Abstract
Two hydrogen-bonded crosslinked organic frameworks (HCOFs) were synthesized via free radical reactions utilizing butadiene and isoprene as crosslinkers. These HCOFs exhibit high crystallinity, enabling detailed structural characterization via single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Subsequently, one of the olefin-rich HCOFs was converted to a hydroxylated framework through hydroboration-oxidation while maintaining the high crystallinity.

Abstract
Macrocyclic molecules have characteristic properties different from linear ones, such as high symmetry and guest-inclusion ability. To bring drastic changes to these properties, direct introduction of many substituents is a challenging but effective tool. Herein, we attain direct installation of ten six-membered-ring aromatic π-units into both rims of a pillar[5]arene. In contrast to previous pillar[n]arenes with less hindered five-membered-ring units, which showed conformational complexity and crushed crystal structures, the per-phenyl-substituted pillar[5]arene has a cylinder-shaped crystal structure with a dichloromethane inside the cavity and is obtained as a single pair of D 5-symmetric enantiomers. The average dihedral angles between the core and peripheral benzene rings sharply increase from 38° to 66°. These differences indicate the importance of local steric repulsion on both rims for determining the structures and properties of macrocycles.

Abstract
Supramolecular assembly frameworks (SAFs) represent a new category of porous materials, utilizing non-covalent interactions, setting them apart from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs). This category includes but is not restricted to hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks and supramolecular organic frameworks. SAFs stand out for their outstanding porosity, crystallinity, and stability, alongside unique dissolution-recrystallization dynamics that enable significant structural and functional modifications. Crucially, their non-covalent assembly strategies allow for a balanced manipulation of porosity, symmetry, crystallinity, and dimensions, facilitating the creation of advanced crystalline porous materials unattainable through conventional covalent or coordination bond synthesis. Despite their considerable promise in overcoming several limitations inherent to MOFs and COFs, particularly in terms of solution-processability, SAFs have received relatively little attention in recent literature. This Minireview aims to shed light on standout SAFs, exploring their design principles, synthesis strategies, and characterization methods. It emphasizes their distinctive features and the broad spectrum of potential applications across various domains, aiming to catalyze further development and practical application within the scientific community.

Abstract
Organic photoluminescent macrocyclic hosts have been widely advanced in many fields. Phosphorescent hosts with the ability to bind organic guests have rarely been reported. Herein, acyclic cucurbituril modified with four carboxylic acids (ACB-COOH) is mined to present uncommon purely organic room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) at 510 nm with a lifetime of 1.86 μs. Its RTP properties are significantly promoted with an extended lifetime up to 2.12 s and considerable quantum yield of 6.29% after assembly with a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix. By virtue of the intrinsic self-crimping configuration of ACB-COOH, organic guests, including fluorescence dyes (Rhodamine B (RhB) and Pyronin Y (PyY)) and a drug molecule (morphine (Mor)), could be fully encapsulated by ACB-COOH to attain energy transfer involving phosphorescent acyclic cucurbituril. Ultimately, as-prepared systems are successfully exploited to establish multicolor afterglow materials and visible sensing of morphine. As an expansion of phosphorescent acyclic cucurbituril, the host afterglow color can be readily regulated by attaching different aromatic sidewalls. This study develops the fabrication strategies and application scope of a supramolecular phosphorescent host and opens up a new direction for the manufacture of intelligent long-lived luminescent materials.

Abstract
Soft porous organic crystals with stimuli-responsive single-crystal-to-single-crystal (SCSC) transformations are important tools for unraveling their structural transformations at the molecular level, which is of crucial importance for the rapid development of stimuli-responsive systems. Carefully balancing the crystallinity and flexibility of materials is the prerequisite to construct advanced organic crystals with SCSC, which remains challenging. Herein, a squaraine-based soft porous organic crystal (SPOC-SQ) with multiple gas-induced SCSC transformations and temperature-regulated gate-opening adsorption of various C1-C3 hydrocarbons is reported. SPOC-SQ is featured with both crystallinity and flexibility, which enable pertaining the single crystallinity of the purely organic framework during accommodating gas molecules and directly unveiling gas-framework interplays by SCXRD technique. Thanks to the excellent softness of SPOC-SQ crystals, multiple metastable single crystals are obtained after gas removals, which demonstrates a molecular-scale shape-memory effect. Benefiting from the single crystallinity, the molecule-level structural evolutions of the SPOC-SQ crystal framework during gas departure are uncovered. With the unique temperature-dependent gate-opening structural transformations, SPOC-SQ exhibits distinctly different absorption behaviors towards C3 H6 and C3 H8 , and highly efficient and selective separation of C3 H6 /C3 H8 (v/v, 50/50) is achieved at 273 K. Such advanced soft porous organic crystals are of both theoretical values and practical implications.

Abstract
The exploration of emerging functionalized quantum dots (QDs) through modulating the effective interaction between the sensing element and target analyte is of great significance for high-performance trace sensing. Here, the chromone-based ligand grafted QDs (QDs-Chromone) were initiated to realize the electronic energy transfer (EET) driven specifically by ethylenediamine (EDA) in the absence of spectral overlap. The fluorescent and colorimetric dual-mode responses (from red to blue and from colorless to yellow, respectively) resulting from the expanded conjugated ligands reinforced the analytical selectivity, endowing an ultrasensitive and specific response to submicromolar-liquid of EDA. In addition, a QDs-Chromone-based sensing chip was constructed to achieve the ultrasensitive recognition of EDA vapor with a naked-eye observed response at a concentration as low as 10 ppm, as well as a robust anti-interfering ability in complicated scenarios monitoring. We expect the proposed EET strategy in shaping functionalized QDs for high-performance sensing will shine light on both rational probe design methodology and deep sensing mechanism exploration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gas chromatography is worldwide recognized as one of the most important analytical techniques, due to its high versatility and reliability. The heart of a gas chromatograph is the column, that allows analyte peak separations and, consequently, accurate qualitative and qualitative analyses. New and more efficient columns are always requested to satisfy new and challenging analytical needs. RESULTS In this work, imidazolium ionic liquids functionalized pillar [5] arenes have been used for the first time as gas chromatographic stationary phases, considering their highly symmetric pillar-shaped architecture with cavities rich in π-electrons. Four imidazolium ionic liquids functionalized pillar [5] arenes have been tested as stationary phases with numerous analytes and isomers. In particular, one of these showed superior performances if compared to commercial columns, enabling challenging isomeric separations of halogenated benzenes, aromatic aldehydes, and aromatic anilines. SIGNIFICANCE AND NOVELTY To our knowledge, this is the first report on the use of the ionic liquid P[n]A as a stationary phase in chromatography, either in GC or liquid chromatography (LC) separations. This work demonstrates the promising potential of ionic liquid P[n]A stationary phases for chromatographic separations.

Abstract
The global demand for intelligent sensing of aromatic amines has consistently increased due to concerns about health and the environment. Efforts to improve material design and understand mechanisms have been made, but highly efficient non-contact sensing with host-guest structures remains a challenge. Herein, we report the first example of non-contact, high-contrast sensing of aromatic amines in a hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF) based on a nitro-modified stereo building block. Direct observation of binding interactions of trapped amines is achieved, leading to charge separation-induced emission quenching between host and guests. Non-contact sensing of aniline and diphenylamine is realized with quenching efficiencies up to 91.7 % and 97.0 %, which shows potential for versatile applications. This work provides an inspiring avenue to engineer multifunctional HOFs via co-crystal preparations, thus enriching applications of porous materials with explicit mechanisms.

Abstract
Installation of various substituents is a reliable and versatile way to alter the properties of macrocyclic molecules, but high-yield and controlled methods are not always available especially for multifold reactions. Herein, we report 10- and 12-fold introduction of aryl substituents onto both rims of cylinder-shaped pillar[n]arenes, which usually have alkoxy substituents slanting to the cylinder axes. Although alkoxy pillar[5]arenes exist as D5-symmetric enantiomeric pairs, arylated pillar[5]arenes provide crushed single-crystal structures and stereoisomerism including C2-symmetric conformations depending on the aryl groups. Pillar[n]arenes with 2-benzofuranyl groups display bright fluorescence with quantum yields of 88-90% and no host-guest complexation with electron-deficient molecules in solution due to large deviation from alkoxy compounds. A benzofuran-appended pillar[6]arene instead captures small gaseous molecules in the solid state, probably owing to outside spaces surrounded by aromatic rings.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 444:130428.

Abstract
Simultaneous regulation of adsorption and photocatalytic performance of covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) to achieve efficient control of organic pollution in water is a promising strategy, but remains a formidable challenge. Herein, pyridine linkers were innovatively introduced into pristine CTF (p-CTF) and the bidirectional electron donor-acceptor (EDA) system of contaminant-to-pyridine and pyridine-to-triazine was constructed inside. Experimental results combined with theoretical calculations revealed that pyridine units with π-deficient properties performed as electron acceptors and electron donors in the adsorption and photocatalytic processes, respectively. This special structure provided a directional pathway for electron transfer, which endowed CTFs with excellent adsorption and photocatalytic properties. Compared to p-CTF, pyridine-linked CTF (M-CTF) showed a 16-fold increase in adsorption capacity for naphthalene (973.4 μmol·g-1). Benefiting from the optimized light absorption and electron transfer form (n → π*transition), M-CTF exhibited high regeneration efficiency after adsorption of both bisphenol A (94 % after 4 cycles) and naphthalene (95 % after 4 cycles). Besides, the removal performance of organic micropollutants from natural water showed a great advantage thanks to the bidirectional EDA system. Overall, the present study provides new insights into the optimization of electronic structures for carbon-based environmental functional materials applied to organic pollution control in water.

Abstract
Synthetic receptors are powerful tools for molecular recognition. They can bind to guests with high selectivity and affinity, and their structures are tunable and diversified. These features, plus the relatively low cost and high simplicity in synthesis and modification, support the feasibility of array-based molecular analysis with synthetic receptors for improved selectivity in the recognition of a wide range of targets. More attractively, host-guest interaction is reversible and guest displacement allows biocompatible and gentle release of the host-bound molecules, simplifying the stimulation designs needed to control analyte sensing, enrichment, and transportation. Here, we highlight a few recent advancements in using synthetic receptors for molecular analysis and manipulation, with the focus on macrocyclic receptors and their applications in displacement sensing, separation, imaging, and drug transport.

Abstract
With the serendipitous discovery of crown ethers by Pedersen more than half a century ago and the subsequent introduction of host-guest chemistry and supramolecular chemistry by Cram and Lehn, respectively, followed by the design and synthesis of wholly synthetic cyclophanes-in particular, fluorescent cyclophanes, having rich structural characteristics and functions-have been the focus of considerable research activity during the past few decades. Cyclophanes with remarkable emissive properties have been investigated continuously over the years and employed in numerous applications across the field of science and technology. In this Review, we feature the recent developments in the chemistry of fluorescent cyclophanes, along with their design and synthesis. Their host-guest chemistry and applications related to their structure and properties are highlighted.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive organic materials with controllable luminescence are of enormous importance because of their potential applications in sensing, data security, and display devices. In this study, a multistimuli-responsive squaraine dyad (SQ-d) composed of two rigid squaraine moieties and a flexible ethylene linker was rationally designed and synthesized. SQ-d exhibits polymorphic luminescence, which can be reversibly switched by various external stimuli, including solvent vapor exposure, heat, and shear force. Unexpectedly, the weakly luminescent phase (O1) of SQ-d exhibits concentration-controlled vapochromic behavior. Film O1 can convert to a highly green-emissive phase (G1) under a low concentration of CHCl3 vapor and convert to a highly yellow-emissive phase (Y) under a high concentration of CHCl3 vapor; these originate from two distinct crystallization-induced emission enhancement processes. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first investigation of the effect of vapor concentration on the phase transitions of organic vapochromic luminophores. By analyzing the single-crystal structures and photophysical properties of SQ-d, we concluded that the green and yellow emissions probably originated from a zigzag stacking mode and an H-type π-π stacking mode, respectively. Finally, two prototypes based on SQ-d for applications in information encryption and vapor sensing were successfully demonstrated.

Abstract
Despite the fact that the rim and lateral functionalizations of pillar[n]arenes have been well explored, ortho-functionalization has rarely been realized. In this work, we report a facile method of introducing a single functionality ortho to the hydroxyl group in A1/A2-dihydroxypillar[5]arene via a Grignard addition to pillar[4]arene[1]quinone followed by a dienone-phenol rearrangement. The described ortho-alkylation/arylation method allowed formation of various mono ortho-alkyl/aryl-substituted A1/A2-dihydroxypillar[5]arenes previously difficult to obtain.

Abstract
Here, we announce the establishment of a new family of organic molecular cages, named cagearenes, by taking advantage of a versatile strategy. These cagearenes were prepared via the Friedel–Crafts reaction by condensing two equivalents of a precursor bearing three 1,4-dimethoxybenzene groups and three equivalents of formaldehyde. Two cages, namely cagearene-1 and cagearene-2, are obtained and well characterized. The cagearene-1 solid exhibits the ability to adsorb benzene vapour from an equimolar benzene/cyclohexane mixture with a purity of 91.1%. Then, the adsorbed benzene molecules can be released from the cage at a relatively lower temperature, namely 70 °C, as a consequence of which, cyclohexane with a high purity was left within the cage solid. Heating the cage solid further at 130 °C led to the production of cyclohexane with a purity up to 98.7%. As inferred from the single crystal structures and theoretical calculations, the ability of the cage in programmed release of benzene and cyclohexane results from the different binding modes of these two guests. Two organic cages, cagearene-1 and cagearene-2, are prepared. The cagearene-1 solid selectively absorbs benzene vapor from a benzene/cyclohexane mixture and is used to achieve temperature-controlled programmed vapor release.![]()

Abstract
Anti-Aβ therapy has dominated clinical trials for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, suppressing Aβ aggregation and disintegrating mature fibrils simultaneously remains a great challenge. In this work, we developed a new strategy using a charged tubular supramolecule (CTS) with pillar[5]arene as the backbone and modifying amino and carboxyl groups at the tubular terminals (noted as CTS-A, CTS-A/C, and CTS-C, respectively) to suppress Aβ fibrillation for the first time. According to the spectroscopic and microscopic characterizations, Aβ40 fibrillation can be efficiently suppressed by CTS-A in a very low inhibitor:peptide (I:P) molar ratio (1:10). A greatly alleviated cytotoxic effect of Aβ peptides after the inhibition or disaggregation process is further disclosed. The well-organized supramolecular structure drives multivalent interaction and gains enhanced efficiency on amyloid fibrillar modulation. These results open a new path for the design of supramolecules in the application of AD treatment.

Abstract
A luminescent molecular crystal (P5bipy) and a Cu(I)-coordinated luminescent nanocrystal (Cu(I)-P5bipy) have been prepared concurrently using one conjugated pillar[5]arene macrocycle via a facile supramolecular self-assembling strategy. The molecular crystal shows enhanced luminescence compared with unmodified pillar[5]arene, attributed to its conjugated structure and staggered packing mode, while the coordination nanocrystal exhibits well-defined crystalline structures and long-lifetime triplet state emission along with pronounced solvochromic features.

Abstract
Several new chiral pillar[4]arene[1]quinone derivatives were synthesized by reacting pillar[4]arene[1]quinone (EtP4Q1), containing four 1,4-diethoxybenzene units and one benzoquinone unit, with various chiral amines via Michael addition. Due to the direct introduction of chiral substituents on the rim of pillar[n]arene and the close location of the chiral center to the rim of EtP4Q1, the newly prepared compounds showed unique chiroptical properties without complicated chiral resolution processes, and unprecedented high anisotropy factor of up to −0.018 at the charge transfer absorption band was observed. Intriguingly, the benzene sidearm attached pillar[4]arene[1]quinone derivative 1a showed solvent- and complexation-driven chirality inversion. This work provides a promising potential for absolute asymmetric synthesis of pillararene-based derivatives.

Abstract
A pillar[5]-bis-trithiacrown (L) capable of metal binding and organic guest threading simultaneously has been employed, and the influence of dinitrile guests [CN(CH2)nCN (n = 2-6: abbreviated C2-C6)] on the coordination behaviors has been investigated. When the ditopic ligand L was reacted with HgCl2 in the presence of the C2-C6 guests, the shorter guests C2 and C3 afforded a two-dimensional coordination polymer [Hg7Cl14(C2@L)2]n (1) and a one-dimensional coordination polymer [(Hg3Cl6)2(C3@L)2]n (2), respectively. In 1 and 2, each dinitrile guest threads into the pillararene cavity to form a C2@L or C3@L unit via the host-guest interaction. Further linking of these units by exocyclic Hg-S bonds and anion coordination lead to the formation of coordination products with different dimensionalities. While the use of the longer guests C4-C6 under the same reactions yielded a discrete dimercury(II) complex 3, [Hg2Cl4(CH3CN@L)] which contains one acetonitrile solvent molecule because the longer dinitriles do not serve as effective guests. In the NMR and UV-vis studies, the association constants (log K1:1) for the host-guest interactions of L with the dinitrile guests are C2 (4.75) > C3 (4.17) ≫ C4 (2.85) > C5 (2.45) > C6 (too small), indicating that the shorter guests C2 or C3 interact more strongly than longer ones due to the confined interior space of L. Taken collectively, the C2 and C3 guests with proper size-matching promote the formation of coordination polymers and vice versa, suggesting that the guest size could be a controlling factor.

Abstract
The detection of pesticides in real-world environments is a high priority for a broad range of applications, including in areas of public health, environmental remediation, and agricultural sustainability. While many methods for pesticide detection currently exist, the use of supramolecular fluorescence-based methods has significant practical advantages. Herein, we will review the use of fluorescence-based pesticide detection methods, with a particular focus on supramolecular chemistry-based methods. Illustrative examples that show how such methods have achieved success in real-world environments are also included, as are areas highlighted for future research and development.
