We have synthesized a novel amphiphilic naphthalene imide bearing a cationic dendrimer wedge (NID). NID molecules in water self-assemble to form a two-dimensional ribbon, which further coils to give a linear supramolecular nanofiber. The sample solution showed linear dichroism (LD) upon stirring of the solution, where NID nanofibers dominantly align at the center of vortex by hydrodynamic interaction with the downward torsional flows.
我们合成了一种新型两亲性萘酰亚胺,其带有阳离子树状大分子楔(NID)。NID 分子在水中自组装形成二维带状结构,进一步卷曲形成线性超分子纳米纤维。当搅拌溶液时,样品溶液显示出线性二色性(LD),其中 NID 纳米纤维通过与向下扭转流的水动力相互作用,主要在涡旋中心排列。
