Analysis of temperature-dependent UV/Vis spectra using the nucleation-elongation model and FT-IR data reveals the molecular origin of the cooperative nature of the self-assembly. The supramolecular polymerization is initiated by H-bonding up to a degree of polymerization similar to 20-25, which in a subsequent elongation step promotes J-aggregation in orthogonal direction leading to possibly a sheet-like structure that eventually produces nanotubes. Time-resolved fluorescence and absorption measurements demonstrate that such a tubular assembly enables very effective delocalization of excited states resulting in a remarkably prolonged excited state lifetime.}, language = {en} } @article{BaeumerKarthaAllampallyetal.2019, author = {B{\"a}umer, Nils and Kartha, Kalathil K. and Allampally, Naveen Kumar and Yagai, Shiki and Albuquerque, Rodrigo Q. and Fern{\´a}ndez, Gustavo}, title = {Kontrolle {\"u}ber Selbstassemblierung durch Ausnutzung von Koordinationsisomerie}, series = {Angewandte Chemie}, volume = {131}, journal = {Angewandte Chemie}, number = {44}, doi = {10.1002/ange.201908002}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-212176}, pages = {15772 -- 15776}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Hierin wird die inh{\"a}rente geometrische Isomerie eines PtII Komplexes als neues Werkzeug zur Kontrolle von supramolekularen Assemblierungsprozessen ausgenutzt.
