Abstract

Using concentrated nitric acid as the solvent, and water as the non-solvent, one-dimensional (1D) organic nanowires can be synthesized in a simple, one-pot process with high yield. The method has broad validity to a wide range of aromatic molecules for the synthesis of derivatized organic wires.
