Spontaneous Hierarchical Assembly of Crown Ether‐like Macrocycles into Nanofibers and Microfibers Induced by Alkali‐Metal and Ammonium Salts
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Schiff base macrocycle 1, which has a crown ether like central pore, was combined with different alkali-metal and ammonium salts in chloroform, resulting in one-dimensional supramolecular aggregates. The ion-induced self-assembly was studied with solid-state NMR spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). It was found that the lengths and widths of the superstructures depend on the cation and counteranion of the salts. Among the salts being used, Na(+) and NH(4) (+) ions with BF(4) (-) ions showed the most impressive fibrous structures that can grow up to 1 mum in diameter and hundreds of microns in length. In addition, the size of the fibers can be controlled by the evaporation rate of the solvent. A new macrocycle with bulky triptycenyl substituents that prevent supramolecular assembly was prepared and did not display any nanofibers with alkali-metal ions in chloroform when studied with TEM.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
