Facile fabrication of cross-linked vesicle via “surface clicking” of calixarene-based supra-amphiphiles†
Abstract
A dynamic vesicle was constructed by the complexation of (dodecyloxybenzyl)tripropargylammonium and p-sulfonatocalix[4]arene, then the dynamic vesicle was cross-linked by a “click” reaction. The cross-linked vesicle presents improved stability over the dynamic one. Meanwhile, it can be disrupted with specific chemical stimuli to give the controlled release.
