidimensional NMR techniques coupled with a microfluidic technique. Unexpected complex pathways were revealed and quantitatively analyzed. A counterintuitive pathway involving polymerization through the 'error-correction' of non-polymerizable transient intermediates was identified. Moreover, a 'non-classical' step-growth polymerization process controlled by the self-sorting mechanism was unraveled based on the kinetic study. Realizing the existence of transient intermediates during self-sorting can encourage the exploitation of this strategy to construct kinetic steady state assembly systems. Moreover, the strategy of coupling a microfluidic technique with various characterization techniques can provide a kinetic analysis toolkit for versatile assembly systems. The combined approach of coupling thermodynamic and kinetic analyses is indispensable for understanding the assembly mechanisms, the rules of emergence, and the engineering of complex assembly systems.

Abstract
Molecular weight has an important bearing on the properties of supramolecular polymers. However, the intuitive differentiation of the molecular weight of supramolecular polymers remains challenging. Given this situation, establishing a reliable relationship between fluorescence properties and molecular weight may be a promising strategy. Herein, we prepared a supramolecular monomer M1 with aggregation-induced ratiometric emission characteristics. With the increasing M1 concentration (0.100-100 mM), the average degree of polymerization (DPDOSY ) rose from 1.00 to 293. Meanwhile, the color changed from dark blue to cyan, finally to yellow-green in the same concentration range. Hence, the intuitive relationship between DPDOSY and fluorescence colors was constructed, allowing the visual differentiation of molecular weight. Moreover, the fluorescence color could be regulated by introducing a competitive molecule to induce the depolymerization of supramolecular polymers.

Abstract
Supramolecular polymer gels (SPGs) are precisely designed gels brought together by noncovalent interactions to form three-dimensional network structures of polymers. SPGs combine the merits of supramolecular polymers and gels, such as stimuli-responsiveness, self-healing, and self-adaptation, which endows SPGs with potential application value in the fields of biomaterials, etc. Recently, much effort has been made to design new SPGs and related materials with high performance. Herein, we review the research endeavor and future directions of SPGs depending on the construction methods, topological structures, stimuli-responsiveness, and functionality. We hope that the review will provide reference values for the researchers working in supramolecular chemistry and gels.
