In this issue of Chem, Fujita and co-workers investigate the self-assembly of peptide-based ligands with silver ions. Through selective crystallization they were able to isolate a molecular septafoil knot and a quadruply braided [2]catenane (8²₁ link)—entangled molecules that had, until now, evaded realization.

在本期《化学》杂志中，藤田及其同事研究了基于肽的配体与银离子的自组装。通过选择性结晶，他们能够分离出一个分子七叶形结和一个四重编织的[2]链烷（8 ² ₁链），这些缠结的分子至今仍未实现。
