Metallo-supramolecular polymers with the incorporation of benzothiadiazole-substituted organoplatinum moiety have been successfully constructed. The designed monomer displays intense fluorescence signals, which are severely quenched upon the supramolecular polymerization process. On–off switching of fluorescence can be further exploited for data security materials in response to the chemical stimuli. Accordingly, the resulting supramolecular polymers can be regarded as a novel and efficient candidate toward information processing applications.
