Abstract
Aggregation of amphiphilic polymers in block-selective solvents produces different nanostructures, which have been studied extensively for wide-ranging applications. Nevertheless, such immiscibility-driven aggregation does not endow them with the desired structural precision, predictability or surface functional group exposure, which significantly impact their functional applications. More recently, biomimetic folded structures of synthetic macromolecules (mostly oligomers) have come to the fore, but such studies have been limited to probe the secondary structures. In this article, we have collated hierarchical structures of foldamers, especially highlighting our recent contribution to the field of chain-folding regulated assembly of segmented polyurethanes (PUs) and their functional applications. A series of such PUs have been discussed, which contain a segmented hydrocarbon backbone and alternately placed pendant solvophilic groups. In either water or highly non-polar solvents (TCE, MCH), depending on the nature of the pendant group, they exhibit folded structures stabilized by intra-chain H-bonding. Hierarchical assembly of such folded chains by inter-chain H-bonding and/or π-stacking leads to the formation of well-defined nanostructures with functional applications ranging from organic optoelectronics to biomaterials. For example, a segmented PU with appended naphthalene-diimide (NDI) chromophores showed a pleated structure in MCH, which helped in organization of the NDI chromophores within π-stacking distance. Such folded polymer chains eventually produced nanotubular structures with excellent electron mobility. They also showed efficient intercalation of the pyrene (Py) donor by NDI-Py charge-transfer interaction and in this case the mixed nanotubular structure exhibited prominent room-temperature ferroelectricity. On the other hand, having cationic functionalities as the pendant groups such chain-folding regulated assembly produced unilamellar polymersomes with excellent antibacterial activity with very low minimum inhibitory concentrations (<10 μg mL-1). Replacing the pendant amine functionality with sulphate groups made these polyurethanes highly potent antiviral materials. In the absence of the alternating connectivity of the solvophobic and solvophilic segments or rigid hydrocarbon backbone, such folding propensity is destroyed, leading to structural collapse. While significant efforts have been made in correlating primary structures of wide-ranging polymers with their functional applications, this article demonstrates the direct correlation between the secondary structures of polymers and their functional properties.

Abstract
An amphiphilic segmented polyurethane (F-PU-S), with pendant sulfate groups and a flexible hydrocarbon backbone, exhibits intrachain H-bonding-reinforced folding and hierarchical assembly, producing an anionic polymersome with efficient display of sulfate groups at the surface. It shows an excellent antiviral activity against Sendai virus (SV) by inhibiting its entry to the cells. Mechanistic investigation suggests fusion of the SV and the polymersome to produce larger particles in which neither the folded structure of the polymer nor the fusogenic property of the SV exists anymore. In sharp contrast, a structurally similar polymer R-PU-S, in which the chain folding pathway is blocked by replacing the flexible C6 chain with a rigid cyclohexane chain in the backbone, cannot form a similar polymersome structure and hence does not exhibit any antiviral activity. On the other hand, the third polymer (F-PU-C), which is similar to F-PU-S except for the pendant anionic groups (carboxylate instead of sulfate), also fails to exhibit any antiviral activity against SV, confirming the essential role of the chain folding as well as the pendant sulfate groups for the fusion-induced antiviral activity of F-PU-S, which provides an important structural guideline for developing new antiviral polymers.

Abstract
This communication reveals co-assembly of an electron-deficient naphthalene-diimide (NDI)-appended polyurethane (P1) and electron-rich pyrene (Py), forming an organogel with prominent room-temperature ferroelectricity. In a non-polar medium, intra-chain hydrogen-bonding among the urethane groups of P1 produces a folded structure with an array of the NDIs in the periphery, which intercalate Py by charge-transfer (CT)-interaction. Such CT-complexation enables slow crystallization of the peripheral hydrocarbons, causing gelation with nanotubular morphology, in which the wall consists of the alternating NDI-Py stack. Such D-A assembly exhibits ferroelectricity (saturation polarization Ps ≈0.8 μC cm-2 and coercive field Ec ≈8 kV cm-1 at 500 V and 10 Hz frequency) with Curie temperature (Tc ) of ≈350 K, which can be related to the disassembly of the CT-complex. In the absence of Py, P1 forms spherical aggregates, showing dielectric behaviour.

Abstract
This article reveals 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) regulated pathway selectivity in the supramolecular polymerization of a naphthalene-diimide derivative (NDI-1), appended with a carboxylic acid group. In decane, NDI-1 produces ill-defined aggregate (Agg-1) due to different H-bonding motifs of the -COOH group. With one mole equivalent DMAP, the NDI-1/DMAP complex introduces new nucleation condition and exhibits a cooperative supramolecular polymerization producing J-aggregated fibrillar nanostructure (Agg-2). With 10 % DMAP and fast cooling (10 K/min), similar nucleation and open chain H-bonding with the free monomer in an anti-parallel arrangement produces identical J-aggregate (Agg-2a). With 2.5 % DMAP and slow cooling (1 K/min), a distinct nucleation and supramolecular polymerization pathway emerge leading to the thermodynamically controlled Agg-3 with face-to-face stacking and 2D-morphology. Slow cooling with 5-10 % DMAP produces a mixture of Agg-2a and Agg-3. Computational modelling studies provide valuable insights into the internal order and the pathway complexity.

Abstract
The design and synthesis of a tweezer-shaped naphthalenediimide (NDI)-anthracene conjugate (2NDI) are reported. In the structure of the closed form (πNDI ⋅⋅⋅πNDI stack) of 2NDI, which was elucidated by single-crystal XRD, the existence of C-H⋅⋅⋅O hydrogen bonding involving the nearest carbonyl oxygen atom of an NDI unit was suggested. The tunability of πNDI ⋅⋅⋅πNDI interactions was studied by means of UV/Vis absorption, fluorescence and NMR spectroscopy and molecular modelling. This revealed that the πNDI ⋅⋅⋅πNDI interactions in 2NDI affect the absorption and emission properties depending on the temperature. Furthermore, in polar solvents, 2NDI prefers the stronger πNDI ⋅⋅⋅πNDI stack, whereas the πNDI ⋅⋅⋅πNDI interaction is diminished in nonpolar solvents. Importantly, the conformational variations of 2NDI can be reversibly switched by variation in temperature, and this suggests potential application for fluorogenic molecular switches upon temperature changes.

Abstract
The dynamic interactions of membranes, particularly their fusion and fission, are critical for the transmission of chemical information between cells. Fusion is primarily driven by membrane tension built up through membrane deformation. For artificial polymersomes, fusion is commonly induced via the external application of a force field. Herein, fusion-promoted development of anisotropic tubular polymersomes (tubesomes) was achieved in the absence of an external force by exploiting the unique features of aqueous ring-opening metathesis polymerization-induced self-assembly (ROMPISA). The out-of-equilibrium tubesome morphology was found to arise spontaneously during polymerization, and the composition of each tubesome sample (purity and length distribution) could be manipulated simply by targeting different core-block degrees of polymerization (DPs). The evolution of tubesomes was shown to occur via fusion of "monomeric" spherical polymersomes, evidenced most notably by a step-growth-like relationship between the fraction of tubular to spherical nano-objects and the average number of fused particles per tubesome (analogous to monomer conversion and DP, respectively). Fusion was also confirmed by Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) studies to show membrane blending and confocal microscopy imaging to show mixing of the polymersome lumens. We term this unique phenomenon polymerization-induced polymersome fusion, which operates via the buildup of membrane tension exerted by the growing polymer chains. Given the growing body of evidence demonstrating the importance of nanoparticle shape on biological activity, our methodology provides a facile route to reproducibly obtain samples containing mixtures of spherical and tubular polymersomes, or pure samples of tubesomes, of programmed length. Moreover, the capability to mix the interior aqueous compartments of polymersomes during polymerization-induced fusion also presents opportunities for its application in catalysis, small molecule trafficking, and drug delivery.

Abstract
We report here a smart functional low molecular weight gelator (LMWG) L, containing an unusual metal ion coordination site, i.e. "half-crown/two carbonyl". The gelator L shows excellent gelation behavior with typical fibrillar morphology in acetonitrile, methanol and ethanol media. Upon Ca2+ ion binding with its "half-crown/two carbonyl" coordination site, the acetonitrile gel of L exhibits a fiber to nanosphere morphology transformation along with a gel-to-sol phase transition as confirmed by microscopic investigation and by direct naked eye visualization, respectively. The mechanism involved in this morphology transformation and gel-to-sol phase transition process was studied thoroughly with the help of computational calculations and various spectroscopic experiments and discussed.

Abstract
This manuscript reports solvent tunable functional nano-assemblies of an unsymmetrical bola-shaped π-amphiphile (NDI-PY) which consists of a hydrophobic naphthalene-diimide (NDI) chromophore connected to a non-ionic hydrophilic wedge and a pyridine group at its two opposite arms. Importantly, it contains a hydrazide group located at the hydrophobic domain between the NDI-chromophore and the hydrophilic-wedge to drive the supramolecular assembly by directional H-bonding. NDI-PY exhibits spontaneous assembly in water as well as in a highly non-polar solvent like tetra-chloroethylene (TCE) by the synergistic effect of H-bonding and π-stacking interaction. Spectroscopy studies reveal almost identical self-assembly features in water and TCE with critical aggregation concentrations in the range of 0.3 mM, which matches the values obtained from the isothermal calorimetry (ITC) dilution experiment. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) experiments reveal a single endothermic peak at 31 °C (ΔH = -12.3 kJ mol-1) and 40 °C (ΔH = -5.35 kJ mol-1) for water and TCE, respectively, indicating marginally higher thermal stability in TCE, which is consistent with the FT-IR data, suggesting stronger H-bonding in TCE. Although the molecular assembly features appear to be similar, NDI-PY produces distinctly different mesoscopic structures in water and TCE. In water, it forms vesicles (Dh = 150-180 nm) with the pyridine groups displayed at the outer surface, while in TCE it generates a transparent gel (CGC = 8.0 mM) with a nanotubular (width ∼50 nm, wall thickness ∼10 nm) morphology. Powder X-ray diffraction studies show clearly different packing structures; in water a single sharp peak at the low angle (d = 19.3 Å, a little shorter than the extended length of the molecule) suggests the formation of a monolayer membrane, while in TCE several sharp peaks appear with the d values maintaining a ratio of 1 : 1/√3 : 1/2 : 1/√7 : 1/3 : 1/√12, indicating the formation of a 2D hexagonal lattice. Photoconductivity measurements reveal moderate electronic conduction in both cases. However, it shows a remarkable enhancement of the life time of the charge-carriers for the nanotubular structure compared to the vesicular morphology. On the other hand, the vesicles in water display antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive S. aureus with a highly promising MICLB value of 29.4 μg mL-1. In contrast, it does not lyse human red blood cells even at as high a concentration as 2.5 mg mL-1 (HC50 > 2.5 mg mL-1), implying high selectivity of the NDI-PY vesicles towards bacterial cells over mammalian cells. Display of the pyridine groups at the outer surface of the membrane enables molecular recognition by complementary H-bonding with a carboxylic acid group and thereby facilitates uptake of the attached pyrene chromophores in the NDI-membrane by charge-transfer interaction between the NDI acceptor and the pyrene donor. In fact a Job's plot experiment reveals maximum uptake at a 1 : 1 ratio of the NDI-PY and the pyrene guest, indicating all the pyridine groups are accessible at the vesicular surface.

Abstract
Polymersomes, made up of amphiphilic block copolymers, are emerging as a powerful tool in drug delivery and synthetic biology due to their high stability, chemical versatility, and surface modifiability. The full potential of polymersomes, however, has been hindered by a lack of versatile methods for shape control. Here we show that a range of non-spherical polymersome morphologies with anisotropic membranes can be obtained by exploiting hydrophobic directional aromatic interactions between perylene polymer units within the membrane structure. By controlling the extent of solvation/desolvation of the aromatic side chains through changes in solvent quality, we demonstrate facile access to polymersomes that are either ellipsoidal or tubular-shaped. Our results indicate that perylene aromatic interactions have a great potential in the design of non-spherical polymersomes and other structurally complex self-assembled polymer structures.

Abstract
Directional dipole-dipole interaction mediated antiparallel dimerization of merocyanine dye (MD) has been explored for maneuvering supramolecular assembly of MD-conjugated flexible macromolecules leading to a cross-linked nanogel. The MD-functionalized copolymer was synthesized by a newly developed organocatalytic transesterification strategy for postpolymerization functionalization of poly(pentafluorophenyl acrylate) (polyPFPA)-based reactive copolymer. Presence of ∼35% pendant MD attached to a coil-like polymer chain leads to spontaneous formation of highly emitting cross-linked nanogel with efficient container property and appreciable stability in toluene owing to strong dimerization propensity among the MD. Considering the significance of MD in the context of nonlinear optics and photovoltaics, these results not only enrich the toolbox for engineering macromolecular assembly, but also open up new possibilities for future organic materials.

Abstract
Modification of naphthalene diimide (NDI) resulted in a photochemically stable, fluorescent 3,4,5-tris(dodecyloxy)benzamide derivative of NDI (TDBNDI), and introduction of the long alkyl chains endowed the compound with good compatibility with commonly found organic solvents and in particular superior self-assembly in the solution state. Further studies revealed that TDBNDI forms gels with nine of the 18 solvents tested at a concentration of 2.0% (w/v), and the critical gelation concentrations of five of the eight gels are lower than 1.0% (w/v), indicating the high efficiency of the compound as a low-molecular mass gelator (LMMG). Transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and confocal laser scanning microscopy studies revealed the networked fibrillar structure of the TDBNDI/methylcyclohexane (MCH) gel. On the basis of these findings, a fluorescent film was developed via simple spin-coating of the TDBNDI/MCH gel on a glass substrate surface. Fluorescence behavior and sensing performance studies demonstrated that this film is photochemically stable, and sensitive and selective to the presence of aniline vapor. Notably, the response is instantaneous, and the sensing process is fully and quickly reversible. This case study demonstrates that derivatization of photochemically stable fluorophores into LMMGs is a good strategy for developing high-performance fluorescent sensing films.

Abstract
In this review we have collated various supramolecular designs, all surrounding H-bonding among well-known functional groups (peptides, nucleic acids, amides, ureas, carboxylic acids, pyridine-hydroxyls, urethanes, imides and others), to dictate self-assembly of naphthalenediimide (NDI) π-systems (both small molecules and polymeric building blocks) that exhibit several exciting features including strong propensity for π-π interactions, π-acidity, excellent n-type semiconductivity, CT-complexation, ion-π interactions, ring-substitution dependent redox properties and photophysical properties. This article reveals that H-bonding can indeed serve as a very powerful and versatile tool to programmed self-assembly of a single or multiple dye system producing a wide range of tailored soft materials, including fibrillar gels, chromonic mesophases, foldamers, nanotubes, vesicles, reverse micelles and polymersomes, both in water and organic medium with distinct photophysical properties, charge transport properties, conductivity properties and functional group displays that are highly relevant in the fields of biology and organic electronics.

Abstract
We present a bioinspired design strategy to effectively tailor the assembly of naphthalenediimides (NDIs) into a wide variety of architectures by functionalizing with amino acid derivatives. This bioinspired process of custom designing and engineering molecular assemblies is termed "bioinspired architectonics". By employing minute structural mutations in the form of α-substituents of amino acids, we successfully engineered molecular assembly of NDIs into zero-dimensional (0D, spheres), one-dimensional (1D, fibers), and two-dimensional (2D, sheets) architectures. The 2D sheets of phenylalanine methylester appended NDI 1 showed remarkable bulk electron mobility of up to 1 cm(2) V(-1)s(-1). With the aid of photophysical, diffraction, and microscopy techniques we rationalize the effect of molecular structure with their ordering and electronic properties in an effort to find structure-property correlations via a bioinspired modular approach.

Cooperative supramolecular polymerization of an amine-substituted naphthalene-diimide and its impact on excited state photophysical properties. Chem Sci 2016; 7:1115-1120. [PMID: 29910867 PMCID: PMC5975828 DOI: 10.1039/c5sc03462k] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2015] [Accepted: 10/29/2015] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
A donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) type naphthalene-diimide (NDI-H) chromophore exhibits highly cooperative J-aggregation leading to nanotubular self-assembly and gelation in n-decane, as demonstrated by UV/Vis, FT-IR, photoluminescence and microscopy studies. Analysis of temperature-dependent UV/Vis spectra using the nucleation-elongation model and FT-IR data reveals the molecular origin of the cooperative nature of the self-assembly. The supramolecular polymerization is initiated by H-bonding up to a degree of polymerization ∼20-25, which in a subsequent elongation step promotes J-aggregation in orthogonal direction leading to possibly a sheet-like structure that eventually produces nanotubes. Time-resolved fluorescence and absorption measurements demonstrate that such a tubular assembly enables very effective delocalization of excited states resulting in a remarkably prolonged excited state lifetime.
