Photo-modulated supramolecular self-assembly of ortho -nitrobenzyl ester-based alkynylplatinum(II) 2,6-bis( N -alkylbenzimidazol-2'-yl)pyridine complexes

The enhanced supramolecular self-assembly behaviors of photo-caged platinum(II) complexes have been triggered by applying light as the external stimulus. Distinct morphological transformation of the nanoaggregates has been observed in the photo-caged complexes before and after UV irradiation.
