Abstract
In this paper, we present a comprehensive overview of the supramolecular self-assembly involving cyclodextrins (CDs) and polyoxometalates (POMs). We summarize the recent advancement of the supramolecular system of POM-CD including their structures, functions, and applications. Subsequently, we focus on the self-assembly behavior of CDs and POMs, encompassing the formation of inclusion complexes, host-guest interactions, and the development of hybrid materials. What’s more, we also discussed the remarks on future outlooks and hope that this review will serve as a valuable reference for researchers engaged in the fields of supramolecular/ POM chemistry, materials science, and nanotechnology.
