In this review, we describe the recent advances in supramolecular helical assemblies
formed from chiral and achiral small molecules, oligomers (foldamers), and helical and …

Cyclic polymers with a ring-like topology and no chain ends are a unique class of
macromolecules. In the past several decades, significant advances have been made to …

Water is a unique solvent that is ubiquitous in biology and present in a variety of solutions,
mixtures, and materials settings. It therefore forms the basis for all molecular dynamics …

A variety of single-and multicyclic polymers having programmed chemical structures with
guaranteed purity have now become obtainable owing to a number of synthetic …

A versatile strategy is reported for the multigram synthesis of discrete oligomers from
commercially available monomer families, eg, acrylates, styrenics, and siloxanes. Central to …

Natural biopolymers, such as DNA and proteins, have uniform microstructures with defined
molecular weight, precise monomer sequence, and stereoregularity along the polymer main …

Polymer topologies exert a significant effect on its properties, and polymer nanostructures
with advanced architectures, such as cyclic polymers, star‐shaped polymers, and …

The synthesis of functional polymers encoded with biomolecules has been an extensive
area of research for decades. As such, a diverse toolbox of polymerization techniques and …

Overcoming entropic constraints to selectively produce high-molecular-weight cyclic poly
(lactide)(c-PLA) is a challenge. In this work, we use an air-stable cationic alkyl indium …

Rational macromolecular design allows us to construct multiresponsive architectural
polymers with a potential toward multipurpose applications. This study aims at synthesis and …
