Journal ArticleDOI
The Pink Box: Exclusive Homochiral Aromatic Stacking in a Bis-perylene Diimide Macrocycle
Samuel E Penty,Martijn A. Zwijnenburg,Georgia Orton,Patrycja Stachelek,Robert Pal,Yujie Xie,Sarah L. Griffin,Timothy A. Barendt +7 more
TL;DR: In this article , a dynamic bis-PDI macrocycle was proposed to optimize the chiroptical and electrochemical properties of perylene diimides (PDIs) by exploiting the new bay connectivity of twisted PDIs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aqueous polyaromatic receptors for biomolecules with high selectivity
TL;DR: A recent review as discussed by the authors highlights recent progress of capsular and cage-type polyaromatic/aromatic receptors, mainly formed via coordination bonds, with high selectivity toward various biomolecules, i.e., amino acids and their oligomers, fatty and lactic acids, carbohydrates, alkaloids and nucleosides/nucleotides, steroids, and terpenes, in aqueous media.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pyromellitic Diimide-Extended Pillar[6]arene: Synthesis, Structure, and Its Complexation with Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons.
TL;DR: A pyromellitic diimide-extended pillar[6]arene was synthesized in two steps with moderate yield for the first time as discussed by the authors , which showed a symmetrical stretched hexagon structure and could form 1:2 complexes with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
ortho-Functionalization of Pillar[5]arene: An Approach to Mono-ortho-Alkyl/Aryl-Substituted A1/A2-Dihydroxypillar[5]arene.
TL;DR: A facile method of introducing a single functionality ortho to the hydroxyl group in A1/A2-dihydroxypillar[5]arenes via a Grignard addition to pillar[4]arene[1]quinone followed by a dienone-phenol rearrangement is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
New Synthetic Route to Water Soluble Prism[5]arene Hosts and their Molecular Recognition Properties.
Canjia Zhai,Lyle Isaacs +1 more
TL;DR: In this article , the direct macrocyclization of naphthalene monomers bearing ethyl ester functional groups delivers prism[5]arene derivatives which can be deprotected to yield water soluble prism[6]arenes (H1 and H3 ).

Single-shell carbon nanotubes of 1-nm diameter
Sumio Iijima,Toshinari Ichihashi +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the synthesis of abundant single-shell tubes with diameters of about one nanometre, whereas the multi-shell nanotubes are formed on the carbon cathode.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aggregation-Induced Emission: Together We Shine, United We Soar!
TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-analysis of the chiral stationary phase transition of Na6(CO3)(SO4)2, a major component of the response of the immune system to Na2CO3.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atomic structure of acetylcholinesterase from Torpedo californica: a prototypic acetylcholine-binding protein
Joel L. Sussman,Michal Harel,Felix Frolow,Christian Oefner,Adrian Goldman,Lilly Toker,Israel Silman +6 more
TL;DR: Modeling of acetylcholine binding to the enzyme suggests that the quaternary ammonium ion is bound not to a negatively charged "anionic" site, but rather to some of the 14 aromatic residues that line the gorge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthetic molecular motors and mechanical machines.
TL;DR: The exciting successes in taming molecular-level movement thus far are outlined, the underlying principles that all experimental designs must follow, and the early progress made towards utilizing synthetic molecular structures to perform tasks using mechanical motion are highlighted.
