This paper is dedicated to Prof Wei Jiang of SUSTech 南方科技大学, who passed away on the Christmas Day of 2022. Jiang Group@SUSTech also demonstrated the separation of cyclohexene/cyclohexane using the famous “naphthotube”

Three weaves consisting identical composition are used to theoretically probe the effects of weaving patterns on properties of 2D woven fabrics. The model would be valuable for future engineering of molecular weaving! A preprint is now posted ChemRxiv chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

Thanks Yuya Domoto and Cougnon Lab for writing up highlights about our recent J. Am. Chem. Soc. paper on Chem and Sci. China Chem. Even better than what I wrote in the paper!

Our paper has just appeared in Chem. Asian J. Asian Chemical Editorial Society (ACES) !! Fine-Tuning of the Sequential Self-Assembly of Entangled Polyhedra by Exploiting the Side-Chain Effect aces.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/as… #coordination #polyhedra

First paper of 2025 and one of my all-time favorites! Topology deserves a place in graduate education. In memory @sirfrasersrays, (also big thanks to my mentor Dave Leigh) who pioneered the field of Molecular Nanotechnology. Your legacy lives on! doi.org/10.1021/acs.jc…

Exciting work from Leigh and Giuseppone Chemistry Research Group, congrats to you all!

We are recruiting!!! One fully funded position for PhD student (48 months) is available under the Preludium BIS NCN grant. The selected candidate will conduct research on the use of iminopyrrole self-assembly for constructing new cages and macrocycles. More information:

Lovely conversation with Rebecca Trager about this wonderful series report! Her dedication and hard work truly shine through. Thanks a lot for all your efforts! Also, a big shoutout to Chemistry World for the continuous coverage of our journey 🥳

An incredible honor to receive award! Thank you so much to the committee, friends, collaborators and Supramolecular Chemistry for recognizing my work. Thrilled to share this achievement with my friend Qing He. Look forward to meeting you all in ISMSC2025, Kyoto

Six decades after the landmark discovery of crown ethers, we proudly introduce CrownBind-IA, a machine learning model that accurately predicting binding constants between crown ethers and alkali metal ions. We are harnessing AI to tackle challenges in supramolecular chemistry.

Excellent idea with fantastic structures! Congrats Zhichang and his team!
