Abstract
Herein, poly(ethylene glycol) and azobenzene are used as thermo- and photo-sensitive unit, respectively; and azobenzene, heptamethylene, and adamantyl are utilized as photo-responsive recognition group, second recognition group, and stopper for α-cyclodextrin to construct a novel dually thermo- and photo-responsive supramolecular system whose phase transition can be regulated by the photo-controlled selective molecular recognition of α-cyclodextrin.
Keywords: Cyclodextrin, inclusion complex, molecular recognition, stimuli responsive, supramolecular system.

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
