Abstract
Herein, a thioether-functionalized porous β-cyclodextrin polymer (P(Bn-S-CD)) was prepared for efficient removal of heavy metal ions and organic micropollutants (OMPs) from water. P(Bn-S-CD) showed a surface area of 763 m2/g and a sulfur content 5.83 wt%. Based on screening studies, Hg2+ and diclofenac sodium (DS) were selected as model pollutants. P(Bn-S-CD) could adsorb Hg2+ and DS simultaneously, while the adsorbed Hg2+ afforded positive charges to the primary rims of CDs, greatly enhancing the adsorption rate and adsorption capacity of DS. Although the adsorbed DS showed no obvious effect on Hg2+ adsorption, it improved the affinity of Hg2+ upon P(Bn-S-CD). Adsorption mechanism studies confirmed the essential role of electrostatic interactions for these results. P(Bn-S-CD) also showed good selectivity towards heavy metal ions, excellent adsorption performance in real water at environmental levels and good reusability, implying great promise for water treatment.

Precise Recognition in Water by an Endo-Functionalized Cavity: Tuning the Complementarity of Binding Sites. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202310115.

Abstract
Precise binding towards structurally similar substrates is a common feature of biomolecular recognition. However, achieving such selectivity-especially in distinguishing subtle differences in substrates-with synthetic hosts can be quite challenging. Herein, we report a novel design strategy involving the combination of different rigid skeletons to adjust the distance between recognition sites within the cavity, which allows for the highly selective recognition of hydrogen-bonding complementary substrates, such as 4-chromanone. X-ray single-crystal structures and density functional theory calculations confirmed that the distance of endo-functionalized groups within the rigid cavity is crucial for achieving high binding selectivity through hydrogen bonding. The thermodynamic data and molecular dynamics simulations revealed a significant influence of the hydrophobic cavity on the binding affinity. The new receptor possesses both high selectivity and high affinity, which provide valuable insights for the design of customized receptors.

Abstract
Herein, β-cyclodextrin-containing hybrid polymers (P1, P2 and P3) were prepared through crosslinking partially benzylated β-cyclodextrin (PBCD) by octavinylsilsesquioxane (OVS). P1 stood out in screening studies and the residual hydroxyl groups of PBCD was sulfonate-functionalized. The obtained P1-SO3Na showed greatly enhanced adsorption towards cationic MPs and maintained the excellent adsorption performance towards neutral MPs. The rate constants (k2) of cationic MPs upon P1-SO3Na were 9.8-34.8 times larger than those upon P1. The equilibrium uptakes of the neutral and cationic MPs upon P1-SO3Na were above 94.5 %. Meanwhile, P1-SO3Na demonstrated appreciable adsorption capacities, excellent selectivity, effective adsorption of mixed MPs at environmental levels and good reusability. These results confirmed the great potential of P1-SO3Na as effective adsorbent to remove MPs from water.

Abstract
Two water-soluble tricyclic "Temple" macrocycles featuring pyrene roof/floor units and bis-urea spacers have been synthesised and studied as receptors for aromatic compounds in aqueous media. The tricycles show good selectivity for methylated purine alkaloids such as caffeine versus unsubstituted heterocycles such as adenine and indole. Binding is signalled by major changes in fluorescence, apparently due to the break-up of intramolecular excimers. The formation of excimers implies cavity collapse in the absence of guests explaining why, unlike an earlier relative, these receptors do not bind carbohydrates. Naphthalenediimides (NDIs) have also been studied as geometrically complementary guests, and indeed bind especially strongly (Ka > 107 M-1); this powerful and selective association suggests potential applications in supramolecular self-assembly.

Abstract
We found the binding affinities of amide naphthotube to neutral organic molecules in water are not influenced by most of small biomolecules, inorganic salts, and PBS and Tris buffers but are reduced in HEPES buffer through competitive binding. Nevertheless, salts do change the binding affinities of amide naphthotube to charged molecules through a screening effect.

Abstract
Emerging sutureless wound-closure techniques have led to paradigm shifts in wound management. State-of-the-art biomaterials offer biocompatible and biodegradable platforms enabling high cohesion (toughness) and adhesion for rapid bleeding control as well as robust attachment of implantable devices. Tough bioadhesion stems from the synergistic contributions of cohesive and adhesive interactions. This Review provides a biomacromolecular design roadmap for the development of tough adhesive surgical sealants. We discuss a library of materials and methods to introduce toughness and adhesion to biomaterials. Intrinsically tough and elastic polymers are leveraged primarily by introducing strong but dynamic inter- and intramolecular interactions either through polymer chain design or using crosslink regulating additives. In addition, many efforts have been made to promote underwater adhesion via covalent/noncovalent bonds, or through micro/macro-interlock mechanisms at the tissue interfaces. The materials settings and functional additives for this purpose and the related characterization methods are reviewed. Measurements and reporting needs for fair comparisons of different materials and their properties are discussed. Finally, future directions and further research opportunities for developing tough bioadhesive surgical sealants are highlighted.

Abstract
The combination of chemo- and biocatalysis for multistep syntheses provides attractive advantages in terms of evolvability, promiscuity, and sustainability striving for desirable catalytic performance. Through the encapsulation of flavin analogues by both NADH and heme mimics codecorated heteroleptic metal-organic capsules, herein, we report a progressive host-guest strategy to imitate cytochrome P450s catalysis for cascade oxidative coupling catalysis. Besides the construction of stable dual-function metal-organic capsules and the modification of cofactor-decorated capsules at the domain of enzymes, this supramolecular strategy involves multistage directional electron flow, affording reactive ferric peroxide species for inducing oxygenation. Under light irradiation, the metal-organic capsule selectively converts stilbene to oxidative coupling products (including 2-oxo-1,2-diphenylethyl formate, 2-alkoxy-1,2-diphenylethanone) in tandem with enzymatic reactions respectively, at the domain of natural enzymes. The ingenious combination of capsules and enzymes with the in situ-regenerated capsule-loaded NADH cofactor promises non-native coupling reactions by forming regional cooperation and division. This abiotic-biotic conjugated host-guest strategy is conducive to the de novo creation of multifunctional components approaching active enzymatic sites for reinforced matter and energy transporting, demonstrating a key role of multicomponent supramolecular catalysts for one-pot integrated catalytic conversions.

Abstract
Optical methods are promising to address the ever-increasing demands for chirality analysis in drug discovery and related fields because they are amenable to high-throughput screening. Circular dichroism-based chiroptical sensing using host-guest chemistry is especially appealing due to the fast equilibrium kinetics, wide substrate scope, and potential for sustainable development. In this Minireview, we give an overview on this emerging field. General aspects of molecular recognition and chirality transfer are analyzed. Chirality sensors are discussed by dividing them into three classes according to their structural features. Applications of these chirality sensors for chirality analysis of the products of asymmetric reactions and for the real-time monitoring of reaction kinetics are demonstrated with selected examples. Moreover, challenges and research directions in this field are also highlighted.

Abstract
Characterized by an excessively increased uric acid (UA) level in serum, hyperuricemia induces gout and also poses a great threat to renal and cardiovascular systems. It is urgent and meaningful to perform early warning by noninvasive diagnosis, thus conducing to blockage of disease aggravation. Here, guanidinocalix[5]arene (GC5A) is successfully identified from the self-built macrocyclic library to specifically monitor UA from urine by the indicator displacement assay. UA is strongly bound to GC5A at micromolar-level, while simultaneously excluding fluorescein (Fl) from the GC5A·Fl complex in the "switch-on" mode. This method successfully differentiates patients with hyperuricemia from volunteers except for those with kidney dysfunction and targets a volunteer at high risk of hyperuricemia. In order to meet the trend from hospital-centered to individual-centered testing, visual detection of UA is studied through a smartphone equipped with a color-scanning feature, whose adaptability and feasibility are demonstrated in sensing UA from authentic urine, leading to a promising method in family-centered healthcare style. A high-throughput and visual detection method is provided here for alarming hyperuricemic by noninvasive diagnosis.

Abstract
We review here the use of container molecules known as cavitands for performing organic reactions in water. Central to these endeavors are binding forces found in water, and among the strongest of these is the hydrophobic effect. We describe how the hydrophobic effect can be used to drive organic molecule guests into the confined space of cavitand hosts. Other forces participating in guest binding include cation-π interactions, chalcogen bonding and even hydrogen bonding to water involved in the host structure. The reactions of guests take advantage of their contortions in the limited space of the cavitands which enhance macrocyclic and site-selective processes. The cavitands are applied to the removal of organic pollutants from water and to the separation of isomeric guests. Progress is described on maneuvering the containers from stoichiometric participation to roles as catalysts.

Abstract
The construction of water-soluble synthetic hosts with a stimuli-responsive endo-functionalized cavity is challenging. These hosts feature a switchable cavity and may bring new properties to the fields of self-assembly, molecular machines, and biomedical sciences. Herein, we report a pair of water-soluble naphthotubes with a pH-responsive endo-functionalized cavity. The inward-directing secondary amine group of the hosts can be protonated and deprotonated. Thus, the hosts have different cavity features at the two states and show drastically different binding preference and selectivity in water. We reveal that the binding difference of the two host states is originated from the differences in charge repulsion, hydrogen bonding and the hydrophobic effects. Moreover, the guest binding can be easily switched in a ternary mixture with two guest molecules by adjusting the pH value of the solution. These pH-responsive hosts may be used for the construction of smart self-assembly systems and water-soluble molecular machines.

Abstract
Molecular recognition processes in water differ from those in organic solvents in that they are mediated to a much greater extent by solvent effects. The hydrophobic effect, for example, causes molecules that only weakly interact in organic solvents to stay together in water. Such water‐mediated interactions can be very efficient as demonstrated by many of the synthetic receptors discussed in this review, some of which have substrate affinities matching or even surpassing those of natural binders. However, in spite of considerable success in designing such receptors, not all factors determining their binding properties in water are fully understood. Existing concepts still provide plausible explanations why the reorganization of water molecules often causes receptor‐substrate interactions in water to be strongly exothermic rather than entropically favored as predicted by the classical view of the hydrophobic effect.

Abstract
Synthetic molecular probes, chemosensors, and nanosensors used in combination with innovative assay protocols hold great potential for the development of robust, low-cost, and fast-responding sensors that are applicable in biofluids (urine, blood, and saliva). Particularly, the development of sensors for metabolites, neurotransmitters, drugs, and inorganic ions is highly desirable due to a lack of suitable biosensors. In addition, the monitoring and analysis of metabolic and signaling networks in cells and organisms by optical probes and chemosensors is becoming increasingly important in molecular biology and medicine. Thus, new perspectives for personalized diagnostics, theranostics, and biochemical/medical research will be unlocked when standing limitations of artificial binders and receptors are overcome. In this review, we survey synthetic sensing systems that have promising (future) application potential for the detection of small molecules, cations, and anions in aqueous media and biofluids. Special attention was given to sensing systems that provide a readily measurable optical signal through dynamic covalent chemistry, supramolecular host-guest interactions, or nanoparticles featuring plasmonic effects. This review shall also enable the reader to evaluate the current performance of molecular probes, chemosensors, and nanosensors in terms of sensitivity and selectivity with respect to practical requirement, and thereby inspiring new ideas for the development of further advanced systems.

Abstract
Selective molecular recognition in water is the foundation of numerous biological functions but is a challenge for most synthetic hosts. We employ the concept of endo-functionalized cavity and the strategy of simultaneous construction to address this issue. The concept and the strategy were demonstrated in the construction of a biomimetic host for selectively recognizing quinones in water. The host was synthesized by joining two pieces of bent anthracene dimer through amide bond formation, affording a deep hydrophobic cavity and inward-directing hydrogen bonding sites. The host can recognize quinones over their close analogues in water, and its association affinity to p-benzoquinone is the highest among all the known hosts and is even comparable to that of the bioreceptor. The binding with an anthraquinone reaches nanomolar affinity. Shielded hydrogen bonding, C-H⋅⋅⋅π, and charge transfer interactions, and the hydrophobic effect are responsible for the high binding affinity and selectivity.

Abstract
We report the synthesis and characterization of two water-soluble container compounds (cavitand hosts) with rigidified open ends. One cavitand uses four (CH2)4's as spacers to bridge the adjacent walls, while another cavitand uses four CH2CH2OCH2CH2's bridges and features a wider open end. The spacers preorganize the deep cavitands into vase-like, receptive shapes and prevent their unfolding to the unreceptive kite-like conformation. Cycloalkane guests (C6-C8) and small n-alkanes (C5-C7) form 1:1 complexes with the cavitands and move freely in the cavitands' spaces. Hydrophilic compounds 1,4-dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, tetrahydropyran, pyridine, and 1-methylimidazole also showed good binding affinity to the new cavitands. Longer alkanes (C11-C14) and n-alcohols (C11-C16) are taken up with a -CH3 group fixed at the bottom of the cavity and the groups near the rim in compressed conformations. The methylene bridges appear to divide the cavitand into a narrow hydrophobic compartment and a broader space with exposure to the aqueous medium. Longer alkane guests (C15-C18), N,N-dimethyldioctylammonium, and dioctylamine induce the formation of capsules (2:1 host:guest complexes). The new cavitands showed selectivity for p/m-cresol isomers and xylene isomers. The cavitand with CH2CH2OCH2CH2 bridges bound long-chain α,ω-diols (C13-C15) and diamines in folded, U-shaped conformations with polar functions exposed to the aqueous medium. It was used to separate o-xylene from its isomers by using simple extraction procedures.

Abstract
The need to obtain enantiomerically pure isomers of amino acids and peptides is often realized in the field of biology and in the pharmaceutical industry. Research is underway to devise simple methods for the chiral resolution of amino acids from their racemic mixtures. Inspired by this objective, in our present work, we have computationally shown the possibility of chiral separation of the enantiomeric pairs of two model peptides, namely, (D,L)-aspargine and (D,L)-phenylalanine, in the presence of water. For this purpose, we have used two synthetic supramolecular receptors named host-1a and host-1b, respectively. Molecular dynamics simulations and quantum chemical methods are employed to analyze the structural features and the energy aspects involved in the separation process. The information obtained at the molecular level helps us gain better insights into the key interactions that operate to produce such enantioselectivity. We have also investigated the dynamics and changes in the water structure in the vicinity of the host molecules, both in the presence and absence of the model peptides. The D- and L-isomers of the same peptide undergo complexation with a particular host molecule registering a difference of more than 1.5 kcal mol-1 (obtained from PMF and MM-PBSA analyses) in their respective energies. This indicates that the chiral separation of the peptides with the help of these endo-fuctionalized molecular tube receptors may be energetically feasible. The connection between the peptide stereochemistry and its interaction with the endo-functionalized hosts would be instrumental in designing novel segregation techniques that can be further extended to separate larger model peptides or proteins.

Abstract
One major problem in the pharmaceutical industry is the aqueous solubility of newly developed orally administered drug candidates. More than 50% of newly developed drug molecules suffer from low aqueous solubility. The therapeutic effects of drug molecules are majorly dependent on the bioavailability and, in essence, on the solubility of the used drug molecules. Thus, enhancement of drug solubility of sparingly soluble drug molecules is a need of modern times. Considering the high importance of drug solubility, we have computationally shown the enhancement of drug solubility for seven class II (poorly water-soluble) drug molecules in a water medium. The uses of supramolecular macrocycles have immense importance in the same field. Thus, we have used two synthetic supramolecular receptors named host-1a and host-1b to enhance the water solubility of fluorouracil, albendazole, camptothecin, clopidogrel, indomethacin, melphalan, and tolfenamic acid drug molecules. Biomedical engagements of a supramolecular receptor commence with the formation of stable host-drug complexes. These complexations enhance the water solubility of drug molecules and sustain the release rate and bioavailability of drug molecules. Thus, in this work, we focus on the formation of stable host-drug complexes in water medium. Molecular dynamics simulation is applied to analyze the structural features and the energetics involved in the host-drug complexation process. The information obtained at the atomistic level helps us gain better insights into the key interactions that operate to produce such highly stable complexes. Thus, we can propose that these two supramolecular receptors may be used as drug solubilizing agents, and patients will benefit from this theragnostic application shortly.

Translocation of Endo-Functionalized Molecular Tubes across Different Lipid Bilayers: Atomistic Molecular Dynamics Simulation Study.

Abstract
Various artificial receptors, such as calixarenes, cyclodextrins, cucurbit[n]urils, and their acyclic compounds, pliiar[n]arenes, deep cavitands, and molecular tweezers, can permeate the lipid membranes and they are used as drug carriers to improve the drug solubility, stability, and bioavailability. Inspired by these, we have employed atomistic molecular dynamics simulation to examine the effects of endo-functionalized molecular tubes or naphthotubes (host-1a and host-1b) on seven different types of model lipid bilayers and the permeation properties of these receptors through these model lipid bilayers. Lipid types include six model lipid bilayers (POPC, POPE, DOPC, POPG, DPPE, POPE/POPG) and one realistic membrane (Yeast). We observe that these receptors are spontaneously translocated toward these model lipid bilayer head regions and do not proceed further into these lipid bilayer tail regions (reside at the interface between lipid head and lipid tail region), except for the DPPE-containing systems. In the DPPE model lipid bilayer-containing systems (1a-dppe and 1b-dppe), receptor molecules are only adsorbed on the bilayer surface and reside at the interface between lipid head and water. This finding is also supported by the biased free-energy profiles of these translocation processes. Passive transport of these receptors may be possible through these model lipid bilayers (due to low barrier height), except for DPPE bilayer-containing systems (that have a very high energy barrier at the center). The results from these simulations provide insight into the biocompatibility of host-1a or host-1b in microscopic detail. Based on this work, more research is needed to fully comprehend the role of these synthesized receptors as a prospective drug carrier.

Abstract
Development of a versatile, sustainable and efficient photosynthesis system that integrates intricate catalytic networks and energy modules at the same location is of considerable future value to energy transformation. In the present study, we develop a coenzyme-mediated supramolecular host-guest semibiological system that combines artificial and enzymatic catalysis for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from alcohol dehydrogenation. This approach involves modification of the microenvironment of a dithiolene-embedded metal-organic cage to trap an organic dye and NADH molecule simultaneously, serving as a hydrogenase analogue to induce effective proton reduction inside the artificial host. This abiotic photocatalytic system is further embedded into the pocket of the alcohol dehydrogenase to couple enzymatic alcohol dehydrogenation. This host-guest approach allows in situ regeneration of NAD+/NADH couple to transfer protons and electrons between the two catalytic cycles, thereby paving a unique avenue for a synergic combination of abiotic and biotic synthetic sequences for photocatalytic fuel and chemical transformation. Abiotic–biotic hybrid systems are promising to trap light for fuel and chemical transformation with high efficacy and selectivity. This study reports a coenzyme-mediated supramolecular host-guest semibiological system combining supramolecular catalyst and enzymes for solar alcohol splitting.

Abstract
The cation-π interaction and the hydrophobic effect are important intermolecular forces in chemistry and play major roles in controlling recognition in biological systems. We compared their relative contributions to the binding of molecular "dumbbell" guests in synthetic container hosts in water. The guests offered direct, intramolecular competition between trimethylammonium groups, -N+(CH3)3, and tert-butyl groups, -C(CH3)3, for the internal surfaces (aromatic panels) of the containers. In contrast with previous studies, the container molecules consistently preferred binding to the uncharged tert-butyl groups, regardless of the presence of anionic, cationic, or zwitterionic groups on the container peripheries. This preference is determined by solvation of the polar trimethylammonium group in water, which outcompetes the attraction between the positive charge and the π-surfaces in the container. The synthetic container complexes provide a direct measure of the relative strengths of cation-π interactions and desolvation in water. Interactions with the uncharged tert-butyl group are more than 12 kJ mol-1 more favorable than the cation-π interactions with the trimethylammonium group in these cavitand complexes.

Abstract
We describe new container host molecules - deep cavitands with benzimidazole walls and ionic feet - to recognize highly hydrophilic guest molecules in water. The aromatic surfaces of the cavity recognize hydrophobic portions of the guest while bound water molecules mediate hydrogen bonding in the complex. Spectroscopic (NMR) evidence indicates slow in/out exchange on the chemical shift timescale and thermodynamic (ITC) methods show large association constants (Ka up to 6 × 104 M-1) for complexation of small, water-soluble molecules such as THF and dioxane. Quantum chemical calculations are employed to optimize the host-guest geometries and elucidate the hydrogen bonding patterns responsible for the binding.

Abstract
Fluorescence-detected circular dichroism (FDCD) spectroscopy is applied for the first time to supramolecular host-guest and host-protein systems and compared to the more known electronic circular dichroism (ECD). We find that FDCD can be an excellent choice for common supramolecular applications, e.g. for the detection and chirality sensing of chiral organic analytes, as well as for reaction monitoring. Our comprehensive investigations demonstrate that FDCD can be conducted in favorable circumstances at much lower concentrations than ECD measurements, even in chromophoric and auto-emissive biofluids such as blood serum, overcoming the sensitivity limitation of absorbance-based chiroptical spectroscopy. Besides, the combined use of FDCD and ECD can provide additional valuable information about the system, e.g. the chemical identity of an analyte or hidden aggregation phenomena. We believe that simultaneous FDCD- and ECD-based chiroptical characterization of emissive supramolecular systems will be of general benefit for characterizing fluorescent, chiral supramolecular systems due to the higher information content obtained by their combined use.

Effective and Rapid Removal of Polar Organic Micropollutants from Water by Amide Naphthotube-Crosslinked Polymers. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2021; 60:21404-21411.

Abstract
It is challenging to remove polar organic micropollutants from water through adsorption-mediated processes. Macrocycle-crosslinked polymers were recently shown to be effective adsorbents for nonpolar or charged organic micropollutants through specific host-guest binding, but are rarely used for the treatment of neutral and polar organic micropollutants. This is due to the challenge of recognizing polar molecules in water by macrocyclic hosts. In this research, we report two amide naphthotube-crosslinked polymers which can effectively and rapidly adsorb a wide scope of polar organic micropollutants from water through biomimetic molecular recognition. Amide naphthotubes possess hydrogen bonding sites in their deep hydrophobic cavities and can effectively bind polar organic micropollutants in water through the hydrophobic effects and shielded hydrogen bonds. The cross-linked polymers containing amide naphthotubes are even able to remove a complex mixture of organic micropollutants from water and the used materials can be easily regenerated through washing with MeOH or EtOH. This research provides a solution for the treatment of polar organic micropollutants by using biomimetic molecular recognition in water.

Abstract
Selective molecular recognition of hydrophilic guests in water plays a fundamental role in a vast number of biological processes, but synthetic mimicry of biomolecular recognition in water still proves challenging both in terms of achieving comparable affinities and selectivities. This Review highlights strategies that have been developed in the field of supramolecular chemistry to selectively and non-covalently bind three classes of biologically relevant molecules: nucleotides, carbohydrates, and amino acids. As several groups have systematically modified receptors for a specific guest, an evolutionary perspective is also provided in some cases. Trends in the most effective binding forces for each class are described, providing insight into selectivity and potential directions for future work.

Abstract
Molecular recognition in water using macrocyclic synthetic receptors constitutes a vibrant and timely research area of supramolecular chemistry. Pioneering examples on the topic date back to the 1980s. The investigated model systems and the results derived from them are key for furthering our understanding of the remarkable properties exhibited by proteins: high binding affinity, superior binding selectivity, and extreme catalytic performance. Dissecting the different effects contributing to the proteins' properties is severely limited owing to its complex nature. Molecular recognition in water is also involved in other appreciated areas such as self-assembly, drug discovery, and supramolecular catalysis. The development of all these research areas entails a deep understanding of the molecular recognition events occurring in aqueous media. In this review, we cover the past three decades of molecular recognition studies of neutral and charged, polar and nonpolar organic substrates and ions using selected artificial receptors soluble in water. We briefly discuss the intermolecular forces involved in the reversible binding of the substrates, as well as the hydrophobic and Hofmeister effects operating in aqueous solution. We examine, from an interdisciplinary perspective, the design and development of effective water-soluble synthetic receptors based on cyclic, oligo-cyclic, and concave-shaped architectures. We also include selected examples of self-assembled water-soluble synthetic receptors. The catalytic performance of some of the presented receptors is also described. The latter process also deals with molecular recognition and energetic stabilization, but instead of binding ground-state species, the targets become elusive counterparts: transition states and other high-energy intermediates.

The thermodynamically unstable, colourless closed-ring isomer of spiropyran can be stabilized in water by the anti-configurational isomer of amide naphthotube. The influence of the binding on the thermodynamics and kinetics of spiropyran have been studied.

Abstract
Host-guest interactions between naphthalene-based molecular tubes and small molecules have been studied to understand selective recognition. However, the volumetric properties of complexation remain largely unknown. In this study, we investigated the volumetric properties for the binding of 1,4-dioxane to a pair of naphthotubes (i.e., anti- and syn-isomers), each possessing two inwardly directed amide groups in the hydrophobic cavity, using nuclear magnetic resonance and fluorescence spectroscopy coupled with pressure perturbation. We found that the partial molar volume change for the association of 1,4-dioxane with the naphthotube was -6.3 ± 0.1 mL/mol for the anti-isomer and 3.2 ± 0.4 mL/mol for the syn-isomer. Moreover, the hydrogen bonds of the naphthotubes with 1,4-dioxane were less compressible than those with water molecules, indicating that more rigid hydrogen bonds existed in the complexes with 1,4-dioxane. Molecular dynamics simulations showed that one opening of the cavity in the syn-isomer was widened because of the repulsion between the four COO- charges, which allowed more water molecules to access the hydrophobic cavity than in the case of the anti-isomer. The difference in the partial molar volume change was explained by variations in the hydration of naphthotube hydrophobic cavities. The enhanced understanding of the molecular basis of volume changes during 1,4-dioxane-naphthotube complexation may provide insights into ligand binding to bioreceptors.

Abstract
Energy-saving separation and purification of industrially important compounds with similar physical and chemical properties by novel molecular crystalline materials are of great importance and highly desired. Here a newly enlarged version of geminiarene, namely elongated-geminiarene (ElGA), is first designed and synthesized. Taking advantages of both geminiarenes and biphenarenes, ElGA shows great features including scalable synthesis, nanometer-sized cavity, rich blend of conformational features, and excellent solid-state host-guest properties. Significantly, the functional crystalline materials of ElGA are highly effective in the separation of aromatics and cyclic aliphatics, showing a preference for dimethylbenzene over its corresponding hydrogenation products and paving a new avenue for separation science and industry.
