Abstract
The review discusses the latest advances in the directed synthesis and application of macroheterocyclic compounds in science, engineering and technology, viz. as catalysts for various processes in photo-and electrocatalysis, optical chemosensors for metal cations, selective receptors of organic compounds, inductors and selectors, in nonlinear optics, organic electronics, as magnets, photosensitizers for PDT of a number of oncological diseases and for antimicrobial PDT, etc.
