H-type supramolecular polymers with preferred helicity and highly efficient emission have been prepared from the self-assembly of chiral tetraphenylene-based monomers. Implementation of the one-dimensional fibers into dielectric nanoparticle arrays allows for a significant reshaping of fluorescence due to weak light-matter coupling.

Herein, we report the synthesis of the naphthalendiimides (NDIs) 1-3 endowed with peripheral 3,4,5-trialkoxybenzamide units and a variable number of 1,2,3-triazole rings. Both the benzamide units and the triazole rings are able to form six- or seven-membered intramolecularly H-bonded pseudocycles that behave as metastable monomeric units. Whilst freshly prepared solutions of 1-3 afford H-type aggregates, the presence or lack of the 1,2,3-triazole rings strongly conditions the kinetics and stability of the resulting aggregated species.

We designed a new cyanine dye 1, with two pedant rod-like groups, capable of forming two distinct two-dimensional (2D) supramolecular polymorphs in methylcyclohexane; an H-type aggregate (Agg-H) and a J-type aggregate (Agg-J). Importantly, these two polymorphs were not accessed through polymerization events, and instead through the thermal transformation of a third particle-like polymorph (Agg-H) formed by the anti-cooperative assembly of 1. While Agg-H is generated upon cooling the solution of Agg-H by a thermoreversible polymorph transition, the Agg-J was obtained through a hidden pathway by combining sonication and cooling to the Agg-H solution.

The synthesis of a series of -annulated perylenediimides (NPDIs) 1-4 with an ester group and an alkyl spacer of different length in the peripheral chains was carried out, and the influence of the side chain architecture on the self-assembly, both in solution and in the solid state, was investigated. Solution studies evidenced that the carbonyl group plays a key role in the supramolecular organization of these derivatives, changing from an H-type isodesmic polymerization (4) to a J-type cooperative process as the spacer length decreases (1-3). On the other hand, bulk assays revealed an odd-even effect that correlates with the length of the alkyl spacer.

In this work, a core-substituted NMI-conjugated dipeptide (4MNLV) was extensively studied in mixed solvent systems to explore the polarity effect on the self-assembly pattern and their photophysical property. 4MNLV adopted J- or H- type aggregation pattern depending upon the polarity index of the solvent system chosen. The self-assembly process was achieved through the anti-solvent effect.

The synthesis of 3,4,9,10-benzo[,]isoquinolino[1,8-,]quinoline-tetracarboxylic diimide (BQQDI) 1 endowed with peripheral trialkoxybenzamide fragments is reported and its self-assembling features investigated. The peripheral benzamide moieties generate metastable monomeric species that afford a kinetically controlled supramolecular polymerization. The electron-withdrawing character of 1 in comparison with previously reported PDIs 2, together with the similar geometry, makes this dye an optimal candidate to perform seeded supramolecular copolymerization yielding four different supramolecular block copolymers.
