Entangling strands in a well-ordered manner can produce useful effects, from shoelaces and
fishing nets to brown paper packages tied up with strings. At the nanoscale, non-crystalline …

" The story is told by THE inventor-pioneer-master in the field and is accompanied by
amazing illustrations...[it] will become an absolute reference and a best seller in chemistry!" …

This comprehensive review surveys developments over the past decade in the field of
naphthalene diimides (NDIs). It explores their application toward: supramolecular chemistry; …

Since the emergence of the concept of chemical topology, interlocked molecular assemblies
have graduated from academic curiosities and poorly defined species to become synthetic …

Half a century after Schill and Lüttringhaus carried out the first directed synthesis of a [2]
catenane, a plethora of strategies now exist for the construction of molecular Hopf links …

Although chiral mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs) have been synthesised and
studied, enantiopure examples are relatively under-represented in the pantheon of reported …

The first synthetic molecular trefoil knot was prepared in the late 1980s. However, it is only in
the last few years that more complex small‐molecule knot topologies have been realized …

Chemistry, pure and applied, is a science and an industry. By its power over the expressions
of matter, it also displays the creativity of art. It has expanded from molecular to …

Sulfur has been important in dynamic covalent chemistry (DCC) since the beginning of the
field. Mainly as part of disulfides and thioesters, dynamic sulfur‐based bonds (DSBs) have a …

Knots may ultimately prove just as versatile and useful at the nanoscale as at the
macroscale. However, the lack of synthetic routes to all but the simplest molecular knots …
