Submicrosticks versus Submicrohelices by Sonication – Assembly of PdCl 2 Nanoparticles on Those Morphologies

An unprecedented modulation of submicrohelix versus submicrostick morphologies by sonication has been systematically carried out on new propeller‐type tri‐ O ‐isonicotinoylphloroglucinol. The formation and control of uniform submicrohelix and submicrostick morphologies show subtle external sonication media effects. The first control of submicrohelices versus submicrosticks by sonication without any additive or template seems to be a function of conformational isomers. The facile loading of PdCl 2 nanoparticles from K 2 PdCl 4 on the morphologies is a conceptually advanced method of nanoparticle–submicromorphology interaction.(© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
