Self-assembly of emissive supramolecular rosettes with increasing complexity using multitopic terpyridine ligands

Metal coordination of multitopic ligands is a powerful approach to building complex, functional architectures. Here, the authors construct three generations of fluorescent supramolecular rosettes by coordination of aggregation-induced emissive ligands, including a 2nd-generation macrocycle that emit...
