An aza-BODIPY dye 1 bearing two hydrophobic fan-shaped tridodecyloxybenzamide pendants through 1,2,3-triazole linkages was synthesized by a click reaction and characterized. 1H NMR studies indicated that dye 1 exhibited variable conformations through intramolecular H-bonding interaction, which is beneficial for the polymorphism of aggregation. The thermodynamic, structural, and kinetic aspect of the supramolecular polymerization of dye 1 was investigated by UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, AFM, TEM, and SEM. Biphasic aggregation pathways of dye 1 , leads to the formation of off-pathway, metastable Agg. I and thermodynamically stable Agg. II with distinct H-aggregation spectra and nanoscale morphology. The living manner of the supramolecular polymerization of dye 1 was demonstrated in seeded polymerization experiments with temperature-modulated successive cooling–heating cycles. 相似文献
ω‐Telechelic poly(p‐phenylene vinylene) species (PPVs) are prepared by living ring‐opening metathesis polymerization of a [2.2]paracyclophane‐1,9‐diene in the presence of Hoveyda–Grubbs 2nd generation initiator, with terminating agents based on N1,N3‐bis(6‐butyramidopyridin‐2‐yl)‐5‐hydroxyisophthalamide (Hamilton wedge), cyanuric acid, PdII–SCS‐pincer, or pyridine moieties installing the supramolecular motifs. The resultant telechelic polymers are self‐assembled into supramolecular block copolymers (BCPs) via metal coordination or hydrogen bonding and analyzed by 1H NMR spectroscopy. The optical properties are examined, whereby individual PPVs exhibit similar properties regardless of the nature of the end group. Upon self‐assembly, different behaviors emerge: the hydrogen‐bonding BCP behaves similarly to the parent PPVs whereas the metallosupramolecular BCP demonstrates a hypsochromic shift and a more intense emission owing to the suppression of aggregation. These results demonstrate that directional self‐assembly can be a facile method to construct BCPs with semiconducting networks, while combating solubility and aggregation. 相似文献
The performance of opto‐electronic devices built from low‐molecular‐weight dye molecules depends crucially on the stacking properties and the resulting coupling of the chromophoric systems. Herein we investigate the influence of H‐bonding amide and bulky substituents on the π‐stacking of pyrene‐containing small molecules in dilute solution, as supramolecular aggregates, and in the solid state. A set of four pyrene derivatives was synthesized in which benzene or 4‐tert‐butyl benzene was linked to the pyrene unit either through an ester or an amide. All four molecules form supramolecular H‐aggregates in THF solution at concentrations above 1×10?4 mol L?1. These aggregates were transferred on a solid support and crystallized. We investigate: the excimer formation rates within supramolecular aggregates; the formation of H‐bonds as well as the optical changes during the transition from the amorphous to the crystalline state; and the excimer to monomer fluorescence ratio in crystalline films at low temperatures. We reveal that in solution supramolecular aggregation depends predominantly on the pyrene chromophores. In the crystalline state, however, the pyrene stacking can be controlled gradually by H‐bonding and steric effects. These results are further confirmed by molecular modeling. This work bears fundamental information for tailoring the solid state of functional optoelectronic materials. 相似文献
A new family of 120° carbazole‐based dendritic donors D1 – D3 have been successfully designed and synthesized, from which a series of novel supramolecular carbazole‐based metallodendrimers with well‐defined shapes and sizes were successfully prepared by [2+2] and [3+3] coordination‐driven self‐assembly. The structures of newly designed rhomboidal and hexagonal metallodendrimers were characterized by multinuclear NMR (1H and 31P) spectroscopy, ESI‐TOF mass spectrometry, FTIR spectroscopy, and the PM6 semiempirical molecular orbital method. The fluorescence emission behavior of ligands D1 – D3 , rhomboidal metallodendrimers R1 – R3 , and hexagonal metallodendrimers H1 – H3 in mixtures of dichloromethane and n‐hexane with different n‐hexane fractions were investigated. The results indicated that D1 – D3 featured typical aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) properties. However, different from ligands D1 – D3 , metallodendrimers R1 – R3 and H1 – H3 presented interesting generation‐dependent AIE properties. Furthermore, evidence for the aggregation of these metallodendrimers was confirmed by a detailed investigation of dynamic light‐scattering, Tyndall effect, and SEM. This research not only provides a highly efficient strategy for constructing carbazole‐based dendrimers with well‐defined shapes and sizes, but also presents a new family of carbazole‐based dendritic ligands and rhomboidal and hexagonal metallodendrimers with interesting AIE properties. 相似文献
A systematic study of the influence of solvent and the size of C3‐symmetric discotics on their supramolecular polymerization mechanism is presented. The cooperativity of the self‐assembly of the reported compounds is directly related to their gelation ability. The two series of C3‐symmetric discotics investigated herein are based on benzene‐1,3,5‐tricarboxamides (BTAs) and oligo(phenylene ethynylene)‐based tricarboxamides (OPE? TAs) that are peripherally decorated with achiral ( 1 a and 2 a ) or chiral N‐(2‐aminoethyl)‐3,4,5‐trialkoxybenzamide units ( 1 b and 2 b ). The supramolecular polymerization of compounds 1 a , b and 2 a , b has been exhaustively investigated in a number of solvents and by using various techniques: variable‐temperature circular dichroism (VT‐CD) spectroscopy, concentration‐dependent 1H NMR spectroscopy, and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). The supramolecular polymerization mechanism of compounds 2 is highly cooperative in solvents such as methylcyclohexane and toluene and is isodesmic in CHCl3. Unexpectedly, chiral compound 1 b is practically CD‐silent, in contrast with previously reported BTAs. ITC measurements in CHCl3 demonstrated that the supramolecular polymerization of BTA 1 a is isodesmic. These results confirm the strong influence of the π‐surface of the central aromatic core of the studied discotic and the branched nature of the peripheral side chains on the supramolecular polymerization. The gelation ability of these organogelators is negated in CHCl3, in which the supramolecular polymerization mechanism is isodesmic. 相似文献
The inclusion of the fluorescent organic dye, ethyl 3‐(7‐hydroxy‐2‐oxo‐2H‐chromen‐3‐yl)‐3‐oxopropanoate ( 1 ) by the host β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD), and its response toward mercuric ions (Hg2+), was studied by UV/Vis, fluorescence, and 1H NMR spectroscopic analyses, mass spectrometry and molecular modeling studies. 1H NMR measurements together with molecular modeling studies for dye 1 demonstrate that it exhibits two tautomeric forms (keto and enol); however, when the dye is included into the β‐CD cavity, the enol form predominates. Moreover, by using spectroscopic and spectrometry techniques, a 1:1 stoichiometry was determined for the complexes formed between dye 1 (enol form) and β‐CD, with a binding constant (Kb1=1.8×104 m ?1) and for the dye 1 (keto form)‐Hg2+ (Kb2=2.3×103 m ?1). Interestingly, in the presence of 1 –β‐CD complex and mercuric ions, a ternary supramolecular system (Hg– 1 –β‐CD complex) was established, with a 1:1:1 stoichiometry and a Kb3 value of 4.3×103 m ?1, with the keto form of the dye being the only one present in this assembly. The three‐component system provides a starting point for the development of novel and directed supramolecular assemblies. 相似文献
Hyperbranched polyethylenimine (HPEI) was simply mixed with a solution of amphiphilic calix[4]arene (AC4), which possesses four phenol groups and four aliphatic chains, in chloroform. This resulted in the novel supramolecular complex HPEI–AC4 through the noncovalent interaction of the amino groups of HPEI with the phenol groups of AC4. The formed HPEI–AC4 supramolecular complexes were characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy and dynamic light scattering. The cationic water‐soluble dye methyl blue (MB) and the anionic water‐soluble dye methyl orange (MO) were used as the model guests to test the performance of HPEI–AC4 as a supramolecular nanocarrier. It was found that HPEI–AC4 could accommodate the anionic water‐soluble MO guests into the HPEI core. The MO encapsulation capacity of HPEI–AC4 was pH sensitive, which reached maximum loading under weakly acidic conditions. The loaded MO molecules could be totally released when the pH value was reduced to be around 4.5 or raised to be around 9.5, and this process was reversible. HPEI–AC4 could not only accommodate the anionic MO with the HPEI core but could also simultaneously load the cationic MB molecules using the formed AC4 shell, thereby realizing the site isolation of the two kinds of functional units. The amount of MO and MB encapsulated by HPEI–AC4 could be controlled by varying the ratio of hydroxyl groups of AC4 to amino groups of HPEI. 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
Summary: The oxidative polymerization of N‐glucosylaniline was carried out using ammonium persulfate as the oxidant in phosphate buffer. The structure of the isolated polymer was determined by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and UV‐vis spectroscopy to be the polyaniline having glucose residues attached to the general polyaniline unit. Participation of the ortho‐position of the aromatic ring in the polymerization was also confirmed by the analyses.

Summary: A low‐molar‐mass poly(acrylic acid) with a narrow molar‐mass distribution, prepared by SG1 nitroxide‐mediated controlled free‐radical polymerization, was subjected to end‐group analysis to confirm its living nature. 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopy confirmed the presence of the SG1‐based alkoxyamine end group. Furthermore, chain extension with styrene and n‐butyl acrylate demonstrated the ability of the homopolymer to initiate the polymerization of a second block. These results open the door to the synthesis of poly(acrylic acid)‐based block copolymers by direct nitroxide‐mediated polymerization of acrylic acid.

A polyoxometalate‐based molecular triangle has been synthesized through the metal‐driven self‐assembly of covalent organic/inorganic hybrid oxo‐clusters with remote pyridyl binding sites. The new metallomacrocycle was unambiguously characterized by using a combination of 1H NMR spectroscopy, 2D diffusion NMR spectroscopy (DOSY), electrospray ionization travelling wave ion mobility mass spectrometry (ESI‐TWIM‐MS), small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS) and molecular modelling. The collision cross‐sections obtained from TWIM‐MS and the hydrodynamic radii derived from DOSY are in good agreement with the geometry‐optimized structures obtained by using theoretical calculations. Furthermore, SAXS was successfully employed and proved to be a powerful technique for characterizing such large supramolecular assemblies. 相似文献
A new host molecule consists of four terpyridine groups as the binding sites with zinc(II) ion and a copillar[5]arene incorporated in the center as a spacer to interact with guest molecule was designed and synthesized. Due to the 120 ° angle of the rigid aromatic segment, a cross‐linked dimeric hexagonal supramolecular polymer was therefore generated as the result of the orthogonal self‐assembly of metal–ligand coordination and host–guest interaction. UV/Vis spectroscopy, 1H NMR spectroscopy, viscosity and dynamic light‐scattering techniques were employed to characterize and understand the cross‐linking process with the introduction of zinc(II) ion and guest molecule. More importantly, well‐defined morphology of the self‐assembled supramolecular structure can be tuned by altering the adding sequence of the two components, that is, the zinc(II) ion and the guest molecule. In addition, introduction of a competitive ligand suggested the dynamic nature of the supramolecular structure. 相似文献
A linear supramolecular architecture was successfully constructed by the inclusion complexation of α‐cyclodextrin with azobenzene and the host‐stabilized charge‐transfer interaction of naphthalene and a bispyridinium guest with cucurbit[8]uril in water, which was comprehensively characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy, UV/Vis absorption, fluorescence, circular dichroism spectroscopy, dynamic laser scattering, and microscopic observations. Significantly, because it benefits from the photoinduced isomerization of the azophenyl group and the chemical reduction of bispyridinium moiety with noncovalent connections, the assembly/disassembly process of this supramolecular nanostructure can be efficiently modulated by external stimuli, including temperature, UV and visible‐light irradiation, and chemical redox. 相似文献
