Article Abstract
Anion recognition has continuously attracted significant attention due to its important role in environmental and biological sciences. Here, we have designed and synthesized an electron-deficient fluorinated leaning pillar[6]arene 1 that contains two tetrafluoro-benzene units. The electron-deficient fluorinated leaning pillar[6]arene 1 is capable of selectively recognizing iodide anions to form a host-guest complex with 1 : 1 stoichiometry driven by anion-π interactions. Our work ascribes this selective recognition to the preorganization of macrocycles, suitable cavity size, and the effect of anion-π interactions. The innovative application of this macrocycle offers us a new avenue for the design of selective receptors for anions and electron-deficient macrocyclic arenes.

Porous molecular sorbents have excellent selectivity towards hydrocarbon separation with energy saving techniques. However, to realize commercialization, molecular sieving processes should be faster and more efficient compared to extended frameworks. In this work, we show that utilizing fluorine to improve the hydrophobic profile of leaning pillararenes affords a substantial kinetic selective adsorption of benzene over cyclohexane (20 : 1 for benzene).

Pancreatic malignancies encompass a heterogenous group of disorders, with poor prognosis at diagnosis. Traditionally, conventional computed tomography (CT) has been used for diagnosis, staging, and follow up. However, this technique lacks functional information; and is limited in diagnosis of occult pancreatic disease.
