RESUMO
A novel and facile approach to manipulate the morphology of Cu(2+)-ion-specific assembly of conjugated polymer by coordinative interaction at an oil-water two-phase interface is present. The application of increasing importance is the use of π-conjugated polymers as receptors, exploiting their ability to selectively form complexes, which can obviously change the optical properties in solution and induce the formation of varied solid nano/microstructures. By this method, microtubes are formed through self-rolling of a strained ionic bilayer film at the oil/water interface.

Novel organic-inorganic nanonetworks of oligo(phenylenevinylene) (OPV) and gold nanoparticles (GNPs) have been synthesized by the amine-based epoxide ring-opening reaction. The resulting OPV-GNPs nanocomposites exhibit homogeneous and well-defined interfaces between the organic ligands and the inorganic nanoparticles, thereby promoting efficient electronic interfacial interaction between the two constituents. The functionalized gold nanoparticles serve as chemical reagents for the construction of nanohybrids, while the epoxide-terminated OPV acts as linkage between gold nanoparticles. The new architecture provides a facile methodology for fabrication of novel organic-inorganic nanohybrids under relatively mild conditions, which facilitates further applications of hybrid materials.
