Abstract
Retraction of ‘A phosphonic acid appended naphthalene diimide motif for self-assembly into tunable nanostructures through molecular recognition with arginine in water’ by Kamalakar P. Nandre et al., Chem. Commun., 2013, 49, 5444–5446, https://doi.org/10.1039/C3CC41259H.
The Royal Society of Chemistry hereby wholly retracts this ChemComm article following an institutional investigation carried out by RMIT University.
Both Fig. 4 and Fig. S9 contain duplicated features.
The investigation found that this paper “breached the Australian Code and RMIT Research Policy by not ensuring that conclusions are justified by the results and not responsibly disseminating research findings”. A recommendation was given that this paper is retracted.
The authors were informed about the retraction of the article. Kamalakar P. Nandre, Sheshanath V. Bhosale, Sidhanath V. Bhosale, and Akhil Gupta have not agreed with the decision, K. V. S. Rama Krishna has not responded.
