Abstract
Nanoscale tree-like FeCl 3–S structures have been assembled. Their unique characteristics, based on the high reactivity of FeCl 3 moiety and the branched thread morphology of sulfur moiety, endow them multiple excellent functions, particularly acting as reactive seeds or templates to directly induce organic polymerization reaction and guide the growth of polymer nanofibers. Using the excellent ability of these tree-like nanostructures, we have synthesized long and flexible polycyclopentadiene nanofibers in one-step process. This result may lead to a new technical way to control the formation of organic polymer nanofibers and to tailor the growth of microstructures by using reactive nanostructures as structure-directing objects.
