By making use of the host–guest interactions between the host molecule tris‐o‐phenylenedioxycyclotriphosphazene (TPP) and the rod–coil block copolymer (BCP) poly(ethylene oxide)‐block‐poly(octyl 4′‐octyloxy‐2‐vinylbiphenyl‐4‐carboxylate) (PEO‐b‐PVBP), the supramolecular rod–rod block copolymer P(EO@TPP)‐b‐PVBP was constructed. It consists of a crystalline segment P(EO@TPP) with a hexagonal crystalline structure and a columnar nematic liquid‐crystalline segment (PVBP). As the PVBP segments arrange themselves as columnar nematic phases, the crystalline structure of the inclusion complex P(EO@TPP), which has a smaller diameter, is destroyed. The self‐assembled nanostructure is thus clearly affected by the interplay between the two blocks. On the basis of wide‐ and small‐angle X‐ray scattering analysis, we conclude that the supramolecular rod–rod BCP can self‐assemble into a cylinder‐in‐cylinder double hexagonal structure. 相似文献
Formation of a hydrogen‐bond network via an amide group is a key driving force for the nucleation–elongation‐type self‐assembly that is often seen in biomolecules and artificial supramolecular assemblies. In this work, rod‐coil‐like aromatic compounds bearing an amide ( 1 a – 3 a ) or urea group ( 1 u – 3 u ) were synthesized, and their self‐assemblies on a 2‐D surface were investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). According to the quantitative analysis of the concentration dependence of the surface coverage, it was revealed that the strength of the hydrogen bond (i.e., amide or urea) and the number of non‐hydrogen atoms in a molecular component (i.e., size of core and length of alkyl side chain) play a primary role in determining the stabilization energy during nucleation and elongation processes of molecular ordering on the HOPG surface. 相似文献
Summary: We have prepared hexa‐p‐phenylene based rod‐coil molecules with identical coil volume fractions, but different poly(propylene oxide) (PPO) coil architectures (linear versus dibranched), and investigated their self‐assembling behavior in the solid state by small angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. Rod‐coil molecules with a linear PPO coil showed a honeycomb‐like lamellar assembly of rod segments with hexagonally arrayed PPO coil perforations. In contrast, the rod‐coil molecules with dibranched PPO coils self‐organized into rod bundles with a body centered tetragonal symmetry surrounded by a PPO coil matrix. These results demonstrate that the steric hindrance at the rod/coil interface arising from coil architectural variation is a dominant parameter governing supramolecular rod assembly in the rod‐coil system.

A series of new imidazole‐substituted pyridine‐2‐amine and benzo‐substituted imidazol‐2‐amine 3 – 12 were synthesized by treating various amines 1(a – d) with alkyl/aryl isothiocyanate 2(a‐c) at 60–90°C in isopropyl alcohol without using any catalyst with high yields. The structures of all the newly synthesized compounds were characterized using IR, NMR (1H, 13C), mass, and elemental analyses. All the newly synthesized compounds were screened for their in vitro antioxidant and antimicrobial activities to understand their biological potency. All the title compounds exhibited good antioxidant and antimicrobial activities in vitro when compared to the standard drugs. 相似文献
The fabrication of block copolymer (BCP) vesicles (polymersomes) exhibiting synchronized covalent crosslinking and bilayer permeabilization remains a considerable challenge as crosslinking typically leads to compromised membrane permeability. Herein it is demonstrated how to solve this dilemma by employing a stimuli‐triggered crosslinking strategy with amphiphilic BCPs containing photolabile carbamate‐caged primary amines. Upon self‐assembling into polymersomes, light‐triggered self‐immolative decaging reactions release primary amine moieties and extensive amidation reactions then occur due to suppressed amine pKa within hydrophobic milieu. This leads to serendipitous vesicle crosslinking and the process is associated with bilayer hydrophobicity‐to‐hydrophilicity transition and membrane permeabilization. 相似文献
A self‐assembly phenomenon in an extruded polystyrene/clay nanocomposite sample is observed during a temperature increase process. Wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and infrared dichroism techniques have been employed to investigate the self‐assembly phenomenon. The results show that in the self‐assembly structure the montmorillonite primary particles orient parallel, and the phenyl rings of the polystyrene align perpendicular to the primary particles, whereas no obvious orientation of the aliphatic chain was observed. 相似文献
5‐Amino‐thieno[3,2‐c]pyrazole derivative 2 was prepared by Gewald reaction in a one‐pot procedure. The amino group of compound 2 like primary aromatic amine formed the diazonium salt when treated with NaNO2/HCl, followed by coupling with different nucleophiles to yield the azo coupling products 3a – d . The reactivity of 5‐amino‐thienopyrazole 2 has been investigated towards different electrophilic reagents such as aromatic aldehydes, alkyl halide, acid chloride, acid anhydride, phenyl isothiocyanate, carbon disulfide, ethyl glycinate, and thioacetamide, which afforded the reaction products 4 – 14 , respectively. 相似文献
Bis[2,4‐di(trifluoromethyl)quinoline‐7‐yl]amine ( 1 ), bis[2,4‐di(trifluoromethyl)quinoline‐7‐yl]methylamine ( 2 ), bis[2,4‐di(trifluoromethyl)quinoline‐7‐yl]phenylamine derivatives, Q2NPhX; X=NO2 ( 3 a ), I ( 3 b ), H ( 3 c ), OMe ( 3 d ), and NH2 ( 3 e ), tris[2,4‐di(trifluoromethyl)quinoline‐7‐yl]amine ( 4 ), and bis[2,4‐di(pentafluoroethyl)quinoline‐7‐yl]‐4‐nitrophenylamine ( 5 ) were prepared as functional fluorophores. On irradiating the solution samples, 1 showed no noticeable alteration, whereas 2 , 3 a – d , and 4 showed emission color changes from yellowish green to blue, indicating that a photoreaction took place. Analyses of the photoproduct based on absorption and emission spectra, 1H NMR spectra, and X‐ray crystallography indicated that photocyclization reactions occurred regioselectively and quantitatively to form bent–bent dipyridocarbazoles. In 3 a – d , the reaction rates depended on the solvent polarity and the substituent on the benzene ring. The photoreactions were accelerated with decreasing solvent polarity and with increasing electron‐withdrawing character of the substituents. The photocyclization of triquinolineamine 4 was faster than that of 3 a in all solvents. The results of semiempirical quantum‐chemical PM6 calculations suggested that the observed regioselective photocyclization could be explained by stabilization of the excited triplet transition state for the bent–bent form because of the molecular geometry with the CH?NQ hydrogen bonds. The solution of 5 in MeOH displayed photoreaction‐induced self‐assembly behavior to form twisted tape‐like fibers of width 200 nm, as determined by TEM imaging. 相似文献
A novel and efficient isocyanide‐based multicomponent reaction between alkyl or aryl isocyanides 1 , 2,3‐diaminomaleonitrile ( 2 ), naphthalene‐2,3‐diamines ( 6 ) or benzene‐1,2‐diamine ( 9 ), and 3‐oxopentanedioic acid ( 3 ) or Meldrum's acid ( 4 ) or ketones 7 was developed for the ecologic synthesis, at room temperature under mild conditions, of 1,6‐dihydropyrazine‐2,3‐dicarbonitriles 5a – 5f in H2O without using any catalyst, and of 3,4‐dihydrobenzo[g]quinoxalin‐2‐amine and 3,4‐dihydro‐3,3‐dimethyl‐quinoxalin‐2‐amine derivatives 8a – 8g and 10a – 10e , respectively, in the presence of a catalytic amount of p‐toluenesulfonic acid (TsOH) in EtOH, in good to excellent yields (Scheme 1). 相似文献
The controlled secondary self‐assembly of amphiphilic molecules in solution is theoretically and practically significant in amphiphilic molecular applications. An amphiphilic β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD) dimer, namely LA‐(CD)2, has been synthesized, wherein one lithocholic acid (LA) unit is hydrophobic and two β‐CD units are hydrophilic. In an aqueous solution at room temperature, LA‐(CD)2 self‐assembles into spherical micelles without ultrasonication. The primary micelles dissociates and then secondarily form self‐assemblies with branched structures under ultrasonication. The branched aggregates revert to primary micelles at high temperature. The ultrasound‐driven secondary self‐assembly is confirmed by transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, 1H NMR spectroscopy, and Cu2+‐responsive experiments. Furthermore, 2D NOESY NMR and UV/Vis spectroscopy results indicate that the formation of the primary micelles is driven by hydrophilic–hydrophobic interactions, whereas host–guest interactions promote the formation of the secondary assemblies. Additionally, ultrasonication is shown to be able to effectively destroy the primary hydrophilic–hydrophobic balances while enhancing the host–guest interaction between the LA and β‐CD moieties at room temperature. 相似文献
A series of main‐chain poly(amide‐triazole)s were prepared by copper(I)‐catalyzed alkyne–azide AABB‐type copolymerizatons between five structurally similar diacetylenes 1 – 5 with the same diazide 6 . The acetylene units in monomers 1 – 5 possessed different degrees of conformational flexibility due to the different number of intramolecular hydrogen bonds built inside the monomer architecture. Our study showed that the conformational freedom of the monomer had a profound effect on the polymerization efficiency and the thermoreversible gelation properties of the resulting copolymers. Among all five diacetylene monomers, only the one, that is, 1 ‐Py(NH)2 which possesses the pyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxamide unit with two built‐in intramolecular H bonds could produce the corresponding poly(amide‐triazole) Poly‐(PyNH)2 with a significantly higher degree of polymerization (DP) than other monomers with a lesser number of intramolecular H bonds. In addition, it was found that only this polymer exhibited excellent thermoreversible gelation ability in aromatic solvents. A self‐assembling model of the organogelating polymer Poly‐(PyNH)2 was proposed based on FTIR spectroscopy, XRD, and SEM analyses, in which H bonding, π–π aromatic stacking, hydrophobic interactions, and the structural rigidity of the polymer backbone were identified as the main driving forces for the polymer self‐assembly process. 相似文献
