Fullerene chemistry has come a long way since 1990, when the first bulk production of C60
was reported. In the past decade, progress in supramolecular chemistry has opened some …

Compartmentalization of the aqueous space within a cell is necessary for life. In similar
fashion to the nanometer-scale compartments in living systems, synthetic water-soluble …

Since the trailblazing discoveries of Lehn, Cram and Pedersen, supramolecular chemistry
has established itself as a cornerstone of organic chemistry. Supramolecular hosts offer …

The design principles of metallo-organic assembly reactions have facilitated access to
hundreds of coordination cages of varying size and shape. Many of these assemblies …

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 regioselective functionalization of C60 remains challenging, while the enantioselective
functionalization of C60 is difficult to explore due to the need for complex chiral tethers or …

Desymmetrization of a symmetric skeleton enables late-stage functionalization of molecules.
However, reagent-controlled desymmetrization by site-selective reactions of symmetric …

The addition of two unsymmetric malonate esters to the Buckminster fullerene C60 can lead
to 22 spectroscopically distinguishable isomeric products and therefore represents a …

The development of supramolecular hosts with effective host–guest properties is crucial for
their applications. Herein, we report the preparation of a porphyrin-based metallacage …

The field of metallosupramolecular chemistry has advanced rapidly in recent years. Much
work in this area has focused on the formation of hollow self-assembled metal-organic …
