Directional Supramolecular Polymerization in a Dynamic Microsolution: A Linearly Moving Polymer’s End Striking Monomers

|

| ACS Publications
Although directional chain reactions are common in nature’s self-assembly processes and in covalent polymerizations, it has been challenging to perform such processes in artificial one-dimensional self-assembling systems. In this paper, we describe a system, employing perylene bisimide (PBI) derivatives as monomers, for selectively activating one end of a supramolecular polymer during its growth and, thereby, realizing directional supramolecular polymerization.
