Abstract
The assembly of donor-acceptor molecules via charge transfer (CT) interactions gives rise to highly ordered nanomaterials with appealing electronic properties. Here, we present the synthesis and bulk co-assembly of pyrene (Pyr) and naphthalenediimide (NDI) functionalized oligodimethylsiloxanes (oDMS) of discrete length. We tune the donor-acceptor interactions by connecting the pyrene and NDI to the same oligomer, forming a heterotelechelic block molecule (NDI-oDMSPyr), and to two separate oligomers, giving Pyr and NDI homotelechelic block molecules (Pyr-oDMS and NDI-oDMS). Liquid crystalline materials are obtained for binary mixtures of Pyr-oDMS and NDI-oDMS, while crystallization of the CT dimers occurred for the heterotelechelic NDI-oDMS-Pyr block molecule. The synergy between crystallization and phase-segregation coupled with the discrete length of the oDMS units allows for perfect order and sharp interfaces between the insulating siloxane and CT layers composed of crystalline CT dimers. We were able to tune the lamellar domain spacing and donor-acceptor CT interactions by applying pressures up to 6 GPa on the material, making the system promising for soft-material nanotechnologies. These results demonstrate the importance of the molecular design to tune the CT interactions and stability of a CT material.

Abstract
Soft robots are, due to their softness, inherently safe and adapt well to unstructured environments. However, they are prone to various damage types. Self-healing polymers address this vulnerability. Self-healing soft robots can recover completely from macroscopic damage, extending their lifetime. For developing healable soft robots, various formative and additive manufacturing methods have been exploited to shape self-healing polymers into complex structures. Additionally, several novel manufacturing techniques, noted as (re)assembly binding techniques that are specific to self-healing polymers, have been created. Herein, the wide variety of processing techniques of self-healing polymers for robotics available in the literature is reviewed, and limitations and opportunities discussed thoroughly. Based on defined requirements for soft robots, these techniques are critically compared and validated. A strong focus is drawn to the reversible covalent and (physico)chemical cross-links present in the self-healing polymers that do not only endow healability to the resulting soft robotic components, but are also beneficial in many manufacturing techniques. They solve current obstacles in soft robots, including the formation of robust multi-material parts, recyclability, and stress relaxation. This review bridges two promising research fields, and guides the reader toward selecting a suitable processing method based on a self-healing polymer and the intended soft robotics application.

Abstract
Biobased circular materials are alternatives to fossil-based engineering plastics, but simple and material-efficient synthetic routes are needed for industrial scalability. Here, a series of lignin-based vitrimers built on dynamic acetal covalent networks with a gel content exceeding 95% were successfully prepared in a one-pot, thermally activated, and catalyst-free "click" addition of softwood kraft lignin (SKL) to poly(ethylene glycol) divinyl ether (PDV). The variation of the content of lignin from 28 to 50 wt % was used to demonstrate that the mechanical properties of the vitrimers can be widely tuned in a facile way. The lowest lignin content (28 wt %) showed a tensile strength of 3.3 MPa with 35% elongation at break, while the corresponding values were 50.9 MPa and 1.0% for the vitrimer containing 50 wt % of lignin. These lignin-based vitrimers also exhibited excellent performance as recoverable adhesives for different substrates such as aluminum and wood, with a lap shear test strength of 6.0 and 2.6 MPa, respectively. In addition, recyclability of the vitrimer adhesives showed preservation of the adhesion performance exceeding 90%, indicating a promising potential for their use in sustainable circular materials.

Abstract
Accurate control of the layer number of orderly stacked 2D polymers has been an unsettled challenge in self-assembly. Herein we describe the fabrication of a bilayer 2D supramolecular organic framework from a monolayer 2D supramolecular organic framework in water by utilizing the cooperative coordination of a rod-like bipyridine ligands to zinc porphyrin subunits of the monolayer network. The monolayer supramolecular framework is prepared from the co-assembly of an octacationic zinc porphyrin monomer and cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) in water through CB[8]-encapsulation-promoted dimerization of 4-phenylpyridiunium subunits that the zinc porphyrin monomer bear. The bilayer 2D supramolecular organic framework exhibits structural regularity in both solution and the solid state, which is characterized by synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering and high-resolution transmission electron microscopic techniques. Atomic force microscopic imaging confirms that the bilayer character of the 2D supramolecular organic framework can be realized selectively on the micrometer scale.

Abstract
For the creation of next-generation organic electronic materials, the integration of π-systems has recently become a central theme. Such functional materials can be assembled by supramolecular polymerization when aromatic π-systems are used as monomers, and the properties of the resulting supramolecular polymer strongly depend on the electronic structure of the monomers. Here, we demonstrate the construction of a supramolecular polymer consisting of an antiaromatic π-system as the monomer. An amide-functionalized NiII norcorrole derivative formed a one-dimensional supramolecular polymer through π-π stacking and hydrogen-bonding interactions, ensuring the persistency of the conducting pathway against thermal perturbation, which results in higher charge mobility along the tightly bound linear aggregates than that of the aromatic analogue composed of ZnII porphyrins.

Abstract
An amphiphilic phosphodiester‐linked azobenzene trimer has been exploited in the development of stimuli‐responsive, water‐soluble supramolecular polymers. The trimer can reversibly undergo thermal and photoisomerization between Z‐ and E‐isomers. Its self‐assembly properties in aqueous medium have been investigated by spectroscopic and microscopic techniques, demonstrating that E‐ and Z‐azobenzene trimers form supramolecular nanosheets and toroidal nanostructures, respectively. By virtue of the E/Z photoisomerization of the azobenzene units, the two different supramolecular morphologies can be switched by photoirradiation. The findings pave a way towards stimuli‐responsive, water‐soluble supramolecular polymers which hold great promise in the development of smart functional materials.

Abstract
Synthetic chemists have developed robust methods to synthesize discrete molecules, linear and branched polymers, and disordered cross-linked networks. However, two-dimensional polymers (2DPs) prepared from designed monomers have been long missing from these capabilities, both as objects of chemical synthesis and in nature. Recently, new polymerization strategies and characterization methods have enabled the unambiguous realization of covalently linked macromolecular sheets. Here we review 2DPs and 2D polymerization methods. Three predominant 2D polymerization strategies have emerged to date, which produce 2DPs either as monolayers or multilayer assemblies. We discuss the fundamental understanding and scope of each of these approaches, including: the bond-forming reactions used, the synthetic diversity of 2DPs prepared, their multilayer stacking behaviors, nanoscale and mesoscale structures, and macroscale morphologies. Additionally, we describe the analytical tools currently available to characterize 2DPs in their various isolated forms. Finally, we review emergent 2DP properties and the potential applications of planar macromolecules. Throughout, we highlight achievements in 2D polymerization and identify opportunities for continued study.

Abstract
Additive manufacturing has significantly changed polymer science and technology by engineering complex material shapes and compositions. With the advent of dynamic properties in polymeric materials as a fundamental principle to achieve, e.g., self-healing properties, the use of supramolecular chemistry as a tool for molecular ordering has become important. By adjusting molecular nanoscopic (supramolecular) bonds in polymers, rheological properties, immanent for 3D printing, can be adjusted, resulting in shape persistence and improved printing. We here review recent progress in the 3D printing of supramolecular polymers, with a focus on fused deposition modelling (FDM) to overcome some of its limitations still being present up to date and open perspectives for their application.

Abstract
A fundamental goal in the noncovalent synthesis of ordered supramolecular polymers (SPs) is to achieve precise control over their size and size distribution; however, the reversible nature of noncovalent interactions often results in formation of living SPs with high dispersity in length. We report here on the self-limiting supramolecular polymerization (SPZ) of a series of multiarmed amphiphiles with propagation-attenuated reactivities that can automatically terminate the polymerization process, enabling effective control in both lengths and polydispersity. Through incorporating multiarmed oligoethylene-glycol (OEG) onto a quadratic aromatic segment, the lengths of the resultant SPs can be tuned from ∼1 μm to 130 and 50 nm with a polydispersity index of ∼1.2 for the last two SPs. We believe that the level of chain frustration of the multiarmed OEG segments, determined by both the number of arms and the degree of polymerization, poses physical and entropic constrains for supramolecular propagation to exceed a threshold length.

Abstract
We performed molecular dynamics simulations of self-assembled supramolecular nanotubules constructed from amphiphiles with bent-shaped rods. By systematically examining the structure from dimeric aggregates to the fully developed nanotubule, we identified the basic building block of the nanotubule and the optimal dimensions of its stable structure which are consistent with experimental findings. Moreover, we demonstrate that the cooperative interplay of different interactions drives aggregation by selecting and stabilizing the optimal self-assembled structures for various intermediates through a complex pathway. Additionally, contraction of the nanotubule, which accompanies the dehydration process, was observed upon heating. It is suggested that the optimal stability of the self-assembled aggregates is achieved by balancing entropic and enthalpic contributions, of which the ratio is a critical factor that drives the aggregation pathway.

Abstract
Hydrogels consisting of a three-dimensional hydrophilic network of biocompatible polymers have been widely used in tissue engineering. Owing to their tunable mechanical properties, hydrogels have been applied in both hard and soft tissues. However, most hydrogels lack self-adhesive properties that enable integration with surrounding tissues, which may result in suture or low repair efficacy. Self-adhesive hydrogels (SAHs), an emerging class of hydrogels based on a combination of three-dimensional hydrophilic networks and self-adhesive properties, continue to garner increased attention in recent years. SAHs exhibit reliable and suitable adherence to tissues, and easily integrate into tissues to promote repair efficiency. SAHs are designed either by mimicking the adhesion mechanism of natural organisms, such as mussels and sandcastle worms, or by using supramolecular strategies. This review summarizes the design and processing strategies of SAHs, clarifies underlying adhesive mechanisms, and discusses their applications in tissue engineering, as well as future challenges.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS In the quest for large but well-controlled supramolecular structures, the discotic benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide (BTA) has received quite some attention, because it can form hydrogen-bonded stacks that can be regarded as supramolecular polymers of which the single BTA molecule is the monomer. In this report, we consider a more complex BTA-based supramolecular polymer, namely one that is built up from supramolecular 'monomers'. EXPERIMENTS We design a tris-ligand L3 consisting of a BTA core carrying three dipicolinic acid (DPA) groups. L3 itself is too small to form polymers, but in the presence of appropriate metal ions, each L3 can form three coordination bonds and so form (L3)n clusters that are large enough to stack successfully: at an appropriate metal dose, long and stable filaments with a cross-sectional diameter of 12 nm appear. We monitor the growth process by UV-vis spectroscopy and light scattering, and use small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), TEM as well as molecular simulation to confirm the filamentous structure of the fibers and determine their dimensions. FINDINGS The formation and structure of the fiber are very similar for various transition metal ions, which enables introducing different functionalities, e.g., magnetic relaxivity, by proper choice of the metal ions. Hence, we obtain a doubly supramolecular polymer, connected axially by hydrogen bonds, and radially by coordination bonds. Not only does this realize a higher level of complexity, but it also allows to easily introduce and vary metal-derived functionalities.

Abstract
Supramolecular polymers are materials in which the connections between monomers in the polymer main chain are non-covalent bonds. This area has seen rapid expansion in the last two decades and has been exploited in several applications. However, suitable contiguous hydrogen-bond arrays can be difficult to synthesize, placing some limitations on the deployment of supramolecular polymers. We have designed a hydrogen-bonded polymer assembled from a bifunctional monomer composed of two replicating templates separated by a rigid spacer. This design allows the autocatalytic formation of the polymer main chain through the self-templating properties of the replicators and drives the synthesis of the bifunctional monomer from its constituent components in solution. The template-directed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction between nitrone and maleimide proceeds with high diastereoselectivity, affording the bifunctional monomer. The high binding affinity between the self-complementary replicating templates that allows the bifunctional monomer to polymerize in solution is derived from the positive cooperativity associated with this binding process. The assembly of the polymer in solution has been investigated by diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy. Both microcrystalline and thin films of the polymeric material can be prepared readily and have been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. These results demonstrate that the approach described here is a valid one for the construction of supramolecular polymers and can be extended to systems where the rigid spacer between the replicating templates is replaced by one carrying additional function.

Non-uniform Photoinduced Unfolding of Supramolecular Polymers Leading to Topological Block Nanofibers. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2021; 60:26986-26993.

Abstract
Synthesis of one-dimensional nanofibers with distinct topological (higher-order structural) domains in the same main chain is one of the challenging topics in modern supramolecular polymer chemistry. Non-uniform structural transformation of supramolecular polymer chains by external stimuli may enable preparation of such nanofibers. To demonstrate feasibility of this post-polymerization strategy, we prepared a photoresponsive helically folded supramolecular polymers from a barbiturate monomer containing an azobenzene-embedded rigid π-conjugated scaffold. In contrast to previous helically folded supramolecular polymers composed of a more flexible azobenzene monomer, UV-light induced unfolding of the newly prepared helically folded supramolecular polymers occurred nonuniformly, affording topological block copolymers consisting of folded and unfolded domains. The formation of such blocky copolymers indicates that the photoinduced unfolding of the helically folded structures initiates from relatively flexible parts such as termini or defects. Spontaneous refolding of the unfolded domains was observed after visible-light irradiation followed by aging to restore fully folded structures.

Abstract
The self-assembly of discrete molecular entities into functional nanomaterials has become a major research area in the past decades. The library of investigated compounds has diversified significantly, while the field as a whole has matured. The incorporation of metal ions in the molecular design of the (supra-)molecular building blocks greatly expands the potential applications, while also offering a promising approach to control molecular recognition and attractive and/or repulsive intermolecular binding events. Hence, supramolecular polymerization of metal-containing monomers has emerged as a major research focus in the field. In this perspective article, we highlight recent significant advances in supramolecular polymerization of metal-containing monomers and discuss their implications for future research. Additionally, we also outline some major challenges that metallosupramolecular chemists (will) have to face to produce metallosupramolecular polymers (MSPs) with advanced applications and functionalities.

Abstract
Supramolecular fibers composed of monomers that self-assemble directionally via noncovalent interactions are ubiquitous in nature, and of great interest in chemistry. In these structures, the constitutive monomers continuously exchange in-and-out the assembly according to a well-defined supramolecular equilibrium. However, unraveling the exchange pathways and their molecular determinants constitutes a nontrivial challenge. Here, we combine coarse-grained modeling, enhanced sampling, and machine learning to investigate the key factors controlling the monomer exchange pathways in synthetic supramolecular polymers having an intrinsic dynamic behavior. We demonstrate how the competition of directional vs. nondirectional interactions between the monomers controls the creation/annihilation of defects in the supramolecular polymers, from where monomers exchange proceeds. This competition determines the exchange pathway, dictating whether a fiber statistically swaps monomers from the tips or from all along its length. Finally, thanks to their generality, our models allow the investigation of molecular approaches to control the exchange pathways in these dynamic assemblies.

Abstract
Combining the unique corona structure of worm-like patchy micelles immobilized on a polymer fiber with the molecular self-assembly of 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxamides (BTAs) leads to hierarchical superstructures with a fir-tree-like morphology. For this purpose, worm-like patchy micelles bearing pendant, functional tertiary amino groups in one of the corona patches were prepared by crystallization-driven self-assembly and immobilized on a supporting polystyrene fiber by coaxial electrospinning. The obtained patchy fibers were then immersed in an aqueous solution of a tertiary amino-functionalized BTA to induce patch-mediated molecular self-assembly to well-defined fir-tree-like superstructures upon solvent evaporation. Interestingly, defined superstructures are obtained only if the pendant functional groups in the surface patches match with the peripheral substituents of the BTA, which is attributed to a local increase in BTA concentration at the polymer fibers' surface.

Abstract
Self-assembly of inorganic nanoparticles into mesoscopic or macroscopic nanoparticle assemblies is an efficient strategy to fabricate advanced devices with emergent nanoscale functionalities. Furthermore, assembly of nanoparticles onto substrates may enable the fabrication of substrate-integrated devices, akin to atomic crystal growth on a substrate. Recent progress in nanoparticle assembly suggests that ordered nanoparticle assemblies could be well produced on a selected substrate, referred to as soft epitaxial growth. Herein, recent advances in soft epitaxial growth of a nanoparticle assembly are presented, including the assembly strategies, the choice of substrate and the epitaxial modes. Perspectives are also discussed for the material design based on substrate-integrated soft epitaxial growth.

Abstract
The combination of complementary, noncovalent interactions is a key principle for the design of multistimuli responsive hydrogels. In this work, an amphiphilic peptide, supramacromolecular hydrogelator which combines metal-ligand coordination induced gelation and thermoresponsive toughening is reported. Following a modular approach, the incorporation of the triphenylalanine sequence FFF into a structural (C3 EG ) and a terpyridine-functionalized (C3 Tpy ) C3 -symmetric monomer enables their statistical copolymerization into self-assembled, 1D nanorods in water, as investigated by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In the presence of a terpyridine functionalized telechelic polyethylene glycol (PEG) cross-linker, complex formation upon addition of different transition metal ions (Fe2+ , Zn2+ , Ni2+ ) induces the formation of soft, reversible hydrogels at a solid weight content of 1 wt% as observed by linear shear rheology. The viscoelastic behavior of Fe2+ and Zn2+ cross-linked hydrogels are basically identical, while the most kinetically inert Ni2+ coordinative bond leads to significantly weaker hydrogels, suggesting that the most dynamic rather than the most thermodynamically stable interaction supports the formation of robust and responsive hydrogel materials.

Abstract
Ureido-pyrimidinone (UPy)-appended tris(phenylisoxazolyl)benzenes were synthesized. The UPy moieties of the tris(phenylisoxazolyl)benzenes stably formed self-complementary dimers in solution. The dimers self-assembled to form helically twisted stacking constructs in a process driven by π-π stacking interactions of UPy dimer moieties and dipole-dipole interactions of isoxazole units. Strong association affinity was seen within the stacking constructs compared with the previously reported isoxazole derivatives owing to the auxiliary π-π stacking interaction. Notably, tris(phenylisoxazolyl)benzenes showed an environmentally responsive nature. The absorption bands, emission intensities, and sizes of ensembles depended significantly on the mixing ratio of CHCl3 and methylcyclohexane (MCH). Additionally, sharp on-off switching phenomena were seen in their circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) spectra in response to the mixing ratio of CHCl3 and MCH. CD and CPL were activated only at a certain mixing ratio of CHCl3/MCH, thus showing potential for the creation of molecular sensors.

Abstract
NMR has been instrumental in studies of both the structure and dynamics of molecular systems for decades, so it is not surprising that NMR has played a pivotal role in the study of host-guest complexes and supramolecular systems. In this mini-review, selected examples will be used to demonstrate the added value of using (multiparametric) NMR for studying macrocycle-based host-guest and supramolecular systems. We will restrict the discussion to synthetic host systems having a cavity that can engulf their guests thus restricting them into confined spaces. So discussion of selected examples of cavitands, cages, capsules and their complexes, aggregates and polymers as well as organic cages and porous liquids and other porous materials will be used to demonstrate the insights that have been gathered from the extracted NMR parameters when studying such systems emphasizing the information obtained from somewhat less routine NMR methods such as diffusion NMR, diffusion ordered spectroscopy (DOSY) and chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) and their variants. These selected examples demonstrate the impact that the results and findings from these NMR studies have had on our understanding of such systems and on the developments in various research fields.

Abstract
The synthesis of two series of N-annulated perylene bisimides (PBIs), compounds 1 and 2, is reported, and their self-assembling features are thoroughly investigated by a complete set of spectroscopic measurements and theoretical calculations. The study corroborates the enormous influence that the distance between the PBI core and the peripheral groups exerts on the chiroptical properties and the supramolecular polymerization mechanism. Compounds 1, with the peripheral groups separated from the central PBI core by two methylenes and an ester group, form J-type supramolecular polymers in a cooperative manner but exhibit negligible chiroptical properties. The lack of clear helicity, due to the staircase arrangement of the self-assembling units in the aggregate, justifies these features. In contrast, attaching the peripheral groups directly to the N-annulated PBI core drastically changes the self-assembling properties of compounds 2, which form H-type aggregates following an isodesmic mechanism. These H-type aggregates show a strong aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect that leads to nonemissive aggregates. Chiral (S)-2 and (R)-2 experience an efficient transfer of asymmetry to afford P- and M-type aggregates, respectively, although no amplification of asymmetry is achieved in majority rules or "sergeants-and-soldiers" experiments. A solvent-controlled stereomutation is observed for chiral (S)-2 and (R)-2, which form helical supramolecular polymers of different handedness depending on the solvent (methylcyclohexane or toluene). The stereomutation is accounted for by considering the two possible conformations of the terminal phenyl groups, eclipsed or staggered, which lead to linear or helical self-assemblies, respectively, with different relative stabilities depending on the solvent.

Abstract
![]()
Hydrogen-bonded liquid
crystalline polymers have emerged as promising
“smart” supramolecular functional materials with stimuli-responsive,
self-healing, and recyclable properties. The hydrogen bonds can either
be used as chemically responsive (i.e., pH-responsive) or as dynamic
structural (i.e., temperature-responsive) moieties. Responsiveness
can be manifested as changes in shape, color, or porosity and as selective
binding. The liquid crystalline self-organization gives the materials
their unique responsive nanostructures. Typically, the materials used
for actuators or optical materials are constructed using linear calamitic
(rod-shaped) hydrogen-bonded complexes, while nanoporous materials
are constructed from either calamitic or discotic (disk-shaped) complexes.
The dynamic structural character of the hydrogen bond moieties can
be used to construct self-healing and recyclable supramolecular materials.
In this review, recent findings are summarized, and potential future
applications are discussed.

Abstract
Supramolecular polymer formed by non-covalent interactions between complementary building blocks entraps solvents and develops supramolecular polymer gel. A supramolecular polymer gel was prepared by the heating-cooling cycle of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and naphthalenedimide (NDI) solution in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The host-guest inclusion complex of β-CD and NDI 1 containing dodecyl amine forms the supramolecular polymer and gel in DMF. However, β-CD and NDI 2, having glutamic acid, fail to form the supramolecular polymer and gel under the same condition. X-ray crystallography shows that the alkyl chains of NDI 1 are complementary to the hydrophobic cavity of the two β-CD units. From rheology, the storage modulus was approximately 1.5 orders of magnitude larger than the loss modulus, which indicates the physical crosslink and elastic nature of the thermo-responsive gel. FE-SEM images of the supramolecular polymer gel exhibit flake-like morphology and a dense flake network. The flakes developed from the assembly of smaller rods. Photophysical studies show that the host-guest complex formation and gelation have significantly enhanced emission intensity with a new hump at 550 nm. Upon excitation by a 366 nm UV-light, NDI 1 and β-CD gel in DMF shows white light emission. The gel has the potential for the fabrication of organic electronic devices.

Abstract
Stereoselective inhibition of the nucleation and crystal growth of one enantiomer aided by "tailor-made" polymeric additives is an efficient method to obtain enantiopure compounds. However, the conventional preparation of polymeric additives from chiral monomers are laborious and limited in structures, which impedes their rapid optimization and applicability. Herein, we report a "plug-and-play" strategy to facilitate synthesis by using commercially available achiral polymers as the platform to attach various chiral small molecules as the recognition side-chains through non-covalent interactions. A library of supramolecular polymers made up of two vinyl polymers and six small molecules were applied with seeds in the selective crystallization of seven racemates in different solvents. They showed good to excellent stereoselectivity in yielding crystals with high enantiomeric purities in conglomerates and racemic compound forming systems. This convenient, low-cost modular synthesis strategy of polymeric additives will allow for high-efficient, economical resolution of various racemates on different scales.
