88. The rosette composed of TDP-lacking M1 and B1 did not elute from the SEC column because it decomposed during the analysis and the resulting components were adsorbed to the column matrix.
89. Similar overestimations have been reported in the SEC analyses of structurally related azobenzene-containing dendrons possessing a large number of long alkyl chains: (a) Yokoyama, S.; Nakahama, T.; Otomo, A.; Mashiko, S. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2000, 122, 3174-4181.

95. Because of the self-aggregation property of B2, the signals of the imide protons (signals k and l) of the residual B2 shifted to low field with its increasing concentration.

99. Zimmerman (ref 16), Reinhoudt, and Fréchet independently reported the supramolecular dendrimers composed of six hydrogen-bonding dendrons: (a) Huck, W. T. S.; Hulst, R.; Timmerman, P.; van Veggel, F. C. J. M.; Reinhoudt, D. N. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. Engl. 1997, 36, 1006-1008.
100. (b) Freeman, A. W.; Vreekamp, R. H.; Fréchet, J. M. J. Polym. Mater. Sci. Eng. 1997, 77, 138-139. In the former two systems, an increase in the generation of dendrons resulted in a decrease in the stability of the self-assembling dendrimers by gaining a steric interaction between them.
101. Würthner et al. reported the liquid-crystalline bulk materials composed of coaggregates of TDP-attached melamine and merocyanine-type barbiturate, both structurally related to M2 and B2, respectively: Würthner, F.; Yao, S.; Heise, B.; Tschierske, C. Chem. Commun. 2001, 2260-2261. In this case, a linear tapelike assembly was deduced from the XPD studies.
102. One of the reviewers suggested that the present rosette can be called "monodisperse inverse micelles" when taking into account that the exterior alkyl chains are not stretched in an all-transoid conformation.
103. Mammen, M.; Simanek, E. E.; Whitesides, G. M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1996, 118, 12614-12623.
104. The association constant for the melamine-barbiturate complexation has proved to be 2 orders of magnitude lower than that for the melamine-cyanurate complexation: (a) Prins, L. J.; Verhage, J. J.; de Jong, F.; Timmerman, P.; Reinhoudt, D. N. Chem.-Eur. J. 2002, 8, 2302-2313.
105. 3 should be further emphasized when compared with the Whitesides and Reinhoudt's double rosette based on the melamine-cyanurate complexation.

112. An analogous small hypsochromic shift has been reported for dimeric methyl red dyes attached to a single-stranded DNA: Asanuma, H.; Shirasuka, K.; Takarada, T.; Kashida, H.; Komiyama, M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2003, 725, 2217-2223.

114. In this experiment, a small proportion of the intermediate species EZ-M2 for any irradiation time strongly suggests the cooperative E → Z isomerization of the two azobenzene moieties of EE-M2; isomerization of one of the two E-azobenzene moieties promotes subsequent isomerization of another one: (a) Itoho, K.; Masuda, T.; Takei, M.; Sakurai, Y.; Nishigami, M. J. Chem. Soc., Chem. Commun. 1986, 1028-1030.
115. 3, as a result of mitigation of the steric hindrance to solvation.

118. As one of the reviewers pointed out, a rosette might be formed if at least some EZ-M2 molecules are involved in the rosette with ZZ-M2. In other words, ZZ-M2 alone could not form a rosette with B2. This suggestion is fully consistent with the result of the molecular modeling study as well as the result of the phototriggered SEC experiment described below.
119. A similar steric argument was done for the self-assembling dendrimers: see refs 16 and 30.
