Multicomponent supramolecular copolymerization promises to construct complex nanostructures with emergent properties. However, even two monomeric components, various possible outcomes such as self-sorted homopolymers, a random (statistical) copolymer, an alternate or block copolymer can occur, determined by their intermolecular interactions and monomer exchange dynamics hence structural prediction is extremely challenging. Herein, we target this challenge demonstrate unprecedented...
A pyridine/aniline appended unsymmetrical bidentate ligand N-(4-(4-aminobenzyl)phenyl)nicotinamide, investigated in this work has two well-separated coordination sites. Combination of the with cis-protected palladium(II) (i.e., PdL′) and separate reactions produced corresponding Pd2L′2Lun2 extremely rare Pd2Lun4 type self-assembled binuclear complexes, respectively. Notably, both varieties complexes are prepared from a common system. Two diastereomers (2,0) (1,1)-forms) possible for complex,...
Understanding the mechanism of chirality transfer from a chiral surface to an achiral molecule is essential for designing molecular systems with tunable chiroptical properties. These aspects are explored herein using l- and d-isomers alkyl valine amphiphiles, which self-assemble in water as nanofibers possessing negative charge. An chromophore, acridine orange, upon electrostatic binding on these surfaces displays mirror-imaged bisignated circular dichroism red-emitting circularly polarized...
The surface domains of self-assembled amphiphiles are well-organized and can perform many physical, chemical, biological functions. Here, we present the significance chiral these self-assemblies in transferring chirality to achiral chromophores. These aspects probed using l- d-isomers alkyl alanine which self-assemble water as nanofibers, possessing a negative charge. When bound on positively charged cyanine dyes (CY524 CY600), each having two quinoline rings bridged by conjugated double...
The prevalence of kinetically accessible states in supramolecular polymerization pathways has been exploited to control the growth polymer and thereby obtain niche morphologies. Yet, these themselves are not easily amenable for experimental delineation but could potentially be understood through molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Herein, we report an extensive investigation self-assembly pyrene-substituted diamide (PDA) monomers solution, conducted using atomistic MD simulations advanced...
