title: The first water-soluble pillar[5]arene dimer: synthesis and construction of a reversible fluorescent supramolecular polymer network in water.
abstract: The first water-soluble pillar[n]arene (n = 5) dimer was successfully synthesized. This dimer can complex with carboxylate anion-functionalized tetraphenyl ethylene to form a reversible fluorescent supramolecular polymer network in water.
