STABILIZATION OF ORGANOGELS AND HYDROGELS BY AZIDE-ALKYNE[2+3] CYCLOADDITION

摘要

Self-assembled gels were modified by the installation of azide and alkyne groups on the gelator and reaction with complementary reagents by the catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. This is the first example of the use of a "click" reaction in such a supramolecular environment, and a new strategy for tuning the properties of gelled materials .
