title: Cooperative Self-Assembly of Carbazole Derivatives Driven by Multiple Dipole-Dipole Interactions.
abstract: Carbazole possessing phenylisoxazoles self-assembled in a cooperative manner in decalin. X-ray crystal structure analysis revealed that the isoxazole dipoles align in a head-to-tail fashion. DFT calculations suggested that the linear array of dipoles induced the polarization of each dipole, leading to an increase in dipole-dipole interactions. This dipole polarization resulted in cooperative assembly.
