Abstract
A macrocyclic compound, hemicucurbit[6]uril (HemiQ[6]), is employed as the carbon source to produce a novel sort of carbon quantum dots (CQDs) with blue fluorescence in aqueous solution. The CQDs are fully identified by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), zeta potential, ultraviolet/visible (UV-vis) and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). The nanomaterial is developed for the analysis of Pb2+ in the light of the Resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) changes with the increasing Pb2+ concentration. The proposed probe emerges a high selectivity to Pb2+ and excellent sensitivity in the linear concentration range of 0-6 μM with a detection limit low to 0.42 μM, which is superior to the previous values of Pb2+ sensors, as well as the good anti-interference ability is confirmed by the specifical response to Pb2+ in the presence of other metal cations. Therefore, the proposed analysis of Pb2+ is explored for the application in real samples of tap water and lake water, in satisfied results of acceptable recoveries.

Abstract
A new mononuclear complex, penta-aqua-(cucurbit[6]uril-κ2 O,O')(nitrato-κ2 O,O')praseodymium(III) dinitrate 9.56-hydrate, [Pr(NO3)(CB6)(H2O)5](NO3)2·9.56H2O (1), was obtained as outcome of the hydro-thermal reaction between the macrocyclic ligand cucurbit[6]uril (CB6, C36H36N24O12) with a tenfold excess of Pr(NO3)3·6H2O. Complex 1 crystallizes in the P21/n space group with two crystallographically independent but chemically identical [Pr(CB6)(NO3)(H2O)5]2+ complex cations, four nitrate counter-anions and 19.12 inter-stitial water mol-ecules per asymmetric unit. The nona-coordinated PrIII in 1 are located in the PrO9 coordination environment formed by two carbonyl O atoms from bidentate cucurbit[6]uril units, two oxygen atoms from the bidentate nitrate anion and five water mol-ecules. Considering the differences in Pr-O bond distances and O-Pr-O angles in the coordination spheres, the coordination polyhedrons of the two PrIII atoms can be described as distorted spherical capped square anti-prismatic and muffin polyhedral.

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
Adamantane, a staple in medicinal chemistry, recently became a cornerstone of a supramolecular host-guest drug delivery system, ADA/CB[n]. Owing to a good fit between the adamantane cage and the host cavity of the cucurbit[n]uril macrocycle, formed strong inclusion complexes find applications in drug delivery and controlled drug release. Note that the cucurbit[n]uril host is not solely a delivery vehicle of the ADA/CB[n] system but rather influences the bioactivity and bioavailability of drug molecules and can tune drug properties. Namely, as host-guest interactions are capable of changing the intrinsic properties of the guest molecule, inclusion complexes can become more soluble, bioavailable and more resistant to metabolic conditions compared to individual non-complexed molecules. Such synergistic effects have implications for practical bioapplicability of this complex system and provide a new viewpoint to therapy, beyond the traditional single drug molecule approach. By achieving a balance between guest encapsulation and release, the ADA/CB[n] system has also found use beyond just drug delivery, in fields like bioanalytics, sensing assays, bioimaging, etc. Thus, chemosensing in physiological conditions, indicator displacement assays, in vivo diagnostics and hybrid nanostructures are just some recent examples of the ADA/CB[n] applicability, be it for displacements purposes or as cargo vehicles.

Abstract
In this paper, fluorescent nitrogen doped carbon quantum dots (CQDs) were synthesized by a hydrothermal method using cucurbit[6]uril (Q[6]) and mandelic acid (MA). Compared with other carbon quantum dots, cucurbit[6]uril has the advantage that its original rigid macrocyclic skeleton was completely retained during the synthesis process. In addition, the performance of the Q[6]-CQDs were characterized by fluorescence and NMR spectroscopies, then the crystal structure of Q[6]-MA-[CdCl4]2- was determined by the single crystal X-ray crystallography. The Q[6]-CQDs showed good water solubility and stable optical property. Subsequently, using the obtained Q[6]-CQDs, a universal fluorescent probe for detecting and recognizing Fe3+, Ba2+, Al3+, I- and ClO- has been developed based on macrocyclic chemistry. Under ideal conditions, the detection limits were calculated to be 3.89 × 10-6 M, 2.58 × 10-5 M, 1.42 × 10-5 M, 6.84 × 10-6 M and 1.50 × 10-5 M.

Abstract
The biomarker 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT) is widely recognized as an indicator of renal oxidative stress injury, making its detection crucial for the early identification of renal insufficiency. This study presents the design and synthesis of a tetraphenylstyrene imidazole derivative (TIPE-MI), which is utilized to create a supramolecular probe in conjunction with cucurbit[8]uril (Q[8]) through host-guest interactions. The resulting supramolecular self-assembly exhibits excellent optical properties and has been employed for the specific detection of 3-NT through fluorescence quenching. The introduction of 3-NT resulted in a decreased fluorescence intensity of the yellow fluorescent probe, which gradually transitioned from bright yellow to light yellow and then became colorless as the 3-NT concentration was increased. A portable detection platform was devised to augment the efficiency of detection. In order to facilitate biological applications, we have substantiated the probe's exceptional precision in detecting 3-NT in biological samples, encompassing human serum and plasma. The probe also exhibited negligible cytotoxicity. The accumulation of the probe in renal cells elicited a fluorescence signal, thereby indicating the prospective viability of this system for visual detection with renal cytocompatibility.

Abstract
Resazurin (Alamar Blue, RZ) is a widely utilized fluorescent probe for biological sensing, whose fluorescent intensity can be modulated by changing its redox states; thereby, electrochemical reactivity of RZ is of significance when designing a sensing assay. Herein, we report novel two-way electrochemical reactivity modulation of RZ using host-guest complexation with rigid molecular containers cucurbit[n]uril (CBn, n = 7, 8). The complexation between CBn and RZ is confirmed by 1H NMR measurements and supported by computational simulation, and the binding constants are determined via UV-vis titration. Notably, the voltametric data highlights that the redox reactivity of RZ can be activated or deactivated upon encapsulation by CB8 or CB7, respectively. This two-way reactivity modulation is hypothesized to be mediated by the difference in cavity volume that favors or hinders the approach of water molecules to the encapsulated reaction center during the reduction process. Despite the similar cavity size to CB, molecular containers such as cyclodextrins (CDs) exhibit considerably weaker modulation effects. Our approach can potentially be applied to other redox processes that involve proton transfer, and open new possibilities in supramolecular electrochemistry.

Abstract
Macrocyclic molecules have been used in various fields owing to their guest binding properties. Macrocycle-based host-guest chemistry in solution can allow for precise control of complex formation. Although solution-phase host-guest complexes are easily prepared, their limited stability and processability prevent widespread application. Extending host-guest chemistry from solution to the solid state results in complexes that are generally more robust, enabling easier processing and broadened applications. Macrocyclic compounds in the solid state can encapsulate guests with larger affinities than their soluble counterparts. This is crucial for use in applications such as separation science and devices. In this Review, we summarize recent progress in macrocycle-based solid-state host-guest chemistry and discuss the basic physical chemistry of these complexes. Representative macrocycles and their solid-state complexes are explored, as well as potential applications. Finally, perspectives and challenges are discussed.

Abstract
In this paper, tetramethyl cucurbit[6]uril (TMeQ[6]) and 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethene (G) were used to construct a supramolecular fluorescent probe G@TMeQ[6]. The host-guest interaction between TMeQ[6] and G was investigated using 1H NMR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction and various experimental techniques. The results show that TMeQ[6] and G form an inclusion complex with a host-guest ratio of 1:1 and the equilibrium association constant (Ka) was 2.494 × 104 M-1. The G@TMeQ[6] fluorescent probe can sensitively recognize Hg2+ ions by fluorescence enhancement. The linear range is 0.33 × 10-5-1.65 × 10-5 mol·L-1, R2 = 0.9926, and the limit of detection is 4.12 × 10-8 mol·L-1. The fluorescent probe can be used to detect the concentration of Hg2+ ions in aqueous solution, and provides a theoretical basis for the development of new fluorescent probes for detecting heavy metal ions.

Abstract
Cucurbit[n]uril supramolecular chemistry has developed rapidly since 2001 when different cucurbit[n]uril homologues (Q[n]) were successfully separated in pure form. The combination of Q[n] cavity size and various types of external stimuli has given birth to numerous types of Q[n]-based mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs), including (pseudo)rotaxanes, catenanes, dendrimers and poly(pseudo)rotaxanes. In this review article, the important advances in the field of Q[n]-based MIMs over the past two decades are highlighted. This review also describes examples of heterowheel (pseudo)rotaxanes and poly(pseudo)rotaxanes involving Q[n]s, and reflects on the opportunities and challenges of constructing Q[n]-based stimuli-responsive MIMs.

Abstract
The construction of metal-organic cages (MOCs) with specific structures and fluorescence sensing properties is of much importance and challenging. Herein, a novel phenanthroline-based metal-organic cage, [Cd3L3·6MeOH·6H2O] (1), was synthesized by metal-directed assembly of the ligand 3,3'-[(1E,1'E)-(1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diyl)bis(ethene-2,1-diyl)]dibenzoic acid (H2L) and CdI2 using a solvothermal method. According to single-crystal X-ray analysis, cage 1 exhibits a rare trefoil-shaped structure. Meanwhile, the discrete MOCs are further stacked into a 3D porous supramolecular structure through abundant intermolecular C-H···O interactions. Additionally, through exploration of fluorescence sensing on cations, anions, and antibiotics in aqueous solution, the experimental results indicate that cage 1 has excellent fluorescence sensing abilities for Fe3+, Cr2O72-, and nitrofuran and nitroimidazole antibiotics. The sensing ability of 1 remains unaltered for five cycles toward all analytes. The above results suggested that cage 1 can be considered a potential multiple sensor for the detection of Fe3+, Cr2O72-, and some antibiotics.

Abstract
The host-guest interaction between hexamethyl cucurbit[5]uril (HmeQ[5]) and 1,4-diaminobenzene (DB) was investigated, and a new low-molecular-weight supramolecular gel was prepared by a simple heating/mixing cooling method. The structure and properties of the supramolecular gel were characterized. Results revealed that DB molecules did not enter the cavity of HmeQ[5] and that hydrogen bonding between the carbonyl group at the HmeQ[5] port and the DB amino groups, together with dipole-dipole interactions and outer wall interactions, were the main driving forces for the formation of the supramolecular gel. The HmeQ[5]/DB gel system exhibits temperature sensitivity. The phosphor 6-bromo-2-naphthol (BrNp) was embedded in the gel to give the gel fluorescent phosphorescence double emission. The double emission ability at room temperature can be attributed to the ordered microstructure of the supramolecular gel, which effectively avoids the nonradiative transition of BrNp. Meanwhile, HmeQ[5]/DB-BrNp has good biocompatibility and low biotoxicity, which is compatible with HeLa cells to achieve cytoplasmic staining of HeLa in the red channel. The supramolecular gels constructed by this supramolecular assembly strategy not only have good temperature sensitivity but also extend the application of Q[n]s in biomedical fields.

Abstract
An accurate diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) at the early stage is critical to not only allow preventative treatments in time but also forecast probable medication toxicity for preventing AKI from starting and progressing to severe kidney damage and death. Therefore, supramolecular fluorescent biomaterials based on Q [8] and PEG-APTS have been prepared herein. This study has found that the unique properties of outer surface methine and the positive density of Q [8] can form a stable assembly with PEG-APTS, and has provided the possibility for the faster crossing of the glomerular filtration barrier to enter into the resident cells of the kidney. In addition to the excellent fluorescence properties, the as-synthesized biomaterial Q [8]@PEG-APTS has possessed significantly low biological toxicity. Most importantly, the accumulation of Q [8]@PEG-APTS in large amounts in cytoplasm and nucleus of HK2 and HMCs cells, respectively, within 24 h enabled distinguishing kidney cells when diagnosing and providing some foundation for early AKI.

Abstract
Cucurbit[n]urils (Q[n]s or CB[n]s), as a classical of artificial organic macrocyclic hosts, were found to have excellent advantages in the fabricating of tunable and smart organic luminescent materials in aqueous media and the solid state with high emitting efficiency under the rigid pumpkin-shaped structure-derived macrocyclic-confinement effect in recent years. This review aims to give a systematically up-to-date overview of the Q[n]-based supramolecular organic luminescent emissions from the confined spaces triggered host-guest complexes, including the assembly fashions and the mechanisms of the macrocycle-based luminescent complexes, as well as their applications. Finally, challenges and outlook are provided. Since this class of Q[n]-based supramolecular organic luminescent emissions, which have essentially derived from the cavity-dependent confinement effect and the resulting assembly fashions, emerged only a few years ago, we hope this review will provide valuable information for the further development of macrocycle-based light-emitting materials and other related research fields.
