Tunable Nano-Bending Structures of Loosened/Tightened Lassos with Bi-Stable Vibration-Induced Emissions for Multi-Manipulations of White-Light Emissions and Sensor Applications. ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2024; 36:e2311789.

Abstract
The first tunable nano-bending structures of [1]rotaxane containing a single-fluorophoric N,N'-diphenyl-dihydrodibenzo[a,c]phenazine (DPAC) moiety (i.e., [1]RA) are developed as a loosened lasso structure to feature the bright white-light emission [CIE (0.27, 0.33), Φ = 21.2%] in THF solution, where bi-stable states of bending and twisted structures of DPAC unit in [1]RA produce cyan and orange emissions at 480 and 600 nm, respectively. With acid/base controls, tunable loosened/tightened nano-loops of corresponding [1]rotaxanes (i.e., [1]RA/[1]RB) can be achieved via the shuttling of macrocycles reversibly, and thus to adjust their respective white-light/cyan emissions, where the cyan emission of [1]RB is obtained due to the largest conformational constraint of DPAC moiety in its bending form of [1]RB with a tightened lasso structure. Additionally, the non-interlocked analog M-Boc only shows the orange emission, revealing the twisted form of DPAC fluorophore in M-Boc without any conformational constraint. Moreover, the utilization of solvents (with different viscosities and polarities), temperatures, and water fractions could serve as effective tools to adjust the bi-stable vibration-induced emission (VIE) colors of [1]rotaxanes. Finally, tuning ratiometric emission colors of adaptive conformations of DPAC moieties by altering nano-bending structures in [1]rotaxanes and external stimuli can be further developed as intelligent temperature and viscosity sensor materials.

Abstract
Materials with stimuli-responsive purely organic room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) exempt from exquisite molecular design and complex preparation are highly desirable but still relatively rare. Moreover, most of them work in a single switching mode. Herein, we employ a versatile host-guest-doped strategy to facilely construct efficient RTP systems with multimode stimuli-responsiveness without ingenious molecular design. By conveniently doping butterfly-like guests, namely, N,N'-diphenyl-dihydrodibenzo[a,c]phenazines (DPACs), featured with vibration-induced emission into the small-molecular hosts via various methods, RTP systems with finely tunable photophysical properties are readily obtained. Through systematic mechanistic studies and with the aid of a series of control experiments, we unveil the critical role of the host crystallinity in achieving efficient RTP. By virtue of the inherent environmental sensitivity of both RTP and fluorescence of the DPACs, our systems exhibit multiple-stimuli-responsiveness with the luminescence not only switching between the fluorescence and phosphorescence but also continuously changing in the fluorescence color. Advanced dynamic anticounterfeiting and multilevel information encryption is thereby realized.

Abstract
In order to investigate the effect of macrocyclization and catenation on the regulation of vibration-induced emission (VIE), the typical VIE luminogen 9,14-diphenyl-9,14-dihydrodibenzo[a, c]phenazine (DPAC) was introduced into the skeleton of a macrocycle and corresponding [2]catenane to evaluate their dynamic relaxation processes. As investigated in detail by femtosecond transient absorption (TA) spectra, the resultant VIE systems revealed precisely tunable emissions upon changing the solvent viscosity, highlighting the key effect of the formation of [2]catenane. Notably, the introduction of an additional pillar[5]arene macrocycle featuring unique planar chirality endows the resultant chiral VIE-active [2]catenane with attractive circularly polarized luminescence in different states. This work not only develops a new strategy for the design of new luminescent systems with tunable vibration induced emission, but also provides a promising platform for the construction of smart chiral luminescent materials for practical applications.

Dual Stimuli-Responsive [2]Rotaxanes with Tunable Vibration-Induced Emission and Switchable Circularly Polarized Luminescence. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202319502.

Abstract
Aiming at the construction of novel stimuli-responsive fluorescent system with precisely tunable emissions, the typical 9,14-diphenyl-9,14-dihydrodibenzo[a, c]phenazine (DPAC) luminogen with attractive vibration-induced emission (VIE) behavior has been introduced into [2]rotaxane as a stopper. Taking advantage of their unique dual stimuli-responsiveness towards solvent and anion, the resultant [2]rotaxanes reveal both tunable VIE and switchable circularly polarized luminescence (CPL). Attributed to the formation of mechanical bonds, DPAC-functionalized [2]rotaxanes display interesting VIE behaviors including white-light emission upon the addition of viscous solvent, as evaluated in detail by femtosecond transient absorption (TA) spectra. In addition, ascribed to the regulation of chirality information transmission through anion-induced motions of chiral wheel, the resolved chiral [2]rotaxanes reveal unique switchable CPL upon the addition of anion, leading to significant increase in the dissymmetry factors (glum ) values with excellent reversibility. Interestingly, upon doping the chiral [2]rotaxanes in stretchable polymer, the blend films reveal remarkable emission change from white light to light blue with significant 6.5-fold increase in glum values up to -0.035 under external tensile stresses. This work provides not only a new design strategy for developing molecular systems with fluorescent tunability but also a novel platform for the construction of smart chiral luminescent materials for practical use.

Abstract
The viscosity distribution of micellar interiors from the very center to the outer surface is dramatically varied, which has been distinguished in theoretical models, yet it remains highly challenging to quantify this issue experimentally. Herein, a series of fluorophore-substituted surfactants DPAC-Fn (n = 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and 15) are developed by functionalizing the different alkyl-trimethylammonium bromides with the butterfly motion-based viscosity sensor, N,N'-diphenyl-dihydrodibenzo[a,c]phenazine (DPAC). The immersion depth of DPAC units of DPAC-Fn in cetrimonium bromide (C16TAB) micelles depends on the alkyl chain lengths n. From deep (n = 15) to shallow (n = 3), DPAC-Fn in C16TAB micelles exhibits efficient viscosity-sensitive dynamic multicolor emissions. With external standards for quantification, the viscosity distribution inside a C16TAB micelle with the size of ∼4 nm is changed seriously from high viscosity (∼190 Pa s) in the core center to low viscosity (∼1 Pa s) near the outer surface. This work provides a tailored approach for powerful micelle tools to explore the depth-dependent microviscosity of micellar interiors.

Abstract
Herein, pyridinium and 4-vinylpyridinium groups are introduced into the VIE-active N,N'-disubstituted-dihydrodibenzo[a,c]phenazines (DPAC) framework to afford a series of D-π-A-structured dihydrodibenzo[a,c]phenazines in consideration of the aggregation-benefited performance of the DPAC module and the potential mitochondria-targeting capability of the resultant pyridinium-decorated DPACs (DPAC-PyPF6 and DPAC-D-PyPF6). To modulate the properties and elucidate the structure-property relationship, the corresponding pyridinyl/4-vinylpyridinyl-substituted DPACs, i.e., DPAC-Py and DPAC-D-Py, are designed and studied as controls. It is found that the strong intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) effect enables the effective separation of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of DPAC-PyPF6 and DPAC-D-PyPF6, which is conducive to the generation of ROS. By adjusting the electron-accepting group and the π-bridge, the excitation, absorption, luminescence, photosensitizing properties as well as the mitochondria-targeting ability can be finely tuned. Both DPAC-PyPF6 and DPAC-D-PyPF6 display large Stokes shifts (70-222 nm), solvent-dependent absorptions and emissions, aggregation-induced emission (AIE), red fluorescence in the aggregated state (λem = 600-650 nm), aggregation-promoted photosensitizing ability with the relative singlet-oxygen quantum yields higher than 1.10, and a mitochondria-targeting ability with the Pearson coefficients larger than 0.85. DPAC-D-PyPF6 shows absorption maximum at a longer wavelength, slightly redder fluorescence and better photosensitivity as compared to DPAC-PyPF6, which consequently leads to the higher photocytotoxicity under the irradiation of white light as a result of the larger π-conjugation.

Abstract
The rapid progress in the field of fluorescent probes and fluorescent sensing material extended this research area toward more complex molecular logic gates capable of carrying out a variety of sensing functions simultaneously. These molecules are able to calculate a composite result in which the analysis is not performed by a man but by the molecular device itself. Since the first report by de Silva of AND molecular logic gate, all possible logic gates have been achieved at the molecular level, and currently, utilization of more complicated molecular logic circuits is a major task in this field. Comparison between two digits is the simplest logic operation, which could be realized with the simplest logic circuit. That is why the right understanding of the applied principles during the implementation of molecular digital comparators could play a critical role in obtaining logic circuits that are more complicated. Herein, all possible ways for the construction of comparators on the molecular level were discussed, and recent achievements connected with these devices were presented.

Abstract
Non-enzymatic sensors with the capability of long-term stability and low cost are promising in glucose monitoring applications. Boronic acid (BA) derivatives offer a reversible and covalent binding mechanism for glucose recognition, which enables continuous glucose monitoring and responsive insulin release. To improve selectivity to glucose, a diboronic acid (DBA) structure design has been explored and has become a hot research topic for real-time glucose sensing in recent decades. This paper reviews the glucose recognition mechanism of boronic acids and discusses different glucose sensing strategies based on DBA-derivatives-based sensors reported in the past 10 years. The tunable pKa, electron-withdrawing properties, and modifiable group of phenylboronic acids were explored to develop various sensing strategies, including optical, electrochemical, and other methods. However, compared to the numerous monoboronic acid molecules and methods developed for glucose monitoring, the diversity of DBA molecules and applied sensing strategies remains limited. The challenges and opportunities are also highlighted for the future of glucose sensing strategies, which need to consider practicability, advanced medical equipment fitment, patient compliance, as well as better selectivity and tolerance to interferences.

In this paper, a facilely synthesized amphiphilic macrocyclic acylhydrazone dimer (AMAD) can not only detect phthalate anion selectively, through both color changes and turn-on fluorescence in solution as well as in solid state, but is also able to remove it from either water or organic solvents. The current study paves the way for the search of more multiple functional receptors of dicarboxylates anions.

Abstract
Chemical tools capable of classifying multidrug-resistant bacteria (superbugs) can facilitate early-stage disease diagnosis and help guide precision therapy. Here, we report a sensor array that permits the facile phenotyping of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a clinically common superbug. The array consists of a panel of eight separate ratiometric fluorescent probes that provide characteristic vibration-induced emission (VIE) profiles. These probes bear a pair of quaternary ammonium salts in different substitution positions around a known VIEgen core. The differences in the substituents result in varying interactions with the negatively charged cell walls of bacteria. This, in turn, dictates the molecular conformation of the probes and affects their blue-to-red fluorescence intensity ratios (ratiometric changes). Within the sensor array, the differences in the ratiometric changes for the probes result in "fingerprints" for MRSA of different genotypes. This allows them to be identified using principal component analysis (PCA) without the need for cell lysis and nucleic acid isolation. The results obtained with the present sensor array agree well with those obtained using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis.

Abstract
Developing an artificial dynamic nanoscale molecular machine that dissipatively self-assembles far from equilibrium is fundamentally important but is significantly challenging. Herein, we report dissipatively self-assembling light-activated convertible pseudorotaxanes (PRs) that show tunable fluorescence and enable deformable nano-assemblies. A pyridinium-conjugated sulfonato-merocyanine derivative (EPMEH) and cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) form the 2EPMEH ⊂ CB[8] [3]PR in a 2:1 stoichiometry, which phototransforms into a transient spiropyran containing 1:1 EPSP ⊂ CB[8] [2]PR when exposed to light. The transient [2]PR thermally relaxes (reversibly) to the [3]PR in the dark accompanied by periodic fluorescence changes that include near-infrared emission. Moreover, octahedral and spherical nanoparticles are formed through the dissipative self-assembly of the two PRs, and the Golgi apparatus is dynamically imaged using fluorescent dissipative nano-assemblies.

Abstract
Utilizing nonplanar conjugated molecules as building blocks facilitates the development of self-assembly but is fundamentally challenging. To study the self-assembly behavior, we herein demonstrate the self-assembly process of a nonplanar conjugated molecule with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) feature from an isolated molecule to an irregular cluster to a well-defined vesicle driven by amphiphiles. The superhigh aggregation-sensitive emission affords more precise and detailed information about the self-assembly process than traditional dyes. Meanwhile, the arrangements of the AIE-active molecule change from disordered to well-organized forms by reducing the twisted configuration during the transformation process, and the strong hydrophobicity of amphiphiles is crucial for such configuration and morphology transformations. Owing to the thermophilic bacteria-mimetic membranes, the obtained vesicles exhibit a property of superhigh thermal stability. They also display promising light-harvesting applications. This work not only deciphers the self-assembly of AIE molecules but also provides a strategy for nonplanar molecules to build well-organized self-assemblies.

Abstract
Dynamic control of molecular photoluminescence offers chemical solutions to designing functional emissive materials. Although stimuli-switchable molecular luminescent systems are well established, how to encode these dynamic emissive systems with a "timing" feature, that is, time-dependent luminescent properties, remains challenging. This Concept aims to summarize the design principles of dynamic timing molecular photoluminescent systems by discussing the state-of-the-art of this topic and the shaping of fabrication strategies at both the molecular and supramolecular levels. An outlook and perspectives are given to outline the future opportunities and challenges in the rational design and potential applications of these smart emissive systems.

Abstract
Dynamic fluorophore 9,14-diphenyl-9,14-dihydrodibenzo[a,c]phenazine (DPAC) affords a new platform to produce diverse emission outputs. In this paper, a novel DPAC-containing crown ether macrocycle D-6 is synthesized and characterized. Host-guest interactions of D-6 with different ammonium guests produced a variety of fluorescence with hypsochromic shifts up to 130 nm, which are found to be affected by choice of solvent or guest and host/guest stoichiometry. Formation of supramolecular complexes were confirmed by UV-vis titration, 1H NMR and HRMS spectroscopy.

Abstract
A novel highly water-soluble 1,8-naphthalimide with pH and viscosity-sensing fluorescence was synthesized and investigated. The synthesized compound was designed as a molecular device in which a molecular rotor and molecular “off-on” switcher were integrated. In order to obtain a TICT driven molecular motion at C-4 position of the 1,8-naphthalimide fluorophore, a 4-methylpiperazinyl fragment was introduced. The molecular motion was confirmed after photophysical investigation in solvents with different viscosity; furthermore, the fluorescence-sensing properties of the examined compound were investigated in 100% aqueous medium and it was found that it could be used as an efficient fluorescent probe for pH. Due to the non-emissive deexcitation nature of the TICT fluorophore, the novel system showed low yellow–green emission, which represented “power-on”/“rotor-on” state. The protonation of the methylpiperazine amine destabilized the TICT process, which was accompanied by fluorescence enhancement indicating a “power-on”/“rotor-off” state of the system. The results obtained clearly illustrated the great potential of the synthesized compound to serve as pH- and viscosity-sensing material in aqueous solution.

Abstract
The field of anion recognition chemistry is dominated by two fundamental approaches to design receptors. One relies on the formation of covalent bonds resulting in organic and often neutral host species, while the other one utilizes metal-driven self-assembly for the formation of charged receptors with well-defined nanocavities. Yet, the combination of their individual advantages in the form of charge-neutral metal-assembled bench-stable anion receptors is severely lacking. Herein, we present a fluorescent and uncharged double-stranded hydroxyquinoline-based zinc(II) helicate with the ability to bind environmentally relevant dicarboxylate anions with high fidelity in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at nanomolar concentrations. These dianions are pinned between zinc(II) centers with binding constants up to 145 000 000 M-1. The presented investigation exemplifies a pathway to bridge the two design approaches and combine their strength in one structural motif as an efficient anion receptor.

Abstract
A great number of anions exist in biological systems and natural environment, and are highly relevant to human health and environment quality. It is necessary to develop simple and effective sensors to differentiate and identify those similar or different anions. Here, an imidazolium-modified bispyrene-based fluorescent amphiphilic probe DPyDIM was synthesized and its aggregates were applied to detect and discriminate various anions. The fluorescent aggregates exhibit ratiometric responses to different types of anions. Moreover, the ratiometric responses to different types of anions are featured with multiple-wavelength cross-reactivity. The collection of fluorescence variation at four typical wavelengths can generate distinct recognition patterns to specific anions. The heat map and principal component analysis results verify that this single fluorescent sensor system can effectively and sensitively identify 16 kinds of anions that belong to phosphorus-containing, sulfur-containing anions, and anionic surfactants. The cross-reactive sensing of the amphiphilic fluorescent aggregates was attributed to the different influences on the aggregation behaviors of the probes by different anions. The present work provides a promising strategy for effective detection and discrimination of multiple anions by employing dynamic fluorescent aggregates as a sensing platform.

Abstract
An AB2 -type monomer comprised of a calix[4]pyrrole skeleton and alternating bis-carboxylate units is reported and used for the construction of a novel supramolecular hyperbranched polymer based on anion recognition ability of calix[4]pyrrole. 1 H-, DOSY-NMR spectroscopy, viscosity measurements, and dynamic light scattering techniques are used for the characterization of the supramolecular hyperbranched polymer exhibiting thermo-, pH-, and chemical responsiveness, as well as concentration dependent morphology tune as inferred from electron microscopy analyses. The present study enriches the field of supramolecular polymers with a new construction motif, building block, and provides a simple approach for the fabrication of smart polymer material with multi-responsiveness and -morphologies.

Abstract
While supramolecular hosts capable of binding and transporting anions and ion pairs are now widely available, self‐assembled architectures are still rare, even though they offer an inherent mechanism for the release of the guest ion(s). In this work, we report the dynamic covalent self‐assembly of tripodal, urea‐based anion cryptates that are held together by two orthoester bridgeheads. These hosts exhibit affinity for anions such as Cl−, Br− or I− in the moderate range that is typically advantageous for applications in membrane transport. In unprecedented experiments, we were able to dissociate the Cs⋅Cl ion pair by simultaneously assembling suitably sized orthoester hosts around the Cs+ and the Cl− ion.

Abstract
Oxidative damage caused by upregulated nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Currently, stimulus-triggered theranostic agents have received much attention due to benefits on disease imaging and targeted therapeutic effects. However, the development of a theranostic agent triggered by NO for AD remains unexplored. Herein, through the mechanism analysis of the reaction between a fluorophore of 9,14-diphenyl-9,14-dihydrodibenzo[a,c]phenazine (DPAC) and NO, which we occasionally found and thereafter structure optimization of DPAC, a theranostic agent DPAC-(peg)4-memantine was fabricated. In an AD cellular model, DPAC-(peg)4-memantine exhibits NO sensing ability for AD imaging. Meanwhile, DPAC-(peg)4-memantine shows improved therapeutic by targeted drug release triggered by NO and sustained therapeutic effects owing to the synergetic antioxidative abilities via the anti-AD drug and NO scavenging. This work provides an unprecedented avenue for the studies on not only AD but also other diseases with NO upregulation.

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
Constructing multicolor photoluminescent materials with tunable properties is an attractive research objective on account of their abundant applications in materials science and biomedical engineering. By comparison with covalent synthesis, supramolecular chemistry has provided a more competitive and promising strategy for the production of organic materials and the regulation of their photophysical properties. By taking advantage of dynamic and reversible noncovalent bonding interactions, supramolecular strategies can, not only simplify the design and fabrication of organic materials, but can also endow them with dynamic reversibility and stimuli responsiveness, making it much easier to adjust the superstructures and properties of the materials. Occasionally, it is possible to introduce emergent properties into these materials, which are absent in their precursor compounds, broadening their potential applications. In an attempt to highlight the state-of-the-art noncovalent strategies available for the construction of smart luminescent materials, an overview of color-tunable materials is presented in this Review, with the emphasis being placed on the examples drawn from host-guest complexes, supramolecular assemblies and crystalline materials. The noncovalent synthesis of room-temperature phosphorescent materials and the modulation of their luminescent properties are also described. Finally, future directions and scientific challenges in the emergent field of color-tunable supramolecular emissive materials are discussed.

Abstract
Fluorescent supramolecular polymers combine the benefits of supramolecular polymers in terms of dynamic nature with the optoelectronic features of incorporated fluorophores. However, the majority of fluorescent supramolecular polymers can only exhibit a single fluorescent state, restricting their applications. Incorporating J-type dyes into supramolecular monomers is expected to impart supramolecular polymers with variable fluorescence colors, because the aggregation mode of J-type dyes is closely related to the formation of supramolecular polymers. Herein, we report a supramolecular polymer [M1·Zn(OTf)2 ]n , in which the monomer M1 contains a J-type dye, oligo(p-phenylene vinylene) (OPV) derivative, and two terpyridine ends. The M1 + Zn(OTf)2 solutions exhibit fluorescence color changes varying from cyan to yellow-green in the monomer concentration ranging from 0.04 to 1.00 mM. Moreover, based on the outputs from laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM), the fluorescence color transition during the formation of supramolecular polymers is intuitively proven. Additionally, considering the close relationship between the supramolecular polymer structure and the fluorescence color, the fluorescence color can be regulated by introducing tetraethylammonium hydroxide (TBAOH) that can bind with Zn2+ competitively to break up the structure of the supramolecular polymer.

Abstract
Dynamic control over molecular emission, especially in a time-dependent manner, holds great promise for the development of smart luminescent materials. Here we report a series of dynamic multicolor fluorescent systems based on the time-encoded locking and unlocking of individual vibrational emissive units. The intramolecular cyclization reaction driven by adding chemical fuel acts as a chemical lock to decrease the conformational freedom of the emissive units, thus varying the fluorescence wavelength, while the resulting chemically locked state can be automatically unlocked by the hydrolysis reaction with water molecules. The dynamic molecular system can be driven by adding chemical fuels for multiple times. The emission wavelength and lifetime of the locking states can be readily controlled by elaborating the molecular structures, indicating this strategy as a robust and versatile way to modulate multi-color molecular emission in a time-encoded manner.

Abstract
Molecular weight determinations play a vital role in the characterization of supramolecular polymers. They are essential to assessing the degree of polymerization, which in turn can have a significant impact on the properties of the polymer. While numerous characterization methods have been developed to estimate the number-average molecular weight (Mn) of supramolecular polymers, a simple visual method could provide advantages in terms of ease of use. We have now developed a system wherein differences in the fluorescent signature, including changes in color, allow variations in the Mn of an anion-responsive supramolecular polymer [M1·Zn(OTf)2]n to be readily monitored. The present visual differentiation strategy provides a tool that may be used to characterize supramolecular polymers. Issues of molecular weight determination have been central to the development of supramolecular polymer chemistry. Whereas relationships between concentration and optical features are established for well-behaved absorptive and emissive species, for most supramolecular polymeric systems no simple correlation exists between optical performance and number-average molecular weight (Mn). As such, the Mn of supramolecular polymers have to be inferred from various measurements. Herein, we report an anion-responsive supramolecular polymer [M1·Zn(OTf)2]n that exhibits monotonic changes in the fluorescence color as a function of Mn. Based on theoretical estimates, the calculated average degree of polymerization (DPcal) increases from 16.9 to 84.5 as the monomer concentration increases from 0.08 mM to 2.00 mM. Meanwhile, the fluorescent colors of M1 + Zn(OTf)2 solutions were found to pass from green to yellow and to orange, corresponding to a red shift in the maximum emission band (λmax). Therefore, a relationship between DPcal and λmax could be established. Additionally, the anion-responsive nature of the present system meant that the extent of supramolecular polymerization could be regulated by introducing anions, with the resulting change in Mn being readily monitored via changes in the fluorescent emission features.

Abstract
Preparation of nanofilms which are able to reject water-soluble low molecular weight organic compounds in nanofiltration remains to be a challenge. Herein, we report a new kind of self-standing, defect-free, robust, centimeter-sized and thickness controllable calix[4]pyrrole (C[4]P)-based nanofilms with excellent molecular sieving performance in nanofiltration. The nanofilms were prepared via confined dynamic condensation of the tetra-benzoyl-hydrazine derivative of calix[4]pyrrole (CPTBH) with 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxaldehyde (BTC) at the air/dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) interface. Nanofiltration tests under 2 bar pressure with porous polyethylene terephthalate (PET) as the support and a CsF treated CPTBH-BTC nanofilm (∼100 nm) as the selective layer depicted a water permeance of 15 L m-2h-1 bar-1 and a methanol permeance of 45 L m-2h-1 bar-1. High rejection rates (>95%) were found in aqueous solution for most of the tested dyes and pharmaceuticals. Remarkably, the composite membrane also demonstrated good separation performance in aqueous phase to some amino acids and organic dyes with molecular weights around 200 g/mol. High-performance nanofiltration in methanol was also realized. In this case, the molecular weight cutoff value is ∼ 800 g/mol. These findings showed that introduction of macrocyclic hosts is an effective way to develop nanofilms with high solvent permeance but low molecular weight cutoff value.

Abstract
Herein, we show the synergistic combination of aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) units into two hexagonal metallacycles. The resultant metallacycles displayed emergent photophysical properties including tunable fluorescence using the polarity and solubility of the solvents as well as enhanced emissive efficacy. Our work demonstrates the synergistic enhancement of these two orthogonal effects via coordination-driven self-assembly.

Abstract
Abstract
Functional materials serve as the basic elements for the evolution of technology. Aggregation-induced emission (AIE), as one of the top 10 emerging technologies in chemistry, is a scientific concept coined by Tang, et al. in 2001 and refers to a photophysical phenomenon with enhanced emission at the aggregate level compared to molecular states. AIE-active materials generally present new properties and performance that are absent in the molecular state, providing endless possibilities for the development of technological applications. Tremendous achievements based on AIE research have been made in theoretical exploration, material development and practical applications. In this review, AIE-active materials with triggered luminescence of circularly polarized luminescence, aggregation-induced delayed fluorescence, room-temperature phosphorescence, and clusterization-triggered emission at the aggregate level are introduced. Moreover, high-tech applications in optoelectronic devices, responsive systems, sensing and monitoring, and imaging and therapy are briefly summarized and discussed. It is expected that this review will serve as a source of inspiration for innovation in AIE research and aggregate science.

Abstract
Herein, a molecular pixel system for full-color luminescence reproduction is achieved by adjusting the colorless mixtures of two matching fluorophores, i.e., polarity-insensitive 9,14-diphenyl-9,14-dihydrodibenzo[a,c]phenazine (DPAC) as the fixed red primary color and polarity-sensitive dansylamide (DSA) as dynamic blue to green primary colors. DPAC and DSA possess independent emission properties free from electron and energy transfer crosstalk between them because of their close frontier molecular orbitals as well as similar absorptions below 400 nm. According to the additive color theory, under diverse mixing ratios and various polarities, a smooth emission color change is realized in the triangle surrounded by the luminophores in the chromaticity diagram with accurate prediction and expedient reproduction. The principle of this system may open an innovative route for the development of powerful full-color luminescent materials, for example, ratiometric fluorescent polarity sensors and invisible fluorescent crayons.

Abstract
The development of chemosensors to detect analytes in biologically relevant solutions is a challenging task. We report the synthesis of a fluorescent receptor that combines vibration-induced emission (VIE) and dynamic covalent chemistry for the detection of glucose in aqueous media. We show that the bis-2-(N-methylaminomethyl)phenylboronic acid-decorated N,N'-diphenyl-dihydrodibenzo[a,c]phenazine (DPAC) receptor 1 can detect glucose and discriminate between closely related monosaccharides including those commonly found in blood. Preliminary studies suggest monosaccharides bind to the DPAC-receptor with a 1:1 stoichiometry to produce pseudomacrocyclic complexes, which in turn leads to distinct optical changes in the fluorescent emission of the receptor for each host. Moreover, the complexation-induced change in emission can be detected visually and quantified in a ratiometric way. Our results highlight the potential of VIE-type receptors for the quantitative determination of saccharides in biological samples.

Abstract
Reduction of alkyl dihalide guests (2-5 and 7) with trialkylsilanes (R3 SiH) was performed in water-soluble host 1 to investigate the effects of confinement on fast radical reactions (k≥103 m-1 s-1 ). High selectivity (>95 %) for mono-reduced products was observed for primary and secondary dihalide guests under mild conditions. The results highlight the importance of host-guest complexation rates to modulate the product selectivity in radical reactions.

Abstract
Since as early as 1867, molecular sensors have been recognized as being intelligent "devices" capable of addressing a variety of issues related to our environment and health (e.g., the detection of toxic pollutants or disease-related biomarkers). In this review, we focus on fluorescence-based sensors that incorporate supramolecular chemistry to achieve a desired sensing outcome. The goal is to provide an illustrative overview, rather than a comprehensive listing of all that has been done in the field. We will thus summarize early work devoted to the development of supramolecular fluorescent sensors and provide an update on recent advances in the area (mostly from 2018 onward). A particular emphasis will be placed on design strategies that may be exploited for analyte sensing and corresponding molecular platforms. Supramolecular approaches considered include, inter alia, binding-based sensing (BBS) and indicator displacement assays (IDAs). Because it has traditionally received less treatment, many of the illustrative examples chosen will involve anion sensing. Finally, this review will also include our perspectives on the future directions of the field.
