Polymer self-assembly has been a hot research topic for several decades. Different types of polymers with various architectures, like block copolymers, brush polymers, hyperbranched polymers and dendrimers, etc., are currently being investigated. Alternating copolymers (ACPs) are regular copolymers with an alternating monomeric unit structure in the polymer backbones. However, despite the great progress in the synthesis of ACPs, their self-assembly is still in an infant stage. Very recently, our group reported a new type of amphiphilic ACPs through click copolymerization and obtained spheres, vesicles, nanotubes, and even hierarchical sea urchin-like aggregates through the self-assembly process. In addition, we have found some intriguing features in the self-assembly of amphiphilic ACPs when compared with other copolymers, including their facile syntheses, readily functionalization, novel self-assembly structures, new folding-chain mechanisms, and uniform but ultrathin feature length. In this Concept article, we present the self-assembly of amphiphilic ACPs together with their unique features by reviewing our latest results and related studies. Moreover, the future perspective on the self-assembly of amphiphilic ACPs is also proposed. Our aim is to capture the attention and interest of chemists in this new area of polymerization.
