Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Structure determination, design/synthesis of molecules, and space temporal control of molecular events represent the modern paradigm of organic chemistry. This project has focused on the hierarchal control of the solution and solid-state chemistry including time evolution of the structures of molecules and molecular assemblies. In doing so, we focused on the diverse functional activities of carbon cluster compounds possessing pi-conjugated systems, deepened our understanding of space temporal control, and developed biomedical and industrial applications. We have synthesized conical fullerene amphiphiles, and applied them for solubilization of nanoparticles, and for delivery of siRNA to kidney through a blood stream. We discovered that dissolution of tetrabenzoporphyrin in an organic acid results in precipitation of entangle fibers, a molecular wire showing a ON/OFF switching ratio of 2700.
