Metal Nanoparticles and Supramolecular Macrocycles: A Tale of Synergy
View through CrossRef
AbstractIn this minireview, we summarize current research dealing with the combination of noble‐metal nanoparticles and different families of supramolecular macrocycles (cyclodextrins, cucurbit[n]urils, calixarenes, and pillar[n]arenes). We intended to select relevant publications on the synthesis of noble‐metal nanoparticles with macrocycles acting as capping agents or/and reducing agents, as well as on the post‐synthetic metal‐nanoparticle modification with macrocycles. We also discuss strategies in which supramolecular chemistry is applied to direct the self‐assembly of nanoparticles and formation of polymer composites. We finally describe the main applications of these materials in various fields.
