This tutorial review summarises different aspects of cooperativity in supramolecular
complexes. We propose a systematic categorisation of cooperativity into cooperative …

The field of mechanically interlocked molecules that employ a handcuff component are
reviewed. The variety of rotaxane and catenane structures that use the handcuff motif to …

Multicavity macrocyclic hosts are host molecules comprising more than one macrocyclic
guest binding components connected through multipoint linkages. Macrocycles, such as …

We report a strategy for regulating the rate of internally bound anion exchange within an
Fe4L6 metal–organic tetrahedron through external coordination of tripodal tris …

The ability of an E-configured azobenzene guest to undergo photoisomerisation is
controlled by the presence of a complementary host. Addition of base/acid allowed for a …

Interfaces provide the structural basis for function as, for example, encountered in nature in
the membrane-embedded photosystem or in technology in solar cells. Synthetic functional …

The synthesis of discrete multirotaxanes with well‐defined structures remains a great
challenge. Herein, we present the successful construction of diverse discrete multirotaxanes …

Donor–acceptor materials with small HOMO–LUMO gaps are important in molecular
electronics, but are often difficult to synthesise. A simple and efficient way to position …

During the past few decades, the construction of various kinds of platinum‐acetylide
complexes has attracted considerable attention, because of their wide applications in …

Kinetic effective molarities (EM) that quantify the increase in reaction rate for intramolecular
formation of covalent bonds compared with the corresponding intermolecular process often …
