A carboxylic acid appended naphthalenediimide (NDI) derivative exhibits hydrogen-bonding-mediated, lamellar-type, self-assembly in the nonpolar solvent methyl cyclohexane (MCH). Such a self-assembled material shows bright and almost pure white-light emission in contrast to the blue-emitting monomeric NDI building block. For more information see the Communication by S. Ghosh and M. R. Molla on page 1290 ff.
