Colloidal Suspension: 132.2 mg of TAM are dissolved in 320 μL of DMSO in a 1.5 mL Eppendorf (3.5 x 10 -4 mols). The solution is added dropwise to 96 mL of a 0.1 м CTAB aqueous solution at 37 ºC under sonication. After a yellow dispersion is observed, 4 mL of an aqueous 0.1 M solution of SDS is added. Lastly, 1 mL of acetic acid glacial is added to the previous solution. Separately, 94 mg of BDA are weighed and dissolved in 200 μL of DMSO in a 1.5 mL Eppendorf (7.0 x 10 -4 mols). The solution is added dropwise to 96 mL of a 0.1 м CTAB aqueous solution at 37 ºC under sonication. After a clear dispersion is obtained, 4 mL of an aqueous 0.1 м solution of SDS are added. Finally, a colorless solution is observed and both solutions are mixed. Consequently, 5 mL of glacial acetic acid are added. The reactions are conducted at 37 ºC for 48 hours. A yellow-orange solution with an increase in turbidity is observed throughout the reaction procedure. Flocculated Powders: In order to isolate the product, 200 mL of ethanol are added to quench the reaction mixture. After 30 min, a yellow precipitate is observed. The precipitate is then isolated by centrifugation for 3 minutes at 11000 rpm and the supernatant is decanted. The product is then redispersed in 30 mL of ethanol. This work-up procedure is repeated 3 times. Elemental analysis: Experimental: C: 75.25 %, H: 5.22 %, N: 6.68 %. Calculated for C41H28N4(H2O)4 C: 75.91 %, H: 5.59 %, N: 8.64 %.
