Enhanced Small-Molecule Assembly through Directional Intramolecular Forces

Directional intramolecular interactions play a critical role in the self-assembly of donor-σ-acceptor molecules in solution. Amide functions on the periphery of the tricyclic core stabilize a C 3-symmetric monomer conformation by intramolecular hydrogen bonding and dipole−dipole interactions. The mo...

Summary:Directional intramolecular interactions play a critical role in the self-assembly of donor-σ-acceptor molecules in solution. Amide functions on the periphery of the tricyclic core stabilize a C 3-symmetric monomer conformation by intramolecular hydrogen bonding and dipole−dipole interactions. The molecules are effective organogelators and show long-range ordering in the bulk.
