Determination of molecular structural parameters o f hydrophobic cholesterol-naphthalimide conjugates for water binding capabilities as well as their moisture-sensitive supramolecular self-assembly were revealed. Water binding was a key factor in leading trace water-induced crystallization against gelation in apolar solvent. Ordered water molecules entrapped in self-assembly arrays revealed by crystal structures behave as hydrogen-bonding linkers to facilitate three-dimensional growth into crystals rather than one-dimensional gel rumofibers. Water binding was also reflected on the supramolecular chirality inversion of vesicle self-assembly in aqueous media via heating-induced dehydration. Structural parameters that favor water binding were evaluated in detail, which could help rationally design organic building units for advancing soft materials, crystal engineering, and chiral recognition.
