Exceptionally small supramolecular hydrogelators based on aromatic–aromatic interactions
We report herein the use of an aromatic-aromatic interaction to produce small molecule hydrogelators that self-assemble in water and form molecular nanofibers in the resulting hydrogels. Among these hydrogelators, a hydrogelator (6) made from a phenylalanine and a cinnamoyl group represents the lowest molecular weight (MW = 295.33 g/mol) peptide-based hydrogelator prepared to date. The supramol...
متن کاملRational design of coumarin-based supramolecular hydrogelators for cell imaging.
A new family of coumarin-based supramolecular hydrogelators without conventional gelating motifs have been designed and synthesized in a one-step reaction. Fluorescent nanofibers self-assembled from these hydrogelators could be used as potential scaffolds for better visualization of the interaction between substrates and cells.
متن کاملSupramolecular Hydrogelators and Hydrogels: From Soft Matter to Molecular Biomaterials
In this review we intend to provide a relatively comprehensive summary of the work of supramolecular hydrogelators after 2004 and to put emphasis particularly on the applications of supramolecular hydrogels/hydrogelators as molecular biomaterials. After a brief introduction of methods for generating supramolecular hydrogels, we discuss supramolecular hydrogelators on the basis of their categori...
متن کاملSupramolecular hydrogelators of N-terminated dipeptides selectively inhibit cancer cells.
Consisting of N-terminated diphenylalanine, a new type of supramolecular hydrogelators forms hydrogels within a narrow pH window (pH 5.0 to 6.0) and selectively inhibits growth of HeLa cells, which provides important and useful insights for designing molecular nanofibers as potential nanomedicines.
متن کاملFluorescent Nano pH Indicators Based on Supramolecular Interactions
Highly hydrophilic switchable dyes are widely applied [1] as optical pH indicators. On the other hand, the basic chromophoric structure of such indicators commonly consists of extended olefinic or aromatic structures, where lipophilic properties are dominating [2], and special measures are necessary for solubilisation in water, such as the introduction of a charge and the attachment of hydrophi...
