Lanthanide-containing functional complexes have found a variety of applications in materials science and biomedicine because their unique electroptical magnetic properties. However, the poor stability solubility water multicomponent lanthanide organic assemblies significantly limit practical applications. We report here series water-stable anionic Ln2nL3n-type (n = 2, 3, 4, 5) polyhedra (LOPs) constructed by deprotonation self-assembly three fully conjugated ligands (H4L1 H4L2a/b) featuring...
In the field of supramolecular chemistry, host-guest systems have been extensively explored to encapsulate a wide range substrates, owing emerging functionalities in nanoconfined space that cannot be achieved dilute solutions. However, chemistry is still limited encapsulation small guests. Herein, we construct water-soluble metallo-supramolecular hexagonal prism with large hydrophobic cavity by anchoring multiple polyethylene glycol chains onto building blocks. Then, assembled prisms are...
Photodynamic therapy (PDT), as an emerging cancer treatment, requires the development of highly desirable photosensitizers (PSs) with integrated functional groups to achieve enhanced therapeutic efficacy. Coordination-driven self-assembly (CDSA) would provide alternative approach for combining multiple PSs synergistically. Here, we demonstrate a simple yet powerful strategy conventional chromophores (tetraphenylethylene, porphyrin, or Zn-porphyrin) pyridinium salt together through...
During the past few decades, study of single polymer chain has attracted considerable attention with goal exploring structure–property relationship polymers. It still, however, remains challenging due to variability and low atomic resolution amorphous chain. Here, we demonstrated a new strategy visualize metallopolymer hexameric or trimeric supramolecule as repeat unit, in which Ru(II) strong coordination Fe(II) weak were combined together stepwise manner. With help ultrahigh-vacuum,...
The strength and toughness are two trade-off properties of a material, yet Nature can achieve strong tough materials by introducing sacrificial bonds into system. Here, we present four-component multiblock copolymer (mBCP) approach toward elastic fibers, terpyridine moieties poly(ether ester) mBCP elastomers. After coordination with Fe(II), supramolecular cross-links formed within the physically cross-linked thermoplastic toughening fibers double-cross-linked network structure show high...
ABSTRACT Long‐term in vivo fluorescence analysis is growing into a sparkling frontier gaining deep insights various biological processes. Exploration of such fluorophores with high performance still remains an appealing yet significantly challenging task. In this study, we have elaborately integrated second near‐infrared (NIR‐II) emissive fluorophore the metal Pt self‐assembled prism‐like metallacage M‐DBTP, which enables intravital long‐term tracking through NIR‐II imaging technologies....
We demonstrate here the synthesis of a novel class metallo-supramolecular polymers with shackled structure, via coordination cyclic di(bis-terpyridine-triphenyl ether ester) ligands ruthenium(II) ions. The constraint from ring topology shackling provides properties to these polymers, including formation dendritic crystals, red-shift absorption bands in UV–vis spectra interchain charge-transfer transitions, and typical flash-type memory behavior.
Coordination-driven self-assembly is a powerful approach for the construction of metallosupramolecules, but designing coordination moieties that can drive with high selectivity and specificity remains challenge. Here we report two ortho-modified terpyridine ligands form head-to-tail complexes Zn(II). Both show narcissistic self-sorting behaviour. In addition, starting from these ligands, obtain sterically congested multitopic use them to construct more complex metallo-supramolecules...

Tubular structures offer a wide variety of applications; therefore, designing such materials with distinct dimensions is highly desirable yet challenging. In the current report, we have demonstrated synthesis one-dimensional (1D) tubular assembly comprising porphyrin nanoring subunits. The (PNR) 2 bearing ester groups was synthesized via Pt-mediated cyclization and then hydrolyzed to obtain PNR 3 carboxylic groups. Under optimized conditions, nanotubes (PNTs) were formed through hydrogen...
Biological systems employ non-equilibrium self-assembly to create ordered nanoarchitectures with sophisticated functions. However, it is challenging construct artificial nanoassemblies due lack of control over assembly dynamics and kinetics. Herein, we design a series linear polymers different side groups for further coordination-driven based on shape-complementarity. Such introduces main-chain confinement which effectively slows down the process groups, thus allowing us monitor real-time...
The supramolecular fullerene liquid crystal phase and structure can be regulated by controlling the enthalpy–entropy competition tuning flexible chain length.
Traditional metamaterial systems usually own a low Q factor due to the strong absorption and radiation loss. Fano resonances in ultrathin metasurfaces provide an efficient method for solving issue. In this work, we theoretically experimentally study trapped-mode resonance rectangular-hole dimers with broken symmetry. Compared asymmetric particle that have been widely investigated, hole freestanding metal screens present all-metallic platform engineering high-Q resonances. With experiments,...
Abstract In contrast to edge‐on and face‐on orientations, end‐on uniaxial conjugated polymers have the theoretical possibility of providing a macroscopic crystalline film. However, their fabrication is insurmountable due sluggishly thermodynamic equilibrium states. Herein, we report programmatic pathway fabricate nanoarchitectonics on metallopolymers by surface‐initiated simultaneous electrosynthesis assembly. Self‐assembled monolayer (SAM) with bottom‐up oriented electroactive molecules as...

By the coordination of dangling terpyridine (TPY) ligands with transition metal ions to form supramolecular cross-linking points as sacrificial bonds (SBs), a double-cross-linked system is constructed from physically cross-linked semicrystalline polyesters. The mechanical properties are greatly enhanced, and effect interaction strength on toughening has been investigated by using different (Fe2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+). It shows that stronger provide larger Young's modulus, but not for...
