Allosteric regulation, in many cases, involves switching the activities of natural enzymes,
which further affects the enzymatic network and cell signaling in the living systems. The …

This mini-review summarizes the seminal exploration of aqueous supramolecular chemistry
of crown ether macrocycles. In history, most research of crown ethers were focusing on their …

Click chemistry is a powerful molecular assembly strategy for rapid functional discovery. The
development of click reactions with new connecting linkage is of great importance for …

Control of self-assembly is significant to the preparation of supramolecular materials, but the
control of hydration, responsiveness, dimension, catalysis of macrocyclic amphiphiles in an …

A pair of selenanthrene-bridged molecular cages have been constructed through a one-step
cyclization reaction of a tetrakis (iodo) crown ether with selenium powder. The tubular belt …

A rosin derivative, dehydroabietic alcohol (DHAA), was synthetized and employed to graft
onto polyacrylic acid (PAA) via the Steglich esterification reaction, forming a block copolymer …

Heteroditopic calix [6] arenes are widely employed macrocycles for the synthesis of pseudo‐
oriented interlocked systems and stimuli‐induced molecular machines, among others …

Constitutionally adaptive chemistry of selenium-containing crown ethers (CEs) offers a new
platform for controlling/switching the hydration of bolaamphiphile skeletons in water in an …

The oxidative crosslinking of thiols via a disulfide (SS) bond is a fundamental chemical
reaction in the industrial production of protein-and peptide-based formulations. In this study …

Supramolecular self-assembly by hybrid macrocycles containing both cucurbit [m] uril (CB
[m]) and pillar [n] arene was discussed and summarized in this review. Due to different …
