A new type of amphiphilic pillar[5]arene with excellent surface activity was designed and synthesized successfully. Interestingly, this pillar[5]arene shows controllable self-assembly behaviour in water and can be applied in white-light-emitting systems.

Water-soluble –CH2– bridged acyclic naphthalene oligomers were designed and prepared successfully. Interestingly, they can be used in reversible dispersion of carbon nanotubes in water by changing the pH.
