Solid-state multiple [2+ 2] cycloaddition reactions of polyenes continue to attract attention as
a mediate for the synthesis of polycyclobutane derivatives. The solid and crystalline states of …

A new class of supramolecular metallacycles capable of undergoing photochemical
reactions and in situ release of cyclobutanes in solution is described. The molecular …

In the search for molecules for organic photonics and electronics, several strategies have
been used to modulate physical and chemical properties of [2.2] paracyclophane derivatives …

Ag (I) is used to form a π-stacked metal–organic solid that exhibits remarkably high electrical
conductivity. The solid undergoes a single-crystal-to-single-crystal [2+ 2] photodimerization …

The observation of a reversible chemical transformation corresponding to an external
stimulus in the solid state is intriguing in the exploration of smart materials, which can …

New stilbenoid and thiophenic compounds terminally functionalized with donor–donor,
acceptor–acceptor, or donor–acceptor moieties and possessing a central [2.2] …

We report on B← N coordination to support a single-crystal-to-single-crystal reaction in the
solid state. A [2+ 2] photodimerization is achieved with face-to-face π-stacks of monotopic …

A series of templated solid-state reactions are used to construct the 'bent'isomer of the [2.2]
cyclophane family of molecules. Small-molecule hydrogen-bond-donor templates based on …

In this microreview, we highlight optical properties of [2.2] paracyclophanes (pCps). We
demonstrate how the spectroscopic properties that stem from the strained and π‐stacked …

Nonconjugated red fluorescent polymers have been increasingly studied to improve the
biocompatibility and penetration depth over conventional fluorescent materials. However …
