超分子化学的迷人优势，特别是应用自组装从小的，最好是合成容易获得的分子构建定义的纳米结构，已成为现代化学的一个有前途的领域在过去的几年里。然而，早期工作的主要焦点是基于氢键诱导的自组装，这仅限于非极性有机溶剂。在过去的几年里，该领域开始越来越多地转向在极性溶剂甚至水中获得自组装结构。本教程回顾将讨论在极性溶剂中自组装系统的一些代表性的例子，以说明可以使用的不同概念和策略。我们还将从超分子化学家的角度简要讨论水作为最终质子溶剂的特殊性质，以阐明即使在今天这种溶剂仍然构成的挑战，以获得特定的自组装纳米结构。
The intriguing advantages of supramolecular chemistry and particularly the application of self-assembly for the construction of defined nanostructures from small, preferably synthetically easily accessible molecules has become a promising area of modern chemistry in the last years. However, the main focus of early work was based on H-bond induced self-assembly which is limited to nonpolar organic solvents. In the past years the field started to shift more and more towards obtaining self-assembling architectures in polar solvents and even water. This tutorial review will discuss some representative examples for self-assembling systems in polar solvents in order to illustrate the different concepts and strategies that can be used. We will also briefly discuss the special properties of water as the ultimate protic solvent from the perspective of a supramolecular chemist to elucidate the challenges that this solvent still poses even today to obtain specific self-assembled nanostructures.
