Abstract
The design of synthetic systems with interrelated reaction sequences that model incipient biological complexity is limited by physicochemical tools that allow the direct monitoring of the individual processes in real-time. To mimic a simple digestion-resorption sequence, the authors have designed compartmentalized liposomal systems that incorporate extra- and intravesicular chemosensing ensembles. The extravesicular reporter pair consists of cucurbit[7]uril and methylene blue to monitor the enzymatic cleavage of short enkephalin-related peptides by thermolysin through a switch-off fluorescence response ("digestion"). Because the substrate is membrane-impermeable, but the dipeptide product is permeable, uptake of the latter into the pre-formed liposomes occurs as a follow-up process. The intravesicular chemosensing ensemble consists of i) cucurbit[8]uril, 2-anilinonaphthalene-6-sulfonic acid, and methyl viologen or ii) cucurbit[7]uril and berberine to monitor the uptake ("resorption") of the enzymatic products through the liposomal membranes by i) a switch-on or ii) a switch-off fluorescence response. The dyes are designed to allow selective optical excitation and read-out of the extra- and intravesicular dyes, which allow for dual-color chemosensing and, therefore, kinetic discrimination of the two sequential reactions.

Abstract
A novel conjugated polymer (Co-P[5]Flu) was synthesized by copolymerizing a difunctionalized pillar[5]arene and a fluorene derivative monomer. Co-P[5]Flu displayed an aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE) effect because of the restricted intramolecular rotations of the pillar[5]arene unit. Co-P[5]Flu exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity towards the pesticide paraquat (PQ) with excellent anti-interference properties. It presented fluorescence quenching response (1-I/I0=96.6%) only towards paraquat and not towards other competitive guests. The fluorescence titration experiments revealed that the detection limit (LOD) for paraquat was as low as 1.69×10-8 M, and the Stern-Volmer constant (KSV) was determined to be 2.11×104 M-1. The recognition mechanism was studied using both 1H NMR titration and theoretical calculations. The Co-P[5]Flu showed fluorescence quenching for PQ due to the synergistic effect of polypseudorotaxane formation and photoinduced electron transfer (PET). Additionally, the polymer chemosensor demonstrated potential for the detection of paraquat in practical samples.

Abstract
Traditional water-soluble organic macrocyclic receptors generally lack photofunctionality, thus monitoring the drug delivery and the phototheranostic applications of these host-guest macrocyclic systems has been greatly restricted. To address this issue, incorporating π-conjugated dye chromophores as building blocks into macrocyclic molecules is a straightforward and promising strategy. This approach not only imparts intrinsic optical features to the macrocycles themselves but also enhances the host-guest binding ability due to the large planar structures of the dyes. In this feature article, we focus on recent advances in water-soluble macrocyclic compounds based on organic dye chromophores, such as naphthalimide (NDI), perylene diimides (PDI), azobenzene (azo), tetraphenylethylene (TPE) and anthracene, and provide an overview of their various applications including molecular recognition, drug release, biological imaging, photothermal therapy, etc. We hope that this article could be helpful and instructive for the design of water-soluble dye-based macrocycles and the further development of their biomedical applications, particularly in combination with drug therapy and phototheranostics.

Abstract
Highly efficient discrimination between cancer cells and normal cells is full of challenges for precise diagnosis. Herein, we report an effective in situ-activated phosphorescence energy transfer supramolecular assembly constructed by a bromophenyl pyridine derivative (BPPY), cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]), and rhodamine B-grafted hyaluronic acid (HAR) through noncovalent interaction. As compared with BPPY, CB[8] encapsulated two BPPY molecules, resulting in a biaxial pseudorotaxane supramolecular assembly showing purely organic room-temperature phosphorescence induced by macrocyclic confinement, which when further co-assembled with HAR, formed a multivalent supramolecular assembly with phosphorescence energy transfer. Benefitting from the targeting of hyaluronic acid and the cyclolactam ring ON-OFF reaction of HAR, such supramolecular assembly with an open ring presents red delayed fluorescence through phosphorescence energy transfer in cancer cells, while the assembly showed only green phosphorescence in normal cells, realizing highly efficient discrimination between cancer and normal cells. This supramolecular assembly is responsive to the physiological environment and provides a supramolecular platform for precise diagnosis.

Abstract
A two-step sequential phosphorescence harvesting system with ultralarge Stokes shift and near-infrared (NIR) emission at 825 nm is successfully constructed by racemic 1,2-diaminocyclohexan-derived 6-bromoisoquinoline (BQ), cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]), and amphipathic sulfonatocalix[4]arene (SC4AD) via cascaded assembly strategy in aqueous solution. In virtue of the confinement effect of CB[8] with rigid cavity, BQ can generate an emerging phosphorescent emission at 555 nm. Subsequently, the binary BQ⊂CB[8] further assemblies with SC4AD to form close-packed spherical aggregate, which contributes to the dramatic enhancement of phosphorescence emission intensity ≈30 times with prolonged lifetime from 21.3 µs to 0.364 ms. Notably, the BQ⊂CB[8]@SC4AD assembly can serve as an energy donor to conduct stepwise phosphorescence harvesting process through successive introduction of primary acceptors, cyanine 5 (Cy5) or nile blue (NiB), and secondary acceptor, heptamethine cyanine (IR780). The final aggregate with remarkable ultralarge Stokes shift (≈525 nm) and long-lived NIR photoluminescence (PL) emission at 825 nm is further employed as imaging agent for NIR cell labeling.

We have developed a new strategy of tumor-specific glucose transporter (GLUT)-mediated selective drug delivery using amphiphilic fluorescent monoglycocalix[4]arene in docetaxel (DTX) encapsulated nanoparticles (NPs) that leads to significant improvement in cytotoxic activity against a panel of human cancer cells. The fluorescent tracer conjugation in the calixarene enables the self-probed tumor targeting analysis and makes the system potentially suitable for tumor diagnostic imaging.

Abstract
Regulation of physio-chemical properties and reaction activities via noncovalent methodology has become one of increasingly significant topics in supramolecular chemistry and showed inventive applications in miscellaneous fields. Herein, we demonstrate that sulfonated crown ether can form very stable host-guest complexes with a series of push-pull-type photosensitizers, eventually leading to the dramatic fluorescence enhancement in visible and near-infrared regions. Meanwhile, severe suppression in singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) production is found, mainly due to the higher energy barriers between the excited single and triple states upon host-guest complexation. Moreover, such complexation-induced tuneable 1 O2 generation systems has been utilized in adjusting the photochemical oxidation reactions of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (anthracene) and sulfides ((methylthio)benzene) in water. This supramolecularly controlled photooxidation based on the selective molecular binding of crown ether with photosensitizers may provide a feasible and applicable strategy for monitoring and modulating many photocatalysis processes in aqueous phase.

Abstract
In this study, three mono-dendronized β-cyclodextrin (βCD) derivatives (βCD-1G, βCD-2G, and βCD-3G) were used as multitasking containers of curcumin (CUR) to influence its aqueous solubility and tautomerism, both of which are related to its biological activity. We evaluated the relevant physicochemical properties of these containers associated with their potential hosting capacity. All mono-dendronized derivatives exhibited enhanced solubility in different solvents, including water, in comparison with native βCD. Gas-phase geometry optimizations by density functional theory (DFT) confirmed that none of the dendrons blocked the passage of CUR into the βCD cavity, and depending on the generation, different preorganization scenarios were promoted before complexation. Phase solubility diagrams showed that all the dendronized containers have superior performance for solubilizing CUR compared to native βCD. We proved that coprecipitation is most efficient than lyophilization for forming inclusion complexes (ICs) with dendronized containers. Even though βCD-3G with the largest 3G dendron exhibited the highest CUR loading, the complexation of CUR with βCD-2G provided the supramolecular system that contains CUR preferentially in its diketo tautomer, which is known for its antioxidant activity.

Abstract
Multivalent supramolecular assemblies have recently attracted extensive attention in the applications of soft materials and cell imaging. Here, we report a novel multivalent supramolecular assembly constructed from 4-(4-bromophenyl)pyridine-1-ium bromide modified hyaluronic acid (HABr), cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) and laponite® clay (LP), which could emit purely organic room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) with a phosphorescence lifetime of up to 4.79 ms in aqueous solution via multivalent supramolecular interactions. By doping the organic dyes rhodamine B (RhB) or sulfonated rhodamine 101 (SR101) into the HABr/CB[8]/LP assembly, phosphorescence energy transfer was realized with high transfer efficiency (energy transfer efficiency = 73–80%) and ultrahigh antenna effect (antenna effect value = 308–362) within the phosphorescent light harvesting system. Moreover, owing to the dynamic nature of the noncovalent interactions, a wide-range spectrum of phosphorescence energy transfer outputs could be obtained not only in water but also on filter paper and a glass plate by adjusting the donor–acceptor ratio and, importantly, white-light emission was obtained, which could be used in the application of information encryption. An ultralong lifetime supramolecular assembly was constructed via multivalent supramolecular interactions and achieved phosphorescence light harvesting. Multicolor (including white) broad-spectrum outputs could be achieved in water and also on filter paper and a glass plate.![]()

Abstract
The construction of highly effective phosphorescence energy transfer capturing system still remains great challenge in aqueous phase. Herein, a high-efficiency supramolecular purely organic room temperature phosphorescence (RTP)-capturing system via a secondary assembly strategy by taking advantage of cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) and amphiphilic calixarene (SC4AH) is reported. Comparing with free bromonaphthalene-connected methoxyphenyl pyridinium salt (G), G⊂CB[8] exhibits an emerging RTP emission peak at 530 nm. Moreover, G⊂CB[8] further interacts with SC4AH to form the ternary assembly G⊂CB[8] @ SC4AH accompanied by remarkably enhanced RTP emission. Interestingly, RTP-capturing systems with delayed near-infrared (NIR) emissive performance (635, 675 nm) are feasibly acquired by introducing Nile Red (NiR) or Nile Blue (NiB) as the acceptor into hydrophobic layer of G⊂CB[8] @ SC4AH, possessing ultrahigh antenna effects (352.9, 123.5) at a high donor/acceptor ratio (150:1, 300:1). More importantly, cell experiments indicate that G⊂CB[8] @ SC4AH/NiB not only hold low cytotoxicity but also can successfully realize NIR lysosome-targeted imaging of A549 cancer cells. This RTP-capturing system of delayed NIR emission via multistage assembly strategy offers a new approach for NIR imaging in living cells.

Abstract
Structural designs combining cycloparaphenylenes (CPPs) backbone with planar chiral [2.2]Paracyclophane ([2.2]PCP) lead to optical-active chiral macrocycles with intriguing properties. X-ray crystal analysis revealed aesthetic necklace-shaped structures and size-dependent packages with long-range channels. The macrocycles exhibit unique photophysical properties with high fluorescence quantum yield of up to 82%, and the fluorescent color varies with ring size. In addition, size-dependent chiroptical properties with moderately large CPL dissymmetry factor of 10 -3 and CPL brightness in the range of 30 - 40 M -1 cm -1 were observed.

Abstract
This review discusses the design and syntheses of molecular-scale pillar[n]arene-based porous materials with promising applications and summarises the development of using pillar[n]arenes as the building blocks of porous materials. From the perspective of "role of participation" in the syntheses of molecular-scale pillar[n]arene-based porous materials, the content can be divided into pillar[n]arenes serving as supramolecular nanovalves on surfaces and as ligands for metal-organic frameworks and covalent organic polymers. By integrating pillararenes, which possess rigid pillar-like structures, electron-rich cavities and desirable host-guest properties, with porous polymers of large surface areas and abundant active sites, applications of the resulting materials in drug release platforms, molecular recognition, sensing, detection, gas adsorption, removal of water pollution, organic photovoltaic materials and heterogeneous catalysis can be realised simultaneously and efficiently. Finally, in the conclusions and perspectives part, we put forward the challenges and viewpoints of the current research on pillar[n]arene-based porous materials. We hope this article can provide a timely and valuable reference for researchers interested in synthetic macrocycles and porous materials.

Abstract
A series of macrocyclic compounds, including crown ether, cyclodextrin, cucurbituril and pillararene, bound to various specific organic/inorganic/biological guest molecules and ions through various non-covalent interactions, can not only make a single system multifunctional but also endow the system with intelligence, especially for luminescent materials. Due to their excellent luminescence properties, such as long-lived excited states, sharp linear emission bands and large Stokes shift, lanthanides have shown great advantages in luminescence, and have been more and more applied in the design of advanced functional luminescent materials. Based on reported research, we summarize the progress of lanthanide luminescent materials based on different macrocyclic compounds from ion or molecule recognition to functional nano-supramolecular assembly of the lanthanide-macrocycle supramolecular system including photo-reaction mediated switch of lanthanide luminescent molecules, multicolor luminescence, ion detection and cell imaging of rare-earth up-conversion of macrocyclic supramolecular assembly. Finally, we put forward the prospects of future development of lanthanide luminescent macrocyclic supramolecular materials.

Abstract
An ultrahigh supramolecular cascaded phosphorescence-capturing aggregate was constructed by multivalent co-assembly of cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) and amphipathic sulfonatocalix[4]arene (SC4AD). The initial dibromophthalimide derivative (G) generated a weak phosphorescent emission at 505 nm by host-guest interaction with CB[7], which further assembled with SC4AD to form homogeneously spherical nanoparticles with a dramatic enhancement of both phosphorescence lifetime to 1.13 ms and emission intensity by 40-fold. Notably, this G⊂CB[7]@SC4AD aggregate exhibited efficient phosphorescence energy transfer to Rhodamine B (RhB) and benzothiadiazole (DBT) with high efficiency (ϕET ) of 84.4 % and 76.3 % and an antenna effect (AE) of 289.4 and 119.5, respectively, and then each of these can function as a bridge to further transfer their energy to second near-IR acceptors Cy5 or Nile blue (NiB) to achieve cascaded phosphorescence energy transfer. The final aggregate with long-range effect from 425 nm to 800 nm and long-lived photoluminescence was further employed as an imaging agent for multicolour cell labeling.

Abstract
Synthetic molecular recognition systems are increasingly being used to solve applied problems in the life sciences, and bio-targeted host-guest chemistry has rapidly arisen as a major field of fundamental research. This tutorial review presents a set of fundamental lessons on how host-guest molecular recognition can be programmed in water. The review uses informative examples of aqueous host-guest chemistry organized around generalizable themes and lessons, building towards lessons focused on molecular recognition in salty solutions and biological fluids. It includes selected examples of macrocyclic host systems that work well, as well as common pitfalls and how to avoid them. The review closes with a survey of the most important and inspirational recent advances, which involve host-guest chemistry in living cells and organisms.

Abstract
For the first time, a series of catechol-containing Schiff bases, tetrasubstituted at the lower rim thiacalix[4]arene derivatives in three stereoisomeric forms, cone, partial cone, and 1,3-alternate, were synthesized. The structure of the obtained compounds was proved by modern physical methods, such as NMR, IR spectroscopy, and HRMS. Selective recognition (Kb difference by three orders of magnitude) of copper (II) cation in the series of d-metal cations (Cu2+, Ni2+, Co2+, Zn2+) was shown by UV-vis spectroscopy. Copper (II) ions are coordinated at the nitrogen atom of the imine group and the nearest oxygen atom of the catechol fragment in the thiacalixarene derivatives. High thermal stable organic-inorganic copper-based materials were obtained on the base of 1,3-alternate + Cu (II) complexes.

Abstract
Rare earth (RE) complexes have found a variety of applications in materials science and biomedicine because of their unique luminescence properties. However, the poor stability and solubility in water of multicomponent RE assemblies significantly limit their practical applications. We rationally designed and developed a novel Eu3+/Tb3+ supramolecular assembly hybrids (Eu/Tb-SAH) by supramolecular host-guest recognition and coordination recognition with the excellent characteristics of water dispersion stability, biocompatibility and luminous properties. As anthrax spore biomarker, 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (DPA) can coordinate with Tb3+ and sensitize Tb3+, resulting in a proportional change of fluorescence intensity and lifetime on the ms timescales, thereby realizing rapid and sensitive detection of DPA in water media or actual spores. To confirm our prediction, accurate and selective detection of DPA was achieved with Eu/Tb-SAH as a nanoprobe through steady-state ratiometric fluorescence and time-resolved technology, of which the limit of detection (LOD) are 27.3 nM and 1.06 nM, respectively. This was obviously lower than the amount of anthrax spores infecting the human body (60 μM). Besides, the filter paper was used to carry out visual detection of DPA and read the corresponding data through smart phones. This work paves a new way to fabricate luminescent RE nanomaterials and provides new ideas for the design of ratiometic lifetime imaging biosensors in the meantime.

Abstract
A new macrocyclic arene, helic[1]triptycene[3]arene H, was conveniently synthesized in 37% yield by a one-pot reaction starting from 2,6-dimethoxyl-3,7-dihydroxymethyltriptycene. Macrocycle H showed fixed conformation in solution and could form 1:1 complexes with a series of neutral guests, secondary ammonium salts, and tertiary ammonium salts in both solution and solid states. The association constants between H and the neutral guests were between (1.23 ± 0.10) × 102 and (4.70 ± 0.47) × 103 M-1, while the association constants between H and the ammonium guests were between (1.35 ± 0.12) × 103 and (1.59 ± 0.14) × 105 M-1. Moreover, H showed bigger association constants with secondary ammonium salts than those with tertiary ammonium salts possibly because of the steric hindrance effect and multiple intermolecular interactions. The stimuli-responsive complexation between H and the ammonium salts could be controlled by the addition and removal of acids and bases as well. Based on the host-guest complexation between H and the secondary ammonium salt, [2]rotaxane was further synthesized, and its shuttling motion could be efficiently controlled by an acid and base.
