Supramolecular hybrid functional nanoparticles (NPs) can be obtained via the colloidal tectonics approach provided that multiple interactive molecular tectons are used. Herein, the programmable synthesis of novel hybrid core–shell nanoparticles via the following sequential steps is reported: (i) complexation of 1‐decanol by the β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD), (ii) spontaneous self‐assembly into CD NPs, (iii) adsorption of polyoxometalate anions, PW12O403−, on the polar neutral interface of the CD NPs. Such an approach paves the way for the design of novel and original materials and systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
