Supra‐Amphiphiles for Functional Assemblies

Supra‐amphiphiles refer to amphiphiles which are fabricated on the basis of various noncovalent interactions and dynamic covalent bonds, including host‐guest interaction, charge‐transfer interaction, electrostatic interaction, imine bonds, etc. In this feature article, recent progresses of supra‐amphiphiles from molecular architecture to functional assemblies will be summarized. A few topics will be specially addressed, including where supra‐amphipihles functions as surfactants, and also in the areas of chemical analysis, nanocarriers, photodynamic therapy, surface modification and catalysis.
