Surfactant assisted self-assembly of zinc 5,10-bis (4-pyridyl)-15,20-bis (4-octadecyloxyphenyl) porphyrin into supramolecular nanoarchitectures

Supramolecular nanocubes, nanorods and microrods have been controllably fabricated by a simple surfactant-assisted solution route using unsymmetrical porphyrin bearing self assembly motifs.
