Facile one-pot synthesis of polyethyleneimine functionalized α-FeOOH nanoraft consisted of single-layer parallel-aligned ultrathin nanowires for efficient removal of Cr (VI): Synergy of reduction and adsorption.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) iron oxide-hydroxide (FeOOH) nanomaterials as low-cost and environmental-friendly composites are promising materials for application in heavy metal elimination. However, developing 2D FeOOH adsorbents with high adsorption capacity and excellent durability toward Cr (VI) removal is still a challenge due to the intrinsically non-layered structure. Here, a novel polyethyleneimine (PEI) functionalized 2D single-layer nano-raft-like α-FeOOH (α-FeOOH NF) consisted of parallel-aligned ultrathin nanowires was obtained via a facile one-pot hydrothermal approach. It was found that the 2D α-FeOOH NF nanostructure was formed by an in-plane iterative self-assembly mechanism, where α-FeOOH nanoparticles acted as intermediates and iterative seeds with anisotropic growth. The as-prepared 2D α-FeOOH NF possessed porous structure and high surface area, which provided a strong ability to capture the Cr (VI) ions in water. Benefiting from the unique structure and PEI modification, it exhibited fast adsorption kinetic rate, high reusability, and high adsorption capacity toward Cr(VI) removal. The removal mechanism involved adsorption and reduction process. Besides, the molecular dynamic simulations disclosed a facet-dependent Cr(VI) adsorption behavior of α-FeOOH. The maximum adsorption capacity was 67.1 mg/g and the removal efficiency still maintained 83.9 % in the fifth cycle. This work demonstrated that 2D α-FeOOH NF could be a promising adsorbent for Cr(VI) removal.

Abstract
It is reported herein the synthesis of a novel amphiphilic diblock peptoid bearing a terminal conjugated oligoaniline and its self-assembly into small-diameter (D ≈ 35 nm) crystalline nanotubes with high aspect ratios (>30). It is shown that both tetraaniline (TANI)-peptoid and bianiline (BANI)-peptoid triblock molecules self-assemble in solution to form rugged highly crystalline nanotubes that are very stable to protonic acid doping and de-doping processes. The similarity of the crystalline tubular structure of the nanotube assemblies revealed by electron microscopy imaging, and X-ray diffraction analysis of the nanotube assemblies of TANI-functionalized peptoids and nonfunctionalized peptoids showed that the peptoid is an efficient ordered structure directing motif for conjugated oligomers. Films of doped TANI-peptoid nanotubes has a dc conductivity of ca. 95 mS cm-1 , while the thin films of doped un-assembled TANI-peptoids show a factor of 5.6 lower conductivity, demonstrating impact of the favorable crystalline ordering of the assemblies on electrical transport. These results demonstrate that peptoid-directed supramolecular assembly of tethered π-conjugated oligo(aniline) exemplify a novel general strategy for creating rugged ordered and complex nanostructures that have useful electronic and optoelectronic properties.

Abstract
Recent advances in wearable and implantable electronics have increased the demand for biocompatible integrated energy storage systems. Conducting polymers, such as polyaniline (PANi), have been suggested as promising electrode materials for flexible biocompatible energy storage systems, based on their intrinsic structural flexibility and potential polymer chain compatibility with biological interfaces. However, due to structural disorder triggering insufficient electronic conductivity and moderate electrochemical stability, PANi still cannot fully satisfy the requirements for flexible and biocompatible energy storage systems. Herein, we report a biocompatible physiological electrolyte activated flexible supercapacitor encompassing crystalline tetra-aniline (c-TANi) as the active electrode material, which significantly enhances the specific capacitance and electrochemical cycling stability with chloride electrochemical interactions. The crystallization of TANi endows it with sufficient electronic conductivity (8.37 S cm-1) and a unique Cl- dominated redox charge storage mechanism. Notably, a fully self-healable and biocompatible supercapacitor has been assembled by incorporating polyethylene glycol (PEG) with c-TANi as a self-healable electrode and a ferric-ion cross-linked sodium polyacrylate (Fe3+-PANa)/0.9 wt% NaCl as a gel electrolyte. The as-prepared device exhibits a remarkable capacitance retention even after multiple cut/healing cycles. With these attractive features, the c-TANi electrode presents a promising approach to meeting the power requirements for wearable or implantable electronics.

Abstract
L-Tyrosine diketopiperazine (DKP) derivative 1 was synthesized, and the aggregation and photoluminescence behaviors were examined. A solution of 1 in tetrahydrofuran (THF) gradually became viscous at room temperature, and turned into the gel state 5 hours after preparation, as confirmed by dynamic viscoelasticity measurement. A solution of 1 in THF exhibited photoluminescence. Fibrous patterns were observed by transmission electron, atomic force and fluorescence microscopies. Dynamic light scattering, semiempirical molecular orbital and density functional theory calculations, as well as molecular dynamics simulations, indicated aggregate formation. This was attributed to intermolecular hydrogen bonding, mainly between the DKP moieties and partly between the urethane moieties, resulting in π-orbital overlap of the terminal phenyl groups leading to photoluminescence.

Abstract
Hydrogel materials have been employed as biological scaffolds for tissue regeneration across a wide range of applications. Their versatility and biomimetic properties make them an optimal choice for treating the complex and delicate milieu of neural tissue damage. Aside from finely tailored hydrogel properties, which aim to mimic healthy physiological tissue, a minimally invasive delivery method is essential to prevent off-target and surgery-related complications. The specific class of injectable hydrogels termed self-assembling peptides (SAPs), provide an ideal combination of in situ polymerization combined with versatility for biofunctionlization, tunable physicochemical properties, and high cytocompatibility. This review identifies design criteria for neural scaffolds based upon key cellular interactions with the neural extracellular matrix (ECM), with emphasis on aspects that are reproducible in a biomaterial environment. Examples of the most recent SAPs and modification methods are presented, with a focus on biological, mechanical, and topographical cues. Furthermore, SAP electrical properties and methods to provide appropriate electrical and electrochemical cues are widely discussed, in light of the endogenous electrical activity of neural tissue as well as the clinical effectiveness of stimulation treatments. Recent applications of SAP materials in neural repair and electrical stimulation therapies are highlighted, identifying research gaps in the field of hydrogels for neural regeneration.

Abstract
Since block copolymers are able to self-assemble into various polymeric architectures, it is intriguing to explore a unique self-assembly strategy for polymers. Two different metallic oxides [manganese dioxide (MnO2) and zinc oxide (ZnO)] are displayed herein to demonstrate this self-assembly mechanism of polymers. In situ generation of metallic oxides induces self-assembly of block copolymers to form polymeric hybrid micelles with tunable stability in aqueous solutions. These final ZnO-cross-linked polymeric micelles exhibited a high drug loading capacity of 0.41 mg mg-1 toward doxorubicin (DOX), whereas DOX-loaded ZnO-cross-linked polymeric micelles could be broken down into Zn2+ and polymer scraps, which facilitated drug release in tumor microenvironments. Both in vitro and in vivo investigations showed that the drug-loaded ZnO-cross-linked polymeric micelles effectively suppressed tumor growth. Accordingly, the present study demonstrates a novel strategy of polymer self-assembly for fabricating polymeric architectures that can potentially provide insight for developing other polymeric architectures.

Abstract
The control of morphology in bioinspired chromophore assemblies is key to the rational design of functional materials for light harvesting. We investigate here morphological changes in perylene monoimide chromophore assemblies during thermal annealing in aqueous environments of high ionic strength to screen electrostatic repulsion. We found that annealing under these conditions leads to the growth of extra-large ribbon-shaped crystalline supramolecular polymers of widths from about 100 nm to several micrometers and lengths from 1 to 10 μm while still maintaining a unimolecular thickness. This growth process was monitored by variable-temperature absorbance spectroscopy, synchrotron X-ray scattering, and confocal microscopy. The extra-large single-crystal-like supramolecular polymers are highly porogenic, thus creating loosely packed hydrogel scaffolds that showed greatly enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen production with turnover numbers as high as 13 500 over ∼110 h compared to 7500 when smaller polymers are used. Our results indicate great functional opportunities in thermally and pathway-controlled supramolecular polymerization.

Abstract
Photodetectors selective to the polarization empower breakthroughs in sensing technology for target identification. However, the realization of polarization-sensitive photodetectors based on intrinsically anisotropic crystal structure or extrinsically anisotropic device pattern requires complicated epitaxy and etching processes, which limit scalable production and application. Here, solution-processed PEA2 MA4 (Sn0.5 Pb0.5 )5 I16 (PEA= phenylethylammonium, MA= methylammonium) polycrystalline film is probed as photoactive layer toward sensing polarized photon from 300 to 1050 nm. The growth of the PEA2 MA4 (Sn0.5 Pb0.5 )5 I16 crystal occurs in confined crystallographic orientation of the (202) facet upon the assistance of NH4 SCN and NH4 Cl, enhancing anisotropic photoelectric properties. Therefore, the photodetector achieves a polarization ratio of 0.41 and dichroism ratio (Imax /Imin ) of 2.4 at 900 nm. At 520 nm, the Imax /Imin even surpasses the one of the perovskite crystalline films, 1.8 and ≈1.2, respectively. It is worth noting that the superior figure-of-merits possess a response width of 900 kHz, Ion /Ioff ratio of ≈3 × 108 , linear dynamic range from 0.15 nW to 12 mW, noise current of 8.28 × 10-13 A × Hz-0.5 , and specific detectivity of 1.53 × 1012 Jones, which demonstrate high resolution and high speed for weak signal sensing and imaging. The proof of concept in polarized imaging confirms that the polarization-sensitive photodetector meets the requirements for practical application in target recognition.

Aqueous Self-Assembly of Block Copolymers to Form Manganese Oxide-Based Polymeric Vesicles for Tumor Microenvironment-Activated Drug Delivery. NANO-MICRO LETTERS 2020; 12:124. [PMID: 34138110 PMCID: PMC7770723 DOI: 10.1007/s40820-020-00447-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2020] [Accepted: 04/21/2020] [Indexed: 05/04/2023]
Abstract
HIGHLIGHTS The formation of manganese oxide induces self-assembly of block copolymers to form polymeric vesicles. The polymeric vesicles possessed strong stability and high drug loading capacity. The drug-loaded polymeric vesicles have been demonstrated, especially in in vivo studies, to exhibit a higher efficacy of tumor suppression without known cardiotoxicity. ABSTRACT Molecular self-assembly is crucially fundamental to nature. However, the aqueous self-assembly of polymers is still a challenge. To achieve self-assembly of block copolymers [(polyacrylic acid–block–polyethylene glycol–block–polyacrylic acid (PAA68–b–PEG86–b–PAA68)] in an aqueous phase, manganese oxide (MnO2) is first generated to drive phase separation of the PAA block to form the PAA68–b–PEG86–b–PAA68/MnO2 polymeric assembly that exhibits a stable structure in a physiological medium. The polymeric assembly exhibits vesicular morphology with a diameter of approximately 30 nm and high doxorubicin (DOX) loading capacity of approximately 94%. The transformation from MnO2 to Mn2+ caused by endogenous glutathione (GSH) facilitates the disassembly of PAA68–b–PEG86–b–PAA68/MnO2 to enable its drug delivery at the tumor sites. The toxicity of DOX-loaded PAA68–b–PEG86–b–PAA68/MnO2 to tumor cells has been verified in vitro and in vivo. Notably, drug-loaded polymeric vesicles have been demonstrated, especially in in vivo studies, to overcome the cardiotoxicity of DOX. We expect this work to encourage the potential application of polymer self-assembly.

Abstract
A charge-reversal amphiphilic pillar[5]arene, P5NH-DCA, bearing 10 charge-reversal headgroups is reported. It targets the cell membrane of cancer cells and selectively destroys the cancer cells by disrupting the membrane. In the acidic tumor microenvironment, the headgroup charge of P5NH-DCA reversed from negative to positive owing to hydrolysis of the acid-labile amide group. The hydrolyzed product bearing multiple positive charges can bind to the cell membrane and then disrupt the membrane of cancer cells with high efficiency. However, under the neutral microenvironment of healthy cells, the negatively charged P5NH-DCA remains stable and the cytotoxicity is considerably reduced. The strategy killing the cancer cells by membrane disruption may represent a new route of cancer chemotherapy.

Abstract
PEGylated tetra(aniline) ABA triblock structure PEG-TANI-PEG (2) consisting of tetra(aniline) (TANI) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) was synthesized by coupling the tosylated-PEG to boc-protected NH2/NH2 TANI (1) through a simple nucleophilic substitution reaction. Deprotection of 2 resulted in a leucoemeraldine base state of TANI (2-LEB), which was oxidized to stable emeraldine base (2-EB) state. 2-EB was doped with 1 M HCl to emeraldine salt (2-ES) state. FTIR, 1H and 13C NMR and UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy, and MS (ESI) was used for structural characterization. The synthesized triblock structure exhibited good electroactivity as confirmed by CV and UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy. Self-assembling of the triblock structure in aqueous medium was assessed by DLS, TEM, and SEM. Spherical aggregates were observed with variable sizes depicting the effect of concentration and oxidation of 2-LEB. Further, the aggregates showed acid/base sensitivity as evaluated by doping and dedoping of 2-EB with 1 M HCl and 1 M NH4OH, respectively. Future applications in drug delivery and sensors are envisaged for such tunable self-assembled nanostructures in aqueous media.

Abstract
The development of stimuli-responsive amphiphilic supramolecular nanostructures is an attractive target for systems based on light-absorbing chromophores that can function as photosensitizers in water. We report here on a water soluble supramolecular carboxylated perylene monoimide system in which charge can be switched significantly by a change in pH. This was accomplished by substituting the perylene core with an ionizable hydroxyl group. In acidic environments, crystalline supramolecular nanoribbons with dimensions on the order of 500 × 50 × 2 nm form readily, while in basic solution the additional electrostatic repulsion of the ionized hydroxyl reduces assemblies to very small dimensions on the order of only several nanometers. The HOMO/LUMO levels were also found to be sensitive to pH; in acidic media the HOMO/LUMO levels are -5.65 and -3.70 eV respectively versus vacuum, whereas is in basic conditions they are -4.90 and -3.33 eV, respectively. Utilizing the assemblies as photosensitizers in photocatalytic production of hydrogen with [Mo3S13]2- as a catalyst at a pH of 4, H2 was generated with a turnover number of 125 after 18 hours. Charge switching the assemblies at a pH of 9-10 and using an iron porphyrin catalyst, protons could again be reduced to hydrogen and CO2 was reduced to CO with a turnover number of 30. The system investigated offers an example of dynamic photosensitizing assemblies that can drive reactions in both acidic and basic media.

Abstract
Cubic metallacages were arranged into multidimensional (one-, two-, and three-dimensional) suprastructures via multistep assembly. Four new shape-controllable, hybrid metallacages with modified substituents and tunable electronic properties were prepared using dicarboxylate ligands with various substituents (sodium sulfonate, nitro, methoxyl, and amine), tetra-(4-pyridylphenyl) ethylene, and cis-(PEt3)2Pt(OTf)2. The as-prepared metallacages were used as building blocks for further assembly. Diverse suprastructures with tunable emissions (λmax from 451 to 519 nm) and various substituents (-SO3Na, -NO2, -OCH3, and -NH2) were prepared depending on the substituents and solvents used.

Abstract
In this focus review we aim to highlight an exciting class of materials, electroactive amphiphiles (EAAs). This class of functional amphiphilic molecules has been the subject of sporadic investigations over the last few decades, but little attempt has been made to date to gather or organise these investigations into a logical fashion. Here we attempted to gather the most important contributions, provide a framework in which to discuss them, and, more importantly, point towards the areas where we believe these EAAs will contribute to solving wider scientific problems and open new opportunities. Our discussions cover materials based on low molecular weight ferrocenes, viologens and anilines, as well as examples of polymeric and supramolecular EAAs. With the advances of modern analytical techniques and new tools for modelling and understanding optoelectronic properties, we believe that this area of research is ready for further exploration and exploitation.

Abstract
Recent advances in the preparation of shape-shifting and size-growing nanostructures are hot topics in development of nanoscience, because many intelligent functions are always relied on their shape and dimension. Here we report a tunable manipulation of sequential self-assembled transformation in situ via a hierarchical assembly strategy based on a living thiol-disulfide exchange reaction. By tailoring the external stimuli, the reactive points can be generated at the ends of initially unimolecular micelles, which subsequently drive the pre-assemblies to periodically proceed into the hierarchically micellar connection, axial growth, bending, and cyclization processes from nanoscopic assemblies to macroscopic particles. Of particular interest would be systems that acquired the shape control and size adjustment of self-assemblies after termination or reactivation of disulfide reshuffling reaction by regulating external stimuli whenever needed. Such a hierarchical strategy for self-assembled evolution is universally applicable not only for other disulfide-linked dendritic polymers but also for exploitation of biological applications.

Abstract
Having control over the supramolecular chirality through multiexternal stimulators provides many possibilities in realizing functional chiral materials. Herein, the supramolecular chirality of nanotwists comprising PA centered with 1,4-phenyldicarboxamide bearing two l/d-helicogenic alanine motifs and achiral COOH at each terminus of the alanine arms is modulated by solvent, temperature, and ultrasound. The modulations are mainly due to the hydrogen bonds among gelators and solvent-gelator interactions, resulting in changes of the molecular arrangement and subsequent self-assembled nanostructures. Typically, the gel of PA in ethyl acetate prepared by ultrasonication method exhibits thixotropic property due to the participation of ethyl acetate in the self-assembly process, resulting in relatively flexible and tolerant networks. This study provides a simplistic way to control the handedness of chiral nanostructures and a rational design of the self-assembly system with multistimuli-responsive supramolecular chirality.

Abstract
A charge-reversal amphiphile exhibiting charge conversion from negative to positive induced by pH is reported. It selectively kills cancer cells through cell membrane disruption. This amphiphile comprising an alkyl chain and anionic headgroup of acid-labile β-carboxylic amide (C16N-DCA) was prepared. In the microenvironment of normal cells with pH 7.4, the negatively charged C16N-DCA exhibited considerably reduced cytotoxicity. However, in the acidic microenvironment of cancer cells with pH 6.5-6.8, the headgroup charge of C16N-DCA changed from negative to positive under hydrolysis of the acid-labile amide group. As a result, the generated cationic amphiphile displayed significant killing of cancer cells by disrupting their cell membranes. Such pH-selective cell killing bioactivity represents a new route of chemotherapy for anticancer strategies.

Abstract
Supramolecular light-absorbing nanostructures are useful building blocks for the design of next-generation artificial photosynthetic systems. Development of such systems requires a detailed understanding of how molecular packing influences the material's optoelectronic properties. We describe a series of crystalline supramolecular nanostructures in which the substituents on their monomeric units strongly affects morphology, ordering kinetics, and exciton behavior. By designing constitutionally-isomeric perylene monoimide (PMI) amphiphiles, the effect of side chain sterics on nanostructure crystallization was studied. Molecules with short amine linked alkyl-tails rapidly crystallize upon dissolution in water, while bulkier tails require the addition of salt to screen electrostatic repulsion and annealing to drive crystallization. A PMI monomer bearing a 3-pentylamine tail was found to possess a unique structure that results in strongly red-shifted absorbance, indicative of charge-transfer exciton formation. This particular supramolecular structure was found to have an enhanced ability to photosensitize a thiomolybdate, [(NH4)2Mo3S13], catalyst to generate hydrogen gas.

Abstract
An addressable packing parameter approach was developed for reversibly tuning the self-assembly of oligo(aniline)-based supra-amphiphiles.
We present a newly developed approach to non-covalently address the packing parameter of an electroactive amphiphile. The pH-responsive reversible switching of a tetra(aniline)-based cationic amphiphile, TANI-pentyl trimethylammonium bromide (TANI-PTAB), between self-assembled vesicles and nanowires by acid/base chemistry in aqueous solution is used to exemplify this approach. Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) was selected as a prototypical acid to form emeraldine salt (ES) state (TANI(TFA)2-PTAB) vesicles for this new class of small-molecule supramolecular amphiphiles. UV-vis-NIR spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), tapping-mode atomic force microscopy (AFM), and fluorescence spectroscopy were used to investigate the reversible structural transformation from vesicles to nanowires. We show that utilising different protonic acid-dopants for TANI-PTAB can regulate the packing parameter, and thus the final self-assembled structures, in a predictable fashion. We envisage potential application of this concept as smart and switchable delivery systems.

Abstract
Peripheral nerve injuries cause devastating problems for the quality of patients' lives, and regeneration following damage to the peripheral nervous system is limited depending on the degree of the damage. Use of nanobiomaterials can provide therapeutic approaches for the treatment of peripheral nerve injuries. Electroactive biomaterials, in particular, can provide a promising cure for the regeneration of nerve defects. Here, a supramolecular electroactive nanosystem with tetra(aniline) (TA)-containing peptide nanofibers was developed and utilized for nerve regeneration. Self-assembled TA-conjugated peptide nanofibers demonstrated electroactive behavior. The electroactive self-assembled peptide nanofibers formed a well-defined three-dimensional nanofiber network mimicking the extracellular matrix of the neuronal cells. Neurite outgrowth was improved on the electroactive TA nanofiber gels. The neural differentiation of PC-12 cells was more advanced on electroactive peptide nanofiber gels, and these biomaterials are promising for further use in therapeutic neural regeneration applications.

Abstract
The ability to achieve exquisite control over polymer building blocks within multicompartment magnetite nanocomposites (NCs) to afford predictable and ordered packing hierarchical structures remains a significant challenge for the design of NCs. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop new types of nano-dimensional assemblies that undergo responsive shape shift, size, phase, and morphological transitions, especially for processes that are triggered by biologically relevant stimuli such as ionic gradients to meet the demand for diverse applications. Accordingly, we report an unprecedented concept for the preparation of salt-responsive magnetite/polyaniline composite nanoassemblies with chemically distinct dual-compartment structures. The size, shape, and nano-dimensional phase separation of the PANI assemblies within NCs were adjusted in a facile manner with incremental changes in salt gradients using NaCl(aq). Composition effects bestow desirable diversiform shape, size, and phase behavior of the incorporated conductive polymer via dynamic H-bonding. The size, shape, and superparamagnetic character of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) are unaffected by a "salting-in" process. The mechanism, gradual morphological evolution, interchangeable nanophase separation, and ion-stimulated disassembly of PANI building blocks for these magneto/ion-responsive polymer-composites at elevated ionic strength are strongly supported by DLS, Raman spectroscopy, TEM, and equilibrium dye (MB/MO) recognition studies.

Abstract
Conjugated oligomers of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) are attractive materials for tissue engineering applications and as model systems for studying the properties of the widely used polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene). We report here the facile synthesis of a series of keto-acid end-capped oligo-EDOT derivatives (n = 2-7) through a combination of a glyoxylation end-capping strategy and iterative direct arylation chain extension. Importantly, these structures not only represent the longest oligo-EDOTs reported but are also bench stable, in contrast to previous reports on such oligomers. The constructs reported here can undergo subsequent derivatization for integration into higher-order architectures, such as those required for tissue engineering applications. The synthesis of hetero-bifunctional constructs, as well as those containing mixed-monomer units, is also reported, allowing further complexity to be installed in a controlled manner. Finally, we describe the optical and electrochemical properties of these oligomers and demonstrate the importance of the keto-acid in determining their characteristics.

Abstract
We have prepared a simple star-shaped oligo(aniline) (TDPB) and characterised it in detail by MALDI-TOF MS, UV/Vis/NIR spectroscopy, time-dependent DFT, cyclic voltammetry and EPR spectroscopy. TDPB is part of an underdeveloped class of π-conjugated molecules with great potential for organic electronics, display and sensor applications. It is redox active and reacts with acids to form radical cations. Acid-doped TDPB shows behaviour similar to discotic liquid crystals, with X-ray scattering investigations revealing columnar self-assembled arrays. The combination of unpaired electrons and supramolecular stacking suggests that star-shaped oligo(aniline)s like TDPB have the potential to form conducting nanowires and organic magnetic materials.

Abstract
Two chiral complexes (1-SDS and 1-SDBS) were prepared via the ionic self-assembly of a chiral perylene diimide tecton with oppositely charged surfactants. The effect of surfactant tail architecture on the self-assembly properties and supramolecular structure was investigated in detail using UV-vis, IR, circular dichroism, light microscopy, X-ray diffraction studies, and electron microscopy. The results obtained revealed the molecular chirality of the parent perylene tecton could be translated into supramolecular helical chirality of the resulting complexes via primary ionic interactions through careful choice of solvent and concentration. Differing solvent-dependent aggregation behavior was observed for these complexes as a result of the different possible noncovalent interactions via the surfactant alkyl tails. The results presented in this study demonstrate that ionic self-assembly (ISA) is a facile strategy for the production of chiral supramolecular materials based on perylene diimides. The structure-function relationship is easily explored here due to the wide selection and easy availability of common surfactants.
