Abstract:
A discrete hexagonal metallacycle decorated with multiple amide groups and long hydrophobic alkyl chains was constructed via [3+3] coordination-driven self-assembly, from which the ordered nanofibers and stimuli-responsive supramolecular gels were successfully obtained via hierarchical self-assembly.
