The research field of supramolecular polymerization has dramatically progressed in the last
three decades, and much deeper insights into its new mechanisms, including kinetic and …

As a novel class of dynamic and non‐covalent polymers, supramolecular polymers not only
display specific structural and physicochemical properties, but also have the ability to …

It has become common to reference “pi-stacking” forces or “pi–pi interactions” when
describing the interactions between neighbouring aromatic rings. Here, we review …

Self-assembly provides an attractive route to functional organic materials, with properties
and hence performance depending sensitively on the organization of the molecular building …

Polymers have shown great promise in the design of high efficient and low cytotoxic gene
vectors. Here we synthesize fluorinated dendrimers for use as gene vectors. Fluorinated …

Dendrimers Designed for Functions: From Physical, Photophysical, and Supramolecular
Properties to Applications in Sensing, Catalysis, Molecular Electronics, Photonics, and …

Intermolecular charge transfer (ICT) effect has been widely studied in both small molecules
and linear polymers. Covalently‐bonded donor‐acceptor pairs with tunable bandgaps and …

We have collated various supramolecular designs that utilize organic donor–acceptor CT
complexation to generate noncovalently co‐assembled structures including fibrillar gels …

With the introduction of π-conjugated systems in electronic devices and the dream to arrive
at molecular electronics based on these systems, the detailed understanding of the …

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