Abstract
Chiral self-assembly of molecules warrants optimal structural features of synthons that promote formation of such self-assembled structures. A polyaromatic moiety coupled with hydrophilic, chiral-rich carbohydrates leads to segmentation of the regions and the self-assembly to supramolecular structures. Thermodynamic stability is augmented further through chiral self-assembly of the molecules, and formation of the desired chiral supramolecular structures is achieved. In the present study, we develop anthracene glycosides as efficient synthons that, in aqueous solutions, undergo facile self-assembly and lead to chiral supramolecular structures. Anthracenemethyl O-glycosides, installed with mono- and disaccharides, are studied for their self-assembly properties. Emerging chiral structures follow the configuration of the attached sugar moiety. Monosaccharide d- and l-glycopyranoside-containing derivatives alternate between left- and right-handed chiral structures, respectively. Disaccharide-containing derivatives do not exhibit chirality, even when self-assembly occurred. Photochemical [4π + 4π] cycloaddition occurs in the self-assembled structure in aqueous solution. Cell viability assay using HeLa cells shows above 80% viable cells at a concentration of 50 μM. Bioimaging assays reveal a significant imaging of HeLa cells for anthracenemethyl d-glucopyranoside; bright imaging was observed at the perinuclear region of the cells, suggestive of an active transport of the molecules through the cell membrane. d-Galactopyranoside and l-glucopyranoside-containing derivatives show weak imaging potencies.

Abstract
Carbohydrates have been regarded as one of the most ideally suited candidates for chirality study via self-assembly owning to their unique chemical structures, abundance, and sustainability. Much efforts have been devoted to design and synthesize diverse carbohydrate derivatives and self-assemble them into various supermolecular morphologies. Nevertheless, still inadequate attention is paid to deeply and comprehensively understand how the carbohydrate structures and self-assembly approaches affect the final morphologies and properties for future demands. Herein, to fulfill the need, a range of recently published studies relating to the chirality of carbohydrates is reviewed and discussed. Furthermore, to tune the chirality of carbohydrate-based structures on both molecular and superstructural levels via chirality transfer and chirality expression, the designing of the molecules and choosing of the proper approaches for self-assembly are elucidated.

Abstract
Copper(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between organic azides and terminal alkynes, commonly known as CuAAC or click chemistry, has been identified as one of the most successful, versatile, reliable, and modular strategies for the rapid and regioselective construction of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles as diversely functionalized molecules. Carbohydrates, an integral part of living cells, have several fascinating features, including their structural diversity, biocompatibility, bioavailability, hydrophilicity, and superior ADME properties with minimal toxicity, which support increased demand to explore them as versatile scaffolds for easy access to diverse glycohybrids and well-defined glycoconjugates for complete chemical, biochemical, and pharmacological investigations. This review highlights the successful development of CuAAC or click chemistry in emerging areas of glycoscience, including the synthesis of triazole appended carbohydrate-containing molecular architectures (mainly glycohybrids, glycoconjugates, glycopolymers, glycopeptides, glycoproteins, glycolipids, glycoclusters, and glycodendrimers through regioselective triazole forming modular and bio-orthogonal coupling protocols). It discusses the widespread applications of these glycoproducts as enzyme inhibitors in drug discovery and development, sensing, gelation, chelation, glycosylation, and catalysis. This review also covers the impact of click chemistry and provides future perspectives on its role in various emerging disciplines of science and technology.

Abstract
Self-assembled supramolecular organic materials with π-functionalities are of great interest because of their applications as biocompatible nanoelectronics. A detailed understanding of molecular parameters to modulate the formation of hierarchical structures can inform design principles for materials with engineered optical and electronic properties. In this work, we combine molecular-level characterization techniques with all-atom molecular simulations to investigate the subtle relationship between the chemical structure of peptide-π-peptide molecules and the emergent supramolecular chirality of their spontaneously self-assembled nanoaggregates. We demonstrate through circular dichroism measurements that we can modulate the chirality by incorporating alkyl spacers of various lengths in between the peptides and thienylene-phenylene π-system chromophores: even numbers of alkyl carbons in the spacer units (0, 2) induce M-type helical character whereas odd numbers (1, 3) induce P-type. Corroborating molecular dynamics simulations and explicating machine learning analysis techniques identify hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic packing to be the principal discriminants of the observed chirality switches. Our results present a molecular-level design rule to engineer chirality into optically and electronically active nanoaggregates of these peptidic building blocks by exploiting systematic variations in the alkyl spacer length.

Abstract
Anthra[2,1,9-def:6,5,10-d'e'f']diisoquinoline-1,3,8,10(2H,9H)-tetraone, namely, perylene bisimides (PBIs), belong to n-type organic semiconductors and possess potential applications in optoelectronic devices. The properties/performance of fabricated nanostructures/devices could be greatly influenced by both molecular structures of PBI building blocks and corresponding arrangement in assembled nanostructures. Many efforts have been made to modify the PBI core and then investigate the nanostructures and properties. However, it is still a great challenge to comprehensively understand the influence of molecular structures on the intermolecular interactions, the self-assembled structures, and the resulting performance. In the present contribution, we mainly summarize recent research aspects on supramolecular assembly behaviors of PBI derivatives assisted by various functional groups. First, a short introduction is given about basic molecular structure, properties, and self-assembly of PBI derivatives. Then, we mainly discuss the modulation of self-assembly of PBIs via introducing various functional groups (flexible or nonflexible chains, and biomolecules especially amino-acid-based groups). After that, the assembly of PBI derivatives from out-of-equilibrium states is described. Finally, a perspective is provided on the design of novel PBI derivatives and the fabrication of unique nanostructures with superior properties.

Abstract
Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC), popularly known as the "click reaction", serves as the most potent and highly dependable tool for facile construction of simple to complex architectures at the molecular level. Click-knitted threads of two exclusively different molecular entities have created some really interesting structures for more than 15 years with a broad spectrum of applicability, including in the fascinating fields of synthetic chemistry, medicinal science, biochemistry, pharmacology, material science, and catalysis. The unique properties of the carbohydrate moiety and the advantages of highly chemo- and regioselective click chemistry, such as mild reaction conditions, efficient performance with a wide range of solvents, and compatibility with different functionalities, together produce miraculous neoglycoconjugates and neoglycopolymers with various synthetic, biological, and pharmaceutical applications. In this review we highlight the successful advancement of Cu(I)-catalyzed click chemistry in glycoscience and its applications as well as future scope in different streams of applied sciences.
