Abstract
Deep cavitands, concave molecular containers, represent an important supramolecular host class that has been explored for a variety of applications ranging from sensing, switching, purification and adsorption to catalysis. A major limitation in the field has been the cavitand volume that is restricted by the size of the structural platform utilized (diameter approx. 7 Å). We here report the synthesis of a novel, unprecedentedly large structural platform, named acridane[4]arene (diameter approx. 14 Å), suitable for the construction of cavitands with volumes of up to 814 Å3 . These megalo-cavitands serve as size-selective hosts for fullerenes with mM to sub-μM binding affinity for C60 and C70 . Furthermore, the selective binding of fullerene C70 in the presence of C60 was demonstrated.

Abstract
Covalent capsule 1 was designed to include two molecular baskets linked with three mobile pyridines tucked into its inner space. On the basis of both theory (DFT) and experiments (NMR and X-ray crystallography), we found that the pyridine "doors" split the chamber (380 Å3 ) of 1 so that two equally sizeable compartments (190 Å3 ) became joined through a conformationally flexible aromatic barrier. The compartments of such unique host could be populated with CCl4 (88 Å3 ; PC=46 %), CBr4 (106 Å3 ; 56 %) or their combination CCl4 /CBr4 (PC=51 %), with thermodynamic stabilities ΔG° tracking the values of packing coefficients (PC). Halogen (C-X⋅⋅⋅π) and hydrogen bonding (C-H⋅⋅⋅X) contacts held the haloalkane guests in the cavities of 1. The consecutive complexations were found to occur in a negative allosteric manner, which we propose to result from the induced-fit mode of complexation. Newly designed 1 opens a way for probing the effects of inner conformational dynamics on noncovalent interactions, reactivity and intramolecular translation in confined spaces of hollow molecules.

Abstract
In this review, we describe the construction of gated molecular baskets, discuss their mechanism of action in regulating the exchange of guests and illustrate the potential of these concave hosts to act as catalysts for controlling chemical reactions. Importantly, a number of computational and experimental studies have suggested that gated baskets ought to unfold their gates at the rim for permitting the passage of guests to/from their inner space. These dynamic hosts are therefore offered as useful models for investigating the process of gating in artificial systems. Furthermore, gated baskets should permit examining the benefit of controlling the rate by which reactants access a gated catalyst for promoting chemical reactions occurring in its confined space.

Abstract
To design and exploit novel macrocyclic synthetic receptors is a permanent and challenging topic in supramolecular chemistry. Here we describe the one-pot synthesis, unique geometries and intriguing host-guest properties of a new class of supramolecular macrocycles - biphen[n]arenes (n = 3, 4), which are made up of 4,4'-biphenol or 4,4'-biphenol ether units linked by methylene bridges at the 3- and 3'- positions. The biphenarene macrocycles are conveniently accessible/modifiable and extremely guest-friendly. Particularly, biphen[4]arene is capable of forming inclusion complexes with not only organic cationic guests but also neutral π-electron deficient molecules. Compared with calixarenes, resorcinarenes, cyclotriveratrylenes and pillararenes with substituted mono-benzene units, the biphen[n]arenes reported here possess significantly different characteristics in both their topologic structures and their recognition properties, and thus can find broad applications in supramolecular chemistry and other areas.

Abstract
Gated molecular encapsulations, with baskets of type 1, are postulated to occur by the mechanism in which solvent molecule penetrates the inner space of 1, through one of its apertures, while the residing guest simultaneously departs the cavity. In the transition state of the exchange, three pyridine-based gates are proposed to assume an open position with both incoming solvent and departing guest molecules interacting with the concave surface of the host. The More O'Ferrall-Jencks diagram and linear free energy relationships (LFERs) suggest a more advanced departure of the guest when bigger solvents partake in the displacement.

Abstract
A novel conformational motif constructed with a robust intramolecular hydrogen-bonding (H-bonding) network was discovered. A pyrrolidine derivative possessing four identical amide substituents at C(2) and C(5) formed a strong intramolecular H-bonding network consisting of all the amide groups. This conformation yielded a cyclochiral structure with a handedness that depended on the directionality of the H-bonding network. The most stable compound was isolated and applied to the acylative kinetic resolution of secondary alcohol. The handedness of the H-bonding network was biased by the presence of chiral substituents, and the preferred direction could be switched under an external stimulus. A structural analysis using NMR, X-ray crystallography, and theoretical calculation techniques indicated that the conformation of the substituents was highly ordered and depended on the directionality of the H-bonding network.

Abstract
The capacity of gated hosts for controlling a kinetic discrimination between stereoisomers is yet to be understood. To conduct corresponding studies, however, one needs to develop chiral, but modular and gated hosts. Accordingly, we used computational (RI-BP86/TZVP//RI-BP86/SV(P)) and experimental (NMR/CD/UV/Vis spectroscopy) methods to examine the transfer of chirality in gated baskets. We found that placing stereocenters of the same kind at the rim (R(1) =CH3, so-called bottom) and/or top amide positions (R(2) =sec-butyl) would direct the helical arrangement of the gates into a P or M propeller-like orientation. With the assistance of (1)H NMR spectroscopy, we quantified the intrinsic (thermodynamic) and constrictive (kinetic) binding affinities of (R)- and (S)-1,2-dibromopropane 5 toward baskets (S3b/P)-2, (S3t/M)-3, and (S3bt/P)-4. Interestingly, each basket has a low ( ≤1.3 kcal mol(-1)), but comparable (de<10%) affinity for entrapping enantiomeric (R/S)-5. In terms of the kinetics, basket (S3b/P)-2, with a set of S stereocenters at the bottom and P arrangement of the gates, would capture (R)-5 at a faster rate (kin(R)/kin(S) =2.0±0.2). Basket (S3t/M)-3, with a set of S centers at the top and M arrangement of the gates, however, trapped (S)-5 at a faster rate (kin(R)/kin(S) =0.30±0.05). In light of these findings, basket (S3bt/P)-4, with a set of S stereocenters installed at both top and bottom sites along with a P disposition of the gates, was found to have a lower ability to differentiate between enantiomeric (R/S)-5 (kin(R)/kin(S) =0.8). Evidently, the two sets of stereocenters in this "hybrid" host acted concurrently, each with the opposite effect on the entrapment kinetics. Gated baskets are hereby established to be a prototype for quantifying the kinetic discrimination of enantiomers through gating and elucidating the electronic/steric effects on the process.

Abstract
Cross-linking of the reverse micelles (RMs) of a triallylammonium surfactant afforded organic nanoparticles with introverted cationic groups. The cross-linked reverse micelles catalyzed size-selective biphasic reaction between sodium azide and alkyl bromides. Size selectivity of up to 9:1 was obtained for alkyl bromides with similar structures. The selectivity was influenced strongly by the size of the water pool and proposed to happen as a result of the "sieving" effect of the alkyl corona.

Abstract
We used dynamic (1)H NMR spectroscopic methods to examine the kinetics and thermodynamics of CH(3)CCl(3) (2) entering and leaving the gated molecular basket 1. We found that the encapsulation is first-order in basket 1 and guest 2, while the decomplexation is zeroth-order in the guest. Importantly, the interchange mechanism in which a molecule of CH(3)CCl(3) directly displaces the entrapped CH(3)CCl(3) was not observed. Furthermore, the examination of the additivity of free energies characterizing the encapsulation process led to us to deduce that the revolving motion of the gates and in/out trafficking of guests is synchronized, yet still a function of the affinity of the guest for occupying the basket: Specifically, the greater the affinity of the guest for occupying the basket, the less effective the gates are in "sweeping" the guest as the gates undergo their revolving motion.

Abstract
This tutorial review covers the recent development in the synthesis and application of molecules and finite assemblies that are chiral owing to their curvature. A modified definition of inherent chirality is provided. Various classes of chiral concave molecules are presented including salphen complexes, cyclic amides, derivatives of sumanene, trioxatricornan or subphthalocyanine, cyclotriveratrylenes, homooxacalix[3]arenes, calixarenes, resorcinarenes, phthalocyanines, corannulenes and cavitands. Some of these bowl shaped compounds exhibit high inversion barriers, comparable with the stability of classical carbon chirality centres, while the others (e.g. hydrogen bonded assemblies) can only be detected by NMR. This review is focused on practical aspects of synthesis, resolution and applications in chiral recognition and asymmetric synthesis.

Abstract
Supramolecular switches operate as simple machines by using a stimulus to turn stations off and on, generating thermodynamic differences that define bistability and enable motion. What has not been previously investigated, yet is required to gain further control over molecular movements for complex operations, is an understanding of how the same stimulus can also switch pathways off and on, thus, defining the kinetic property of bilability. To address this challenge, the mechanisms of the forward and return reactions of redox-switchable Cu(I)-based [2/3]pseudorotaxanes have been quantitatively characterized utilizing mechanistic cyclic voltammetry and employing a series of isosteric bis-bidentate ligands. First, the bistability of the switch is retained across the series of ligands: Reduction of the ligand drives the reaction forward where a [2]pseudorotaxane switches into a reduced [3]pseudorotaxane and reoxidation drives the switching cycle back to the beginning. Second, the switch is bilabile with the forward reaction following an association-activated interchange pathway (concerted), whereas the reverse reaction follows a different dissociation-based dethreading pathway (stepwise). The forward reaction is more sensitive to denticity (bidentate tetrazinyl ligand, k(2) = 12,000 M(-1) s(-1), versus the monodentate pyrazinyl ligand, k(2) = 1500 M(-1) s(-1)) than to electronics (k(2) = 12,000 M(-1) s(-1) for methyl and trifluoromethyl substituents). The rate of return with the pyrazinyl ligand is k(1) = 50 s(-1). Consequently, both the mechanism and the thermodynamics of switching are stimuli dependent; they change with the oxidation state of the ligand. These findings have implications for the future design of molecular motors, which can be built from systems displaying allosterically coupled bistability and bilability.

Abstract
An imine-linked (+)-syn-benzotricamphor derivative gives access to chiral unimolecular cages exhibiting internal cavities of new shapes and volumes. One of these hosts hydrocarbon gases at low temperatures in solution through CH-pi attractive interactions. No encapsulation is observed when the cage structure is too narrow or too large for the guest.
