Non-equilibrium supramolecular polymerization
Supramolecular polymerization has been traditionally focused on the thermodynamic equilibrium state, where one-dimensional assemblies reside at the global minimum of the Gibbs free energy. The pathway and rate to reach the equilibrium state are irrelevant, and the resulting assemblies remain unchanged over time. In the past decade, the focus has shifted to kinetically trapped (non-dissipative n...
متن کاملNon-equilibrium steady states in supramolecular polymerization
Living systems use fuel-driven supramolecular polymers such as actin to control important cell functions. Fuel molecules like ATP are used to control when and where such polymers should assemble and disassemble. The cell supplies fresh ATP to the cytosol and removes waste products to sustain steady states. Artificial fuel-driven polymers have been developed recently, but keeping them in sustain...
متن کاملSupramolecular polymerization.
ion of the proton from the amino group of the monomer (phenyl 4-(alkylamino)benzoate) by the base, the reactivity of the phenyl ester moiety is deactivated, which prevents monomers from reacting with each other. The anion produced by proton abstraction from the monomer will only react with initiator, leading to an activated monomer that possesses a more reactive phenyl ester moiety compared to ...
متن کاملCompression, supramolecular organization and free radical polymerization of ethylene gas
At low pressure, ethylene gas consists of single translating and rotating molecules and behaves as an ideal gas. With decrease of free volume by compression, various rotating supramolecular particles are formed, which require less space for the movement: molecular pairs, bimolecules and oligomolecules. The appearance of a new kind of particles is manifested as a phase transition of the second o...
متن کاملNon-equilibrium dissipative supramolecular materials with a tunable lifetime
Many biological materials exist in non-equilibrium states driven by the irreversible consumption of high-energy molecules like ATP or GTP. These energy-dissipating structures are governed by kinetics and are thus endowed with unique properties including spatiotemporal control over their presence. Here we show man-made equivalents of materials driven by the consumption of high-energy molecules a...
