Mechanochemical approaches are widely used for the efficient, solvent-free synthesis of organic molecules, however their applicability to functional polymers has remained underexplored. In Research Article (e202305783), Carsten Bolm, Andrij Pich, and co-workers developed a free-radical polymerization approach mechanochemically synthesize structurally morphologically well-defined complex macromo...

This paper reports a stimuli-responsive designer supramolecular polymer gel in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO)/water (1:2) based on dipeptide amphiphile and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) The contains caproic acid at the N terminus methyl ester C terminus. From X-ray single crystal diffraction, adopts kink-like conformation. self-assembled to form parallel sheet-like structure stabilized by multiple intermole...
