Abstract
Anthracene, with its molecular panel-like shape and robust photophysical behaviour, is a versatile building block that is widely used to construct attractive and functional molecules and molecular assemblies through covalent and non-covalent linkages. The intrinsic photophysical, photochemical and chemical properties of the embedded anthracenes often interact to engender desirable chemical behaviours and properties in multi-anthracene assemblies. This review article focuses on molecular architectures with linear, cyclic, cage, and capsule shapes, each containing three or more anthracene subunits.Keywords
