Abstract
Two novel fluorescein as well as benzo-12-crown-4 ether functionalized dipyrromethane receptors (DPM3 and DPM4) have successfully been synthesized. The anion (used as their TBA salts) binding studies of thus prepared DPM3 and DPM4 receptors were evaluated by the UV-visible spectrophotometric titrations. Binding affinities as well as the stoichiometry were determined through the UV-visible titrations data with the involvement of the BindFit (v0.5) package available online at https://supramolecular.org. Moreover, binding events were validated by means of the comparison of the partial 1H-NMR spectrum of the simple host molecule with that of the host-guest complex, and the 1 : 1 stoichiometry were further confirmed by the Job's method of continuous variation. From the results, we observed the binding constant (Ka) values of DPM3/DPM4 with various tested anions in the range of 516.07 M-1 to 63789.81 M-1, depending upon the nature/shape/size of the anions. Moreover, the anion-π interactions were confirmed by the partial 1H-NMR spectral data, and further supported by the literature reported systems. The authors hope that such types of valued receptors will be benefitted in future for the recognizing/binding of a variety of biologically important anions.

Abstract
Repeating l- and d-chiral configurations determine polylactide (PLA) stereochemistry, which affects its thermal and physicochemical properties, including degradation profiles. Clinically, degradation of implanted PLA biomaterials promotes prolonged inflammation and excessive fibrosis, but the role of PLA stereochemistry is unclear. Additionally, although PLA of varied stereochemistries causes differential immune responses in vivo, this observation has yet to be effectively modeled in vitro. A bioenergetic model was applied to study immune cellular responses to PLA containing >99% l-lactide (PLLA), >99% d-lactide (PDLA), and a 50/50 melt-blend of PLLA and PDLA (stereocomplex PLA). Stereocomplex PLA breakdown products increased IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 protein levels but not MCP-1. Expression of these proinflammatory cytokines is mechanistically driven by increases in glycolysis in primary macrophages. In contrast, PLLA and PDLA degradation products selectively increase MCP-1 protein expression. Although both oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis are increased with PDLA, only oxidative phosphorylation is increased with PLLA. For each biomaterial, glycolytic inhibition reduces proinflammatory cytokines and markedly increases anti-inflammatory (IL-10) protein levels; differential metabolic changes in fibroblasts were observed. These findings provide mechanistic explanations for the diverse immune responses to PLA of different stereochemistries and underscore the pivotal role of immunometabolism in the biocompatibility of biomaterials applied in medicine.

Abstract
We report the synthesis of a new conjugated polymer bearing crown ether moieties, poly[(N(1-aza-[18]crown-6)carbamido)thiophene-2,5-diyl-alt-1,4-phenylene] (BG2). In water, BG2 forms a dispersion with a slightly cloudy appearance. We have studied the effect of adding surfactants, with different polar head groups, on these polymer-polymer aggregates. Special attention is given to the system with the anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The combination of photophysical techniques with electrical conductivity, NMR (1H, 13C, and 27Na), DFT calculations, molecular dynamics simulations, and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) provides a detailed picture on the behavior of the SDS/BG2 system in aqueous solution and in thin films. NMR, electric conductivity, and DFT results suggest that hydrophilic interactions occur between the polar headgroup of the surfactant (OSO3- Na+) and the aza-[18]-crown-6 moiety. DFT calculations confirmed the capability of BG2 to form stable complexes with the Na+ cations, where the cation can be either inside the azacrown cavity or sandwiched between the cavity and the polymer chain, which seem to determine the position of the surfactant hydrocarbon chain and, therefore, be responsible for the disruption of the BG2 aggregates and subsequent increase in the photoluminescence quantum yields. SANS measurements, made with hydrogenated and deuterated SDS in D2O, clearly show how micron-sized aggregates of BG2 are broken down by SDS and then how BG2 becomes preferentially incorporated within joint colloidal particles of BG2 and SDS with increasing [SDS]/[BG2] molar ratio.

Abstract
Cyclic organic compounds with several ether linkages in their structure are of much concern in our daily life applications. Crown ethers (CEs) are generally heterocyclic and extremely versatile compounds exhibiting higher binding affinity. In recent years, due to their unique structure, crown ethers are widely used in drug delivery, solvent extraction, cosmetics manufacturing, material studies, catalysis, separation, and organic synthesis. Beyond their conventional place in chemistry, this review article summarizes the synthesis, biological, and potential pharmacological activities of CEs. We have emphasized the prospects of CEs as anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antifungal agents and have explored their amyloid genesis inhibitory activity, electrochemical, and potential metric sensing properties. The central feature of these compounds is their ability to form selective and stable complexes with various organic and inorganic cations. Therefore, CEs can be used in gas chromatography as the stationary phase and are also valuable for cation chromatographic to determine and separate alkali and alkaline-earth cations.

Abstract
Crown ethers are macrocyclic hosts that can complex a wide range of inorganic and organic cations as well as neutral guest species. Their widespread utilization in several areas of fundamental and applied chemistry strongly relies on strategies for their functionalisation, in order to obtain compounds that could carry out multiple functions and could be incorporated in sophisticated systems. Although functionalised crown ethers are normally synthesised by templated macrocyclisation using appropriately substituted starting materials, the direct addition of functional groups onto a pre-formed macrocyclic framework is a valuable yet underexplored alternative. Here we review the methodologies for the direct functionalisation of aliphatic and aromatic crown ethers sporadically reported in the literature over a period of four decades. The general approach for the introduction of moieties on aliphatic crown ethers involves a radical mediated cross dehydrogenative coupling initiated either by photochemical or thermal/chemical activation, while aromatic crown ethers are commonly derivatised via electrophilic aromatic substitution. Direct functionalization routes can reduce synthetic effort, allow the later modification of crown ether-based architectures, and disclose new ways to exploit these versatile macrocycles in contemporary supramolecular science and technology.

Abstract
It is a great challenge to precisely control the molecules that self-assemble into diverse shapes with diverse properties. Herein, the self-assembled behaviors between calixpyridinium and two pyrenesulfonate guests, 1,3,6,8-pyrenetetrasulfonic acid tetrasodium salt (PyTS) and sodium 1-pyrenesulfonate (PS), were studied. The morphology and property of the two assemblies were quite different. PS guests self-assembled into spherical aggregates upon complexation with calixpyridinium, while the self-assembled rodlike aggregates were formed via the binding between calixpyridinium and PyTS guests. The calixpyridinium-PS supramolecular aggregates could not emit fluorescence in the solid state, while a strong green fluorescence was emitted by the calixpyridinium-PyTS supramolecular aggregates in the solid state. More interestingly and importantly, the solid calixpyridinium-PyTS supramolecular aggregates exhibited an adsorbent ability to iodine in both the aqueous solution and the vapor phase, while the solid calixpyridinium-PS supramolecular aggregates could not capture iodine. The diverse iodine capture capability of the two supramolecular aggregates was determined by the self-assembled structure at the molecular level.

Abstract
The design and development of phosphorus based macrocycles containing one or more other heteroatoms is of crucial importance for the enhancement of modern synthetic chemistry. In recent years focus on phosphorus based macromolecules has led to intriguing and innovative structures with a variety of applications, including photophysical and host-guest properties, and in organic synthesis. This article summarizes the recent advancements in the synthesis of macrocycles that consist of organophosphorus-chalcogen (P-E, P[double bond, length as m-dash]E; E = O, S, Se) and organophosphorus-pincer based macrocyclic ligands and their transition metal complexes with emphasis given to synthetic methodologies. The reactions involve the modification of simple macrocycles with phosphorus sources or phosphorus-based chalcogenating reagents. Transition metal complexes of phosphine-based macrocyclic pincer ligands and their reactivity are also included.
