The adoption of a supramolecular approach in catalysis promises to address a number of
unmet challenges, ranging from activity (unlocking of novel reaction pathways) to selectivity …

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 …

Mechanically interlocked molecules, such as rotaxanes and catenanes, are receiving
increased attention as scaffolds for the development of new catalysts, driven by both their …

Catalysis is key to the effective and efficient transformation of readily available building
blocks into high value functional molecules and materials. For many years research in this …

Although chiral mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs) have been synthesised and
studied, enantiopure examples are relatively under-represented in the pantheon of reported …

Mechanically interlocked molecules are perhaps best known as components of molecular
machines, a view further reinforced by the Nobel Prize in 2016 to Stoddart and Sauvage …

This review covers recent advances in the use of the squaramide moiety in chemical
research. We focus on the varied applications of squaramides under the broad headings of …

We report on catalysis by a fuel‐induced transient state of a synthetic molecular machine. A
[2] rotaxane molecular shuttle containing secondary ammonium/amine and thiourea stations …

A growing variety of covalent reactions have been employed to achieve the post-assembly
modification (PAM) of self-assembled metallosupramolecular complexes. Covalent PAM …

From being an aesthetic molecular object to a building block for the construction of
molecular machines, catenanes and related mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs) …
