Confining molecules can fundamentally change their chemical and physical properties.
Confinement effects are considered instrumental at various stages of the origins of life, and …

Directed motion at the nanoscale is a central attribute of life, and chemically driven motor
proteins are nature's choice to accomplish it. Motivated and inspired by such …

Macroscopic electric motors continue to have a large impact on almost every aspect of
modern society. Consequently, the effort towards develo** molecular motors,–that can be …

Objects in all dimensions are subject to translational dynamism and dynamic mutual
interactions, and the ability to exert control over these events is one of the keys to the …

Bio‐orthogonal tumor labeling is more effective in delivering imaging agents or drugs to a
tumor site than active targeting strategy owing to covalent ligation. However, to date, tumor …

The tetracationic cyclophane, cyclobis (paraquat‐p‐phenylene), also known as the little blue
box, constitutes a modular receptor that has facilitated the discovery of many host–guest …

Herein we present a new viologen‐based radical‐containing metal–organic framework
(RMOF) Gd‐IHEP‐7, which upon heating in air undergoes a single‐crystal‐to‐single‐crystal …

Research on mechanically interlocked molecules has advanced substantially over the last
five decades. A large proportion of the published work focusses on the synthesis of these …

Radical-pairing interactions between conjugated organic π-radicals are relative newcomers
to the inventory of molecular recognition motifs explored in supramolecular chemistry. The …

This review highlights developments since 2008 in the field of polypseudorotaxanes and
polyrotaxanes. Progress in synthetic polyrotaxane chemistry has resulted in the preparation …
