Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perspectives in Supramolecular Chemistry relates recent developments and new exciting approaches in supramolecular chemistry. The series covers all areas from theoretical and modelling aspects through organic and inorganic chemistry and biochemistry to materials, solid-state and polymer sciences reflecting the many and varied applications of supramolecular structures in modern chemistry. From the early days of supramolecular chemistry the field has been associated with possible applications. This is not surprising as the design of new molecules, and later of assemblies of molecules, is often function-driven. Now, after three decades of supramolecular chemistry, David Reinhoudt has brought together a collection of reviews to reflect on the applications that have actually been achieved. The first applications in molecular recognition are now established technologies in analytical chemistry, separation science and medicine. More recently, developments have taken place in material design and these concepts are also discussed here. Contents * Self-Assembling Systems on Scales from Nanometers to Millimeters: Design and Discovery * Dendritic Architectures * Supramolecular Structures with Macromolecules * Chemosensors: Synthetic Receptors in Analytical Sensing Applications * Selective Ion Recognition with Durable Sensors * Ion Separations in Membrane and Solid Phase Extraction Systems * Porphyrin- and Expanded Pophyrin-Based Diagnostic and Therapeutic Agents Supramolecular Materials and Technologies illustrates the achievements and advances that supramolecular chemistry has made in many fields from organic chemistry to materials science and from analytical chemistry to molecular biology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supra-materials Nanoarchitectonics provides the latest information on design at the nanoscale, presenting a range of the new challenges that arise as the manipulation techniques that work at the macro- and micro-scale do not work at the nanoscale. The term nanoarchitectonics, coined by Japan's National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), describes the organized interactions required at the nanoscale, replacing the traditional structure-building approach used in materials design. Nanoarchitectonics approaches material design via a profound understanding of the interactions between individual nanostructures and their organization. As the nanoarchitectonics paradigm fits well with the discipline of supramolecular chemistry, this book brings together these two approaches to demonstrate the potential of supramolecular nanoarchitectonics in the development of new materials, both at the nano- and macro-scale. - Written by the team that coined the term nanoarchitectonics, providing a detailed explanation of the approach and techniques of supramolecular nanoarchitectonics - Demystifies materials design via organized interactions at the nanoscale - Explains this new paradigm via practical scientific techniques

Download or read book Supramolecular Materials Self Organized Nanostructures written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have discovered systems of molecules with the architecture of miniaturized triblock copolymers that self assemble into nanostructures highly regular in size and shape. In the system described here, a mushroom-shaped supramolecular structure of about 200 kilodaltons forms by crystallization of the chemically identical blocks in the system. Interestingly, the supramolecular units self organize into films containing one hundred or more layers stacked in polar arrangement. The polar supramolecular material exhibits spontaneous second harmonic generation from infrared to green photons, and a tape-like character with nonadhesive-hydrophobic and hydrophilic- sticky opposite surfaces. The films also have reasonable shear strength, and adhere tenaciously to glass surfaces on one side only. The regular and finite size of the supramolecular units is believed to be mediated by repulsive forces among some of the segments in the triblock molecules. On the other hand, the polar stacking of the mushroom nanostructures might be the system's organization that optimizes space filling in three dimensions. A large diversity of multifunctional materials could be discovered in solids formed by regular supramolecular units in the range of hundreds of kilodaltons. Such supramolecular materials could impact the technologies of sensors, cell substrates, waveguides, membranes, materials coupling in composite structures, solid lubricants, and catalysts, among others.
