    Chiral recognition of neutral guests by chiral naphthotubes with a bis-thiourea endo-functionalized cavity

    Develo** chiral receptors with an endo-functionalized cavity for chiral recognition is of great significance in the field of molecular recognition. This study presents two pairs of chiral naphthotubes contai...

    A supramolecular system that strictly follows the binding mechanism of conformational selection

    Induced fit and conformational selection are two dominant binding mechanisms in biology. Although induced fit has been widely accepted by supramolecular chemists, conformational selection is rarely studied wit...

    Shear-induced assembly of a transient yet highly stretchable hydrogel based on pseudopolyrotaxanes

    Dissipative self-assembly is common in biological systems, where it serves to maintain a far-from-equilibrium functional state through fuel consumption. Synthetic dissipative systems have been prepared that ca...
