Abstract

Several modes of supramolecular assembly relying on noncovalent as well as dynamic covalent interactions were combined in a single molecule. The supramolecular self-assembly of 1 can be controlled by three stimuli, namely light, pH, and addition of metal ions, in both organic and aqueous media. The multi-stimuli-responsive nature of 1 was used successfully for the controlled encapsulation and on-demand release of hydrophobic molecules, such as dyes and drugs.
