Impact of Linear Alkyl Length on Assembly of Twisted Perylene Bisimides: From Molecular Arrangement to Nanostructures

Impact of Linear Alkyl Length on Assembly of Twisted Perylene Bisimides: From Molecular Arrangement to Nanostructures
Yuanping Yi, Kun Wang, Zhibo Li, Zongxia Guo, Xiangnan Wang, Shusha Lan, Ping Yu, Kai Sun
The linear alkyl chain length effect on the assembly of non-planar perylene bisimides (PBIs, 1 with -C6H13; 2 with -C12H25) has been investigated. It was suggested that π–π stacking predominated in assemblies of 1 with short alkyl chains, while both π–π stacking and van der Waals interactions contributed to the hierarchical assembly of 2 with longer alkyl chains. Thus, by changing the linear chain length, the hierarchical assembly of PBIs modified on bay positions could be manipulated effectively. More information can be found in the Full Paper by Zongxia Guo, Zhibo Li et al.
