Two-dimensional metallacycles and three-dimensional metallacages constructed by
coordination-driven self-assembly have attracted much attention because they exhibit …

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

Designing supramolecular architectures with uncommon geometries embedded with
functional building units is of immense importance in contemporary research. In this report …

The development of supramolecular coordination complexes (SCCs) with a bright aggregate
state or mechanical-stimuli-responsive luminescence is very significant and challenging …

Photochromic compounds of the spiropyran family have two main isomers capable of inter-
switching with UV or visible light. In the current review, we discuss recent advances in the …

Anthracene crude oil is a common source of phenanthrene for its industrial use. The
isolation of phenanthrene from this source is a challenging task due to very similar physical …

Controlling the number of molecular switches and their relative positioning within porous
materials is critical to their functionality and properties. The proximity of many molecular …

Fullerene extracts obtained from fullerene soot lack their real application due to their poor
solubility in common solvents and difficulty in purification. Encapsulation of these extracts in …

Inspired by the lock and key principle, the development of supramolecular macrocyclic
chemistry has promoted the prosperous growth of host-guest chemistry. The updated …

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and MOF-based composites as luminescent sensors with
excellent economic practicability and handy operability have attracted much attention …
