In the past three decades, chemistry has changed from focusing on a single molecule to
molecular assemblies. Through the discovery of macrocycles, the chemistry of molecular …

Recently, supramolecular chemistry has been expanding to supramolecular polymer
chemistry. The combination of cyclic molecules and linear polymers has provided many …

The syntheses of the heptaamino acid-substituted β-cyclodextrins per-6-[(phenylalanyl)
amino]-β-cyclodextrin (6), per-6-cysteinyl-β-cyclodextrin (7), as well as the per-2, 3-dimethyl …

Bacillus subtilis produces many chemically-diverse secondary metabolites of interest to
chemists and biologists. Based on this, this review gives a detailed overview of the natural …

Cyclic dipeptides (CDPs) are heterocyclic 2, 5‐diketopiperazines with exceptional structural
rigidity, enzymatic stability, and biological activity, exhibiting a substantial tendency to take …

Cyclodextrins (CDs) are cyclic oligomers of α-1, 4-linked D-glucopyranose. Due to their
unique structure, marked by a chiral and hydrophobic cavity, CDs have been extensively …

Supramolecular polymers were prepared by inclusion of a guest in cyclodextrin via a
covalent bond. The structures of the supramolecular oligomers and polymers were …

A monofunctionalized β‐cyclodextrin containing a dansyl moiety, 6‐deoxy‐6‐N‐(N′‐(5‐
dimethylamino‐1‐naphthalenesulfonyl) diaminoethane)‐β‐cyclodextrin (CD‐en‐DNS, 2) …

Monosaccharides and amino acids are fundamental building blocks in the assembly of
nature's polymers. They have different structural aspects and, to a significant extent, different …

Carnosine (β-alanyl-L-histidine) is an endogenous dipeptide widely and abundantly
distributed in muscle and nervous tissues of several animal species. Many functions have …
