Unconventional hydrogen-bond-directed hierarchical co-assembly between perylene bisimide and azobenzene-functionalized melamine.
Co-assembly of ditopic perylene bisimide and azobenzene-functionalized melamine occurs with an unconventional stoichiometric ratio, providing well-defined nanostructures with a helically-coiled architecture where perylene chromophores are packed in desirable J-type arrangements.
