Abstract
Cyclosporine A (CsA), a naturally derived biomaterial and physiologically active substance, is commonly used as an immunosuppressant. In this study, CsA was revealed to function as a chiral inducer of cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs) with a high helical twisting power. CsA induced helical structures in 4-cyano-4'-pentylbiphenyl, a synthetic liquid crystal (LC) used for general purposes. Electrochemical polymerization in CLC with CsA was also performed. The polymer prepared in CLC showed electro-optical activity via chiral induction by CsA. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurements indicated that the polymer film prepared in the CLC formed in the manner of LC molecular arrangement through molecular form imprinting from the LC order, although the polymer exhibited no liquid crystallinity. The polymer showed structural color and laser light oscillation diffraction derived from its periodic structure. The anisotropy of the circularly polarized electron spin resonance signals for the resulting polymer with respect to the magnetic field was observed.

Abstract
We report the design, synthesis, and study of light-induced shape-changing azomacrocycles. These systems have been incorporated with azobenzene photoswitches using alkoxy tethers and triazole units to afford flexibility and binding. We envision that such azomacrocycles are capable of reversibly binding with the guest molecule. Remarkably, we have demonstrated fully light-controlled fluorescence quenching and enhancement in the monomeric emission of pyrene (guest). Such modulations have been achieved by the photoisomerization of the azomacrocycle and, in turn, host-guest interactions. Also, the azomacrocycles tend to aggregate and can also be controlled by light or heat. We uncovered such phenomena using spectroscopic, microscopic, and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) studies and computations.

Abstract
Molecular photoactuators can control shape and chemical or physical properties of the responsive system they are embedded in. These effects are usually mediated by supramolecular interactions and can be amplified to perform work at the micro- and macroscopic scale, for instance, in materials and biomimetic systems. While many studies focus on the observable outcome of these events, photoresponsive structures can also translate their conformational change to molecular components and perform work against random Brownian motion. Stereochemical cascades can amplify light-generated motion to a distant moiety of the same molecule or molecular assembly, via conformationally restricted stereogenic elements. Being able to control the conformation or motion of molecular systems remotely provides prospects for the design of the smallest machines imaginable. This Focus Review emphasizes the emergence of directed, coupled motion of remote functionalities triggered by light-powered switches and motors as a tool to control molecular topology and function.

Abstract
Mesogenic soft materials, having single or multiple mesogen moieties per molecule, commonly exhibit typical self-organization characteristics, which promotes the formation of elegant helical superstructures or supramolecular assemblies in chiral environments. Such helical superstructures play key roles in the propagation of circularly polarized light and display optical properties with prominent handedness, that is, chiro-optical properties. The leveraging of light to program the chiro-optical properties of such mesogenic helical soft materials by homogeneously dispersing photosensitive chiral material into an achiral soft system or covalently connecting photochromic moieties to the molecules has attracted considerable attention in terms of materials, properties, and potential applications and has been a thriving topic in both fundamental science and application engineering. State-of-the-art technologies are described in terms of the material design, synthesis, properties, and modulation of photoprogrammable chiro-optical mesogenic soft helical architectures. Additionally, the scientific issues and technical problems that hinder further development of these materials for use in various fields are outlined and discussed. Such photoprogrammable mesogenic soft helical materials are competitive candidates for use in stimulus-controllable chiro-optical devices with high optical efficiency, stable optical properties, and easy miniaturization, facilitating the future integration and systemization of chiro-optical chips in photonics, photochemistry, biomedical engineering, chemical engineering, and beyond.

Abstract
The formation and characterization of K+ and Cs+ complexes originating from the cooperativity of three non-covalent interactions is explored. The tridimensional preorganization of the naphthothiophene platform displays a favorable well-defined bay region combining a π fragment and a carbonyl moiety flanking a central sulfur atom. A joint theoretical and experimental infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) study allowed deciphering the key contribution of the orthogonal phenyl fragment to the elaboration of alkali metal complexes. In combination with S and CO interactions, the π-cation interaction significantly enhances the binding energies of naphthothiophene derivatives.

Abstract
Convenient access to new aryl(dihydro)naphthothiophenes is described using a common β-chloroacrolein derivative. Our strategy is based on the construction of a condensed thiophene ring prior to a Suzuki-Miyaura coupling and allowed installing various substituents at the molecular platform. The overall shapes of these architectures were confirmed by X-ray analyses and were in good agreement with theoretical calculations. It has been established that the relative orientation between all fragments that composed molecules within this series is strongly related to both steric and electronic factors. Contribution of these key parameters revealed to be crucial to rationalize attempts to prepare fluorenone and fluorene derivatives from aryl(dihydro)naphthothiophene platforms.

Abstract
Reduced graphene oxide-azobenzene (RGO-AZO) hybrids were prepared via covalent functionalization for long-term solar thermal storage. Thermal barrier (ΔEa) of cis to tran reversion and thermal storage (ΔH) were improved by molecular hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) through ortho- or para-substitution of AZO. Intramolecular H-bonds thermally stabilized cis-ortho-AZO on RGO with a long-term half-life of 5400 h (ΔEa = 1.2 eV), which was much longer than that of RGO-para-AZO (116 h). RGO-para-AZO with one intermolecular H-bond showed a high density of thermal storage up to 269.8 kJ kg(-1) compared with RGO-ortho-AZO (149.6 kJ kg(-1)) with multiple intra- and intermolecular H-bonds of AZO according to relaxed stable structures. Thermal storage in experiment was the same order magnitude to theoretical data based on ΔH calculated by density functional theory and packing density. Photoactive RGO-AZO hybrid can be developed for high-performance solar thermal storage by optimizing molecular H-bonds.

Abstract
We have investigated the chiroptical, linear, and second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of seven binaphthol derivatives and elucidated structure-property relationships from the micromechanism for the first time. The excitation energies, oscillator strengths, and rotational strengths of the 150 lowest energy electron excitations for the most stable conformers have been calculated at TDB3LYP/cc-pVDZ level of theory. The experimental UV-vis absorption energies were reproduced well by our calculations. The simulated circular dichroism (CD) spectra and calculated optical rotation (OR) values are in reasonable agreement with experimental ones. These results demonstrate that TDDFT calculations can not only describe the electron transition property but also can be used to assign the absolute configurations (ACs) of binaphthol derivatives with high confidence. Whereas OR values are more sensitive to the molecular structures than CD spectra. The electron transition property and chiroptical origin have been assigned and analyzed. These derivatives possess remarkably large molecular first hyperpolarizabilities, especially compound 7 which has a value of 241.65 × 10(-30) esu. This value is about 60 times as large as that of highly π-delocalized phenyliminomethyl ferrocene complex. Moreover, compound 6 exhibits pronounced different second-order NLO response values from neutral state to the two cationic states (6(2+) and 6(4+)), which indicates that this compound could act as a potential NLO switch material. The cooperativity of intramolecular charge transfer of the studied compounds was also discussed.
