A supramolecular ladder polymer prepared by hydrogen bonding-mediated self-assembly of a metallomacrocycle

Abstract

A defect-free supramolecular ladder polymer was prepared by H-bond-mediated self-assembly of a metallocycle 1 as determined by NMR, viscometry and dynamic laser light scattering studies. This ladder polymer further self-assembled into thicker bundles which subsequently folded into uniform-sized spheres in the solid state.
