Abstract

: Self-assembly,self-organization and self-replication,that are central to nature's forms and functions,are now becoming feasible to construct large and intricate,yet highly ordered functioning molecular and supramolecular entities.This paper introduced the recently new progress for a kind of special rotaxane and catenane supramoculars having functions of molecular shuttle or molecular switch,as well as the chemical and biological systems toward molecular machines and motors.
