Upon cooling in solution, chiral triarylamine tris-amide unimers produce organogels by stacking into helical supramolecular polymers, which subsequently bundle into larger fibers. Interestingly, circular dichroism, vibrational circular dichroism, and AFM imaging of the chiral self-assemblies revealed that monocolumnar P-helical fibrils formed upon fast cooling, whereas bundled M-superhelical fibers formed upon slow cooling. The mechanistic study of this structural bifurcation reveals the presence of a strong memory effect, reminiscent of a complex stepwise combination of primary and secondary nucleation-growth processes. These results highlight the instrumental role of sequential self-assembly processes to control supramolecular architectures of multiple hierarchical order.  相似文献

The synthesis and self-assembling features of twistacene 1 are reported. The supramolecular polymerization of 1 displays a consecutive pathway to afford slipped ( AggI ) and rotationally displaced ( AggII ) aggregates conditioned by the formation of intramolecularly H-bonded pseudocycles. In methylcyclohexane, both AggI and AggII are highly stable and the interconversion of the kinetically controlled AggI into the thermodynamically controlled AggII takes several weeks to occur. The utilization of toluene as solvent changes the energetic level for both aggregates and favors a faster conversion of AggI into AggII within a period of minutes. This conversion can be accelerated by the addition of seeds. Furthermore, concentration dependent kinetic studies demonstrate the consecutive character of the supramolecular polymerization of 1 .  相似文献

Pathway complexity, hierarchical organization, out of equilibrium, and metastable or kinetically trapped species are common terms widely used in recent, high‐quality publications in the field of supramolecular polymers. Often, the terminologies used to describe the different self‐assembly pathways, the species involved, as well as their relationship and relative stability are not trivial. Different terms and classifications are commonly found in the literature, however, in many cases, without clear definitions or guidelines on how to use them and how to determine them experimentally. The aim of this Minireview is to classify, differentiate, and correlate the existing concepts with the help of recent literature reports to provide the reader with a general insight into thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of complex supramolecular polymerization processes. A good comprehension of these terms and concepts should contribute to the development of new complex, functional materials.  相似文献

Novel, chiral‐selective linear nanotubular heterojunctions were achieved by living supramolecular polymerization of perylenediimide (PDI) derivatives. We demonstrate that the chiral seed can effectively bias achiral PDI molecules to polymerize on its ends in the identical helical sense. More interestingly, the chiral seed can bias the opposite enantiomers to grow expitaxially from its ends even in excess amounts relative to the seed. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the biasing effect of the chiral seed on the opposite enantiomer is not dependent on the length of the chiral seed but is related to the intrinsic length of the elongated nanotube from the opposite enantiomer. The fabrication of chiral‐selective nanotubes was achieved by application of the unique biasing effect of the chiral seed in living supramolecular self‐assembly.  相似文献

Studies were carried out on the hierarchical self‐assembly versus pathway complexity of N‐annulated perylenes 1 – 3 , which differ only in the nature of the linking groups connecting the perylene core and the side alkoxy chains. Despite the structural similarity, compounds 1 and 2 exhibit noticeable differences in their self‐assembly. Whereas 1 forms an off‐pathway aggregate I that converts over time (or by addition of seeds) into the thermodynamic, on‐pathway product, 2 undergoes a hierarchical process in which the kinetically trapped monomer species does not lead to a kinetically controlled supramolecular growth. Finally, compound 3 , which lacks the amide groups, is unable to self‐assemble under identical experimental conditions and highlights the key relevance of the amide groups and their position to govern the self‐assembly pathways.  相似文献

Supramolecular polymers have attracted plenty of interest in the scientific community; however, developing controllable methods of supramolecular polymerization remains a serious challenge. This article reviews some recent developments of methods for supramolecular polymerization from controllable fabrication to living polymerization. Three facile methods with general applicability for controllable fabrication of supramolecular polymers have been established recently: the first method is a self‐sorting approach by manipulating ring–chain equilibrium based on noncovalent control over rigidity of monomers; the second is covalent polymerization from supramonomers formed by noncovalent interactions; and the third is supramolecular interfacial polymerization. More excitingly, living supramolecular polymerization has been achieved by two elegant strategies, including seeded supramolecular polymerization under pathway complexity control and chain‐growth supramolecular polymerization by metastable monomers. It is anticipated that this review may provide some guidance for precise fabrication of supramolecular polymers, leading to the construction of supramolecular polymeric materials with controllable architectures and functions.  相似文献

Far‐from‐equilibrium thermodynamic systems that are established as a consequence of coupled equilibria are the origin of the complex behavior of biological systems. Therefore, research in supramolecular chemistry has recently been shifting emphasis from a thermodynamic standpoint to a kinetic one; however, control over the complex kinetic processes is still in its infancy. Herein, we report our attempt to control the time evolution of supramolecular assembly in a process in which the supramolecular assembly transforms from a J‐aggregate to an H‐aggregate over time. The transformation proceeds through a delicate interplay of these two aggregation pathways. We have succeeded in modulating the energy landscape of the respective aggregates by a rational molecular design. On the basis of this understanding of the energy landscape, programming of the time evolution was achieved through adjusting the balance between the coupled equilibria.  相似文献

Despite the central importance of aqueous amphiphile assemblies in science and industry, the size and shape of these nano‐objects is often difficult to control with accuracy owing to the non‐directional nature of the hydrophobic interactions that sustain them. Here, using a bioinspired strategy that consists of programming an amphiphile with shielded directional Watson–Crick hydrogen‐bonding functions, its self‐assembly in water was guided toward a novel family of chiral micelle nanotubes with partially filled lipophilic pores of about 2 nm in diameter. Moreover, these tailored nanotubes are successfully demonstrated to extract and host molecules that are complementary in size and chemical affinity.  相似文献

Polymerization of 11-acryloylaminoundecanoic acid and its copolymerization with diacrylic monomers were performed under different conditions in micellar (Na-salt in water) and non-micellar states. The effect of conditions of the syntheses on molecular mass of the polymers and hydrodynamic characteristics of their macromolecules was studied. Ionic complexes of core-cross-linked polymerized micelles with different dendrons bearing polymerizable peripheral groups were obtained and their trial polymerizations were performed.  相似文献

An amine functionalized C3-symmetric benzotrithiophene (BTT) monomer has been designed and synthetized in order to form pH responsive one-dimensional supramolecular polymers in aqueous media. While most of the reported studies looked at the effect of pH on the size of the aggregates, herein, a detailed mechanistic study is reported, carried out upon modifying the pH to trigger the formation of positively charged ammonium groups. A dramatic and reversible change in the polymerization mechanism and size of the supramolecular fibers is observed and ascribed to the combination of Coulombic repulsive forces and higher monomer solubility. Furthermore, the induced frustrated growth of the fibers is further employed to finely control the one-dimensional supramolecular polymerisation and copolymerization processes.  相似文献

Functionalized, styrene based monomers were investigated for copolymerization with isobutylene (IB) via living carbocationic polymerization. The achieved incorporation of polar moieties into the polymer backbone yielded supramolecular networks, which were analyzed and characterized via rheological measurements.  相似文献

By exploiting orthogonal hydrogen bonding involving supramolecular synthons and hydrophobic/hydrophilic interactions, a new series of simple organic salt based hydrogelators derived from pyrene butyric acid and its β‐alanine amide derivative, and various primary amines has been achieved. The hydrogels were characterised by microscopy, table‐top rheology and dynamic rheology. FTIR, variable‐temperature 1H NMR and emission spectroscopy established the role of various supramolecular interactions such as hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking in hydrogelation. Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction (SXRD) studies supported the conclusion that orthogonal hydrogen bonding involving amide–amide and primary ammonium monocarboxylate (PAM) synthons indeed played a crucial role in hydrogelation. The hydrogels were found to be stimuli‐responsive and were capable of sensing ammonia and adsorbing water‐soluble dye (methylene blue). All the hydrogelators were biocompatible (MTT assay in RAW 264.7 cells), indicating their suitability for use in drug delivery.  相似文献

Topological supramolecular polymers are responsible for design of innovative materials with unique physical properties but remain a challenging task to prepare by means of supramolecular polymerization. In this contribution, we present a novel method of region-confined amphiphilic supramolecular polymerization (RASP) in a controllable two-step self-organization pathway, which was certified by a new type of pyridine-oxadiazole alternating 48-membered macrocycles with structurally regional distribution of distinct self-assembling groups that can self-organize into circular supramolecular architectures. Meanwhile, water molecule plays a crucial role in RASP, and the water content in nonpolar solvent chloroform is sensitive to trigger controllable amphiphilic self-organization. Moreover, differing from the traditional rodlike micelles formed by self-assembly of linearly amphiphilic molecules, this approach of RASP exclusively gives rise to the formation of circularly assembled supramolecular polymers.  相似文献

The coassembly of two oligo-(p-phenylene vinylene) (OPV) derivatives with different sizes and opposite chirality is studied. Short R-chiral ROPV3 molecules experience a high energetic mismatch penalty when incorporated in helices formed by long S-chiral SOPV4 molecules. In contrast, SOPV4 easily coassembles into helices dominated by ROPV3. As a result, the coassembly behavior (i.e., mixing or phase separation of ROPV3 and SOPV4 within the assemblies) highly depends on the ratio between both molecular building blocks. By a combination of experiments and models, the assembly pathways are analyzed. Furthermore, the model allows identifying key parameters in the coassembly behavior, such as the cooperativity and the mismatch penalties. The model-driven approach is anticipated to be generally applicable in the engineering of functional supramolecular copolymers. This article is dedicated to the 70th birthday of Jean Fréchet and we thank him for being a continuous source of inspiration for our group. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.

pH-Tunable nanoscale morphology and self-assembly mechanism of a series of oligo(p-phenyleneethynylene) (OPE)-based bolaamphiphiles featuring poly(ethylene imine) (PEI) side chains of different length and degree of hydrolysis are described. Protonation and deprotonation of the PEI chains by changing the pH alters the hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance of the systems and, in turn, the strength of intermolecular interactions between the hydrophobic OPE moieties. Low pH values (3) lead to weak interaction between the OPEs and result in spherical nanoparticles, in which aggregation follows an isodesmic mechanism. In contrast, higher pH values (11) induce deprotonation of the polymer chains and lead to a stronger, cooperative aggregation into anisotropic nanostructures. Our results demonstrate that pH-responsive chains can be exploited as a tool to tune self-assembly mechanisms, which opens exciting possibilities to develop new stimuli-responsive materials.  相似文献

Mutations and changes in a protein's environment are well known for their potential to induce misfolding and aggregation, including amyloid formation. Alternatively, such perturbations can trigger new interactions that lead to the polymerization of folded proteins. In contrast to aggregation, this process does not require misfolding and, to highlight this difference, we refer to it as agglomeration. This term encompasses the amorphous assembly of folded proteins as well as the polymerization in one, two, or three dimensions. We stress the remarkable potential of symmetric homo‐oligomers to agglomerate even by single surface point mutations, and we review the double‐edged nature of this potential: how aberrant assemblies resulting from agglomeration can lead to disease, but also how agglomeration can serve in cellular adaptation and be exploited for the rational design of novel biomaterials.  相似文献

The formation of helical structures through the supramolecular polymerization of a variety of self-assembling units is reviewed. These scaffolds are usually obtained by efficient transfer or amplification of chirality phenomena, in which the starting self-assembling molecules possess different elements of asymmetry, such as point or axial chirality. Relevant examples of helical supramolecular structures investigated under thermodynamic control are reviewed, and the helical outcome of remarkable examples of chiral entities obtained through kinetic control are also highlighted. Finally, selected examples of flexible macroscopic chirality and catalysis are described to illustrate the applicability of helical aggregates.  相似文献
