• Cucurbit[7]uril
• Photo-responsiveness
• Host-guest system
• Supra-amphiphile

A photo-responsive host guest molecular recognition between a cucurbit[7]uril host and an azobenzenecontaining guest was investigated. Based on this recognition motif, a photo-responsive supra-amphiphile was constructed. This supra-amphiphile can self-assemble into vesicles in water, which can be destroyed by UV irradiation. Depending on this photo-responsive assembly, its application in controlled release was further performed.
