Heterosupramolecular chemistry

Abstract

The covalent and non-covalent assembly of nanocrystals and molecules in solution to yield heterosupermolecules possessing well defined heterosupramolecular functions is described. Also described is the organisation of heterosupermolecules into assemblies possessing addressable heterosupramolecular function. Strategies are considered that will permit the covalent and non-covalent assembly and organisation of a wide range of condensed phase and molecular components. Also considered are the possible longer term benefits of the development of a systematic chemistry of both condensed phase and molecular components, that is, a systematic heterosupramolecular chemistry.
