Abstract

Abstract : Supramolecular organogels were efficiently formed by mixing an α-cyclodextrin/HFIP solution with 1- or 2-butanol via formation of three-dimensional α-cyclodextrin nanostructures. Abstract : Novel supramolecular organogels were efficiently formed by mixing a 1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 3-hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) solution of α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) with 1- or 2-butanol via the formation of three-dimensional hexagonal nanostructures composed of head-to-tail α-CD channel assemblies. Mixing ( R )- and ( S )-2-butanol with an α-CD/HFIP solution realized ( S )-2-butanol-selective organogel formation.
