Abstract
The phenylazomethine dendrimer (DPA) has a layer-by-layer electron density gradient that is an analog of the Bohr atom (atom mimicry). In combination with electron pair mimicry, the polymerization of this atom-mimicking dendrimer was achieved. The valency of the mimicked atom was controlled by changing the chemical structure of the dendrimer. By mimicking a divalent atom, a one-dimensional (1D) polymer was obtained, and by using a planar tetravalent atom mimic, a 2D polymer was obtained. These poly(dendrimer) polymers could store Lewis acids (SnCl2) in their unoccupied orbitals, thus indicating that these poly(dendrimer) polymers consist of a series of nanocontainers.

Abstract
Self-assembly has been recognised as a ubiquitous aspect of modern chemistry. Our understanding and applications of self-assembly are substantially based on what has been learned from biochemical systems. In this review, we describe various aspects of self-assembly commencing with an account of the soft structures that are available by assembly of surfactant amphiphiles, which are important scientific and industrial materials. Variation of molecular design using rules defined by surfactant self-assembly permits synthesis of functional nanostructures in solution and at surfaces while increasing the strength of intermolecular interactions through π-π stacking, metal cation coordination and/or hydrogen bonding leads to formation of highly complex bespoke nanostructured materials exemplified by DNA assemblies. We describe the origins of self-assembly involving aggregation of lipid amphiphiles and how this subject has been expanded to include other highly advanced chemical systems.

Abstract
This article reports the covalent capture of self-assembled gel-phase materials using alkene metathesis. Gels assembled from a gelator functionalized with peripheral alkene groups were reacted with Grubbs' second generation catalyst, added as a solution to the top of the gel and allowed to diffuse into the material for 24 h. Using this approach, the fibrillar self-assembled network was covalently captured, yielding a large amount of insoluble material that was robust, thermally stable, and highly swellable in solvents compatible with the gelator. Scanning electron microscopy demonstrated that the insoluble metathesized material contained nanoscale fibers, which were aligned into rigid fiber bundles on drying. When the gelator was assembled in the presence of a second non-cross-linkable gelator, self-sorting took place, giving rise to two independent gelator networks. Metathesis then generated an insoluble material in which the individual gel fibers of the cross-linkable gelator were captured, whereas the nonreactive gelator could be washed away. Intriguingly, using this approach appeared to hinder the alignment of gel fibers into rigid fiber bundles. Instead, individual, well-defined, robust gelator nanofibers were visualized in the dried materials. In addition, the material synthesized this way appeared to be even more highly porous and swellable on the addition of solvent. In summary, this article demonstrates that metathesis is an effective way to capture nanostructured gel-phase materials covalently, with the judicious choice of additives helping to control the morphology and behavior of the materials generated. This approach to nanofabrication could ultimately give rise to nanostructured polymeric materials with a wide range of applications.

Abstract
In light of the considerable impact synthetic 2D polymers are expected to have on many fundamental and applied aspects of the natural and engineering sciences, it is surprising that little research has been carried out on these intriguing macromolecules. Although numerous approaches have been reported over the last several decades, the synthesis of a one monomer unit thick, covalently bonded molecular sheet with a long-range ordered (periodic) internal structure has yet to be achieved. This Review provides an overview of these approaches and an analysis of how to synthesize 2D polymers. This analysis compares polymerizations in (initially) a homogeneous phase with those at interfaces and considers structural aspects of monomers as well as possibly preferred connection modes. It also addresses issues such as shrinkage as well as domain and crack formation, and briefly touches upon how the chances for a successful structural analysis of the final product can possibly be increased.

Abstract
Amphiphilic compounds 1 and 2, composed of an aromatic pyrene core and an amphiphilic three-branched unit, were synthesized and investigated for their self-organizing process in solution by UV-vis, fluorescence spectra, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and fluorescence microscopes. While 2 formed spherical objects in a mixed solvent of methanol and water, 1 assembled into long, flexible, and fluorescent fibers through pi-pi stacking of pyrene cores and hydrogen bonding among amide groups. The fluorescence spectra and morphologies strongly depended on the concentration and solution temperature. The fibrous assemblies were wrapped with an ultrathin silica wall by the acidic sol-gel polymerization of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS). A transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image after the sol-gel polymerization showed discrete fibrous structures with a uniform diameter of 3.5 nm and several micrometers in length. The thickness of the silica wall and the inner diameter of one fiber were estimated to be 0.5 nm and 2.5 nm, respectively. The observed inner diameter of the fiber was almost compatible with the width of the cylindrical assembly made of 1. The pyrene unit in 1 can interact with the sidewall of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) through pi-pi interaction, and the adsorption of 1 onto the surface of SWNTs could disrupt the formation of bundles. The accumulation of oligomeric silica species at the hydrophilic surface created organic-inorganic nanoscopic fibers containing electronic conductive SWNTs.

Abstract
The controlled fabrication of nanometer-scale objects is without doubt one of the central issues in current science and technology. However, existing fabrication techniques suffer from several disadvantages including size-restrictions and a general paucity of applicable materials. Because of this, the development of alternative approaches based on supramolecular self-assembly processes is anticipated as a breakthrough methodology. This review article aims to comprehensively summarize the salient aspects of self-assembly through the introduction of the recent challenges and breakthroughs in three categories: (i) types of self-assembly in bulk media; (ii) types of components for self-assembly in bulk media; and (iii) self-assembly at interfaces.

Abstract
We present the rational design and anion-binding properties of the first anion-templated pseudorotaxanes and catenanes in which the "wheel" component is provided by a calix[4]arene macrobicyclic unit. The designs and syntheses of two new calix[4]arene macrobicycles, 2 and 3, are presented, and the abilities of these new species both to bind anions and to undergo anion-dependent pseudorotaxane formation are demonstrated. Furthermore, it is shown that performing ring-closing metathesis reactions on some of these pseudorotaxane assemblies gives novel catenane species 14 and 15, in which the yield of interlocked molecule obtained is critically dependent on the presence of a suitable anion template, namely, chloride. Exchange of the chloride anion in catenane 14 a for hexafluorophosphate gives catenane 14 d, which contains a unique anion-binding domain defined by the permanently interlocked hydrogen-bond-donating calix[4]arene macrobicycle and pyridinium macrocycle fragments. The anion-binding properties of this domain are presented, and shown to differ from non-interlocked components.

Abstract
Two alkyl-substituted dual oligothiophenes, quarterthiophene (4T)-trimethylene (tm)-octithiophene (8T) and 4T-tm-4T, were used to fabricate molecular structures on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite and Au(111) surfaces. The resulted structures were investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy. The 4T-tm-8T and 4T-tm-4T molecules self-organize into long-range ordered structures with linear and/or quasi-hexagonal patterns on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite at ambient temperature. Thermal annealing induced a phase transformation from quasi-hexagonal to linear in 4T-tm-8T adlayer. The molecules adsorbed on Au(111) surface in randomly folded and linear conformation. Based on scanning tunneling microscopy results, the structural models for different self-organizations were proposed. Scanning tunneling spectroscopy measurement showed the electronic property of individual molecules in the patterns. These results are significant in understanding the chemistry of molecular structure, including its formation, transformation, and electronic properties. They also help to fabricate oligothiophene assemblies with desired structures for future molecular devices.
