“…We will not enter into details here; instead, we refer the interested reader to previously published reviews focused on intra-chain cross-linking techniques for SCNP construction. Hence, different non-covalent bonding-based strategies have been introduced over recent years to afford the preparation of responsive SCNPs, such as benzamide dimerization 77 developed in 2008, ureido-pyrimidinone (UPY) dimerization [78][79][80][81] in 2009, benzene-tricarboxamide (BTA) helical stacking 10,11,[82][83][84][85][86][87][88] in 2011, cucurbit[n]uril complexation, 89,90 hydrophobic L-phenylanaline (Phe)-Phe interactions 91,92 and 3,3 0 -bis(acylamino)-2,2 0 -bipyridine (BiPy-BTA) self-assembly 93 in 2012, Rh complexation, 94,95 charged amphiphilic random copolymer self-assembly [96][97][98][99][100][101] and Cu complexation in 2013, 13,72 and finally, neutral amphiphilic random copolymer self-assembly 102 in 2014. 11.…”
