Abstract
Here, amphiphile GCH based on glutamide-cyanostilbene is designed and synthesized, it is found that it can assembly in acetonitrile, and shows circular dichroism signals. After Z-E isomerizaition by UV irradiation, the CD signal of the assembly can be inverted. Unexpectedly, after another heating and cooling process, the circular dichroism signals can be totally inverted even though the E-isomers are in minority. Finally, the molecular dynamics (MD) simulations deeply elucidate the supramolecuar chirality inversion mechanism. This work brings some new insights into the control of chirality inversion, which may provide a perspective for the smart chiroptical materials construction.

Abstract
A photoelectrochemical device was achieved by interfacial self-assembly of macrocyclic π-conjugated copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) on surface of TiO2 nanorod arrays (NRs). The photocurrent density of the elegant TiO2@CuPc NRs photoanode reaches 2.40 mA/cm2 at 1.23 V vs. RHE under the illumination of 100 mW/cm2 from AM 1.5G sun simulator, which is 2.4 times higher than that of the pure TiO2. At the same time, the photoelectrochemical device constructed through this strategy has good stability and the photocurrent density remain almost no decline after 8 h of continuous operation. The Mott-Schottky and LSV curves demonstrate that CuPc act as a co-catalyst for water oxidation and a possible mechanism is proposed for water oxidation based on careful analysis of the detailed results. The holes from VB of TiO2 photogenerated by electrons exciting are consumed by a process in which Cu2+ is oxidized to Cu3+ and Cu4+, and then oxidize water to produce oxygen. CuPc species is considered to be a fast redox mediator to reduce the activation energy of water oxidation in and effectively promote charge separation.

Abstract
Porphyrins are considered to be important scaffolds bridging supramolecular chemistry and chiral chemistry, where chirality selection via physical effects such as directional stirring and spin-coating has aroused particular interest. Nevertheless, these protocols could only work on a limited number of achiral porphyrins. It still remains a formidable challenge to pave a general avenue for the construction of chiral assemblies using achiral porphyrins. By means of a unique Langmuir-Schaefer (LS) technique of a unidirectional compression configuration, we herein have demonstrated that a series of achiral porphyrins could be facilely organized to form chiral interfacial assemblies of controlled supramolecular chirality. It has been disclosed that such a fascinating chirality selection scenario is intimately related to the direction of the compression-generated vortex-like flow, while the compression speed, one of the most significant parameters of the Langmuir technique, contributes less to this issue. With regard to a surface-pressure-dependent chirality selection phenomenon, it is suggested that the directional vortex-like flow generated by lateral compression might play a role in promoting the preferential growth of chiral assemblies showing an enhanced yet controlled CD signal. Our protocol might be, to some extent, a general method for achieving chiral porphyrin assemblies of controlled chirality.

Abstract
Porphyrins are recognized as important π-conjugated molecules correlating supramolecular chemistry, nanoscience, and advanced materials science. So far, as their supramolecular nanoassemblies are addressed, most efforts focus on the photo- or opto-related subjects. Beyond these traditional subjects, it is strongly desired to develop advanced porphyrin nanoassemblies in some other new topics of paramount importance. By means of a surfactant-assisted assembly, we herein show that porphyrins of different central metal ions, 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-pyridyl)-21H,23H-porphine (H2TPyP), zinc 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-pyridyl)-21H,23H-porphine (ZnTPyP), and oxo-[5,10,15,20-tetra(4-pyridyl)porphyrinato]titanium(IV) (TiOTPyP), could be organized to form irregular aggregates, short nanorods, and long yet straight nanofibers, respectively. Remarkably, in terms of an organic ribbon mask technique, we show that such long yet straight TiOTPyP nanofibers could be integrated into single nanofiber-based two-end nanoelectronics. Such simple nanodevices could serve as high-performance sensors of a satisfactory stability, reproducibility, and selectivity for an expeditious detection of vapor-phase H2O2. This provides a new alternative for a fast sensing of vapor-phase H2O2, which is currently an important issue in the fields of anti-terrorism, industrial healthcare, etc. In contrast to the traditional investigations focusing on the photo- or opto-related topics, our work endows porphyrin nanostructures with new opportunities as advanced nanomaterials in terms of portable yet high-performance nanoelectronic sensors, which is an issue of general concern in modern advanced nanomaterials.

Abstract
The Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique is known as an elegant method for fabrication of well-defined layered structures with molecular level precision. Since its discovery the LB method has made an indispensable contribution to surface science, physical chemistry, materials chemistry and nanotechnology. However, recent trends in research might suggest the decline of the LB method as alternate methods for film fabrication such as layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly have emerged. Is LB film technology obsolete? This review is presented in order to challenge this preposterous question. In this review, we summarize recent research on LB and related methods including (i) advanced design for LB films, (ii) LB film as a medium for supramolecular chemistry, (iii) LB technique for nanofabrication and (iv) LB involving advanced nanomaterials. Finally, a comparison between LB and LbL techniques is made. The latter reveals the crucial role played by LB techniques in basic surface science, current advanced material sciences and nanotechnologies.

Abstract
A widely studied achiral porphyrin, which is highly soluble in aqueous solutions (TPPS4), is shown to self-assemble into helical nanotubes. These were imaged by electron cryo-microscopy and a state-of-the-art image analysis allows building a map at ∼5 Å resolution, one of the highest obtained so far for molecular materials. The authors were able to trace the apparent symmetry breaking to existing nuclei in the "as received samples", while carefully purified samples show that both handnesses occur in equal amounts.

Abstract
The exploration of nanostructures and nanomaterials is essential to the development of advanced functions. For such innovations, nanoarchitectonics has been proposed as a novel paradigm of nanotechnology aimed at assembling nanoscale structural units into predesigned configurations or arrangements. In this Feature Article, we provide an overview of several recent research works from the viewpoint of interfacial nanoarchitectonics with features developed in lateral directions or grown in vertical directions with construction on solid, static, or flexible dynamic surfaces. Lateral nanoarchitectonics at a static interface provides molecular organization by bottom-up nanoarchitectonics and can also be used to realize device integration by top-down nanoarchitectonics. In particular, in the latter case, the fabrication of novel devices, so-called atomic switches, are introduced as a demonstration of atomic-level electronics. Lateral nanoarchitectonics at dynamic interfaces is exemplified by 2D molecular patterning and molecular machine operation induced by macroscopic motion. The dynamic nature of interfaces enables us to operate molecular-sized machines by macroscopic mechanical stimuli such as our hand motion, which we refer to as hand-operated nanotechnology. Vertical nanoarchitectonics is mainly discussed in relation to layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly. By using this technique, we can assemble a variety of functional materials in ultrathin film structures of defined thickness and layer sequence. The organization of biomolecules (or even living cells) within thin films and their integration with device structures is exemplified. Finally, the anticipated research directions of interfacial nanoarchitectonics are described.

Abstract
Chiral coordination polymers (CPs) have been prepared at the air-water interface by using the ligand of 1,4-bis(9-O-dihydroquininyl)anthraquinone [(DHQ)2AQN] and its enantiomer of 1,4-bis(9-O-dihydroquinidinyl)anthraquinone [(DHQD)2AQN] as linkers and AgNO3 as the connector. Surface pressure-area isotherms indicated that both ligands could form insoluble monomolecular layers on the pure water and AgNO3 subphase surfaces. Compared with the average molecular area on the pure water surface, that of the ligand increased about 10% when its monolayer was formed on the AgNO3 subphase surface due to the formation of Ag-(DHQ)2AQN and Ag-(DHQD)2AQN chiral CPs. These monolayers were deposited on the quartz, Si, and indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate surfaces via the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method. The as-prepared LB films were characterized by using UV-vis absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy, circular dichroism and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, as well as by using a scanning electron microscope and atomic force microscope. Broad fluorescence emissions were measured at about 365 and 525 nm for the ligands in the methanol solutions. The second emission red shifted to about 555 nm in the LB films of both pure ligands and their Ag-directed CPs. A couple of well-reversible redox waves were recorded and centered at about -0.2 ~ -0.3 V (vs Ag/AgCl) for the ITO electrode covered by the LB films of (DHQ)2AQN, (DHQD)2AQN, or of the Ag(+)-directed CPs, which were designated to one electron transfer process of the ligands. Small aggregates were observed for the LB films prepared at the lower surface pressures, which were compressed to form more uniform two-dimensional layers at the higher surface pressures.

Abstract
Nanoscaled two-dimensional (2D) chiral architectures are increasingly receiving scientific interest, because of their potential applications in many domains. In this paper, we present a new method for constructing 2D chiral architectures on surface. Based on in situ Schiff-base reaction of achiral dialdehyde with two types of achiral amines at the solid/liquid interface, two chiral species have been directly formed and confirmed by means of a scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) technique. This work introduces a novel strategy to construct 2D surface chirality, which might be applied in fabricating functional films and nanoelectronic devices.

Abstract
The self-assembly and induced supramolecular chirality of meso-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (TSPP) on both single-wall (SWCNT) and multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) are investigated. Under mild pH conditions (pH 3), TSPP forms aggregates when CNTs are dispersed in an aqueous solution containing positively charged polyelectrolytes such as poly-L-lysine (PLL) or poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH). Evidence for the geometry of the porphyrin aggregates is obtained from absorption spectra, whereby the fingerprints of J- and H-aggregates are clearly seen only in the presence of smaller-diameter nanotubes. J-aggregates are better stabilized with PLL, whereas in the presence of PAH mainly H-aggregates prevail. Excited-state interactions within these nanohybrids are studied by steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence. The porphyrin emission intensity in the nanohybrid solution is significantly quenched compared to that of TSPP alone, and this implies strong electronic interaction between CNTs and porphyrin molecules. Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) further supports that porphyrin arrays are associated with the MWCNT sidewalls wrapped in PLL. In the case of the SWCNT hybrid, spherical structures associated with longer fluorescence lifetime appeared after one week, indicative of H-aggregates of TSPP. The latter are the result of π-π stacking of porphyrin units on neighboring nanotubes facilitated by the strong tendency of these nanotubes to interact with each other. These results highlight the importance of optimum dimensions and surface-area architectures of CNTs in the control/stability of the porphyrin aggregates with promising properties for light harvesting.

Abstract
Triad hybrid multilayers containing the light sensitizers of zinc tetrapyridylporphyrin (ZnTPyP) and pyridine-functionalized TiO(2) (TiO(2)-Py) nanoparticles were constructed on substrate surfaces with the use of Pd(II) ions as the connectors using the layer-by-layer (LBL) method. The assembly process was monitored using ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption and X-ray photoelectron spectra as well as scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The content of the pyridine substituents in the TiO(2)-Py nanocomposites was about 2% (w/w). The Soret absorption band of ZnTPyP was 24 nm red-shifted in the hybrid multilayers due to a strong intermolecular electronic coupling interaction among porphyrin macrocycles or porphyrin macrocycle/TiO(2)-Py nanoparticles. The average surface density of each ZnTPyP layer was about 1.4 × 10(-10) mol/cm(2). Aggregation of the small TiO(2)-Py nanoparticles to larger domains with sizes up to hundreds of nanometers occurred in the hybrid multilayers; however, such an aggregation behavior was weaker than that in the solutions. The quartz substrate modified with the as-prepared Pd/ZnTPyP/Pd/TiO(2)-Py triad hybrid multilayers was used as a heterogeneous photocatalyst for the degradation of methyl orange (MO) under irradiation (λ > 420 nm) at room temperature with a catalytic efficiency of about 1.3 × 10(-3) MO/ZnTPyP·s. Without the use of the filter, the catalytic efficiency increased because both ZnTPyP and TiO(2)-Py nanocomposites acted as the light sensitizers. It is suggested that the present heterogeneous catalyst has the advantages of facile separation, high stability, structural controllability on the molecular and nanoscale level, and good recyclability.

Abstract
In this paper, in terms of the concentration of an aqueous solution of a surfactant, we investigate the self-assembly behavior of a porphyrin, 5, 10, 15, 20-tetra(4-pyridyl)-21H, 23H-porphine [H2TPyP], by using an oil/water system as the medium. We find that when a chloroform solution of H2TPyP is dropwise added into an aqueous solution of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide [CTAB] with a lower concentration, a large amount of irregular nanoarchitectures, together with a small amount of well-defined shuttle-like nanostructures, hollow nanospheres, and nanotubes, could be produced. While a moderate amount of shuttle-like nanostructures accompanied by a few irregular nanoarchitectures, solid nanospheres, and nanorods are produced when a CTAB aqueous solution in moderate concentration is employed, in contrast, a great quantity of shuttle-like nanostructures together with a negligible amount of solid nanospheres, nanofibers, and irregular nanostructures are manufactured when a high-concentration CTAB aqueous solution is involved. An explanation on the basis of the molecular geometry of H2TPyP and in terms of the intermolecular π-π interactions between H2TPyP units, and hydrophobic interactions between CTAB and H2TPyP has been proposed. The investigation gives deep insights into the self-assembly behavior of porphyrins in an oil/water system and provides important clues concerning the design of appropriate porphyrins when related subjects are addressed. Our investigation suggests that an oil/aqueous system might be an efficient medium for producing unique organic-based nanostructures.

Abstract
Multilayers of manganese(III) porphyrin-linked poly(vinylpyridinium) (MnTMPyP-PVPMe) polyelectrolyte and poly(styrenesulfonic acid-o-maleic) acid (PSS) have been assembled on gold, quartz, and indium tin oxide surfaces by a layer-by-layer (LBL) technique. The assembly process was monitored by measuring their absorption spectra and frequency change after each assembly, both of which confirmed the formation of three-dimensional MnTMPyP-PVPMe/PSS multilayers. The Soret absorption band of porphyrin red shifted about 8 nm in the multilayer compared with that in the dilute aqueous solution. The average mass changes for each assembly of MnTMPyP-PVPMe and PSS were estimated to be about 2.9 and 0.25 μg/cm(2), respectively. X-ray photoelectron spectra revealed that the as-prepared multilayers were composed of S 2p, C 1s, N 1s, O 1s, and Mn 2p, corresponding to polymers of MnTMPyP-PVPMe and PSS. A rough surface was observed after the assembly of MnTMPyP-PVPMe on the gold surface, but it became smoother when the PSS layer was adsorbed. The significant difference in the mass change and film morphology after the assembly of MnTMPyP-PVPMe compared to those after the assembly of PSS was ascribed to the reason that the MnTMPyP-PVPMe polyelectrolyte contained large metalloporphyrin macrocycles, which were axially coordinated to the pyridyl substituents of the PVP polymeric backbones. The cyclic voltammograms revealed two couples of redox waves in the phosphate electrolyte solution at pH 11, which corresponded to the electron-transfer processes of Mn(II)/Mn(III) and Mn(III)/Mn(IV) of polymeric manganese porphyrin MnTMPyP-PVPMe. The charge-transfer process was also investigated. Finally, the present MnTMPyP-PVPMe/PSS multilayers were used as a heterogeneous catalyst for the decoloration of an azo dye.

Abstract
Controlling the organization of molecular building blocks at the nanometer level is of utmost importance, not only from the viewpoint of scientific curiosity, but also for the development of next-generation organic devices with electrical, optical, chemical, or biological functions. Self-assembly offers great potential for the manufacture of nanoarchitectures (nanostructures and nanopatterns) over large areas by using low-energy and inexpensive spontaneous processes. However, self-assembled structures in 3D media, such as solutions or solids, are not easily incorporated into current device-oriented nanotechnology. The scope of this review is therefore to introduce the expanding methodology for the construction of thin-film-based nanoarchitectures on solid surfaces and to try to address a general concept with emphasis on the availability of dynamic interfaces for the creation and manipulation of nanoarchitectures. In this review, the strategies for the construction of nanostructures, the control and manipulation of nanopatterns, and the application of nanoarchitectures are described; the construction strategies are categorized into three classes: i) π-conjugated molecular assembly in two dimensions, ii) bio-directed molecular assembly on surfaces, and iii) recent thin-film preparation technologies.

Abstract
Interfacial molecular assemblies of eight atypical amphiphilic porphyrins, substituted with hydrophobic or hydrophilic substituents but without long alkyl chains on their molecular skeletons, have been investigated in terms of supramolecular chiralty generation and amplification. It is found that all of the originally organized interfacial molecular assemblies display very weak or undetectable supramolecular chirality. Interestingly, for those porphyrins bearing hydrophilic substituents, it is found that their molecular assemblies display distinct supramolecular chirality when applying a thermal annealing treatment. In contrast, for those bearing hydrophobic substituents, the formed assemblies remain achiral after similar treatment. This investigation suggests that the hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity of the substituents of the atypical amphiphilies could affect the occurrence of the interfacial mirror symmetry breaking substantially. It discloses that, although some of the interfacial assemblies are superficially achiral, a thermal annealing treatment could endow them with evident supramolecular chirality.

Abstract
The proposal that molecules can perform electronic functions in devices such as diodes, rectifiers, wires, capacitors, or serve as functional materials for electronic or magnetic memory, has stimulated intense research across physics, chemistry, and engineering for over 35 years. Because biology uses porphyrins and metalloporphyrins as catalysts, small molecule transporters, electrical conduits, and energy transducers in photosynthesis, porphyrins are an obvious class of molecules to investigate for molecular electronic functions. Of the numerous kinds of molecules under investigation for molecular electronics applications, porphyrins and their related macrocycles are of particular interest because they are robust and their electronic properties can be tuned by chelation of a metal ion and substitution on the macrocycle. The other porphyrinoids have equally variable and adjustable photophysical properties, thus photonic applications are potentiated. At least in the near term, realistic architectures for molecular electronics will require self-organization or nanoprinting on surfaces. This review concentrates on self-organized porphyrinoids as components of working electronic devices on electronically active substrates with particular emphasis on the effect of surface, molecular design, molecular orientation and matrix on the detailed electronic properties of single molecules.
