文摘

We report the first detailed study on the self-assembly of diblock copolymers containing theluminescent metal complex Ru(bpy)₃²⁺, which were constructed by ring-opening metathesis polymerization. Controlover the block length, overall polymer length, polymer concentration, and solution conditions has led to thereproducible formation of a number of solution morphologies including vesicles, tubules, large compound micelles,star micelles, and bowls, which all contain Ru(bpy)₃²⁺ within the micellar core/vesicle wall. These morphologieshold interesting potential for the facile organization of architectures useful in catalysis and light harvesting.
