Directed flexibility: self-assembly of a supramolecular tetrahedron.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Self-assembly of a tribenzo-27-crown-9 ether functionalized with six terpyridines generated (85%) an expanded tetrahedral structure comprised of four independent triangular surfaces interlinked by crown ether vertices.

[Supramolecular chemistry of multinuclear zinc(II) complexes in aqueous solution].
We report novel supramolecular polyhedrons formed by three-dimensional self-assembly of multinuclear zinc(II)-12-membered tetraamine (= cyclen = 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane) complexes with potentially multidentate ligands such as cyanuric acid (CA) and trithiocyanuric acid (TCA) in aqueous solution. Two new supermolecular frameworks were isolated by self-assembly of a tris (Zn(2+)-cyclen) (Z...
متن کاملArchimedean solids: transition metal mediated rational self-assembly of supramolecular-truncated tetrahedra.
A family of nanoscale-sized supramolecular cage compounds with a polyhedral framework is prepared by self-assembly from tritopic building blocks and rectangular corner units via noncovalent coordination interactions. These highly symmetrical cage compounds are described as face-directed, self-assembled truncated tetrahedra with T(d) symmetry.
متن کاملSelf and directed assembly: people and molecules
Self-assembly and directed-assembly are two very important aspects of supramolecular chemistry. As a young postgraduate student working in Canada with Tom Fyles my introduction to Supramolecular Chemistry was through the self-assembly of phospholipid membranes to form vesicles for which we were developing unimolecular and self-assembling transporter molecules. The next stage of my development a...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of hydrogen-bonded supramolecular strands from complementary melamine and barbiturate components with chiral selection
Mixtures of the triamino triazines 1È6 with the complementary barbiturate 7 result in molecular recognition directed self-assembly in solution and in the solid state. The cocrystallization of enantiomerically pure 1 or 2 with 7 leads to the formation of supramolecular strands, which have been characterized by crystal structure determination. When a racemic mixture of 1 and 2 is used, chiral sel...
متن کاملSupramolecular assembly in a Janus-type urea system.
A pyrazolyl urea ligand adopts two possible conformations with the urea NH groups directed either outward or inward. Metal coordination enforces the outward conformation resulting in either anion complexation or self-association and hence extended supramolecular assemblies including a hexameric barrel that persists in solution.
