The multiple interactions that hold the supramolecular polymeric structure together are similar in strength to those between solute and solvent. Although solvent effects in supramolecular chemistry have been recognized for a long time, the unique opportunities that supramolecular polymers offer to gain insight into solute-solvent interactions have become clear relatively recently. In recent years, a renewed interest in fundamental aspects of solute-solvent interactions has been sparked in the field of supramolecular chemistry in general and that of supramolecular polymers in particular. Interactions between solvents and solutes are a cornerstone of physical organic chemistry and have been the subject of investigations over the last century.
