Abstract
The application of thermosensitive fluorescent supramolecular polymers in advanced optical materials, chemical sensors, artificial optical devices, and external stimulus responses remains underdeveloped. In this study, we introduced a novel method for constructing a mechanically interlocked fluorescent supramolecular polymer utilizing host-guest interactions, including C-H···π interactions and π-π stacking. This polymer exhibits outstanding temperature-sensitive fluorescence properties and is environmentally friendly due to its recyclability. Leveraging the polymer's fluorescence response at critical temperature ranges, we developed a high-temperature warning device. This device utilizes the temperature-sensitive fluorescence characteristic of the polymer to indicate dangerous temperature levels, thereby demonstrating its potential in practical safety applications.

Hashidzume A, Itami T, Nakahata M, Kamon Y, Yamaguchi H, Harada A. Additive-assisted macroscopic self-assembly and control of the shape of assemblies based on host-guest interaction. Sci Rep 2024; 14:20676. [PMID: 39237578 PMCID: PMC11377729 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-71649-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2024] [Accepted: 08/29/2024] [Indexed: 09/07/2024] Open
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.

Abstract
Great effort has been dedicated to the engineering of porous organic cages (POCs) in geometry and topology. Yet, harnessing these cage-like entities as premade building units to construct infinite cage-based superstructures remains elusive. In this study, we design a type of vertex-modified phosphine organic prism by a postfunctionalized approach and use it as a ditopic cage monomer to achieve an intercage supramolecular polymerization via the synergy of metal coordination and π-π dimerization. The resulting cage-by-cage polymers can further hierarchically organize into superstructures of diverse morphologies and dimensionalities, including 1D fibers, 2D lamellae, and 3D vesicles. Control over the cosolvents is capable of well regulating their structural hierarchies and self-assembled shapes. This would pave a way for the creation of cage-based supramolecular assemblies and nanomaterials.

Abstract
The construction and modification of novel energetic frameworks to achieve an ideal balance between high energy density and good stability are a continuous pursuit for researchers. In this work, a fused [5,6,5]-tricyclic framework was utilized as the energetic host to encapsulate the oxidant molecules for the first time. A series of new pyridazine-based [5,6] and [5,6,5] fused polycyclic nitrogen-rich skeletons and their derivatives were designed and synthesized. Two strategies, amino oxidation and host-guest inclusion, were used to modify the skeleton in only one step. All compounds exhibit good comprehensive properties (Td (onset) > 200 °C, ρ > 1.85 g cm-3, Dv > 8400 m s-1, IS > 20 J, FS > 360 N). Benefiting from the pyridazine-based fused tricyclic structure with more hydrogen bonding units and larger conjugated systems, the first example of [5,6,5]-tricyclic host-guest energetic material triamino-9H-pyrazolo[3,4-d][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine-diperchloric acid (10), shows high decomposition temperature (Td (onset) = 336 °C), high density and heats of formation (ρ = 1.94 g cm-3, ΔHf = 733.4 kJ mol-1), high detonation performance (Dv = 8820 m s-1, P = 36.2 GPa), high specific impulse (Isp = 269 s), and low sensitivity (IS = 30 J, FS > 360 N). The comprehensive performance of 10 is superior to that of high-energy explosive RDX and heat-resistant explosives such as HNS and LLM-105. 10 has the potential to become a comprehensive advanced energetic material that simultaneously satisfies the requirements of high-energy and low-sensitivity explosives, heat-resistant explosives, and solid propellants. This work may give new insights into the construction and modification of a nitrogen-rich polycyclic framework and broaden the applications of fused polycyclic framework for the development of host-guest energetic materials.

Abstract
Pure organic phosphorescence resonance energy transfer is a research hotspot. Herein, a single-molecule phosphorescence resonance energy transfer system with a large Stokes shift of 367 nm and near-infrared emission is constructed by guest molecule alkyl-bridged methoxy-tetraphenylethylene-phenylpyridines derivative, cucurbit[n]uril (n = 7, 8) and β-cyclodextrin modified hyaluronic acid. The high binding affinity of cucurbituril to guest molecules in various stoichiometric ratios not only regulates the topological morphology of supramolecular assembly but also induces different phosphorescence emissions. Varying from the spherical nanoparticles and nanorods for binary assemblies, three-dimensional nanoplate is obtained by the ternary co-assembly of guest with cucurbit[7]uril/cucurbit[8]uril, accompanying enhanced phosphorescence at 540 nm. Uncommonly, the secondary assembly of β-cyclodextrin modified hyaluronic acid and ternary assembly activates a single intramolecular phosphorescence resonance energy transfer process derived from phenyl pyridines unit to methoxy-tetraphenylethylene function group, enabling a near-infrared delayed fluorescence at 700 nm, which ultimately applied to mitochondrial targeted imaging for cancer cells.

Abstract
Smart luminescent materials that have the ability to reversibly adapt to external environmental stimuli and possess a wide range of responses are continually emerging, which place higher demands on the means of regulation and response sites. Here, europium ions (Eu3+)-directed supramolecular metallogels are constructed by orthogonal self-assembly of Eu3+ based coordination interactions and hydrogen bonding. A new organic ligand (L) is synthesized, consisting of crown ethers and two flexible amide bonds-linked 1,10-phenanthroline moieties to coordinate with Eu3+. Synergistic intermolecular hydrogen bonding in L and Eu3+-L coordination bonding enable Eu3+ and L to self-assemble into shape-persistent 3D coordination metallogels in MeOH solution. The key to success is the utilization of crown ethers, playing dual roles of acting both as building blocks to build L with C2-symmetrical structure, and as the ideal monomer for increasing the energy transfer from L to Eu3+'s excited state, thus maintaining the excellent luminescence of metallogels. Interestingly, such assemblies show K+, pH, F-, and mechano-induced reversible gel-sol transitions and tunable luminescence properties. Above findings are useful in the studies of molecular switches, dynamic assemblies, and smart luminescent materials.

Abstract
Over the past decades, supramolecular luminescent materials (SLMs) have attracted considerable attention due to their dynamic noncovalent interactions, versatile functions, and intriguing applications in many research fields. From construction to application, great efforts and progress have been made in color-tunable SLMs in recent years. In order to realize multicolor luminescence, various design strategies have been proposed. Macrocyclic chemistry, one of the brightest jewels in the field of supramolecular chemistry, has played a crucial role in the construction of stimuli-responsive and emission-tunable SLMs. Moreover, the flexible and tunable conformation and multiple noncovalent complexation sites of the macrocyclic arenes (MAs) afford a new opportunity to create such dynamic smart luminescent materials. Inspired by our reported work on the color-tunable supramolecular crystalline assemblies modulated by the conformation of naphth[4]arene, this Concept provides a summary of the latest developments in the construction of color-tunable MA-based SLMs, accompanied by the various construction strategies. The aim is to provide researchers with a new perspective to construct color-tunable SLMs with fascinating functions.

Abstract
Supramolecular polymer networks contain non-covalent cross-links that enable access to broadly tunable mechanical properties and stimuli-responsive behaviors; the incorporation of multiple unique non-covalent cross-links within such materials further expands their mechanical responses and functionality. To date, however, the design of such materials has been accomplished through discrete combinations of distinct interaction types in series, limiting materials design logic. Here we introduce the concept of leveraging "nested" supramolecular crosslinks, wherein two distinct types of non-covalent interactions exist in parallel, to control bulk material functions. To demonstrate this concept, we use polymer-linked Pd2L4 metal-organic cage (polyMOC) gels that form hollow metal-organic cage junctions through metal-ligand coordination and can exhibit well-defined host-guest binding within their cavity. In these "nested" supramolecular network junctions, the thermodynamics of host-guest interactions within the junctions affect the metal-ligand interactions that form those junctions, ultimately translating to substantial guest-dependent changes in bulk material properties that could not be achieved in traditional supramolecular networks with multiple interactions in series.

Abstract
Different from most of the conventional platforms with dissatisfactory theranostic capabilities, supramolecular nanotheranostic systems have unparalleled advantages via the artful combination of supramolecular chemistry and nanotechnology. Benefiting from the tunable stimuli-responsiveness and compatible hierarchical organization, host-guest interactions have developed into the most popular mainstay for constructing supramolecular nanoplatforms. Characterized by the strong and diverse complexation property, cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) shows great potential as important building blocks for supramolecular theranostic systems. In this review, we summarize the recent progress of CB[8]-based supramolecular theranostics regarding the design, manufacture and theranostic mechanism. Meanwhile, the current limitations and corresponding reasonable solutions as well as the potential future development are also discussed.

Abstract
Nature owns the ability to construct structurally different polymers from the same monomers. While polymers can be classified as covalent polymers (CPs) and supramolecular polymers (SPs), it is still difficult to synthesize CPs and SPs using same monomers like nature do. Herein, M1 with two diazo salts on both the ends was designed. Additionally, hydroquinone was chosen to be M2 for the existence of two hydroxyl groups. When mixing at room temperature, M1 and M2 self-assembled to SPs via N…H hydrogen bonds. In another way, upon the exposure to ultraviolet irradiation when blending M1 with M2, CPs were fabricated in the presence of covalent bonds. The excellent thermal stability of CPs was determined by TGA and DSC, while the great corrosion resistance of covalent polymers was detected by acid or alkali immersion. In this way, constructing two kinds of polymers using the same monomers was successfully achieved. This shows tremendous potential in fields of polymer science, supramolecular chemistry, which would boom the development of polymers.

Abstract
Chiral self-assembly is the spontaneous organization of individual building blocks from chiral (bio)molecules to macroscopic objects into ordered superstructures. Chiral self-assembly is ubiquitous in nature, such as DNA and proteins, which formed the foundation of biological structures. In addition to chiral (bio) molecules, chiral ordered superstructures constructed by self-assembly have also attracted much attention. Chiral self-assembly usually refers to the process of forming chiral aggregates in an ordered arrangement under various non-covalent bonding such as H-bond, π-π interactions, van der Waals forces (dipole-dipole, electrostatic effects, etc.), and hydrophobic interactions. Chiral assembly involves the spontaneous process, which followed the minimum energy rule. It is essentially an intermolecular interaction force. Self-assembled chiral materials based on chiral recognition in electrochemistry, chiral catalysis, optical sensing, chiral separation, etc. have a broad application potential with the research development of chiral materials in recent years.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA), a mycotoxin found in various food items, possesses significant health risks due to its carcinogenic and toxic properties. Thus, detecting OTA is crucial to ensure food safety. Among the reported analytical methods, there has yet to be one that achieves fast, selective, and portable detection of OTA. In this study, we explore a novel supramolecular sensor, DOCE@ALB, utilizing human serum albumin as the host and a flavonoid fluorescent indicator as the guest. On the basis of indicator displacement assay, this sensor boasts an ultra-fast response time of just 5 s, high sensitivity with a limit of detection at 0.39 ppb, exceptional selectivity, and a noticeable ratiometric fluorescence response to OTA. This discernible color change and portability of the sensor make it suitable for on-site OTA detection in real food samples, including flour, beer, and wine, simply using a smartphone. In comparison to previously reported methods, our approach has showcased notable advantages in both response time and portability, addressing a critical need for food safety and regulatory compliance.

Abstract
The construction of organic-inorganic hybrid supramolecular polymers using polyoxometalate (POM) as building block is expected to bring new opportunities to the functionalization of supramolecular polymers and the development of novel POM-based soft materials. Here, by using the orthogonal self-assembly based on host-guest interactions and metal-ligand interactions, we report the in situ construction of a novel POM-based hybrid supramolecular polymer (POM-SP) at the oil-water interface, while the redox and competitive responsiveness can be triggered independently. Moreover, the binding energy of POM-SP at the interface is sufficiently strong so that the assembly of POM-SP jams, allowing the stabilization of liquids in nonequilibrium shapes, offering the possibility of fabricating all-liquid constructs with reconfigurability.

Abstract
Hydrogels containing synthetic polymers and supramolecular cross-linking units are expected to exhibit unique functions and properties. The heme-heme pocket interaction in hemeproteins may be useful for development of a cross-linking unit because heme binding depends on the redox states of the iron center. In this work, hexameric tyrosine-coordinated hemoprotein (HTHP) is employed as a cross-linking unit in a polyacrylamide gel to create redox-responsive hydrogels. First, redox-dependent stability of the heme-heme pocket interaction in HTHP was evaluated, and it was found that the heme affinity dramatically decreases in the Fe(ii) state. Second, the polymerization of acrylamide and engineered HTHP possessing acryloyl group-tethering heme moieties provided a polyacrylamide gel containing HTHP as a cross-linking unit. A reduction-triggered gel-sol transition in the presence of apomyoglobin was observed. Furthermore, the mechanical properties of the gels containing the engineered HTHP and methylene bisacrylamide were evaluated by a tensile test, and the Young's modulus value was determined to be 14 kPa, which is higher than that of the control gel containing only methylene bisacrylamide (8.5 kPa). Compression tests of the gels revealed redox-responsive mechanical behavior, resulting in a decrease in the compressive modulus upon the addition of a reductant. This behavior is qualitatively consistent with the redox-responsive heme binding of HTHP in a solution state. This finding is expected to contribute to the development of redox-responsive materials for biomedical and biological applications.

Abstract
The extensive utilization of neonicotinoid insecticides (NNIs) in agricultural practices ultimately poses a significant threat to both the environment and human health. This work focuses on the efficient degradation and detoxification of the representative NNI, thiamethoxam (THX), and explores the underlying mechanism using a Co-Fe-Mn mixed spinel doped carbon composite catalyst activated persulfate. The findings demonstrate that the composite effectively degrades THX, achieving a degradation rate of 95% in 30 mins, while requiring only a fraction (one-sixteenth) of the oxidant dosage compared to pure carbon. The study aimed to examine the negative impact of reactive halogens on reactive oxygen species within a saline environment. The degradation byproducts were linked to the presence of two common electron-withdrawing groups, namely halogens and nitro in the THX molecule. It was hypothesized that the degradation process was primarily influenced by C-N bond breaking and hydroxylation occurring between the diazine oxide and 2-chlorothiazole rings. Consequently, dehalogenation and carbonylation processes facilitated the elimination of halogenated components and pharmacophores from the THX, leading to detoxification. In addition to the identified free radical pathway including SO4•-, •OH and O2•- contributed to THX degradation, the participation of non-radical pathways (1O2 and electron transfer) were also confirmed. The efficacy of detoxification was further validated through toxicity assessment, employing quantitative conformation relationship prediction and microbial culture utilizing Bacillus subtilis.

Abstract
Chirality is a universal phenomenon in molecular and biological systems, denoting an asymmetric configurational property where an object cannot be superimposed onto its mirror image by any kind of translation or rotation, which is ubiquitous on the scale from neutrinos to spiral galaxies. Chirality plays a very important role in the life system. Many biological molecules in the life body show chirality, such as the "codebook" of the earth's biological diversity-DNA, nucleic acid, etc. Intriguingly, living organisms hierarchically consist of homochiral building blocks, for example, l-amino acids and d-sugars with unknown reason. When molecules with chirality interact with these chiral factors, only one conformation favors the positive development of life, that is, the chiral host environment can only selectively interact with chiral molecules of one of the conformations. The differences in chiral interactions are often manifested by chiral recognition, mutual matching, and interactions with chiral molecules, which means that the stereoselectivity of chiral molecules can produce changes in pharmacodynamics and pathology. Here, the latest investigations are summarized including the construction and applications of chiral materials based on natural small molecules as chiral source, natural biomacromolecules as chiral sources, and the material synthesized by design as a chiral source.

Abstract
The selectivity of the linear polymer chain toward its binding moieties has been considered negligible; thus, a clear demonstration showing the best-fit binding of a linear polymer to its guest counterpart is still unknown. Luminescent poly(acrylic acid) (PAA)-stabilized silver nanodots (PAA-AgNDs) have been applied as a turn-on sensor to monitor the interaction between the PAA chain and its binding cations. The binding of cations ions to the PAA chain may cross-link the linear PAA chain via coordination with carboxylate, which increases the rigidity of the polymer chain, retards the nonradiative decay of PAA-AgNDs, and consequently enhances the emission of silver nanodots while inducing a blue-shift of its emission spectrum. For the first time, we have demonstrated that a linear polymer chain can act as an open host to selectively bind to its best-matching cations. Specifically, among Group 2 cations (Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+), calcium ions show the strongest bonding to the PAA polymer chain. Our research suggests that, with extra rigidity, the polymer improves its chemical stability as calcium ions cross-linked the linear polymer. Meanwhile, it has also been demonstrated that luminescent silver nanodots can be excellent probes for the detection of polymer activities with straightforward and simple visualization methods.

Abstract
Network topologies, especially some high-order topologies, are able to furnish cross-linked polymer materials with enhanced properties without altering their chemical composition. However, the fabrication of such topologically intriguing architectures at the macromolecular level and in-depth insights into their structure-property relationship remain a significant challenge. Herein, we relied on synergistic covalent-and-supramolecular polymers (CSPs) as a platform to prepare a range of polymer networks with an interwoven topology. Specifically, through the sequential supramolecular self-assemblies, the covalent polymers (CPs) and metallosupramolecular polymers (MSPs) could be interwoven in our CSPs by [2]pseudorotaxane cross-links. As a result, the obtained CSPs possessed a topological network that could not only promote the synergistic effect between CPs and MSPs to afford mechanically robust yet dynamic materials but also vest polymers with some functions, as manifested by force-induced hierarchical dissociations of supramolecular interactions and superior thermomechanical stability compared to our previously reported CSP systems. Furthermore, our CSPs exhibited tunable mechanical performance toward multiple stimuli including K+ and PPh3, demonstrating abundant stimuli-responsive properties. We hope that these findings could provide novel opportunities toward achieving topological structures at the macromolecular level and also motivate further explorations of polymeric materials via the way of controlling their topological structures.

Abstract
Non-covalent interactions have been extensively used to fabricate nanoscale architectures in supramolecular chemistry. However, the biomimetic self-assembly of diverse nanostructures in aqueous solution with reversibility induced by different important biomolecules remains a challenge. Here, we report the synthesis and aqueous self-assembly of two chiral cationic porphyrins substituted with different types of side chains (branched or linear). Helical H-aggregates are induced by pyrophosphate (PPi) as indicated by circular dichroism (CD) measurement, while J-aggregates are formed with adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for the two porphyrins. By modifying the peripheral side chains from linear to a branched structure, more pronounced H- or J-type aggregation was promoted through the interactions between cationic porphyrins and the biological phosphate ions. Moreover, the phosphate-induced self-assembly of the cationic porphyrins is reversible in the presence of the enzyme alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and repeated addition of phosphates.

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
A supramolecule photosensitizer (supra-photosensitizer) based on the host-guest complexation of cyclodextrins and a bis-chalcone dye (BDEA) was prepared. Methyl-β-cyclodextrin (Me-β-CD), with the highest inclusion rate, was confirmed as the best host among the four cyclodextrins. The host-guest properties of Me-β-CD and BDEA were characterized by FTIR, XRD, 1H NMR, PLQY, SEM, Job's plot, Benesi-Hildebrand plot, and others. Compared to the conventional photosensitizers, the supra-photosensitizers showed higher fluorescence emission and longer fluorescence lifetime whether as a powder or distributed in a film. The improvement in fluorescence coincided with improvement in photoinitiation efficiency and was proven to enhance the generation of volume grating. It is expected that the supra-photosensitizer may open a new avenue for the design of high-performance photoinitiation systems.

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
Liquid-repellent coatings with rapid self-healing and strong substrate adhesion have tremendous potential for industrial applications, but their formulation is challenging. We exploit synergistic chemistry between donor-acceptor self-assembly units of polyurethane and hydrophobic metal-organic framework (MOF) nanoparticles to overcome this challenge. The nanocomposite features a nanohierarchical morphology with excellent liquid repellence. Using polyurethane as a base polymer, the incorporated donor-acceptor self-assembly enables high strength, excellent self-healing property, and strong adhesion strength on multiple substrates. The interaction mechanism of donor-acceptor self-assembly was revealed via density functional theory and infrared spectroscopy. The superhydrophobicity of polyurethane was achieved by introducing alkyl-functionalized MOF nanoparticles and post-application silanization. The combination of the self-healing polymer and nanohierarchical MOF nanoparticles results in self-cleaning capability, resistance to tape peel and high-speed liquid jet impacts, recoverable liquid repellence over a self-healed notch, and low ice adhesion up to 50 icing/deicing cycles. By exploiting the porosity of MOF nanoparticles in our nanocomposites, fluorine-free, slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces with stable, low ice adhesion strengths were also achieved by infusing silicone oil into the coatings.

Abstract
The study of dynamic supramolecular chirality inversion (SMCI) not only helps to deepen the understanding of chiral transfer and amplification in both living organizations and artificially chemical self-assembly systems but also is useful for the development of smart chiral nanomaterials. However, it is still challenging to achieve the dynamic SMCI of the self-aggregation of metal-organic supramolecular polymers with great potential in asymmetric synthesis, chiroptical switches, and circular polarized luminescence. Here, we successfully developed a hierarchical coassembly system based on the mPAzPCC and various metal ions with effective chirality transfer and temporal-controlled SMCI. Due to the dynamic self-assembly and hierarchical chirality transfer of the Ag+/mPAzPCC complex driven by metallophilic interaction and coordination, morphological transition with nanoribbons, helical nanoribbons, and chiral nanotubules was successively obtained. Interestingly, the SMCI of chiral nanoaggregates was precisely regulated by solvents and metal ions in the Cu2+/mPAzPCC and Mn2+/mPAzPCC system. Besides, temporal-controlled dynamic SMCI switching from helix to bundled helix was clearly revealed in the aggregation of Cu2+/mPAzPCC, Mn2+/mPAzPCC, and Bi3+/mPAzPCC systems. This work provides a metallophilic interaction-mediated helical assembly pathway to dynamically modulate the chirality of metal-organic complex-based assemblies and deepen the understanding of the hierarchically dynamic self-assembly process, which would be of great potential in metal ion-mediated supramolecular asymmetric catalysis and bioinspired chiral sensing.

Abstract
A new potential route to enhance the efficiency of supramolecular polymers for cancer chemotherapy was successfully demonstrated by employing a photosensitive metallosupramolecular polymer (Hg-BU-PPG) containing an oligomeric poly(propylene glycol) backbone and highly sensitive pH-responsive uracil-mercury-uracil (U-Hg-U) bridges. This route holds great promise as a multifunctional bioactive nano-object for development of more efficient and safer cancer chemotherapy. Owing to the formation of uracil photodimers induced by ultraviolet irradiation, Hg-BU-PPG can form a photo-cross-linked structure and spontaneously forms spherical nanoparticles in aqueous solution. The irradiated nanoparticles possess many unique characteristics, such as unique fluorescence behavior, highly sensitive pH-responsiveness, and intriguing phase transition behavior in aqueous solution as well as high structural stability and antihemolytic activity in biological media. More importantly, a series of cellular studies clearly confirmed that the U-Hg-U photo-cross-links in the irradiated nanoparticles substantially enhance their selective cellular uptake by cancer cells via macropinocytosis and the mercury-loaded nanoparticles subsequently induce higher levels of cytotoxicity in cancer cells (compared to non-irradiated nanoparticles), without harming normal cells. These results are mainly attributed to cancer cell microenvironment-triggered release of mercury ions from disassembled nanoparticles, which rapidly induce massive levels of apoptosis in cancer cells. Overall, the pH-sensitive U-Hg-U photo-cross-links within this newly discovered supramolecular system are an indispensable factor that offers a potential path to remarkably enhance the selective therapeutic effects of functional nanoparticles toward cancer cells.

Abstract
The precise sequence control of polymer chain is an important research topic of polymer chemistry. Although some methods such as iterative synthesis and supramolecular polymerization have been developed to fabricate sequence-controllable polymer, it is still a great challenge to consecutively prepare multiple supramolecular polymers with different sequence structures. In this work, through the reasonable utilization of assembly motifs, we integrated multiple host-guest recognitions and metal coordination interactions to prepare different sequence-controlled supramolecular polymers by a multistep assembly strategy. This research provides inspiration for the design and preparation of supramolecular polymers with different sequence structures.

Abstract
Naphthyl groups are widely used as building blocks for the self-assembly of supramolecular crystal networks. Host-guest complexation of cucurbit[8]uril (Q[8]) with two guests NapA and Nap1 in both aqueous solution and solid state has been fully investigated. Experimental data indicated that double guests resided within the cavity of Q[8], generating highly stable homoternary complexes NapA2@Q[8] and Nap12@Q[8]. Meanwhile, the strong hydrogen-bonding and π···π interaction play critical roles in the formation of 1D supramolecular chain, as well as 2D and 3D networks in solid state.

Abstract
To overcome the low water solubility and low bioavailability of curcumin (CUR), multiple delivery strategies have been proposed. Among these, cyclodextrin-based carriers have been widely used for the encapsulation and delivery of CUR. Cyclodextrins (CDs), as natural oligosaccharides, have been well known for their biodegradability, biocompatibility, non-toxicity, and internal hydrophobic and external hydrophilic structural features. This paper summarizes the recently reported CD-based carriers for encapsulating CUR. Particularly, the polymerization properties of CD self-assembly to enhance the encapsulation of CUR are discussed. In addition, the current progress on stimuli-responsive CD carriers for controlled release of CUR is described, which laid an important foundation for the development of CUR-based precision therapy in clinical practice. In conclusion, this review may provide ideas for the future development of a CD-based encapsulant for CUR.

Abstract
Triazole hosts allow cooperative binding of anions via hydrogen bonds, which makes them versatile systems for application in anion binding catalysis to be performed in organic solvents. The anion binding behavior of a tetratriazole host is systematically studied by employing a variety of salts, including chloride, acetate, and benzoate, as well as different cations. Classical nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) titrations demonstrate a large influence of cation structures on the anion binding constant, which is attributed to poor dissociation of most salts in organic solvents and corrupts the results of classical titration techniques. We propose an approach employing electrophoretic NMR (eNMR), yielding drift velocities of each species in an electric field and thus allowing a distinction between charged and uncharged species. After the determination of the dissociation constants KD for the salts, electrophoretic mobilities are measured for all species in the host-salt system and are analyzed in a model which treats anion binding as a consecutive reaction to salt dissociation, yielding a corrected anion binding constant KA. Interestingly, dependence of KA on salt concentration occurs, which is attributed to cation aggregation with the anion-host complex. Finally, by the extrapolation to zero salt concentration, the true anion-host binding constant is obtained. Thus, the approach by eNMR allows a fully quantitative analysis of two factors that might impair classical anion binding studies, namely, an incomplete salt dissociation as well as the occurrence of larger aggregate species.

Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27196677.

Abstract
We report on the green preparation of one-dimensional metal coordination polymers by sonochemical approach. The spacer ligand 4,4'-bipyridine was ultrasonicated with chloride or acetate zinc salts to obtain [Zn(4,4'-bipy)Cl2]∞ and [Zn(4,4'-bipy)2(OAc)2]∞, respectively. Benign solvents such as ethanol and water were selected as reaction media, and the synthesis took place in a few minutes-a very short time compared to conventional methods where some days' synthesis is required. X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermal analysis (thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimetry), and CHN techniques investigated the influence of using different reaction solvents on the chemical, structural, and thermal properties of the final products. The 1D [Zn(4,4'-bipy)Cl2]∞ and [Zn(4,4'-bipy)2(OAc)2]∞ polymers, in agreement with the structures reported in the literature, were obtained in the form of nanocrystals with an average crystal size around 100 nm. As a proof of concept, a set of Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative bacteria (Klebsiella pneumoniae), and three yeast strains (Candida albicans, Candida krusei, Candida glabrata) were tested to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the coordination polymers, following the Kirby-Bauer procedure and microplate dilution method. Thus, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), and minimal biofilm inhibitory concentration (MBIC) were evaluated. Except for Candida krusei, the compounds showed an appreciable antimicrobial and antibiofilm activity against these strains grown in the liquid medium.

Abstract
A novel orthogonal supramolecular polymer (Q[10]-TPDPB-Lu3+) in a host-guest ratio of 2:1 was successfully constructed utilizing the specificity and excellent cavity matching of Q[10] with the tripyridine derivatives (TPDPB). Significantly, non-covalent interactions between Q[10]'s hydrophobic cavities and Lu3+ were used to induce charge transfer of TPDPB to TPDPB and TPDPB to Lu3+, resulting in the construction of structurally interesting orthogonal assemblies with excellent fluorescence properties. Finally, the Q[10]-TPDPB-Lu3+ assemblies were shown to have good recognition and classification of strong and weak acid anions as well as iodide anions, and the classification was accompanied by a clear fluorescence emission change allowing visual observation.

Abstract
The nature of mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs) has continued to encourage researchers to design and construct a variety of high-performance materials. Introducing mechanically interlocked structures into polymers has led to novel polymeric materials, called mechanically interlocked polymers (MIPs). Rotaxane-based MIPs are an important class, where the mechanically interlocked characteristic retains a high degree of structural freedom and mobility of their components, such as the rotation and sliding motions of rotaxane units. Therefore, these MIP materials are known to possess a unique set of properties, including mechanical robustness, adaptability and responsiveness, which endow them with potential applications in many emerging fields, such as protective materials, intelligent actuators, and mechanisorption. In this review, we outline the synthetic strategies, structure-property relationships, and application explorations of various polyrotaxanes, including linear polyrotaxanes, polyrotaxane networks, and rotaxane dendrimers.

Abstract
Unsaturated polyester resins (UPRs) are expansively used in different applications and recycling the significant amounts of UPR waste is still a universal problem. Vitrimerization is a feasible, environmental-friendly, cost effective, and operative method, which can be used for recycling the crosslinked UPRs. In this method, the thermoset permanent network is changed into a dynamic network similar to the vitrimer-type polymers. The results show that the existence of a transesterification catalyst in the system significantly enhances the efficiency of vitrimerization. The vitrimerized UPR thermosets can be reprocessed three times with mechanical properties comparable to the initial UPR. The results show that the excess of external hydroxyl groups in the system can prevent the formation of zinc ligand complexes in the network and consequently reduce the crosslinked density and mechanical properties of vitrimerized samples. The vitrimerized thermoset powder can be reprocessed through injection molding, extrusion, and compression molding which are conventional thermoplastic processing techniques. The unrecyclable UPR thermoset wastes can be recycled and reused through vitrimerization with the least loss in mechanical properties.

Abstract
Due to its highly conjugated panel-like structure and unique photophysical and chemical features, anthracene has been widely used for fabricating attractive and functional supramolecular assemblies, including two-dimensional metallacycles and three-dimensional metallacages. The embedded anthracenes in these assemblies often show synergistic effects on enhancing the desired supramolecular and luminescent properties. This review focuses on the metallasupramolecular architectures with anthracene-containing building blocks, as well as their applications in host-guest chemistry, stimulus response, molecular sensing, light harvesting, and biomedical science.

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.
