Supramolecular Chemistry: Conjugated Macrocycle Polymer Nanoparticles with Alternating Pillarenes and Porphyrins as Struts and Cyclic Nodes (Small 12/2019)

In article number 1805509, Ying-Wei Yang and co-workers construct conjugated macrocycle polymer nanoparticles consisting of dual macrocyclic rings, i.e., pillarenes and porphyrins, as alternating strut/node components in the skeleton, followed by the immobilization of Pd nanoparticles via a simple post-treatment method. The resulting composite nanomaterials exhibit excellent stability, remarkable catalytic activity, and easy recyclability in Suzuki–Miyaura coupling and nitrophenol reduction.
