TerpyridineCuII-mediated reversible nanocomposites of single-wall carbon nanotubes: towards metallo-nanoscale architectures.
The self-assembly of Oxi-SWNTs, based on terpyridineCu(II) coordination, produces a thermally stable, neutral [(Oxi-SWNT)(tpyCu(II))m]n nanocomposite possessing notable luminscence properties; quantitative disassembly occurred by treatment with aqueous KCN.
