We report the fabrication of pillar[5]arene (P[5]A) stabilized MCs via the self-assembly and crosslinking of P[5]A nanoaggregates at the liquid–liquid interface. These P[5]A MCs microengines turn on fluid flow in the presence of paraquat (PQ) due to host–guest molecular recognition.

There are two molecular processes that are essential for living bodies to maintain their life: the molecular recognition, and the self-organization or self-assembly. Binding of a substrate by an enzyme is an example of the molecular recognition, while the protein folding is a good example of the self-organization process. The two processes are further governed by the other two physicochemical processes: solvation and the structural fluctuation. In the present article, the studies concerning the two molecular processes carried out by Hirata and his coworkers, based on the statistical mechanics of molecular liquids or the RISM/3D-RISM theory, are reviewed.

The self-assembly of three novel lipophilic guanosine derivatives at the solid/liquid interface lead to the generation of either G-ribbons, lamellar G-dimer arrays or the G4 cation-free architectures.

Persulfurated asterisks functionalized with six carboxylic groups form a strongly green phosphorescent coordination polymer upon addition of Pb2+ ions in aqueous solution. The self-assembly process is selective and reversible, enabling Pb2+ sensing with a detection limit of 6.0 × 10−7 M.

ABSTRACTMolecular recognition is central to the self-assembly of catenanes and rotaxanes. The design criteria for efficient formation of these compounds is gradually becoming clear. Selfassembly of mechanically-interlocked compounds is heading apace towards the nanometre scale.

The self-assembly of the terpyridine-based ligand exhibited strong emission in the presence of Zn2+ due to the formation of coordination bonds between the terpyridine moieties and the Zn2+ by the aggregation-induced emission effect.
