The gel properties will also be influenced by many other parameters including the nature of the cross-links, synthesis conditions, type and concentration of initiator used, phase separation, and the presence of noncovalent interactions such as hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. Nonetheless, the gel properties depend primarily upon the monomers used.

The synthesis, spectral properties, and applications of symmetrical as well as unsymmetrical, hydrophobic oxo-squaraine probes for noncovalent interaction with proteins, lipids, cells, and other high-molecular-weight analytes are described in numerous publications and patents [52, 57, 58]. 

Rotaxanes are the compounds consisting of noncovalent entities called rotor and axle [77], Figure 21 illustrates them schematically. Initially, attempts were made to prepare them by statistical methods, so that the yields were necessarily very low [78-80], Recently, methods have been proposed for their more efficient synthesis, with renewed interest in their unique structure and properties. Section 4.1 summarizes some of the typical results obtained. 

Chemical synthesis does not begin and end with the chemistiy of the covalent bond. The art of noncovalent synthesis has been evolving rapidly over... 

While the convergent strategy, as described above, has been exceptionally successful, a considerable amount of effort has been devoted to improving its speed and synthetic efficiency. The remainder of this chapter reviews the major methodological developments and improvements in the accelerated, covalent, convergent synthesis of dendrimers. Dendrimers constructed via self-assembly and noncovalent interactions, as well as inorganic dendrimers [25], are beyond the scope of this brief chapter. 

In general, the various synthesis strategies for nanocarbon hybrids can be categorized as ex situ and in situ techniques [3]. The ex situ ( building block ) approach involves the separate synthesis of the two components prior to their hybridization. One can rely on a plethora of scientific work to ensure good control of the component s dimensions (i.e. size, number of layers), morphology (i.e. spherical nanoparticles, nanowires) and functionalization. The components are then hybridized through covalent, noncovalent or electrostatic interactions. In contrast, the in situ approach is a one-step process that involves the synthesis of one of the components in the pres-... 

Noncovalent interactions play a special role in synthetic procedures used to assemble various types of supramolecular species. These syntheses rely on the stabilization provided by non-covalent interactions between recognition sites incorporated within precursors. Various types of non-covalent interactions can be used as a recognition motif utilized to guide the synthesis.Targeted synthesis of macro- and supramolecular structures of various sizes, shapes, and functionality has now become possible. Supramolecular chemistry offers incredible applications in various fields such as medicinal chemistry (drug delivery systems),host-guest chemistry,catalysis,and molecular electronics. ... 

This chapter will outline the synthesis of polymeric materials pursuing structural diversity and prepared by equilibrium reactions through DCLs. In particular, the dynamic covalent polymers will be focused upon because of their high stability and processability. In addition, advanced approaches to polymeric materials in DCC will be outlined. In this chapter, the authors will only discuss covalent polymers, excluding noncovalent polymers (supramo-lecular polymers) that can be found in References 7 and 8.
