“…mPAHs have been utilized to reversibly introduce hydrogen bonding between two bases. 32,33 They can also be used to break existing hydrogen bonds by protonating the hydrogen bond acceptor. 27,34 A similar approach has been applied to coordination complexes in recent years.…”

“…This energy conversion mechanism has been utilized to fuel dissipative assemblies with photoenergy. 25–28,32,33,35–37 No chemical waste is generated during the dissipative process and spatial, temporal and intensity control can be easily achieved. Such systems may also be used to mimic the dissipative assemblies sustained by chemical energy as those in living systems because the energy form that directly interacts with the assembly is chemical energy of a high proton concentration.…”

“…It is well-known that the properties of biological systems change with pH. Since mPAHs are capable of changing pH significantly under light, they have found applications in biotechnology and biomedical areas, 32,33,38,46–50 which are described in Section 3. It is worth mentioning that the pH of biological systems is often maintained by pH buffers.…”

Dynamic, dissipative reactions play important roles in biological processes, and emulating such biological processes by artificial circuits and networks is a challenging topic in the area of Systems Chemistry. The present article summarizes efforts to apply the information encoded in the base sequence of nucleic acids to assemble transient, dissipative DNA‐based networks mimicking natural processes. The design principles of the transient nucleic acid‐based systems are introduced. Triggered reaction moduli lead to a transient intermediary constituent recovered to the parent moduli by enzymes, DNAzyme, or light as control units are described. Transient DNA‐based circuitries of enhanced complexities revealing temporal gated or cascaded transformations are demonstrated. Different applications of dynamically triggered transient circuits are introduced, including the temporal aggregation and deaggregation of plasmonic nanoparticles or semiconductor quantum dots and the control over their optical properties, the transient release and uptake of loads by aptamer scaffolds, and the transient reconfiguration of constitutional dynamic networks and the control over emergent catalytic functions. The future perspectives of dissipative nucleic acid‐based networks and their potential future applications are discussed.
