Abstract

The synthesis and supramolecular organization of a phthalocyanine 3 functionalized with a melamine moiety is described. 3 self-assembles in solution to form dimeric species–driven by double hydrogen-bonding between the aromatic amine functionality that is directly attached to the phthalocyanine ring and the melamine pyridinic nitrogens. In the presence of perylenediimide 2, endowed with a complementary tritopic functionality, electron donor– ...
