Abstract

Molecules putting on sleeveless shirts: Porphyrins with four sufficiently long PEG chains can form 1:1 supramolecular inclusion complexes with a 3,3’-linked cyclodextrin dimer in water through a molecular threading process. This phenomenon is similar to the action of putting on a sleeveless shirt, don't you think? More information can be found in the Research Article by Q. Mao and H. Kitagishi (DOI: 10.1002/chem.202300408). Artwork by Nobuyuki Goto (art director) and Ryoko Sekimoto (illustrator) from PEACE PiECE.
