Effect of the Ortho Alkylation of Perylene Bisimides on the Alignment and Self-Assembly Properties

چکیده
The effect of the ortho alkylation of perylene bisimides on the alignment and self-assembly properties has been studied. It was found that the dichroic properties of perylene bisimides in a liquid crystal host can be reversed with a single synthetic step by ortho alkylation. Furthermore, a solvent-induced growth of ultralong organic n-type semiconducting fibrils from non-ortho-alkylated perylene bisimide was observed. Ortho substitution of the perylene bisimide core alters the mode of fibrillar growth, leading to isotropic crystallization.

Self-assembly of luminescent N-annulated perylene tetraesters into fluid columnar phases.
A new class of N-annulated perylene tetraesters and their N-alkylated derivatives has been synthesized. N-Annulated perylene tetraesters stabilize a hexagonal columnar phase over a broad temperature range. The hexagonal columnar phase exhibited by these compounds shows good homeotropic alignment with few defects. Annulation in the bay region of the perylene tetraesters enhanced the width of the...
متن کاملControlled aggregation of peptide-substituted perylene-bisimides.
Controlled aggregation of perylene bisimides in multiple modes has been achieved via symmetric substitution with peptides. Using optical probes of aggregation, the balance of hydrophobic and electrostatic forces are found to play a key role in directing self assembly and are exploited via solvent, pH, and specific extrinsic ion effects.

The 1,6- and 1,7-regioisomers of dinitro- (1,6-A and 1,7-A) and diamino-substituted perylene bisimides (1,6-B and 1,7-B), and 1-amino-6-nitro- and 1-amino-7-nitroperylene bisimides (1,6-C and 1,7-C) were synthesized. The 1,6-A and 1,7-A regioisomers were successfully separated by high performance liquid chromatography and characterized by 500 MHz 1H-NMR spectroscopy, and subsequently, their red...
متن کاملControlling Photoconductivity in PBI Films by Supramolecular Assembly.
Perylene bisimides (PBIs) self-assemble in solution. The solubility of the PBIs is commonly changed through the choice of substituents at the imide positions. It is generally assumed this substitution does not affect the electronic properties of the PBI, and that the properties of the self-assembled aggregate are essentially that of the isolated molecule. However, substituents do affect the sel...
