How to Distinguish Isodesmic from Cooperative Supramolecular Polymerisation

To study the supramolecular polymerisation mechanisms of a self‐assembling system, concentration‐ and temperature‐dependent measurements can both be used to probe the transition from the molecular dissolved state to the aggregated state. In this report, both methods are evaluated to determine their effectiveness in identifying and quantifying the self‐assembly mechanism for isodesmic and cooperative self‐assembling systems. It was found that for a rapid and unambiguous determination of the self‐assembly mechanism and its thermodynamic parameters, temperature‐dependent measurements are more appropriate. These studies allow the acquisition of a large data set leading to an accurate determination of the self‐assembly mechanism and quantification of the different thermodynamic parameters that describe the supramolecular polymerisation. For a comprehensive characterisation, additional concentration‐dependent measurements can be performed.     

Cooperative Effect of a Classical and a Weak Hydrogen Bond for the Metal‐Induced Construction of a Self‐Assembled β‐Turn Mimic

A novel metal‐induced template for the self‐assembly of two independent phosphane ligands by means of unprecedented multiple noncovalent interactions (classical hydrogen bond, weak hydrogen bond, metal coordination, π‐stacking interaction) was developed and investigated. Our results address the importance and capability of weak hydrogen bonds (WHBs) as important attractive interactions in self‐assembling processes based on molecular recognition. Together with a classical hydrogen bond, WHBs may serve as promoters for the specific self‐assembly of complementary monomeric phosphane ligands into supramolecular hybrid structures. The formation of an intermolecular C? H???N hydrogen bond and its persistence in the solid state and in solution was studied by X‐ray crystal analysis, mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy analysis. Further evidence was demonstrated by DFT calculations, which gave specific geometric parameters for the proposed conformations and allowed us to estimate the energy involved in the hydrogen bonds that are responsible for the molecular recognition process. The presented template can be regarded as a new type of self‐assembled β‐turn mimic or supramolecular pseudo amino acid for the nucleation of β‐sheet structures when attached to oligopeptides.     

Supramolecular Chemistry in Microflow Fields: Toward a New Material World of Precise Kinetic Control

Constructing new and versatile self‐assembling systems in supramolecular chemistry is much like the development of new reactions or new catalysts in synthetic organic chemistry. As one such new technology, conventional supramolecular assembly systems have been combined with microflow techniques to control intermolecular or interpolymer interactions through precise regulation of a flowing self‐assembly field. The potential of the microflow system has been explored by using various simple model compounds. Uniform solvent diffusion in the microflow leads to rapid activation of molecules in a nonequilibrium state and, thereby, enhanced interactions. All of these self‐assembly processes begin from a temporally activated state and proceed in a uniform chemical environment, forming a synchronized cluster and resulting in effective conversion to supramolecules, with precise tuning of molecular (or polymer) interactions. This approach allows the synthesis of a variety of discrete microstructures (e.g., fibers, sheets) and unique supramolecules (e.g., hierarchical assemblies, capped fibers, polymer networks, supramolecules with time‐delayed action) that have previously been inaccessible.     

Self‐Assembly of Proteins: Towards Supramolecular Materials

The study of protein self‐assembly has attracted great interest over the decades, due to the important role that proteins play in life. In contrast to the major achievements that have been made in the fields of DNA origami, RNA, and synthetic peptides, methods for the design of self‐assembling proteins have progressed more slowly. This Concept article provides a brief overview of studies on native protein and artificial scaffold assemblies and highlights advances in designing self‐assembling proteins. The discussions are focused on design strategies for self‐assembling proteins, including protein fusion, chemical conjugation, supramolecular, and computational‐aided de novo design.     

Tandem Molecular Self‐Assembly in Liver Cancer Cells

We herein describe the tandem molecular self‐assembly of a peptide derivative ( 1 ) that is controlled by a combination of enzymatic and chemical reactions. In phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS), compound 1 self‐assembles first into nanoparticles by phosphatase and then into nanofibers by glutathione. Liver cancer cells exhibit higher concentrations of both phosphatase and GSH than normal cells. Therefore, the tandem self‐assembly of 1 also occurs in the liver cancer cell lines HepG2 and QGY7703; compound 1 first forms nanoparticles around the cells and then forms nanofibers inside the cells. Owing to this self‐assembly mechanism, compound 1 exhibits large ratios for cellular uptake and inhibition of cell viability between liver cancer cells and normal liver cells. We envision that using both extracellular and intracellular reactions to trigger tandem molecular self‐assembly could lead to the development of supramolecular nanomaterials with improved performance in cancer diagnostics and therapy.     

Supramolecularly Engineered Amphiphilic Macromolecules: Molecular Interaction Overrules Packing Parameters

We report molecular interaction‐driven self‐assembly of supramolecularly engineered amphiphilic macromolecules (SEAM) containing a single supramolecular structure‐directing unit (SSDU) consisting of an H‐bonding group connected to a naphthalene diimide chromophore. Two such SEAMs, P1‐50 and P2‐50, having the identical chemical structure and hydrophobic/hydrophilic balance, exhibit distinct self‐assembled structures (polymersome and cylindrical micelle, respectively) due to a difference in the H‐bonding group (hydrazide or amide, respectively) of the single SSDU. When mixed together, P1‐50 and P2‐50 adopted self‐sorted assembly. For either series of polymers, variation in the hydrophobic/hydrophilic balance does not alter the morphology reconfirming that self‐assembly is primarily driven by directional molecular interaction which is capable of overruling the existing norms in packing parameter‐dependent morphology control in an immiscibility‐driven block copolymer assembly.     

The Origin of Hierarchical Structure Formation in Highly Grafted Symmetric Supramolecular Double‐Comb Diblock Copolymers

Involving supramolecular chemistry in self‐assembling block copolymer systems enables design of complex macromolecular architectures that, in turn, could lead to complex phase behavior. It is an elegant route, as complicated and sensitive synthesis techniques can be avoided. Highly grafted double‐comb diblock copolymers based on symmetric double hydrogen bond accepting poly(4‐vinylpyridine)‐block‐poly(N‐acryloylpiperidine) diblock copolymers and donating 3‐nonadecylphenol amphiphiles are realized and studied systematically by changing the molecular weight of the copolymer. Double perpendicular lamellae‐in‐lamellae are formed in all complexes, independent of the copolymer molecular weight. Temperature‐resolved measurements demonstrate that the supramolecular nature and ability to crystallize are responsible for the formation of such multiblock‐like structures. Because of these driving forces and severe plasticization of the complexes in the liquid crystalline state, this supramolecular approach can be useful for steering self‐assembly of both low‐ and high‐molecular‐weight block copolymer systems.     

Synthesis and Supramolecular Self‐Assembly of Coil‐Rod‐Coil Molecules: The Relationship between Self‐Assembled Nanostructures and Molecular Structures

Herein, the relationship between the supramolecularly self‐assembled nanostructures and the chemical structures of coil‐rod‐coil molecules is discussed. A series of nonamphiphilic coil‐rod‐coil molecules with different alkyl chains, central mesogenic groups, and chemical linkers were designed and synthesized. The solvent‐mediated supramolecular self‐assembling of these coil‐rod‐coil molecules resulted in rolled‐up nanotubes, nanofibers, submicron sized belts, needle‐like microcrystals, and amorphous structures. The self‐assembling behaviors of these coil‐rod‐coil molecules have been systematically investigated to reveal the relationship between the supramolecularly self‐assembled nanostructures and their chemical structures. With respect to the formation of rolled‐up nanotubes by self‐assembly of coil‐rod‐coil molecules, we have systematically investigated the following three influencing structural factors: 1) the alkyl chain length; 2) the central mesogenic group; (3) the linker type. These studies disclosed the key structural features of coil‐rod‐coil molecules for the formation of rolled‐up nanotubes.

Dendronized supramolecular polymers self‐assembled from dendritic ionic liquids

The synthesis, structural, and retrostructural analysis of a library of self‐assembling dendrons containing triethyl and tripropyl ammonium, pyridinium and 3‐methylimidazolium chloride, tetrafluoroborate, and hexafluorophosphate at their apex are reported. These dendritic ionic liquids self‐assemble into supramolecular columns or spheres which self‐organize into 2D hexagonal or rectangular and 3D cubic or tetragonal liquid crystalline and crystalline lattices. Structural analysis by X‐ray diffraction experiments demonstrated the self‐assembly of supramolecular dendrimers containing columnar and spherical nanoscale ionic liquid reactors segregated in their core. Both in the supramolecular columns and spheres the noncovalent interactions mediated by the ionic liquid provide a supramolecular polymer and therefore, these assemblies represent a new class of dendronized supramolecular polymers. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
