Density functional theory (DFT) calculations with dispersion corrections elucidated the key factors for determining the arrangement of π-conjugated oligomers inside a carbon nanotube. The current study considered methyl-terminated terfurans as guests inside a host tube; the results were compared with those obtained in previous studies for methyl-terminated terthiophenes inside a nanotube. DFT c...

Supramolecular polymers constructed by orthogonal self-assembly based on host-guest and metal-ligand interactions are attracting increasing attention currently because of their interesting properties and potential applications. Host-guest interactions impart these polymers with good selectivity and convenient enviro-responsiveness, and metal-ligand interactions endow them with various coordinat...

Synthetic host-guest chemistry is a versatile tool for biomedical applications. Characterization and detection of host-guest complexes in biological systems, however, is challenging due to the complexity of the biological milieu. Here, we describe and apply a mass spectrometric method to monitor the association and dissociation of nanoparticle (NP)-based host-guest interactions that integrates ...

Host–guest chemistry encompasses the study of highly structured molecular complexes composed of at least two entities associated by noncovalent interactions, one possessing convergent binding sites, the host, and another possessing divergent binding sites, the guest. Among other species, the host can be a crown ether, calixarene, or metallacycle, whereas the guest can be virtually any small-tom...

New host-guest materials have been prepared by incorporation of a home-made organic probe displaying a pyrene motif and a phosphonate function into a regular amphiphilic copolymer. Using powder X-Ray diffraction, photoluminescence and FT-IR spectroscopy, we have been able to study the non-covalent interactions between the host matrix and the guest molecule in the solid state. Interestingly, we ...
