Abstract
Although metal-containing polymers have been widely studied as a novel class of functional soft materials, the microphase separation between polymeric segments and metal-ligand complexes has been less addressed, which is critical to control their structures and functions. To do this, short-chain polystyrenes (PSs) have been end-functionalized with nanosized square-planar platinum(II) complexes. The platinum(II)-comprising polymers were found to show significant luminescence enhancement in chloroform/methanol solvent mixtures upon increasing the methanol composition. By modulating both the PS length and solvent quality, various self-assembled morphologies formed controllably in the mixed solvents and typical examples include nanofibers, nanoellipsoids, and nanospheres. More interestingly, the inside structures of these polymer particles are shown to be lamellar with sub-10 nm spacings, wherein the PS blocks are alternatively aligned with the platinum(II) units. Such a luminescence enhancement and hierarchical nanostructured particles originate from a subtle combination of directional Pt(II)⋯Pt(II) and/or π-π stacking interactions between the platinum(II) units and the solvophobic effect between the PS blocks. This work suggests that by microphase separating polymer chains with nanosized metal-ligand complexes, metal-containing polymers can self-assemble to form sub-10 nm scale nanostructures showcasing desired properties and functions.

Abstract
Alkyne-functionalized fullerenes (fullerynes) were designed and conveniently synthesized via Bingel reaction in one step with high yields. They were used to react with azido-functionalized polystyrene (PS) via Huisgen [3 + 2] cycloaddition 'click' chemistry to form two fullerene polymers: one with C60 tethered to the end of a PS chain (C60-1PS) and the other with C60 tethered at the junction point of two PS chains of identical molecular weight (C60-2PS). The fullerene polymers were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and SEC. The results showed that the fullerene polymers are well-defined with narrow polydispersity and high fullerene functionality. Besides, aggregation of C60 in THF was observed in the SEC traces. The optical properties of the fullerene polymers were studied by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, and the results suggested that the PS chain(s) on the fullerene core has no remarkable effect on the optic property of C60. The thermal properties of the fullerene polymers were studied by TGA and DSC, and the results indicated that the two fullerene polymers with different C60 content and distinct molecular topology may have different self-assemble architectures in the solid state. The well-defined fullerene polymers can be used as model compounds to study the self-assemble architecture of shape amphiphiles based on polymer-tethered molecular nanoparticles.

Abstract
A series of giant polymer-dendron conjugates with a dendron head and a linear polymer tail were synthesized via"click" chemistry between azide-functionalized polystyrene (PS(N), N: degree-of-polymerization) and t-butyl protected, alkyne-functionalized second generation dendron (tD), followed by a deprotection process to generate a dendron termini possessing nine carboxylic acid groups. The molecular structures were confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance, size-exclusion chromatographic analyses, and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectra. These well-defined conjugates can serve as a model system to study the effects of the molecular geometries on the self-assembly behaviour, as compared with their linear analogues. Four phase morphologies found in flexible linear diblock copolymer systems, including lamellae, bicontinuous double gyroids, hexagonal packed cylinders, and body-centred cubic packed spheres, were observed in this series of conjugates based on the results of small angle X-ray scattering and transmission electron microscopy. All of the domain sizes in these phase separated structures were around or less than 10 nm. A 'half' phase diagram was constructed based on the experimental results. The geometrical effect was found not only to enhance the immiscibility between the PS(N) tail and dendron head, but also systematically shift all of the phase boundaries towards higher volume fractions of the PS(N) tails, resulting in an asymmetrical phase diagram. This study may provide a pathway to the construction of ordered patterns of sub-10 nm feature size using polymer-dendron conjugates.

Abstract
Motivated by growing interest in the self-assembly of nanoparticles for applications such as photonics, organic photovoltaics, and DNA-assisted designer crystals, we explore the phase behavior of tethered spherical nanoparticles. Here, a polymer tether is used to geometrically constrain a pair of nanoparticles creating a tethered nanoparticle "telechelic". Using simulation, we examine how varying architectural features, such as the size ratio of the two end-group nanospheres and the length of the flexible tether, affects the self-assembled morphologies. We demonstrate not only that this hybrid building block maintains the same phase diversity as linear triblock copolymers, allowing for a variety of nanoparticle materials to replace polymer blocks, but also that new structures not previously reported are accessible. Our findings imply a robust underlying ordering mechanism is common among these systems, thus allowing flexibility in synthesis approaches to achieve a target morphology.

Abstract
Rapid and precise synthesis of macromolecules has been a grand challenge in polymer chemistry. In this letter, we describe a convenient, rapid, and robust strategy for a one-pot synthesis of various precisely defined giant surfactants based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS). The method combines orthogonal oxime ligation, strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC), and thiol-ene "click" coupling. The process is usually completed within 0.5-2 h and does not require chromatography methods for purification. With near quantitative conversion efficiency, the method yields giant surfactants with distinct topologies, including single-tailed and asymmetric, multitailed giant surfactants. Both polymer tail composition and POSS surface chemistry are controlled precisely and tuned independently, enabling the design and preparation of new classes of giant surfactants.

Abstract
This letter reports a sequential triple "click" chemistry method for the precise synthesis of functional polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS)-based multiheaded and multitailed giant surfactants. A vinyl POSS-based heterobifunctional building block possessing two alkyne groups of distinct reactivity was used as a robust and powerful "clickable" precursor for ready access to a variety of POSS-based shape amphiphiles with complex architectures. The synthetic approach involves sequentially performed strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC), copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC), and thiol-ene "click" coupling (TECC). Specifically, the first SPAAC reaction was found to be highly selective with no complications from the vinyl groups and terminal alkynes in the precursor. The method expands the toolbox of sequential "click" approaches and broadens the scope of synthetically available giant surfactants for further study on structure-property relationships.

Abstract
A series of shape amphiphiles based on functionalized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) head tethered with two polymeric tails of symmetric or asymmetric compositions was designed and synthesized using sequential "grafting-from" and "click" surface functionalization. The monofunctionalization of octavinylPOSS was performed using thiol-ene chemistry to afford a dihydroxyl-functionalized POSS that was further derived into precisely defined homo- and heterobifunctional macroinitiators. Polymer tails, such as polycaprolactone and polystyrene, could then be grown from these POSS-based macroinitiators with controlled molecular weight via ring-opening polymerization and atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). The vinyl groups on POSS were found to be compatible with ATRP conditions. These macromolecular precursors were further modified by thiol-ene chemistry to install surface functionalities onto the POSS cage. The polymer chain composition and POSS surface chemistry can thus be tuned separately in a modular and efficient way.
