Abstract
) and planar (arylene-ethynylene macrocycles). We summarize the synthetic methods of each macrocyclic POP in terms of the functions of versatile building blocks. Subsequently, we discuss the performance of macrocyclic POPs in environmental remediation, gas adsorption, heterogeneous catalysis, fluorescence sensing and ionic conduction. Although considerable examples are reported, the development of macrocyclic POPs is still in its infancy. Finally, we propose the underlying challenges and opportunities of macrocycle-based POPs.
