Funded Activity Summary

Deconstructing molecular self-assembly by advanced mass spectrometry. This project aims to develop ion-mobility mass spectrometry methods to observe the molecular evolution of model self-assembly reactions with high temporal and structural resolution, and interrogate the intrinsic gas phase functionality of the assemblies themselves, including aggregation, inclusion and disassembly behaviours. Lack of knowledge of reaction intermediates, mechanisms and kinetics hampers the industrial potential of self-assembly to fabricate highly functional materials. This project expects to determine the critical link between the assemblies’ structure and function, and provide the rational framework to optimise and direct synthetic outcomes. This could enable Australian manufacturers to create low-energy production processes of high value commodities.
