The Design of Dissipative Molecular Assemblies Driven by Chemical Reaction Cycles

Open access
Rieß, Benedikt, Grötsch, Raphael Kurt, Boekhoven, Job·2020·Chem

Abstract

Summary The field of supramolecular chemistry and molecular self-assembly has entered a new phase in which the use of chemical reactions to create out-of-equilibrium molecular assemblies is becoming more common. These dynamic assemblies have vastly different properties than their in-equilibrium counterparts, which include the ability to be controlled over space and time or the ability to self-replicate. Such behaviors would set significant steps toward the synthesis of artificial life. However, a limiting factor toward the revolution of the field is the lack of clear definitions and design rules for such systems. In this review, we explain the core principles that help to design energy-dissipating chemical reaction cycles that can drive molecular assemblies. We discuss strategies for coupling these reaction cycles to building blocks for the materials. We conclude with an outlook for the field of dissipative self-assembly and its potential role as a material or model for life.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
