Abstract
The CD's stuck: Poly(ethylene glycol) chains anchored onto gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are threaded by multiple alpha-cyclodextrin (alpha-CD) rings to form a supramolecular outer layer composed of pseudopolyrotaxane columns perpendicular to the nanoparticle surface. Capping the polymer ends confines alpha-CD on the nanoparticle surface, cross-linking the alpha-CD rings and then removing the AuNP cores produces supramolecular nanocapsules.Entities:
