Chiral oligo(methylene-p-phenyleneethynylene)s can form vesicular assemblies no matter whether side chains and solvents are hydrophilic or hydrophobic. The self-assembly processes are highly independent of molecular design and chemical environments.

ABSTRACTA series of substituted phenylene ethynylene diazonium salts were prepared from the corresponding anilines by the action of nitrosonium tetrafluoroborate in sulfolane-acetonitrile solvent. Formation of self-assembled layers of the diazonium salts in acetonitrile solution was demonstrated on Au, Cu and Pt surfaces. The self-assembly rate of the diazonium salts was found to be markedly dependent on the electron withdrawing character of the substituents attached to the aromatic rings.

We describe the synthesis of two propeller-shaped, emissive trisbiphenylamines 1 and (S)-2. Whilst achiral 1 forms supramolecular polymers following a cooperative mechanism, the self-assembly of chiral (S)-2 can be described by an isodesmic mechanism. Despite the isodesmic character of the supramolecular polymerization of (S)-2, an efficient transfer of chirality from the embedded point chirality of the peripheral side chains to the aggregates is demonstrated. The co-assembly of 1 and (S)-2 in a sergeants-and-soldiers experiment shows a very different dichroic response to that registered for pristine (S)-2, with a copolymerization curve displaying two transitions. Both these transitions coincide with those observed for the pristine achiral and chiral components, thus suggesting a self-sorting effect.

For understanding the self-assembly behaviours of norbornene-based main-chain polymers depending on side-chain pendants, a series of polynorbornenes containing the programmed dendrons is newly designed and successfully synthesized via ring opening metathesis polymerization.
