The dynamics of changes in the values of the refractive index of solutions of C60 in xylene at various concentrations has been studied by the refractometric method. It was found that the deviation from the linear form of the dependence of the refractive index on the C60 concentration occurs at a C60 concentration of 1.8 mg/ml. The deviation is associated with the largest number of molecular interactions between C60−C60 and the formation of large nanoclusters on their basis in solution. It was found by the dynamic light scattering (DLS) that the final size of C60 nanoclusters in solution depends on the initial concentration of the solute. A higher initial concentration of C60 leads to the synthesis of nanoclusters with a larger diameter. Using the method of optical spectroscopy, the processes of self-organization of fullerene C60 molecules in a xylene solution in time are studied. The character of stability of synthesized fullerene nanoclusters in solution is discussed. The results obtained are of particular importance for numerous applications of nanotechnology for understanding self-assembly processes and the development of new nanomaterials.

This paper focuses on the synthesis, spectroscopic studies and self-assembly behavior of porphyrin phenyl linked fullerene C60 dyad, which included COOH groups in its fullerene unit so as to promote its adsorption onto TiO2. UV-Vis spectrum and steady-state fluorescence spectrum measurement, showed that the self-assembly of this compound in different solvents with different polarities. The results show that the soret absorption peak slightly blue shifted by 5 nm in acetonitrile and 2 nm in tetrahydrofuran, while the soret peaks in toluene solution was the same as in chloroform. Increasing concentration from 1x10-6 mol/L to 2x10-5 mol/L in chloroform resulted into aggregation, also the slight red shifting on cooling from 900C to 100C was observed from a temperature dependant UV-Vis absorption spectra, thus indicates aggregation. All these features may indicate presence of J-type aggregation happening in 4-methylphenyl-H2porhyrin-fullerene C60-COOH. In addition, the fluorescence of 4-methylphenyl-H2Porhyrin-fullerene C60-COOH has been quenched compared to that of pure 4-methylphenyl-H2porhyrin-OH under the same concentration. Therefore, this novel material design may find good application in photoelectric devices.

Wall morphogenesis in higher plants is a problem still open to controversy. Until now the possibility of a transmembrane control and the involvement of microtubules were mostly envisaged. Self-assembly processes have been observed in the case of walls of Chlamydomonas and bacteria. Spontaneous gelling interactions between xanthan and galactomannan from Ceratonia have been analyzed very recently. The present work provides indications that some processes of spontaneous aggregation could occur in higher plants during the formation and expansion of cell wall.Observations were performed on hypocotyl of mung bean (Phaseolus aureus) for which growth characteristics and wall composition have been previously defined.In situ, the walls of actively growing cells (primary walls) show an ordered three-dimensional organization (fig. 1). The wall is typically polylamellate with multifibrillar layers alternately transverse and longitudinal. Between these layers intermediate strata exist in which the orientation of microfibrils progressively rotates. Thus a progressive change in the morphogenetic activity occurs.
