Low‐entropy‐penalty synthesis of giant macrocycles for good self‐assembly and emission enhancement

Aggregate
Macrocycles are key tools for molecular recognition and self‐assembly. However, traditionally prevalent macrocyclic compounds exhibit specific cavities with diameters usually less than 1 nm, limiting their range of applications in supramolecular ...

Impact of Threading State on the Mechanics of γ‐Cyclodextrin–Pyrene Gels

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Tuning the threading state of discrete γ‐cyclodextrin (γ‐CD)–pyrene pseudorotaxane crosslinkers controls gel topology and ring mobility. The resulting doubly threaded slide‐ring networks exhibit solvent‐switchable dissipative dynamics, high extensibility, rate‐dependent mechanics, and low hysteresis, revealing how crosslink topology governs macroscopic

Boolean Logic‐Based Control Over Recombinant Protein Biomaterial Degradability and Therapeutic Delivery

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Fully recombinant protein‐based biomaterials execute complex Boolean logic for user‐programmable material degradation and concomitant therapeutic cargo release. Biologics, such as growth factors, can be incorporated within the crosslinkers as “drugamers”, while encapsulated cells can be released according to nested YES/OR/AND‐type logical operations ...

Side‐Chain‐Induced Interlayer Slipping in Metalloporphyrin COFs Enables Microenvironment and Spin‐State Regulation for Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Alkoxy chain length drives a continuous transition from eclipsed AA to a serrated, slipped AA* configuration over Co‐porphyrin COFs. A moderate slip both contracts the pore channel to enrich CO2 and suppress hydrogen evolution, and enhances collective high‐spin of Co sites, which delivers a record CO production rate with high selectivity.

De Novo Discovery of Nonstandard Thioisoindole‐Bridged Bicyclic Peptides Targeting Traf2‐ and NCK‐Interacting Kinase

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
An optimized strategy for the ribosomal synthesis of thioisoindole‐bridged bicyclic (TiB) peptides is incorporated into the RaPID platform, enabling high‐throughput discovery from topologically defined TiB libraries. Proof‐of‐concept selection against TNIK identifies nanomolar‐affinity ligands with inhibitory activity, while x‐ray crystallography ...

Near‐Unity Selectivity Inversion Between CO2 Electroreduction and H2 Evolution via Atomic Coordination Editing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Atomic coordination editing functions as an on/off switch that toggles single‐atom catalysts between CO2 electroreduction and hydrogen evolution. ABSTRACT Precise atomic coordination editing of single‐atom catalysts (SACs) provides an effective strategy to tune their electronic structures and catalytic selectivity. Yet, achieving near‐unity selectivity
