Molecular separations that enable selective transport of target molecules from gas and liquid
molecular mixtures, such as CO2 capture, olefin/paraffin separations, and organic solvent …

Entangling strands in a well-ordered manner can produce useful effects, from shoelaces and
fishing nets to brown paper packages tied up with strings. At the nanoscale, non-crystalline …

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a class of crystalline porous organic polymers
assembled by connecting organic building units via covalent bonds. They are characterized …

BACKGROUND Just over a century ago, Gilbert N. Lewis published his seminal work “The
Atom and the Molecule” on what later became known as the covalent bond. Since then …

Since the emergence of the concept of chemical topology, interlocked molecular assemblies
have graduated from academic curiosities and poorly defined species to become synthetic …

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 …

The field of supramolecular chemistry has been flourishing since J.-M. Lehn, DJ Cram, and
CJ Pedersen were awarded the 1987 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. By Prof. Lehn's definition, 1 …

In this review, a comprehensive summary of supramolecular transformations within discrete
coordination-driven supramolecular architectures, including helices, metallacycles …

Macrocyclic structures are common synthetic targets in drug discovery,(1, 2) and therefore,
interest in their study is continuously increasing in this field.(3, 4) A classic example is …

Supramolecular materials, dynamic materials by nature, are defined as materials whose
components are bridged via reversible connections and undergo spontaneous and …
