Dendron-Mediated Self-Assembly, Disassembly, and Self-Organization of Complex Systems

TL;DR: The structural origin of chirality in different supramolecular structures through combinations of structural analysis methods has been investigated in this article, where the most ideal building blocks would need to display shape persistence in solution and in the solid state, since only this feature provides access to the use of complementary methods of structural analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-assembly of amphiphilic dendritic dipeptides into helical pores

TL;DR: A library of amphiphilic dendritic dipeptides that self-assemble in solution and in bulk through a complex recognition process into helical pores is described, finding that the molecular recognition and self-assembly process is sufficiently robust to tolerate a range of modifications to the amphiphile structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermoreversible cis-cisoidal to cis-transoidal isomerization of helical dendronized polyphenylacetylenes.

TL;DR: High cis content (81-99%) cis-transoidal polyphenylacetylene (PPA) jacketed with amphiphilic self-assembling dendrons, poly[(3,4-3,5)mG2-4EBn] with m = 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and (S)-3,7-dimethyloctyl, were synthesized by Rh(C triple bond CPh)(nbd)(PPh(3
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanomechanical function from self-organizable dendronized helical polyphenylacetylenes.

TL;DR: Nanomechanical function is demonstrated by a library of self-organizable dendronized cis-transoidal polyphenylacetylenes ( cis-PPAs) that possess a first-order phase transition from a hexagonal columnar lattice with internal order to a hexagon columnar liquid crystal phase.
