Abstract
One-dimensional (1D) solid-state supramolecular structures based on porphyrin chromophores arouse numerous expectations from the interdisciplinary scientific communities of supramolecular chemistry and advanced soft materials science. This stems from the intrinsic assembly capability of porphyrins to form various well-defined 1D assemblies, which have broad opportunities in the fields of advanced soft matter. A brief review on 1D porphyrin micro-/nanoassemblies constructed via surfactant-assisted self-assembly is presented here, in terms of addressing new ideas recently developed for controlled assembly, hierarchical organization, and new-type functional surfactants etc. The functionalization of the as-assembled 1D structures with regard to supramolecular photocatalysis, non-linear optics, nanoelectronic gas sensors, photoelectrochemical solar cells, etc. is highlighted.
