An amphiphilic metallaclip with enhanced fluorescence emission in water: synthesis and controllable self-assembly into multi-dimensional micro-structures†
Abstract
A new amphiphilic organoplatinum(II) metallaclip was designed and fabricated successfully through coordination driven self-assembly. It can further self-assemble into multi-dimensional well-defined micro-structures with different CH3OH/H2O ratios, and show enhanced fluorescence emission in water.
