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 …

Although metallosupramolecular cages are self-assembled from seemingly simple building
blocks, metal ions and organic ligands, architectures of increasingly large size and …

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 …

We report the synthesis and chiroptical properties of novel chiral carbon nanorings Sp‐/Rp‐
[12] PCPP containing a planar chiral [2.2] PCP unit, and demonstrate that Sp‐/Rp‐[12] PCPP …

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 structures of the crosslinks in supramolecular polymer networks play an important role
on their properties and functions. Herein, emissive metallacages are used as crosslinks to …

Molecular recognition lies at the heart of biological functions, which inspires lasting research
in artificial host syntheses to mimic biomolecules that can recognize, process, and transport …

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 …
