Truxene and its congeners due to its structural, thermal, and optoelectronic properties, has recently became important not only in biological systems but also in the field of material and environmental sciences. The remarkable scope and its applicability ranging from sensory materials to photocatalysts and fluorescent probes, forces the scientific community to think about the design and construction of architecturally simple yet much powerful novel functional materials possessing the truxene scaffold(s) in their structures. Herein, we have focused to assemble a series of ground‐breaking achievements in recent years of truxene‐based functional materials with special emphasis on their applicability in material sciences and technology. We hope that the present review will boost the current scenario of truxene and its various domains.
