Controlled assembly of guanosine derivatives in thin films
Langmuir-Blodgett technique is used to create thin films of guanosine derivatives.
We have already established that self-assembly is strongly influenced by the number of lipophylic chains attached to the ribose and presence of ions in the solution. We are now working on manipulation of supermolecular structures in a thin air/water surface layer and preliminary results show that intermolecular interactions in 2D differ signifficantly from the intractions in bulk.
