trans–cis Configuration regulated supramolecular polymer gels and chirality transfer based on a bolaamphiphilic histidine and dicarboxylic acids†
Abstract
Supramolecular polymer gels based on the co-assembly of bolaamphiphilic L-histidine(BolaHis) and dicarboxylic acids are dependent on the molar ratios, flexibility and cis–trans configuration of acid molecules. Thus, oligomerized rigid cis-maleic acid or flexible trans-cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid can form chiral supramolecular polymer gels with L-BolaHis.
