Polyaromatic molecular tubes: from strategic synthesis to host functions
Keyword(s):
This feature article describes the recent progress in the synthesis and application of short tubular molecules bearing multiple (≥3) polyaromatic rings (e.g., anthracene, pyrene, chrysene, anthanthrenylene, and HBC). These polyaromatic tubes display characteristic properties such as strong fluorescent emission, a selective molecular binding ability, efficient host–guest energy transfer and open–closed structural transformations.
