A novel coordination compound, {[Cd(BDC)(Bpybc)(1.5)].10H(2)O}(n), obtained by the reaction of CdCl(2) with 1,1'-bis(4-carboxybenzyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium dichloride (H(2)BpybcCl(2)) and 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid (H(2)BDC), contains 1D polymeric chains that are comprised of alternating rings and rods and dangling lateral arms. These 1D polymeric motifs are interlaced via rotaxane-like mechanical linkages to give 2D armed-polyrotaxane sheets, which are further mutually polythreaded via pseudorotaxane-like mechanical linkages to form a 3D polypseudorotaxane array. Notably, a sandwich-type donor-acceptor-donor stacking is formed within each ring as a consequence of both types of polythreading in this species, and photoinduced and thermal-induced reduction of bipyridinium occurs with a color change from light yellow to blue.

Supramolecular flexible electronic devices are one of the research hotspots due to their application in the fields of chemistry, biology, and materials. Herein, we reported a slide-ring supramolecular flexible electronic device, which is constructed by acrylamide (AAm), acrylic acid (AA), carboxymethyl-α-cyclodextrin (CM-α-CD), PEG diacrylate (PEGDA), and calcium chloride via the photoinitiated polymerization, displaying not only the mechanical force-responded self-generation but also the human-computer information transfer. As compared with the polymer hydrogel, the addition of α-CD polypseudorotaxane to the hydrogel has notably enhanced both the tensile length and the tensile toughness, making it more suitable for flexible electronic device applications.

Hydrogel biomaterials are pervasive in biomedical use. Applications of these soft materials range from contact lenses to drug depots to scaffolds for transplanted cells. A subset of hydrogels is prepared from physical cross-linking mediated by host-guest interactions.

Three cyclodextrin-based complexes, 1-3, bearing external coordination sites for metal cations were prepared in satisfactory yields (over 50%) by reactions of alpha-, beta-, and gamma-cyclodextrins with 4,4'-dipyridine in aqueous solutions. Subsequently, these inclusion complexes were further assembled to form linear polypseudorotaxanes 4-6 through the coordination linkage of Ni(II) or Cu(II) ions, and their assembly behaviors were comprehensively investigated in both solutions and the solid state by means of 1H NMR, FT-IR, UV-vis spectroscopy, conductivity titration, powder X-ray diffraction patterning, thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis, scanning electron microscopy, scanning tunneling microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The results showed that these polypseudorotaxanes existed as individual linear arrays at a low concentration but tended to form polymeric rodlike fibers at a relatively high concentration.
