Abstract

A simple triethoxysilane appended bis(urea) low molecular weight gelator (LMWG) affords strong gels in organic solvents that are susceptible to fine tuning by anion binding, while the gel structure can be rigidified into a porous hybrid polymer material by hydrolysis of the triethoxysilane end groups.
