The widespread use of molecular machines in biology has long suggested that great
rewards could come from bridging the gap between synthetic molecular systems and the …

1.1 Background Dendrimers and dendrons are architectural motifs synthesized by either
divergent or convergent iterative methods, and therefore, they provide monodisperse …

Electric fields underlie all reactions and impact reactivity by interacting with the dipoles and
net charges of transition states, products, and reactants to modify the free energy landscape …

The widespread use of controlled molecular‐level motion in key natural processes suggests
that great rewards could come from bridging the gap between the present generation of …

A rigid hydrogen‐bonded organic framework (HOF) was constructed from a C3‐symmetric
hexatopic carboxylic acid with a hydrophilic 18‐crown‐6‐ether (18C6) component. Despite …

Supramolecular chemistry involves the study and synthesis of very large molecules which
are used in complex chemical reactions, and have great potential in areas such as …

Positive or negative allosterisms are ubiquitously seen in nature where the biological events
must be efficiently regulated in response to chemical or physical signals from the outside …

Based on the widely diverse coordination environment of transition metal complexes and
lanthanides, and variation in the identities of coordinating ligands, synthesis of such …

Transition metal complexes that incorporate crown ethers into the supporting ligands have
emerged as a powerful class of catalysts capable of cation-tunable reactivity. Cations held in …

This Review highlights stoichiometric reactions and elementary steps of catalytic reactions
involving cooperative participation of transition-metal hydrides and main group Lewis acids …
