Abstract
A guest molecule containing a short alkyl spacer between the tetraphenylethylene group and the methylpyridinium group was designed and synthesized. After complexation with a water-soluble pillar[5]arene, the resulting host-guest complex can further self-assemble into fluorescence-emitting nanoparticles in water. By loading a commercially available dye Rhodamine 6G into the nanoparticles, an efficient artificial light-harvesting system with high donor/acceptor ratios (>400/1) was successfully constructed. The obtained systems show considerable antenna effects with values of more than 10 times. The system also exhibits tunable fluorescence emission behavior and can be used as a fluorescent ink for information encryption.

Abstract
This paper proposes a strategy for fabricating new artificial light-harvesting systems (ALHSs) based on supramolecular multi-component metallogels. Al3+ was introduced into a solution of an acylhydrazone compound (L) in DMSO or DMF to form the L-Al3+ assembly. After adding Al3+ to the L solution, a noticeable blue shift appeared in the fluorescence spectra of L. Moreover, L could form a gel (L-B-gel) with 1,3:2,4-dibenzylidene sorbitol (B) in a DMSO-H2O binary solution. Finally, we obtained a multi-component metallogel (L-Al3+-B-gel) and successfully fabricated two ALHSs (L-Al3+/rhodamine 6G (Rh6G) and L-Al3+/rhodamine B (RhB)). In these systems, the L-Al3+ supramolecular assembly acts as the donor, while Rh6G and RhB act as acceptors. Additionally, we confirmed an energy-transfer process from the L-Al3+ component to Rh6G and RhB separately. The proposed fabrication strategy will facilitate the development of ALHSs.

Non-Covalent Dimer as Donor Chromophore for Constructing Artificial Light-Harvesting System in Water. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27248876.

Abstract
Dynamic emissive materials in aqueous media have received much attention owing to their ease of preparation, tunable luminescence and environmental friendliness. However, hydrophobic fluorophores usually suffer from aggregation-caused quenching in water. In this work, we constructed an artificial light-harvesting system by using a non-covalent aggregation-induced emission dimer as antenna and energy donor. The dimer is quadruple hydrogen bonded from a ureidopyrimidinone derivative (M) containing a tetraphenylethylene group. The dispersed nano-assemblies based on the dimer in aqueous media were fabricated with the help of surfactant. By loading a hydrophobic acceptor molecule DBT into the nano-assemblies, man-made light-harvesting nanoparticles were fabricated, showing considerable energy transfer efficiency and a relatively high antenna effect. Additionally, the fluorescence color of the system can be gradually tuned by varying the content of the acceptors. This study provides a general way for the construction of an aqueous light-harvesting system based on a supramolecular dimer, which is important for potential application in luminescent materials.

Abstract
In the present work, artificial light-harvesting systems with a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) process were successfully obtained in the aqueous solution. We designed and synthesized an amphiphilic pyrene derivative with two 4-vinylpyridium arms (Pmvb), which can interact with cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) to form supramolecular polymer through host-guest interactions in aqueous solution. The formation of supramolecular polymers results in a significant enhancement of fluorescence, which makes Pmvb-CB[8] an ideal energy donor to construct artificial light-harvesting systems in the aqueous solution. Subsequently, two different fluorescence dyes Rhodamine B (RhB) and Sulforhodamine 101 (SR101) were introduced as energy acceptors into the solution of Pmvb-CB[8] respectively, to fabricate two different artificial light-harvesting systems. The obtained artificial light-harvesting systems can achieve an efficient energy transfer process from Pmvb-CB[8] to RhB or SR101 with high energy transfer efficiency.

Abstract
White-light emission in donor-acceptor systems usually requires relatively high acceptor content and/or multiple acceptors to "neutralize" the primary color of donors. Herein, a cyanostilbene-bridged ditopic ureidopyrimidinone donor (CSU) was designed and synthesized, which can self-assemble into dispersed nanoparticles in water. Fascinatingly, efficient white-light emission can be realized by co-assembling 0.1% DBT into the nanoparticles through a light-harvesting strategy. This new system is further demonstrated for use in white-light encryption materials.

Abstract
Light-harvesting, which involves the conversion of sunlight into chemical energy by natural systems such as plants, bacteria, is one of the most universal routine activities in nature. Thus far, various artificial light-harvesting systems (LHSs) have been fabricated toward solar energy utilization through mimicking natural photosynthesis in simplified and altered ways. Macrocycles are supramolecular hosts with unique cavities, in which specific guest molecules can be recognized based on non-covalent interactions. They have been widely employed in constructing LHSs due to their ability to form supramolecular assembly and dynamic molecular activity. In this review, we mainly focus on some representative examples reported by our group and other groups. Specifically, the fabrication of LHSs and their related discussions, such as a high donor/acceptor ratio, driving force for the formation of supramolecular assemblies and energy transfer mechanisms using different water-soluble macrocycles such as cyclodextrins (CD), pillararenes (PA), calixarenes (CA), cucurbiturils (CB), and other macrocycles will be included. In addition, how the resulting supramolecular self-assembled LHSs could be potentially utilized for photocatalysis, sensing, and imaging is also explained in detail. Challenges and developing trends for photochemical solar energy conversion will also be presented.

Abstract
Covalently bridged pillararene-based oligomers (CBPOs) are formed by covalent bonding of pillararene monomers, and they play a critical role in expanding the multi-disciplinary application of pillararenes due to their excellent molecular complexing ability, specially designed geometry and multifunctional linking groups. This article provides a comprehensive review of the synthesis and applications of CBPOs. The design and synthetic strategies of a series of CBPOs (dimers, trimers, tetramers and others) are first introduced. Many CBPOs with multi-cavities and unique geometry are very attractive and efficient building blocks for constructing novel smart supramolecular polymers (SPs) with different topological structures through host-guest interactions. We describe the methods of constructing various SPs based on CBPOs in detail. Furthermore, the extensive applications of CBPOs and CBPO-based SPs in recognition and detection of ions and organic small molecules, selective adsorption and separation, artificial light-harvesting systems, catalysis, drug delivery systems, and others are systematically introduced. Finally, the future challenges and perspectives for CBPOs are also highlighted.

Abstract
Herein we present a simple fluorescence quenching method to selectively recognise and determine L-tryptophan (L-Trp) out of other 19 natural amino acids. Methylpillar[5]arene (MeP5), which is employed as a macrocyclic fluorescent probe, exhibits fluorescence activity in the solution of poor solvents because of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect. Fluorescence quenching of MeP5 in the solution of EtOH/CH2Cl2 (98/2, v/v) was observed upon the addition of L-Trp whereas other 19 natural amino acids did not bring about obvious change in fluorescence intensity. 1H NMR titration, fluorescence spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and theoretical analysis revealed that L-Trp can be encapsulated into the cavity of MeP5 to form a stable 1:1 host-guest inclusion complex which accounts for the quenching characteristics. The proposed procedure in this investigation offers an attractive and promising method for the selective detection of L-Trp in a mixture of natural amino acids.

Abstract
The booming of host-guest assembly-based supramolecular chemistry provides abundant ways to construct functional systems and materials. Attracted by the important application prospect of white light emission and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) materials, herein, we report an efficient way for fabricating metal-free white light-emitting AIE materials through the supramolecular assembly of simple organic compounds: methoxyl pillar[5]arene (MP5) and tri-(pyridine-4-ylamido)benzene (TAP). By host-guest assembly, MP5 and TAP formed a supramolecular polymer (MP5-T); meanwhile, the MP5-T xerogel powder emitted white light at CIE coordinates (0.29 and 0.29). The supramolecular assembly and white light-emitting mechanisms were carefully investigated by experiments as well as quantum chemical calculations including density functional theory (DFT), reduced density gradient, electrostatic surface potential, independent gradient model, and frontier molecular orbital (highest-occupied molecular orbital-lowest-unoccupied molecular orbital) analyses. Interestingly, according to the experiments and calculations, the supramolecular assembly is critical in the white light-emitting phenomenon. Moreover, in this work, the quantum chemical calculations could not only support experimental phenomena but also provide deep understanding and visualized presentation of the assembly and emission mechanism. In addition, the obtained MP5-T solid powder could serve as a novel and easy means to make material for white light-emitting devices.

Abstract
L-Methionine (L-Met) is one of the essential amino acids in human health, efficiently detect L-Met is a significant issue. Herein, a concept "dual-site collaborative recognition" had been successfully introduced into the design and achieved high selective and sensitive recognition of L-Met. In order to realize the "dual-site collaborative recognition", we rationally designed and synthesized an ester functionalized pillar[5]arene-based fluorescent sensor (SP5). And it shows blue Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorescence. In the SP5, the pillar[5]arene group act as C-H···π interactions site, and ester group serve as multi hydrogen bonding acceptor. Interestingly, the SP5 exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity (2.84 × 10-8 M) towards L-Met based on the collaboration of electron-rich cavernous pillar[5]arene group and ester group through C-H···π and H-bond interactions, respectively. This "dual-site collaborative recognition" mechanism has been investigated by 1H NMR, ESI-MS and theoretical calculation including frontier orbital (HOMO and LUMO), electrostatic potential (ESP) and the noncovalent interaction (NCI). These theoretical calculations not only support the proposed host-guest recognition mechanism, but also provided visualized information on the "dual-site collaborative recognition" mode. Furthermore, the concept "dual-site collaborative recognition" is an effective strategy for easily detecting biological molecules.

Abstract
With the aid of CTAB amphiphile, water-phase artificial light-harvesting systems were fabricated as nanoparticles by the self-assembly of two low-molecular-weight organic molecules: a UPy-functionalized TPE derivative 1 with both supramolecular polymerization and AIE capabilities as a donor and a fluorescent chromophore NiR as an acceptor. Owing to the flexibility of supramolecular self-assembly, tunable emissions including white-light emission could be easily realized with high energy transfer efficiency and the antenna effect.

Abstract
An azine-containing bispillar[5]arene was designed and synthesized by the reaction of aldehyde functionalized-pillar[5]arene and hydrazine. Then, a novel bispillar[5]arene-based supramolecular pseudopolyrotaxane has been successfully prepared via host-guest interaction. Interestingly, by taking advantage of the host-guest interactions, π-π stacking interactions and hydrogen bonding interactions, the multi-stimuli-responsive gel-sol phase transitions of such a supramolecular pseudopolyrotaxane gel were successfully realized under different stimuli, such as acid, temperature, concentration, and competitive guests. Moreover, this supramolecular system could effectively adsorb dye molecule rhodamine B. It is worth noting that this supramolecular pseudopolyrotaxane gel prepared in cyclohexanol solution (BP5·G·C) could be used as an adsorbent material for adsorbing rhodamine B with adsorption efficiency of 98.4%. Meanwhile, the adsorption efficiency was 97.6% for supramolecular pseudopolyrotaxane gel prepared in DMSO-H2O (v : v, 8 : 2) binary solution (BP5·G·D), also indicating the superior adsorption effect of BP5·G·D toward the dye molecule rhodamine B.

Abstract
Pillar[n]arenes, known as the fifth generation of host macrocycles since 2008, have become a popular topic over the past ten years. Until now, the studies of pillar[n]arenes were mainly focused on pillar[5]arenes owing to their easy synthesis and high yields. In particular, 1,4-dimethoxypillar[5]arene (DMP5), which shows a simple structure, efficient synthesis and high yield, has played important roles in the construction of various advanced supramolecular architectures. However, DMP5 has only displayed host-guest binding properties towards some guests. Therefore, the investigation of the host-guest chemistry of DMP5 should be able to greatly promote the development of pillararene chemistry. Herein, a photosensitive azastilbene derivative was chosen as a neutral guest to study the host-guest binding and stimuli-responsive behavior with DMP5. In addition, the binding behavior of DMP5 towards a series of analogous neutral guest molecules was investigated to study the driving forces of the host-guest interaction between DMP5 and the azastilbene guest. Moreover, the [2]pseudorotaxane based on DMP5 and the azastilbene guest was used to construct a polypseudorotaxane via metal coordination.
