“…On the other hand, CMCs have been the focus of considerable interest because of their potential to encapsulate guest species, deliver drugs, catalyze reactions within their cavities, etc. 8–10 Moreover, exploring new linkage chemistry has always been one of the research focuses, 8 d since the emergence of a new-type linkage not only enriches the structural diversity but also may result in distinctive properties and applications of CMCs. To this end, various CMCs with linkages including –B–O–, 9 a ,11 –CN–, 12 –C–N–, 13 –C–O–, 14 –Si–O–, 15 and –C–C– 16 bonds have been developed in the past decade.…”
