The authors regret an error in the TEM data in Fig. 3A. During peer review, reviewers requested that the authors include TEM data in their manuscript. As there is no TEM facility in their institution, the authors outsourced the TEM analysis. The authors have provided evidence that they outsourced the TEM analysis and were provided with the image used in Fig. 3A of the original manuscript by a third party. The corrected Fig. 3A is shown below.
The authors regret an error in Section 2.3.5 ‘^1^H-Nuclear magnetic resonance’. In the first sentence, the instrument ‘Agilent 400 MHz FT-NMR spectrophotometer’ should have been written as ‘Agilent 400 MHz FT-NMR spectrometer’. In the second sentence, the solvent used was d-DMSO and not CDCl_3_. The corrected Section 2.3.5 is shown below.
2.3.5. ^1^H-Nuclear magnetic resonance
The instrument used for recording the ^1^H NMR spectrum was an Agilent 400 MHz FT-NMR spectrometer (Agilent Scientific Instruments, Santa Clara, CA, USA) operating at 400 MHz for protons. Samples (6 mg mL^−1^) were first dissolved in d-DMSO by keeping it at 50 °C overnight followed by vortex mixing for several minutes. With the deuterated solvent, i.e., d-DMSO, the sample was scanned in the NMR tubes using tetramethylsilane as an internal standard.
An independent expert has viewed the corrected Fig. 3a and the changes to Section 2.3.5 and confirmed that they are consistent with the discussions and conclusions presented.
The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
