Abstract
Metal oxide nanotubes can be classified into single-crystal nanotubes and polycrystalline nanotubes. In the most cases, the single-crystal nanotubes have layered structure, where the metal oxide elementary layer of the layered structure is rolled into the nanotubular structure. This suggests that if a metal oxide can form layered compounds easily, its single-crystal nanotube could be expected. For the manganese oxide, many kinds of layered compounds have been reported, and the layered manganese oxides show excellent host–guest reactivities [1]. Their host–guest reactions have been applied to the development of new soft chemical processes for the preparation of new compounds and nanomaterials [2].
