| The field of supramolecular polymer research is a rapidly developing area of chemistry. We propose that a supramolecular network should be able to self-heal in case of fracture by virtue of the reversibility of the non-covalent crosslinks. In this study, oligonaphthalene di-imides and pyrene terminated oligoamides have been synthesised and blended to introduce a supramolecular non-covalent interaction between the g-electron rich donor and the g-electron deficient acceptor. Model compound derivatives have been also synthesised and the complexes studied via 1H NMR titration and UV-Visible spectroscopy. |
