Self-assembled Nanoreactors and Relevant Applications Reporter : Xinli Tong Supervisor : Jie Xu (Prof.) Contents 1. Research Background Well-known Research Groups 2. Different Self-assembled Nanoreactors Molecular Nanoreactors Macromolecular Nanoreactors Biomacromolecular Nanoreactors 2.1 Molecular Nanoreactors Molecular Encapsulation (Self-assembly through hydrogen-bonding) Amphiphile Molecular-based Self-assembled Reactor (Micellar Systems and Vesicular Systems) 2.1.1 Molecular Self-assembly on hydrogen-bonding Amphiphile Molecular-based Self-assembly The aggregation of Amphiphile phospholipid as a simple model. (elicitation from cells) Micellar Reactor and Vesicular Reactor Formation of Vesicular Nanoreactor 2.2 Macromolecular Nanoreactors Mainly focusing on polymers as building blocks for reactors Good stability and rigidity of their membrane system 2.2.1 Polymersomes as Nanoreactors 2.2.2 Embedding metals into Polymer Nanoreactors 3.3 Biomacromolecular Nanoreactors Viruses as Self-assembled Nanomaterials 3. Relevant Applications Catalysis by hydrogen-bonding-based Reactor Micellar Catalysis Vesicular Catalysis Catalysis by Macromolecular Nanoreactors Catalysis by Biomacromolecular Nanoreactors 3.3 Vesicular Catalysis A vesicle surface is more organized than the surface of a micelle and potentially can influence the reaction pathway of conversions better than a micelle surface can do. 3.4 Catalysis by Macromolecular Nanoreactors Coupling Reaction by Polymer-based Nanoreactors Self-Assembled Nanoreactors as Highly ActiveCatalysts in the HKR of Epoxides in Water 3.5 Catalysis by Biomacromolecular Nanoreactors 4. Conclusion and Outlook Different novel approaches toward nanoreactors have been achieved. Self-assembled nanoreactors contains Molecular Nanoreactors, Micromolecular Nanoreactors, Biomicromolecular Nanoreactors. These techniques hold many unique advantages and nanoreactors can be applicable in industrial processes. F
