Wen-Wen Xing et al.

Summary: Cascade energy capturers based on supramolecular assembly have attracted great research interest in luminescent materials. A cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8])-encapsulated coumarin-bridged phenylpyridinium salt (G) was reported to form a biaxial polypseudorotaxane (G subset of CB[8]), which not only induced the phosphorescence of the guest G, but also activated the photodimerization of coumarin functional group in the CB[8] cavity (G-dimer subset of CB[8]), resulting in enhanced phosphorescence emission. The system showed potential for targeted imaging in HeLa cells.

Light-Driven Aqueous Dissipative Pseudorotaxanes with Tunable Fluorescence Enabling Deformable Nano-Assemblies

Xiao-Fang Hou et al.

Summary: Here we report light-activated convertible pseudorotaxanes (PRs) that can self-assemble and show tunable fluorescence, enabling deformable nano-assemblies. When exposed to light, a specific combination of molecules transform into a transient form, which can thermally relax to its original form in the dark, accompanied by periodic fluorescence changes. The self-assembly of these PRs leads to the formation of octahedral and spherical nanoparticles, which can be used for dynamic imaging of the Golgi apparatus.
