Engineering Stacks of Aromatic Rings by the Interpenetration of Self-Assembled Coordination Cages.

The article examines the engineering stacks of aromatic rings by the interpenetration of self-assembled coordination cages. Aromatic towers consisting of seven to nine discretely stacked motifs with large aromatic molecules via the precisely controlled noncovalent interactions was constructed. Aromatic molecules exhibit unique electroconductive and photophysical properties when staked in layers.
