Abstract
Kids ride on macrocycles sliding down a water slide that represents the rotaxane thread. Gates marked “base” and “fluoride” open to release the macrocycles, shown by the kids sliding down. The “acid” and “CuAAC” gates allow the kids to climb back up the stairs and slide again, symbolizing how the macrocycles are recaptured. This playful scene highlights the controlled release and recapture of the macrocycle enabled by chemical stimuli. More information can be found in the Research Article by S. Kundu, J. Niemeyer and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/chem.202501106).
孩子们骑着大自行车从代表轮烷线的水滑梯上滑下来。标有“碱基”和“氟化物”的门打开,释放出宏观循环,孩子们滑下来。“酸”和“CuAAC”门允许孩子们爬回楼梯并再次滑动,象征着如何重新获得宏观循环。这个有趣的场景强调了化学刺激所能控制的大循环的释放和重新捕获。更多信息可以在S. Kundu, J. Niemeyer及其同事的研究文章中找到(DOI: 10.1002/chem.202501106)。
期刊介绍:
Chemistry—A European Journal is a truly international journal with top quality contributions (2018 ISI Impact Factor: 5.16). It publishes a wide range of outstanding Reviews, Minireviews, Concepts, Full Papers, and Communications from all areas of chemistry and related fields.
Based in Europe Chemistry—A European Journal provides an excellent platform for increasing the visibility of European chemistry as well as for featuring the best research from authors from around the world.
All manuscripts are peer-reviewed, and electronic processing ensures accurate reproduction of text and data, plus short publication times.
The Concepts section provides nonspecialist readers with a useful conceptual guide to unfamiliar areas and experts with new angles on familiar problems.
Chemistry—A European Journal is published on behalf of ChemPubSoc Europe, a group of 16 national chemical societies from within Europe, and supported by the Asian Chemical Editorial Societies. The ChemPubSoc Europe family comprises: Angewandte Chemie, Chemistry—A European Journal, European Journal of Organic Chemistry, European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, ChemPhysChem, ChemBioChem, ChemMedChem, ChemCatChem, ChemSusChem, ChemPlusChem, ChemElectroChem, and ChemistryOpen.
