Molecular Architectonics-guided Design of Biomaterials

The quest for mastering the controlled engineering of dynamic molecular assemblies is the basis of molecular architectonics. The rational use of noncovalent interactions to programme the molecular assemblies allow the construction of diverse molecular and material architectures with novel functional properties and applications. Understanding and controlling the assembly of molecular systems are daunting tasks owing to the complex factors that govern at the molecular level. Molecular architectures depend on the design of functional molecular modules through the judicious selection of functional core and auxiliary units to guide the precise molecular assembly and co-assembly patterns. Biomolecules with built-in information for molecular recognition are the ultimate examples of evolutionary guided molecular recognition systems that define the structure and functions of living organisms. Explicit use of biomolecules as auxiliary units to command the molecular assemblies of functional molecules is an intriguing exercise in the scheme of molecular architectonics. In this minireview, we discuss the implementation of the principles of molecular architectonics for the development of novel biomaterials with functional properties and applications ranging from sensing, drug delivery to neurogeneration and tissue engineering. We present the molecular designs pioneered by our group owing to the requirement and scope of the article while acknowledging the designs pursued by several research groups that befit the concept.     

DNA‐Nanotechnologie

For the past two decades the extraordinary molecular recognition properties of DNA molecules have been used for the creation of artificial molecular structures. Following the initial production of simple molecular objects and lattices, with the recent invention of the DNA origami technique the complexity of these structures has considerably increased. Now the construction of almost arbitrary molecular nanostructures from DNA in two and even three dimensions is feasible – and first concrete applications in biomedicine and nanotechnology are in reach. In addition to static molecular structures, also dynamical systems such as molecular machines, molecular motors, and molecular computers can be realized. The combination of these functions within integrated systems currently leads to the development of first molecular “robots” and assembly lines for nanotechnology.     

Electro‐Optic (E‐O) Molecular Glasses

This Focus Review describes molecular glasses as a new class of materials for nonlinear optical (NLO) applications, especially for electro‐optic (E‐O) devices. Examples of E‐O molecular glasses are reviewed with a focus on the molecular design of NLO chromophores and solid‐state engineering of molecular glasses. Molecular glasses based on dendrimers of multiple chromophores, molecular glass blends of chromophores, and molecular glasses based on reversible self‐assembly of chromophores are introduced as promising architectures to prepare morphologically stable molecular glasses with large E‐O activities and improved material properties for device applications. Future directions to fully exploit the potential of molecular glasses for NLO materials are presented.     

Visual Displays that Directly Interface and Provide Read‐Outs of Molecular States via Molecular Graphics Processing Units

The monitoring of molecular systems usually requires sophisticated technologies to interpret nanoscale events into electronic‐decipherable signals. We demonstrate a new method for obtaining read‐outs of molecular states that uses graphics processing units made from molecular circuits. Because they are made from molecules, the units are able to directly interact with molecular systems. We developed deoxyribozyme‐based graphics processing units able to monitor nucleic acids and output alphanumerical read‐outs via a fluorescent display. Using this design we created a molecular 7‐segment display, a molecular calculator able to add and multiply small numbers, and a molecular automaton able to diagnose Ebola and Marburg virus sequences. These molecular graphics processing units provide insight for the construction of autonomous biosensing devices, and are essential components for the development of molecular computing platforms devoid of electronics.

Valency and molecular structure

Valency is defined for each molecular orbital. The molecular orbital valency values are shown to be a good measure of the bonding nature of the molecular orbital. Comparisons are made with photoelectron spectral studies and Mulliken overlap population analysis.The variation of molecular valency and molecular orbital valency with bond angle is studied. It is found that for all the molecules presently considered, energy is linearly related to valency and that the molecular valency reaches a maximum at the equilibrium bond angle. It is also shown that the molecular orbital valency can serve as a quantitatively reliable ordinate for Mulliken-Walsh diagrams.

Nanofriction properties of molecular deposition films

The nanofriction properties of Au substrate and monolayer molecular deposition film and multilayer molecular deposition films on Au substrate and the molecular deposition films modified with alkyl-terminal molecule have been investigated by using an atomic force microscope. It is concluded that ( i ) the deposition of molecular deposition films on Au substrate and the modification of alkyl-terminal molecule to the molecular deposition films can reduce the frictional force; (ii) the molecular deposition films with the same terminal exhibit similar nanofriction properties, which has nothing to do with the molecular chain-length and the layer number; (iii) the unstable nanofriction properties of molecular deposition films are contributed to the active terminal of the molecular deposition film, which can be eliminated by decorating the active molecular deposition film with alkyl-terminal molecule, moreover, the decoration of alkyl-terminal molecule can lower the frictional force conspicuously; (iv) the relat     

Tailoring MWD of Bimodal Polyethylene in the Presence of Ziegler-Natta Catalyst

Summary: Linear poly (ethylene-co-1-butene) was produced through two-step polymerization in one reactor using a Ziegler-Natta catalyst, where in the first step, low molecular weight homopolymer of ethylene in the presence of hydrogen and in the next step, high molecular weight copolymer of ethylene with 1-butene in the absence of hydrogen were produced. Molecular weight distribution of bimodal polyethylene was tailored through adjustment of polymerization time of each stage and hydrogen concentration of the first stage. Increasing hydrogen concentration shifted the molecular weight distribution curve to the lower molecular weights and broadened molecular weight distribution while interestingly increased high molecular weight incorporation of copolymer produced in the second stage due to increasing of reaction rate in the second step. To achieve bimodal molecular weight distribution, the polymerization times of the first and the second steps, which are highly dependent on the amount of hydrogen, were adjusted properly. The effects of the mentioned parameters on the processability as well as rheological properties of some samples were investigated. The rheological results showed shear thinning behavior of all specimens and confirmed the changes in molecular weight and molecular weight distribution. It was also demonstrated that the melt miscibility between low molecular weight and high molecular weight fractions improved with increasing of chains having very low molecular weight.

Simultaneous formation behaviour of surface structures and molecular alignment by patterned photopolymerisation

ABSTRACT

Highly functional soft materials with fine control of molecular alignment are of great interest for the applications in various fields. However, the current method of molecular alignment still has some challenges. Recently, we have developed a new alignment process based on a concept of scanning wave photopolymerisation (SWaP). When a sample is irradiated with spatially selected light, a polymerisation occurs only in an irradiated region, leading to a molecular motion between the irradiated and unirradiated regions. Such molecular motion generates the alignment of liquid crystal molecules. Moreover, a surface relief structure is formed in the polymer film by the molecular motion. In this study, we simultaneously formed the surface structure and molecular alignment by the patterned photopolymerisation. We compared the degree of molecular alignment with the shape of the created surface structure, and revealed that the degree of molecular alignment was maximized at the boundary of irradiated and unirradiated regions. This method enables one to form both molecular alignment patterning and surface structuring in a single step.     

Determination of molecular mass of acidic polysaccharides by capillary electrophoresis

We developed a method for the determination of molecular mass of acidic polysaccharides based on their high-resolution separation by capillary electrophoresis. Polymers of N-acetylneuraminic acid (NeuAc) and polysulfated hyaluronic acid were separated into their molecular species up to 100 mono- and 20 disaccharide units, respectively. The relationship between the molecular mass of NeuAc-polymer and their electrophoretic mobilities showed good linearity, and was applied to the determination of molecular masses of larger NeuAc species unresolved by capillary electrophoresis under the same conditions. In the first step, the standard curve for the determination of molecular mass was constructed from the relationship between electrophoretic mobility and molecular mass. Subsequently, the mobility was extrapolated to the standard curve, and the molecular mass was calculated. Five different preparations of NeuAc polymers having different molecular masses showed smaller values than those determined by conventional chromatographic techniques. Further, molecular mass determined by the present method correlated with number-average molecular mass. The methodology presented here was applied to the determination of molecular mass of polysulfated hyaluronic acid. The data indicated that native hyaluronic acid was extensively degraded during sulfonation reaction.     

Nuclear magnetic resonance study of low molecular weight polychlorotrifluoroethylene

The molecular motion of low molecular weight polychlorotrifluroethylene of different molecular weights between 500 and 1300 was investigated by means of broad-line nuclear magnetic resonance measurements. The line width and second moment of the resonant absorption lines were obtained at temperatures from 77 to 300°K. The line narrowing for low molecular weight samples takes place in one step. In samples higher than 900 in molecular weight, however, there appears to be a glass transition process, and the line narrowing tends to occur in three steps. The line narrowing due to local molecular motion becomes observable with increasing molecular weight.     

Influence of molecular weight and polydispersity on phase behaviour of polyesters with laterally fixed or cross-shaped mesogens

To supplement previous studies of polyesters with laterally attached and cross-shaped mesogens the influence of molecular weight and molecular weight distribution on the phase behaviour has been investigated. For that purpose two polyesters have been fractionated by preparative gel permeation chromatography under high pressure and observed by polarizing microscopy and DSC measurements. A monotropic nematic polyester with laterally attached mesogens shows changing phase transitions up to a molecular weight of 10 000 (M_w); at higher molecular weight only the clearing transition is still slightly influenced. The molecular weight distribution at an average molecular weight of 15 000 (M_w) has no influence on the melting and clearing temperatures, but does effect recrystallization. The tendency to recrystallize decreases with increasing polydispersity, with increasing aberration from a monomodal molecular weight distribution. The recrystallization and the melting enthalpy are most distinguished at molecular weights around 12 000 (M_w) and crystallization disappears at molecular weights under about 5000 (M_w). In this way, fractions with stable nematic phases are obtained. Additionally, the broadness of the biphasic region shows a distinct dependence on molecular weight. Clearing temperatures show the most significant dependence on the molecular weight of an enantiotropic polyester with crossshaped mesogens dropping significantly below a molecular weight of about 20 000 (M_w). Oligomers with molecular weights below 10 000 (M_w) do not exhibit a mesophase. Polyesters with laterally attached mesogens as well as with crossshaped mesogens show no new liquid-crystalline phases by varying the molecular weight or the molecular weight distribution.     

Extended-chain crystals. III. Size distribution of polyethylene crystals grown under elevated pressure

Extended-chain crystals of high molecular weight polymethylene, a polyethylene with a broad molecular weight distribution, and three fractions of polyethylene were grown from the melt under elevated pressure. Comparison of the crystal size distribution in the molecular chain direction (measured on fracture surfaces by electron microscopy) with the molecular weight distribution (measured by gel-permeation chromatography) gave the following results. Up to molecular weight 10,000 all samples showed eutectic separation into fully extended chain crystals of narrow molecular weight distribution. Above molecular weight 10,000 mixed crystals were formed. Under the chosen crystallization conditions larger chain extension was achieved with higher molecular weights. However, an increase in molecular weight by a factor of 1000 led only to a tenfold increase in chain extension. These facts are discussed in the light of a proposed mechanism of crystal growth.
