Stimuli-Responsive Supramolecular Gels Constructed by Hierarchical Self-Assembly Based on Metal-Ligand Coordination and Host-Guest Recognition

Inside Back Cover: In article number , Yi-Tsu Chan and coworkers report a hierarchical self-assembly approach based on coordination and host-guest chemistry to readily incorporate guest-functionalized metallotriangles into cyclodextrin-containing polymers. The resulting supramolecular gels exhibit multiple stimuli-responsive behaviors derived from dynamic coordination bonds and competitive binding events in the inclusion complexes.
