Syringe-pump method to form Fe(tpy)2 CONASH capsules. (a) Schematic of the syringe-pump method. (b) Photograph of Fe(tpy)2 CONASH capsules during the formation in tubes. (c) Photograph of Fe(tpy)2 CONASH capsules in hexane. (d) Size distribution of Fe(tpy)2 CONASH capsules in the tube (solid line) and saucer organic solvents; diethyl ether (two-dot chain line), DCM (dotted line), toluene (broken line), and hexane (chain line). (e) Diameter of Fe(tpy)2 CONASH capsules vs. solubility of water in a given organic solvent; diethyl ether (red), DCM (purple), toluene (orange), and hexane (blue). The diameter in the tube, 843.2 μm is given for comparison.
