This review surveys recent progress in the chemistry of polycyclic heteroaromatic molecules
with a focus on structural diversity and synthetic methodology. The article covers literature …

Conspectus Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and porous coordination polymers (PCPs)
have been well-recognized as emerging porous materials that afford highly tailorable and …

Design and construction of new functionalized supramolecular coordination complexes
(SCCs) via coordination-driven self-assembly strategy is highly important in supramolecular …

Molecular self-assembly is an essential process in biological systems to perform
sophisticated functions. Along the same line, development of artificial self-assembled …

Two rhomboidal metallacycles based on metal‐coordination‐driven self‐assembly are
presented. Because metal‐coordination interactions restrict the rotation of phenyl groups on …

We here report a new approach to develop self-healing shape memory supramolecular
liquid-crystalline (LC) networks through self-assembly of molecular building blocks via …

Shape-persistent conjugated macrocycles are fundamentally important because of their
unique structure and properties. Herein, a series of π-conjugated macrocycles with a shape …

This study describes the synthesis, liquid crystal and photophysical properties of fluorescent
biscyanovinyl diphenylcarbazole-based hexacatenars. The mesomorphic and …

2, 2′-Bipyridyl (bpy) is widely used as a chelating unit for metal complexation but is not
usually considered as a hydrogen-bonding unit. This is because the metal-free bpy units are …

The macrocycles with the features of large cavity, optical property and CPL response to
guest simultaneously are rarely reported but very attractive based on their potential …
