Dual responsive supramolecular amphiphiles: guest molecules dictate the architecture of pyridinium-tailored anthracene assemblies†
Abstract
By introducing an electron-deficient guest molecule and a counter anion, the assembly morphology of 1-[11-(2-anthracenylmethoxy)-11-oxoundecyl]pyridinium bromide (2-AP) was transformed to microsheets and nanofibers from microtubes, respectively.
