Macroscopic self-assembly through molecular recognition.
Molecular recognition plays an important role in nature, with perhaps the best known example being the complementarity exhibited by pairs of nucleobases in DNA. Studies of self-assembling and self-organizing systems based on molecular recognition are often performed at the molecular level, however, and any macroscopic implications of these processes are usually far removed from the specific mol...
متن کاملLamellar organic thin films through self-assembly and molecular recognition.
Molecular clips possessing U-shaped cavities have been functionalized on their convex side with long aliphatic tails. These molecules form dimers which self-assemble into malleable lamellar thin films. Upon addition of a guest (methyl 3,5-dihydroxybenzoate), a 1:1 host-guest complex is formed, which prohibits clip dimerization. As a result, the lamellar structure of the material is lost. Comple...
متن کاملAssociative pattern recognition through macro-molecular self-assembly
We show that macro-molecular self-assembly can recognize and classify high-dimensional patterns in the concentrations of N distinct molecular species. Similar to associative neural networks, the recognition here leverages dynamical attractors to recognize and reconstruct partially corrupted patterns. Traditional parameters of pattern recognition theory, such as sparsity, fidelity, and capacity ...
متن کاملMolecules within molecules: recognition through self-assembly.
Synthetic molecular receptors that completely surround their target molecules can be created through the use of noncovalent interactions. These molecular capsules selectively sequester guest molecules from the influence of bulk solvent and other molecules on the basis of size, shape, and chemical complementarity. This reversible isolation spawns unique behavior within the confines of the host; ...
متن کاملMolecular recognition and self-assembly special feature: Introduction to the molecular recognition and self-assembly special feature.
M olecular recognition is a mature branch of chemical science, and why shouldn’t it be? Decades of studies in physical organic chemistry have defined and evaluated the weak intermolecular forces involved when 2 molecules encounter each other. Every bimolecular reaction, whether it occurs in the gas phase, dilute solution, or an enzyme’s interior, begins with a recognition event. It is an apt ti...
