A novel type of host–guest recognition systems have been developed on the basis of a Au(Ⅲ) molecular tweezer receptor and chiral Pt(Ⅱ) guests. The complementary host–guest motifs display high non-covalent binding affinity (Ka: ~104 L/mol) due to the participation of two-fold intermolecular π–π stacking interactions. Both phosphorescence and chirality signals of the Pt(Ⅱ) guests strengthen in the resulting host–guest complexes, because of the cooperative rigidifying and shielding effects rendered by the tweezer receptor. Their intensities can be reversibly switched toward pH changes, by taking advantage of the electronic repulsion effect between the protonated form of tweezer receptor and the positive-charged guests in acidic environments. Overall, the current study demonstrates the feasibility to enhance and modulate phosphorescence and chirality signals simultaneously via molecular tweezer-based host–guest recognition.
