A supramolecular aggregation-based constitutional dynamic network for information processing.

ABSTRACT: Concepts and strategies offered by constitutional dynamic chemistry (CDC) hold great promise for designing molecular computing systems adaptive to external environments. Despite demonstrable success in storing and processing chemical information using CDC, further employment of such constitutional dynamic networks (CDNs) for processing more complex digital information has not been realized yet. Herein, we introduced a supramolecular CDN based on the aggregation of cyanine MTC (Agg-CDN), which is composed of four reversibly interconvertible constituents, i.e. monomers, dimers, J-aggregates, and H-aggregates. We demonstrated that the equilibrated Agg-CDN is reconfigurable through constituent exchange in response to well-defined chemical inputs. More importantly, the equilibrate
