Possibly inspired by nature, chemists have extensively used hydrogen bonding as a tool for supramolecular assemblies of a diverse range of abiotic building blocks. As a structural motif, CT complexes can be compared to hydrogen-bonded complexes in its directional nature and complementarities. Additional advantages of CT interactions include wider solvent tolerance and easy spectro- scopic probing. Nevertheless the major limitation is their low associ- ation constant. This article shows different strategies have evolved over the years to overcome this drawback by reinforcing the CT interactions with auxiliary noncovalent forces without hampering the alternate als,[19, 20] fibrillar gels,[21] and the rele- stacking mode.
