Covalent polymers connected by non-covalent interactions constitute a fascinating set of
materials known as supramolecular polymer networks (SPNs). A key feature of SPNs is that …

The study of the complexation of anions, from its beginnings in the late 1960s and 1970s,(1-
3) has moved on from being an area solely of academic interest to a fundamental pillar of …

Conspectus Soft materials have received considerable attention from supramolecular
chemists and material scientists alike. This interest reflects the advantages provided by their …

Reported here is a two-layer gel construct that permits the on-site detection of the chloride
anion by means of a hand-held UV-vis lamp and a smart phone “app”. To prepare this …

A two-dimensional (2D) supramolecular organic framework (SOF) has been constructed
through the co-assembly of a triphenylamine-based building block and cucurbit [8] uril (CB …

Abstract meso-(p-acetamidophenyl)-calix [4] pyrrole 3 was found to exhibit remarkable
cytotoxicity towards A549 cancer cells. A comparative study including the isomer of 3 meso …

The ion-pair recognition ability of calix [4] pyrrole was utilized to form a multicomponent
monomeric assembly and a linear supramolecular polymer via concurrent anion and bis …

A triazole bridged bis-calix [4] pyrrole was successfully synthesized and further used for the
first time to construct AABB type linear thermoresponsive supramolecular polymers by …

The supramolecular approach plays a pivotal role in the construction of smart and functional
materials due to the reversible nature of noncovalent interactions. In the present work, two …

Supramolecular polymerization of calix [4] pyrroles bearing tethered carboxylate functional
groups was reported in the form of their tetrabutylammonium salts. At high concentrations …
