67. 1b-d are not soluble in the mixed solvent of p-xylene and 1-propanol but form precipitates. From this fact, it is reasonable to deduce that 1a-d coassemble to form gels.

70. As one of the referees pointed out, the suggested coassembly of 1a-d should lead to assemblies with a random distribution of the four units, and consequently many different decay pathways are likely to exist, instead of a "clean" decay channel to the lowest energy state of 1d.
71. We have found that when N,N′-di-n-butyl-1,7 -bis(4-tert-butyl- phenoxy)-3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic diimide (compound 4 without the cholesterol group shown in the Supporting Information) was added as an energy acceptor, emission from 4 was not intensified as for 1b. This result further supports the view that the structural similarity of the perylene-cholesterol conjugates 1a-d plays an important role in coassembling acceptors and mediating efficient energy transfer.[18]
