The implementation of molecular machines in polymer science is high interest to transfer mechanical motions from nanoscale macroscale order access new kinds active devices and materials. Toward this objective, thermodynamic topological aspects need be explored for reaching efficient systems capable producing a useful work. In paper we describe the branched polymerization pH-sensitive bistable [c2] daisy chain rotaxanes by using copper(I)-catalyzed Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition ("click...
Organic materials exhibiting metallic behavior are promising for numerous applications ranging from printed nanocircuits to large area electronics. However, the optimization of electronic conduction in organic metals such as charge-transfer salts or doped conjugated polymers requires high crystallinity, which is detrimental their processability. To overcome this problem, combination properties metal-like with mechanical soft self-assembled systems attractive but necessitates absence...

Abstract An acid–base switchable [ c 2]daisy chain rotaxane terminated with two 2,6‐diacetylamino pyridine units has been self‐assembled a bis(uracil) linker. The complementary hydrogen‐bond recognition patterns, together lateral van der Waals aggregations, result in the hierarchical formation of unidimensional supramolecular polymers associated bundles muscle‐like fibers. Microscopic and scattering techniques reveal that mesoscopic structure these depends on extended or contracted states...
The study of supramolecular polymers in the bulk, diluted solution, and at solid-liquid interface has recently become a major topic interest, going from fundamental aspects to applications materials science. However, examples liquid-liquid are mostly unexplored. Here, we describe polymerization triarylamine molecules their light-triggered organization chloroform-water interface. resulting interfacial nematic layer these 1D is further used as template for precise alignment spherical gold...

As a result, marked changes in physical properties take place. The results illustrate response such dynamic system to chemical effectors (H+ nd ZnII), thus demonstrating adaptive behavior pressure external factors. also point possibility modulating optical (UV-visible absorption fluorescence) by specific...
A family of triarylamine-fullerene conjugates has been synthesized and shown to self-assemble upon light stimulation in chlorinated solvents. This light-induced process primarily involves excitation triarylamine derivatives, which then oxidize stack with their neutral counterparts form charge transfer complexes the p-conducting channels, while fullerenes are consequently enforced coaxial n-conducting columnar arrangements. These supramolecular heterojunctions can be organized over very long...

A novel method has been developed for the silica coating of iron nanoparticles while preserving magnetic properties.
Upon cooling in solution, chiral triarylamine tris-amide unimers produce organogels by stacking into helical supramolecular polymers, which subsequently bundle larger fibers. Interestingly, circular dichroism, vibrational and AFM imaging of the self-assemblies revealed that monocolumnar P-helical fibrils formed upon fast cooling, whereas bundled M-superhelical fibers slow cooling. The mechanistic study this structural bifurcation reveals presence a strong memory effect, reminiscent complex...

Hydrogen chloride and trifluoromethane sulfonic acid readily add to the symmetrically substituted 1,3-dibora-2,4-diphosphoniocyclobutane-1,3-diyl (1) unsymmetrically 1,3-dibora-2,4-diphosphoniobicyclo[1.1.0]butane (3) under mild conditions, substantiating some formal analogies between PBPB diradicaloids D alkenes. X-ray diffraction analyses carried out on all resulting 1,3-diborata-2,4-diphosphoniocyclobutanes (2, 4-6) revealed that reactions proceed with complete stereo- regio-selectivity,...
Metallic nanostructures are able to interact with an incident electromagnetic field at subwavelength scales by plasmon resonance which involves the collective oscillation of conduction electrons localized their surfaces. Among several possible applications this phenomenon, theoretical prediction is that optical circuits connecting multiple plasmonic elements will surpass classical electronic nanoscale because much faster light-based information processing. However, placement and coupling...
Tailored triarylamine units modified with terpyridine ligands were coordinated to Zn(2+) ions and characterized as discrete dimeric entities. Interestingly, when these complexes subsequently irradiated simple visible light in chloroform, they readily self-assembled into monodisperse spheres a mean diameter of 160 nm.
The self-assembly of chiral supramolecular polymers is an intricate process that spans a wide range length scales. Circular dichroism techniques are ideal to study this as they provide information on the molecular scale but at same time also sensitive probes long-range interactions control growth and morphology these polymers. As yet, Electronic Dichroism uses electronic transitions probe has by far been method choice while Vibrational Dichroism, which vibrational structure, much less...
The presence of a second 1,3-diborata-2,4-diphosphoniocyclobutane-1,3-diyl in the para-position phenylene linker favors diradical form over 1,3-diborata-2,4-diphosphoniobicyclo[1.1.0]butane bond stretch isomer, as long two planar units are coplanar with linker. This demonstrates that BPBP diradicals communicate through phenyl ring.
