Over the last decade, numerous research efforts have been devoted to pillar[n]arenes since their debut. The popularity of pillararenes is a reflection of current research trend in supramolecular and macrocyclic chemistry in general. Among the vast applications (such as chemosensors, drug delivery, t...
