Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.This review summarizes the latest progress of RTP materials with self‐healing and shape–memory functions, in which reversible bonding interactions are the key points. With the careful discussions of the typical strategies and representative works, the intrinsic relationship between dynamic bonding interactions and RTP property is well revealed. Finally,

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 33, 1 September 2026.Catechol‐based annulated aromatics with carbonyl units are ideal ligands for the formation of titanium(IV) containing lithium‐bridged hierarchical helicates. They allow for the first time the use of amide units to obtain the dimeric helicate‐type complexes.

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 47, Issue 17, 4 September 2026.Triacetylated γ‐cyclodextrin incorporated into poly(methyl methacrylate) primarily acted as a rigid filler and reinforced the matrix polymer, with the reinforcement behavior following the Guth–Gold equation. In addition, the glass transition temperature was maintained upon incorporation, indicating that the additive did not plasticize the polymer ...

Photocatalytically Active Mechanically Interlocked Carbon Nanotubes
Small, Volume 22, Issue 51, 11 September 2026.Mechanically interlocked CNTs (MINTs) are studied as heterogeneous photocatalysts. Two different motifs are presented, which own enhanced activity versus homogeneous systems at very low loadings, high TON, excellent recyclability, varied scope and no leaching.
