Supramolecular Polymers and Chromonic Mesophases Self-Organized from Phosphorescent Cationic Organoplatinum(II) Complexes in Water

摘要

Self-assembly of it-conjugated organic or organometallic molecules through weak noncovalent interactions provides an entry into new classes of supramolecular materials with tunable structures and multiple functionalities. The self-organization of phosphorescent platinurn(II) complexes containing jt-conjugated ligands through extended Pt~(II)…Pt~(II) or ligand-ligand interactions has recently been adopted as an efficient bottom-up approach to construct superstructures and to develop novel molecular materials on the nanoscale or sub-microscale.
