Abstract

Calix[5]arenes have drawn attention due to their encapsulation capability for fullerenes. The high binding affinity between calix[5]arene and fullerene has enabled the development of various kinds of supramolecular fullerene polymers (such as linear fullerene polymers, helical fullerene polymers, and two-dimensionally extended fullerene networks) and the structural regulation of covalent polymers. Herein, supramolecular ensembles formed via calix[5]arene-fullerene complexation are reviewed in detail. More information can be found in the Review by Takehiro Hirao and Takeharu Haino.
