Heteroatom-centered diradical (oid) s have been in the focus of molecular main group
chemistry for nearly 30 years. During this time, the diradical concept has evolved and the …

The widespread use of molecular machines in biology has long suggested that great
rewards could come from bridging the gap between synthetic molecular systems and the …

Within living systems, molecular-scale responses to stimuli flow together into the intricate
and robust signal transduction networks that process information for an organism. Studies of …

Supramolecular chemistry mainly focuses on the chemical systems assembled by a discrete
number of molecular components through weak and reversible noncovalent interactions …

More than a quarter of a century after the first metal template synthesis of a [2] catenane in
Strasbourg, there now exists a plethora of strategies available for the construction of …

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 …

Organic electrochemistry is concerned with the reduction and oxidation of organic molecules
at electrodes. Although it is now more than 200 years ago that the so-called Volta pile was …

Molecular machines are essential dynamic components for fuel production, cargo delivery,
