Abstract
- [Display omitted] Supramolecular self-assembly of low molecular weight molecules into various organic nanostructures has attracted considerable research interest. However, preparing organic nanostructures through a top-down method, such as the disassembly of one large structure into many smaller nanoscale nanostructures, still remains a big challenge. Here, we make use of anti-solvent method to regulate the hierarchical self-assembly of an achiral C 3 -symmetric molecule in THF/water to prepare various nanostructures, including spherical structures, nanofibers, nanoribbons and nanotwists. Interestingly, the spherical structures could disassemble into nanohelices through good solvent dilution, providing a nanoscale top-down method to prepare organic nanostructures.
