Supramolecular pathway selection of perylenediimides mediated by chemical fuels

Abstract

We demonstrate supramolecular pathway selection of a perylenediimide derivative in aqueous solution using chemically fueled redox reactions to control assembly/disassembly cycles. The number and frequency of cycles affect the nucleation and growth process, providing control over the size and internal order of the resulting self-assembled structures.
