Self-organization processes of a gear-shaped amphiphile molecule (1) to form a hexameric structure (nanocube, 16) were inferred from sequential dissociation processes by using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Our MD study unveiled that programed dynamic ordering exists in the dissociation processes of 16. According to the dissociation processes, it is proposed that triple π-stacking among three 3-pyridyl groups and other weak molecular interactions such as CH–π and van der Waals interactions, some of which arise from the solvophobic effect, were sequentially formed in stable and transient oligomeric states in the self-organization processes, i.e.12, 13, 14, and 15. By subsequent analyses on structural stabilities, it was found that 13 and 14 are stable intermediate oligomers, whereas 12 and 15 are transient ones. Thus, the formation of 13 from three monomers and of 16 from 14 and two monomers via corresponding transients is time consuming in the self-assembly process.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
