Supramolecular terpolymerization. a Schematic representation of the supramolecular terpolymerization of three components A, B, and C via self-sorting assembly or random assembly. b Host–guest structures of the biscalix[5]arene-C60 complex, bisporphyrin-TNF complex, and Hamilton’s hydrogen-bonding complex. c Structures of the three heteroditopic monomers 1, 2, and 3 possessing mismatched host–guest pairs. d Sequence-controlled supramolecular polymerization of three sets of heteroditopic monomers via a self-sorting
