Homodimerization driven self-assembly of glycoluril molecular clips with covalently immobilized poly(ε-caprolactone)

Abstract

We present an unexpected self-assembly of a glycoluril clip–poly(ε-caprolactone) conjugate in chloroform. The conjugate forms homodimer aggregates due to supramolecular interactions between glycoluril moieties, which was confirmed with MALDI-TOF-ms and 1H NMR. TEM revealed the formation of multilayered nanosized prism-shaped objects resembling tree bark in nature.
