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 …

Two-dimensional metallacycles and three-dimensional metallacages constructed by
coordination-driven self-assembly have attracted much attention because they exhibit …

The design and synthesis of functional molecules with controllable properties are at the
forefront of modern materials chemistry research due to their diverse applicability, especially …

In this review we intend to provide a relatively comprehensive summary of the work of
supramolecular hydrogelators after 2004 and to put emphasis particularly on the …

Iron (II) spin crossover (SCO) materials have been widely studied as molecular switches with
a wide variety of potential applications, including as displays, sensors, actuators or memory …

Fascination with supramolecular chemistry over the past few decades has led to the
synthesis of an ever-increasing number of elegant and intricate functional structures with …

Molecular magnetism has travelled a long way from the pioneering studies on electron
exchange and double exchange or spin crossover and valence tautomerism in small …

Recently we assisted a strong renewed interest in the fascinating field of molecular spin
crossover complexes by (1) the emergence of nanosized spin crossover materials through …

Supramolecular chemistry has developed over the last forty years as chemistry beyond the
molecule. Starting with the investigation of the basis of molecular recognition, it has explored …

Technological challenges for quantum information technologies lead us to consider aspects
of molecular magnetism in a radically new perspective. The design of new derivatives and …
