Self-Assembled Conjugated Thiophene-Based Rotaxane Architectures: Structural, Computational, and Spectroscopic Insights into Molecular Aggregation

Abstract:

A comparative study of the self-assembly at a variety of surfaces of a dithiophene rotaxane 1⊂β-CD and its corresponding dumbbell, 1, by means of atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) imaging on the micrometer and nanometer scale, respectively. The dumbbell is found to have a greater propensity to form ordered supramolecular assemblies, as a result of π-π interactions between dithiophenes belonging to adjacent molecules, which are hindered in the rotaxa...
