RT Journal Article T1 Simultaneous Adjustment of Size and Helical Sense of Chiral Nanospheres and Nanotubes Derived from Axially Racemic Poly(phenyl acetylene)s A1 Arias, Sandra A1 Núñez Martínez, Manuel A1 Quiñoá Cabana, Emilio A1 Riguera Vega, Ricardo A1 Freire Iribarne, Félix Manuel K1 Nanospheres K1 Nanotubes K1 Helices K1 Poly(phenylacetylene)s K1 Helical sense AB Nanospheres and nanotubes with full control of their size and helical sense are obtained in chloroform from the axially racemic chiral poly(phenylacetylene) poly-(R)-1 using either Ag+ as both chiral inducer and cross-linking agent or Na+ as chiral inducer and Ag+ as cross-linking agent. The size is tuned by the polymer/ion ratio while the helical sense is modulated by the polymer/cosolvent (i.e., MeCN) ratio. In this way, the helicity and the size of the nanoparticles can be easily interconverted by very simple experimental changes PB Wiley YR 2016 FD 2016-10-19 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/16405 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/16405 LA eng NO S.
