The cation-π interaction is a crucial noncovalent binding force prevalent in many biological and chemical systems, however, are rarely reported in chiral supramolecular systems. Here, a supramolecular chiral system is reported, wherein cation-π interaction play significant roles. The interaction involves a chiral cationic palladium complex (R-Pd) co-assembling with 12 different polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), resulting in the formation of supramolecular gels in mixed solvents.

Self-assembly of coinage metal nanoclusters constitutes an important branch for the construction of bright luminescent materials. They also serve as a class of promising building blocks for the study of hierarchically organized assemblies due to their potential of generating high structural complexity. However, the strong intercluster interactions exert great difficulty and uncertainty on the modulation of the outcome aggregation structures.

Shape memory polymers (SMPs) with remotely controllable triggering capabilities are crucial for actuating applications in biomedical and aeronautic devices. This work presents a novel ionomer/carbon nanotube (CNT) composite network with exceptional remotely controllable shape memory effects (SMEs) and self-healing capabilities. By integrating quaternary ammonium (QA) units covalently bonded to crystalline polycaprolactone (PCL) segments through a chain extension reaction, we not only enabled the formation of ion clusters that act as netpoints in PCLQA ionomers to achieve superior SMEs, but also facilitated the generation of cation-π interactions when the multiresponsive CNTs were incorporated into the PCLQA ionomer matrix.

Lithium-sulfur (Li/S) batteries are emerging as a next-generation energy storage technology due to their high theoretical energy density and cost-effectiveness. π-Conjugated organosulfur polymers, such as poly(4-(thiophene-3-yl)benzenethiol) (PTBT), have shown promise in overcoming challenges such as the polysulfide shuttle effect by providing a conductive framework and enabling sulfur copolymerization. In these cathodes, cation-π interactions significantly influence Li diffusion and storage properties in π-conjugated cathodes, but classical OPLS-AA force fields fail to capture these effects.
